What do you want? Good records every 2 years, or evolution? You can't have everything...


You strike me as a very limited person, Metalwarrior.

Not really, because I listen to Iron Maiden, Metallica, Emperor, Darkthrone, Def Leppard, Guns n Roses, Aerosmith, Velvet Revolver, Sepultura, Megadeth, Dream Theater, Rage, AC/DC, Slayer, Grave Digger, Waltari, Judas Priest, Trivium, Bullet for my Valentine, Hypocrisy, Cradle of Filth, Paradise Lost; Dragonforce, Testament and so on. Many different groups with very different styles.

But I don't like if a band changes their style dramatically, because most of them get worse.

Best example: Paradise Lost. From a great Gothic Metal Band to a mediocre Depeche Mode clone. Or Megadeth/Metallica: From great Thrash Bands to mediocre Heavy Rock groups.

There is a reason why all of them are going back to the roots today....


So you like BFMV, but not mid-period Megadeth.

Hum.

Hum.

I have in the past said I like them to girls. Which is justifiable. But no, just hell no to actually liking it.

Actually, Paradise Lost went from an amazing doom band to a pretty good gothic band to utter crap. If they really wanted to go back to their roots, they would put out a kickass doomdeath album, which I doubt will ever happen.

Ladies and gentlemen, MetalWarrior316!


Wish people would lay off of Trivium...absolute #1 example of a band getting trashed because of popularity, preconceptions about them, etc, especially after The Crusade.

I only despise them because they're trying too fucking hard to be Metallica. As I said countless times before, I don't care about a band's popularity. For example, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin are popular. They still have tons of merchandise and the like. What sets them apart from crap-acts like Trivium and Bullet For My Valentine, is that they deserve this popularity.

BFMV are an emo band who don't play emo music. I quite like some of their stuff.

New song called "Heroes of our Time" posted on their MySpace.

http://www.myspace.com/dragonforce

Sounds exactly like "Inhuman Rampage", but not bad.

I don't know who the fuck they are, I listened to one of their song when i was pissed drunk and that was it... The name always made me not want to look for more...

Sorry but there are far better bands with far better band names... for example: Cock and Ball Torture

You're so, so damn wrong it's not funny. You're wronger than Christianity. You're wronger than Islamic fundamentalism. You're wronger than Hitler, you are. If you and Hitler were in a balloon and I had one gun with two bullets I'd shoot you in each kneecap and laugh. If the Green Goblin was hanging you and Hitler over a river and I could only save one of you, I'd save you and then drop you myself. If Jesus himself came down and saw what you just posted he would weep and then hang himself.

Fridge, you're wrong. And your spelling sucks.

Both BFMV and Dragonforce suck in amounts that are far beyond mortal comprehension.

I think that Bands like Trivium are the reason, why old Thrash Bands go back to their roots. Trivium and BVMV brought the solos and thrash riffs back to the mainstream audience.
