You don't even like "Sabotage?" What the hell.

I have to agree with Wesley on the Beastie Boys.
After thinking about it for a couple of hours, yeah, I guess I shouldn't have even joked around about it. This place, as well as others, have argued about much sillier things.Originally Posted by Raistlin
Radiohead is overrated
Beastie Boys are just awful.
This is the message board that has virtual death matches over pop vs. soda and 30 vs. 50 vs. 100 posts-per-page. What else did you expect?
I guess I'll stop being a curmudgeon and join in on the fun!
*I actually prefer newer Nine Inch Nails material to Pretty Hate Machine. Don't get me wrong, my favorite NIN stuff is from the 90's, and PHM is still has CLASSIC songs on it, but there are also songs that seriously didn't age well and drag down the album today. Especially "That's What I Get." Ugh.
*I know no one gives a **** about Marilyn Manson anymore, but I am still a fan. In fact, the latest record (Born Villain) was a great return to form...for the most part. Anyway, former fans/people in general usually complain that Manson's sound and lyrics have suffered in quality over the years. I agree to that to an extent, but if you examine the newer records more closely, one can actually argue that not enough has changed with the band. I believe that people don't realize that they simply got used to the way the band does things, concerning former fans. That and Manson wrote himself into a corner for relying on a shocking image too much, thus running the band into the ground. As a result, I feel many people have missed out on great Manson material, if you are into such a sound.
*I liked 10,000 Days better than Ænima.
*In terms of almost any band in almost any metal genre, I actually like it when bands get more melodic and write more complex music. Want to know why that is? Because in most cases the band is getting better. Sorry, not every metal band sounds better if they sound like it was recorded from an 80's boom box inside a garbage can.
*I rarely, RARELY believe anyone that says they liked a band's first album the best. In most cases they are trying to be HIPSTER GARBAGE!!!
*I don't really care for My Chemical Romance, but I like their first album. You could say I like their first album the best!
three cheers for sweet revenge is entirely good and in no way is inferior to that mediocre Early Sunsets Over Monroeville crap. you are listening to something incorrectly.
It's been awhile since I listened to either record (I do remember liking "Ghost of You" of off their second album a lot). As I said, though, I am not a fan. It's funny that I just slammed metal fans for not liking rawer sounding stuff, but I guess I just felt that the rougher sound of the first album worked better for MCR's style.
Thank You For The Venom is just great. Helena's fun too.
People don't like the Beastie Boys? If you don't like Paul's Boutique, you don't like hip-hop.
There, I said it.
This thread is making me want to listen to My Chemical Romance.
brb
In terms of overall instrumentation I'd say flat out that it's their best album.
Everybody's looking forward to the weekend (weekend). I don't see how you can't get on board with that!
Hüsker Don'ts.
I think melodic metal takes a band from being only likeable by metalheads to being likeable by anyone.
First albums almost universally do suck.
Did you ever listen to Danger Days? I listened to Three Cheers in high school and didn't like it much, and then I saw the video for "Na Na Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na)" and loved it. The album is actually a concept piece in a Mad Max-ish post-apocalyptic world to make some social commentary. It's pretty great.
I like the rasmus and spent a lot of money going to see them live (and i'm seeing them again in December AND I DONT CARE)
I hate new My Chemical Romance but love the older stuff.
Good metal and good jazz are close to the same thing, but if you mention this in mixed company, feelings get hurt.
fifteen minutes into "neon bible" and i have to recommend that Sam goes to get her ears checked out by a physician
You MONSTERSIn terms of overall instrumentation I'd say flat out that it's their best album.
