Guess what guys? Nobody cares about your opinion. No, really.

The starter of this thread was bad enough. We don't need a bunch of metal elitists telling everybody what to listen to in addition.

I'll listen to AILD because I love how their music sounds. You have fun listening to Death or whatever else it is you like. I really don't care, and I don't think the OP does either. The fact that you are so determined to deprive people of something they enjoy is mind-boggling to me.

I can drink to this, though the OP certainly isn't helping the perception of them.

For the record, I do think both sides are wrong; the OP, and the "haterz" :)

I've only heard 94 Hours, and that was over a year ago. My friend goes on about how much he loves the drummer.

There's a BIG difference between influence and stealing. These riffs are taken directly from the Swedes, not somewhat like them. If they had original material, they'd be listenable.

I listen to a number of bands, including ones that you would call better. I still like AILD for their riffs. I will admit that without those riffs they would suck (see Chimaira and Norma Jean).

Ever considered writing a book?

Anyway, my last 2 cents on this... I think it's ultimately pointless to attempt to change what someone likes, because it almost always fails. And if you do want to open them up to something new, there is definitely a wrong way of doing it. An example would be "____ sucks... listen to ___, much better". That already gives the listener a biased point of view, and they will attempt to find ways that it is not better.

Though I think it's perfectly fine if someone wants to voice their dislike of a band/artist, which is where the OP is at fault... don't just explode on everyone with a negative opinion.

Nobody cares if he likes AILD, and no one's trying to ruin his enjoyment of the band, but if you call any band one of the best ever, you better be able to back it up, or else open yourself up to a verbal s***storm. Freedom of speech is a two-way street.

I feel like I should chip in, offering a somewhat objective opinion of the drumming and vocals that were praised/bashed earlier.
I can see why someone just getting exposed to "extreme music" would be impressed with their drumming, and especially their double bass. But ultimately, it isn't very special in any regard when compared against some of the standards in the extreme music world. Hell, he isn't even the best drummer on AILD's current tour.
The same applies for their live vocals. I've seen quite a few bands live, including AILD twice (they opened for bands I enjoyed). They aren't bad live, but they aren't anything really special either. They're more authentic than some other vocalists (Anders Friden, Laura Pleasents, Trevor Strnad come to mind), but don't have the same energy, stage presence, and power as some others (Angela Gossow, Russell Allen, Randy Blythe).

How come every AILD fan I ever come across thinks that they always have the best taste in music?

Why would anyone think they don't have the best taste in music?

just seems like their fans are more cocky and arrogant, thats all. I mean when I saw them live (with LOG) all the people that were there for AILD didnt give any of the other bands the light of day they just sat outside and talked, untill AILD came on. Even if I dont like a band I will still watch them

Pretty much any band has plenty of fans they wouldn't be proud of. AILD may have more than most, though, but at least they're not as bad as maggots or Juggalos.

afterstasis: That's what happens when this many metal elitists see a topic with the name of a popular metalcore band...in fact, I'm pretty sure most of those posts were in the span of less than an hour.

Guess what guys? Nobody cares about your opinion. No, really.

The starter of this thread was bad enough. We don't need a bunch of metal elitists telling everybody what to listen to in addition.

I'll listen to AILD because I love how their music sounds. You have fun listening to Death or whatever else it is you like. I really don't care, and I don't think the OP does either. The fact that you are so determined to deprive people of something they enjoy is mind-boggling to me.


Cheers!

Not a snob, I'll leave that to Gowie. I have opinions, and opinions are meant to be spread.

How could you listen to a band that doesn't exist, unless you're saying I hate music, which couldn't be further from the truth.

Not here to fight or nothing, but if someone says:

They are a music snob in some sense of the definition

I don't think "quality" of taste in music carries any real weight. Taste is taste. It will be different from yours, but that doesn't make it good or bad.

Funny review; http://www.punknews.org/review/3518

My faovurite bits were 'The excellent music is accompanied by lyrics that are just as good: “94 hours of regret for me to realize what I held / Unfading beauty, not just a face / I held its innocence within my heart, now I won’t let go / The torment of your eyes has awakened my soul.” The lyrics are extremely emotional for a song that is so heavy.'

Also, 'For the remainder of the CD, the songs sound very similar to the first three, which is quite common in the metalcore genre.'

That was the show I was at, it was okay until the singer opened his mouth. It doesn't help that they were following Children Of Bodom (if you don't like them either, keep your opinions to yourself)

I think assuming it's a joke band is a subconscious response to help people avoid coming to terms with the supreme depths of studpidity American kids in the myspace generation are capable of.

In a way it's kind of admirable, they've created something almost Lovecraftian in in incomprehensibility, a lot of death metal bands would kill for that.
