Lyrics were better in the older days of metal, nowadays a song cannot be aired if it has even a mention considered politically incorrect.

You don't even smurfing know what metal is if you are saying the bands I listen to or post about are "hard rock." Please. How are "crushing points" going to get me banned? They will get my point across if people will listen to them.

Lyrics don't mean if the band is good, and if the band is bad they don't matter anyways.

I dont really rate a band on vocals and lyrics, I think im more of looking for the instrumental side of bands.

Thus my point is: System of a down totally suck.

So if a band mumbles the world blah for 5 minutes with kickass guitar that's talent.

Metal is a genre of music, what do you think? Your views belong to yourself don't shove it down people's throats because it gets you nowhere.

The Old stuff obviously kills the new stuff, so you prefer singing and pointless lyrics with good music? then listen to instrumental not songs!

You should seriously stop talking about something you don't have the slightest clue about. If you only judge a band by the lyrics, you could just as well just go read a book. You should go listen to some Nile, Bloodbath or Behemoth and then explain how they are less powerful, less aggressive and less talented than your favourite thrash bands.

Why do you think I listen to Metallica? Good lyrics, good music.
The next person to say anything like that to me again is getting reported it sucks and gets you nowhere.

I'm not going to tolerate being flamed and accused of bull.

Then maybe you should stop posting it.

wrong move.

It's obvious what the superior genre is so there aint a point in this thread.

It's becoming infested with trolls.

They're less powerful because I don't feel any kind of connection with the music, less aggressive because anger without direction is pointless, and less talented because I find the music inferior, therefore they are not particularly talented at making music I enjoy.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to jump into some sort of flame war, but if someone thinks Linkin Park is the greatest metal band ever to roam the Earth it's not like you've got anything to dispute that with but your own opinion. It galls me to hear Kurt Cobain called the greatest guitarist that ever lived, but if you go by the amount of people that enjoy his riffs over the technicality then he ranks pretty highly.

This is stopping now.

Crushed Hope: If you I see you imposing you views in every thread that has anything to do with metal music again, I swear that I will ban you, especially if you keep your attitude. I really couldn't give a crap if you are actually correct or not. If you can't get your point across in a respectalble manner, don't post.

jrgen: In this thread you weren't far behind CH with your sarcasm.
