nightwish are pop here because they're POPular. And I hate it. Makes me feel guilty whenever I listen to any (not often).

Yeah, I was about to say that...I think of Nightwish like metal with opera singing. Or something...

Way to go, Capt. Obvious. :lol: Yeah, Nightwish is, in fact, metal with opera singing, but if I had to label them it would simply be symphonic metal.

And I'm loving the new Trivium song. I don't know, that definitely sounds like some pretty good thrash to my ears...I kind of miss Travis' excellent drumming from Ascendancy, which he seems to have dropped for a more traditional thrash-style.

I would say it's more traditional 80's metal than thrash, but there was a fine line between some 80's metal bands and thrash (Forbidden, Heathen, etc.), so I don't think that label is too far fetched.

See, I've always thought that kind of thinking is foolish...when someone says "This song is good, but it gets played on the radio" like that somehow detracts from the song. Of course radio music sucks, because if good music gets played on the radio people hold something against it...

Well, that's retarded. Listen to what you like, dude. Fuck what people think.
