I heard this from a friend who is a massive Slayer fan. He felt very disturbed, like he just got anally violated. He kept saying "How the hell could he like them?" the whole day.


Kerry King has also sung praises of Chimaira, a truly shit band. He said they remind him of Slayer in the early days.


Chimaira are a million times better than Trivium. They're one of the better bands to come from the metalcore explosion.


+1.

Among all the metalcore bands, Chimaira are the only ones I can tolerate. I like their 3rd album, which is a self-titled I think. But looking back at the previous two, I can't stand the clean vocals part. But Zad's right, they're better than Trivium. I even have higher regards for them over Lamb of God.

Same here, all I have is the self titled, and I really enjoyed it. They're probably on the same level as Lamb of God for me, not that I care that much though.

I have actually reviewed their last two albums, guise. Resurrection is good, not as good as s/t but an ambitious and confident modern thrash album.

True, but I heard Psychosocial lately and I have to admit, I like it.

Then again, Watershed destroys anything Slipknot could ever hope of making, so it's incredible how Opeth didn't get mentioned at all (I believe).

Sorry, didn't remember and I didn't check the lists again.
