drill down and you will see that those who can actually stomache an entire sex pistols album are very limited

and limited to fans of fashion and not music

hole, death metal, rap, are other examples of people (fans of) who are not actually into the music itself rather the image and the fashion

You're wrong about death metal - and which genre of death metal are you referring to exactly?

Really? And which form of DM are you referring to? They're all very different. I assume by making a comment like that you understand the genre and are aware of the various styles? So are you talking Gore (Cannibal Corpse, Mortician)? Melodic Death (Dark Tranquility, In Flames)? Doom (My Dying Bride, Cathedral). Perhaps Black Metal bands with death influences as well (Immortal)?

Incidentally, Cannibal Corpse are crap but I can't believe you've never heard of them.

i never heard of them or any of the others you mentioned

thats probably because they are quite awful

Oh okay, so by this I can naturally assume the following:

A band is sh*t if ...

a) You've never heard of them
b) They're heavy
c) You don't like the vocalist

Yep, that clears it up for me - clearly the three most important factors when determining the quality of any band :shock:

all that death metal crap sounds the same


b) They're heavy

no

i like heavy music so long as it retains melody and has a point and has variation


c) You don't like the vocalist

hey i dont like aretha franklin but i sure as hell aint gonna call her a crap singer

johnny rotten on the other hand....

So you started a thread inferring that as a musician your opinion was more valid than a Sex Pistols fan yet are now arguing against a genre you have no knowledge of and clearly haven't heard.

A bit ironic really ...

I don't expect you to like DM but to proclaim that it's sh*t when you're not qualified (ie. you haven't heard or even heard of these bands or sub-genres) to do so is ludicrous!!!

:roll:
