Randomly Crap Out Your Opinions Thread

I know I am going to get beat for this but..

I listened to Opeth, and I don't get why every one loves them; To me they just seem like an ordinary ProgDeath/Melodic Death metal band.

Also the same goes for Tool and Muse; I just don't get why EVERYONE hails them as gods..

And I also think that Metallica's version of Remember Tomorrow is better than Opeth's(And not just because I love Metallica. Mainly because Opeth's version sounds almost the same as IM's but sped up, and Metallica add their own twist on their version)

Muse; I just don't get why EVERYONE hails them as gods..

Well, Muse is a modern band that can play live, and Matt Bellamy is an extremely good vocalist.

I'm watching the show Supergroup right now, and I have new-found respect for Jason Bonham. He's the only one who showed self control and didn't seem like a drunken, washed up, has-been.

I guess that to me Matt Bellamy just sounds to much like Thom York..

I appreciate Muse's musical abillities but I just don't hear anything unique or special for them to be called the greatest modern band.

Well in Smash no, you're not.

Musically, it's just too broad of a thing to be better than somebody.

Bring forth the grim and frostbitten!!!!

I don't know... even if, say, a metal fanatic listens to exclusively metal, he's still probably "better" musically than a casual music fan who downloads a few rap singles every couple of weeks on itunes, listens to them, and repeats the process.

I saw Foreigner earlier this year, and Jason Bonham was with them. Everyone was looking at the flashy singer, but I couldn't help but look at him... he was very good. Had a lot of John-esque fills, and even had a solo in the vein of Moby Dick.

I dislike Children of Bodom and find the entire genre of Melodeath to be boring.

The Motor City Madman wasn't those three.....


He was hilarious though.

Well I meant it as somebody who has knowledge to metal exclusively will have less of an understanding with somebody who has more of something like grunge, prog, blues, ect. I see your point though.

We're talking about Mastodon right?


EDIT : BEST THING EVER

The album "Enter the Grave" by Evile is the best Slayer album released in the past 15 years

[Rockbandfan23467]

^In a simmilar vein:

Appetite for Destruction by Guns 'N' Roses is the greatest Aerosmith album ever.

Number of the Beast is the best Metallica album ever.
Sucks that Metallica wouldn't put any of their songs on RB2

(Seriously, someone said they thought Run to the Hills was by Metallica)

Also, whenever people don't like bands I like, and show off rock bands I don't despise but think are just a tad "overliked" (ie: Coldplay, Switchfoot, other boring Alternative bands whose talent I respect but could never really enjoy), I openly tell them that I think that's fine if we don't have the same musical tastes, but on the inside secretly believe we can never be friends, and that my music is so much better than you.

PS: I have the best musical taste ever.
