You're lucky, you've got Mendeed. I've yet to har a good Edinburgh metal bnd.
You're both wrong. They're shite.
Around The Fur is by far in a way musically the best album and has the two best songs the Deftones ever wrote, My Own Summer and Be Quiet and Drive.
Sorry, try again. Digital Bath is the best song they ever wrote.
Engine No.9 :yes: :thumb:
You've obviously misinterpreted what I wrote. I didn't say all metal is shit, I said how do people listen to the the stuff with all the screaming in it.
it's just different strokes for different folks. i used to think like this, until i discovered Refused.
They are so far away from Metal it's not even funny.
I think that whenever I hear that "Hey Micky" song. All they do is scream all the way through as well.
Talking of that shit hole, I'll be through there on Sunday seeing Combichrist.
My reply still stands. You're still writing off every band with "screaming" because of one.
EDIT: As for it being inaudible; you obviously heard a shit band then. Alot of post-hardcore has "screaming", but also regular singing as well as melodic guitar work.
One of my mates is going to that. I was meant to be but I'm jobless and skint with a servere drug addiction. It's at the Liquid Rooms eh?
Linkin Park are Alt Rock/Nu Metal.
Yeh, and nu-metal is absolutely nothing like metal.
I can think of a few I've listened to off the top of my head that have had screaming in it, not just one band in a pub. Slipknot, Kittie, Korn, Behexen, King Diamond, Deicide, Skid Row.
Nu-Metal is a Metal sub genre, might be nothing like it but it's still Metal.
Slipknot suck, Kittie suck, Korn I've never been keen on, Behexen & Deicide I like but I can see why people wouldn't (I know alot of metal fans that don't), King Diamond is oooold school and a little "odd", Skid Row is glam rock.
None are really good examples.
Korn are amazing. Jonathan Davis DOESN'T just scream, I have every Korn album and he actually has an amazing, unique voice and uses a very varied vocal range. When I used to be really into metal, Korn were like my favourite band ever to exist! I still like them alot, they're still my favourite metal band even though I don't listen to metal that much anymore.
Slag off metal but not Korn!
And we're saying that it's only a very small part of metal that involves screaming. Several of the world's best popular vocalists of the past 30 years have been metal singers.
Oh yes.
FNM, Bungle and Fantomas.
End of discussion :thumb:
You're forgetting Tomahawk and Peeping Tom.
The PT album is a fucking classic. Pretty much everything he touched is.
It's a shame that the man is an absolute cock by all accounts
Perhaps in time, we will realise that Bungle was about a century ahead of its time. California and the eponymous are two records of absolute genius.
Bungle at the Bizarre Fest from the California Tour - this is an incredible gig.
