The only 'spirit' Sid Vicious had was what he hosed down his throat every night. As I said, there's a difference between basic skill and utter incompetence - Steve Jones only started playing guitar 3 months before he joined the Pistols. He put in a power of work every day to be in the position to record in a band. Vicious was just there to be on the stage, take the drugs and shag the groupies. In essence, he was the first hair metal star, except an even worse musician. All this 'spirit of punk' bullshit is just there to mask what a worthless human being he was


Like it or not, they were huge, and not because of the music. And no-one's denying what kind of person he was...

Ah, but they succeeded despite their lack of skills. Very good songwriters, even if the actual execution was crap.

Says the Power Metal fan.

Yes he does. For you see: Magnus Rosen of HammerFall, Marko Paasikoski of Sonata Arctica, Patrice Geurs of Rhapsody - all bass players who can actually play the bass. All musicians who have worked hard to be where they are today.


Sonata Arctica is a talented young band,but they're starting to act like rock stars(just like Edguy,but more talented than Edguy);Rhapsody is the band that makes me proud not to be italian;and finally HammerFall...well,let's just say they have fun,and that's all that counts(just like Sex Pistols,but with less attitude).

conidering your taste (not so much extreme metal, isn't it ?) I'll advice you to go with Mastodon - Leviathan over Nile...


Ehhh, not really a big fan of most extreme metal (though I do like some of it). Nile is one of those exceptions, though.

Well, I guess judging from these poll results, Black Seeds of Vengeance it is. Though if I have any extra cash, I will get one of the other albums I listed.

I wouldn't recommend Nile to my worst enemy...but if you like LOG, Palaces is definitely their best. And Leviathan is...well you need it. I had a mixed reaction to it as an album, because I don't think it flowed well among other things, but the songs are generally fantastic and much more special than the rest of the stuff on that list.
