So I was reading reviews for Vital Remains - Dechristianize on Metal Archives and this one dude was talking about the melodic leads. He then went on to say this:


Quote:
“Melody”, for those of you unfamiliar with the word, is an important musical concept first invented by Iron Maiden some time in the early to mid eighties, and later perfected by Swedish bands in the late nineties. It mainly involves heavily-produced lead guitars playing sugary sequences of notes and simple harmonies, with special attention towards making sure that everyone in your potential audience, including anyone who might be afflicted with severe brain damage, will have no difficulty whatsoever following your music. That’s what I’ve managed to infer by reading the copy generated by other metal reviewers and label promo departments, anyway.



:roll:

There's quite a few of those morons in MA, though I'm not so sure about this one. He sounds like a funny guy, I loled.

He said he was being sarcastic but if you read the next paragraph he talks about how the leads in VR aren't that great. Then something about brutal death metal moving into Gothenburg territory. So.....he's a moron.

Metal Archives is full of morons. I read a random thread on the forum sometimes, just to increase my blood pressure.

The MA forum makes the Metal Crypt forum look intelligent. And that says a lot.

There's forums there? Thanks for the warning. I generally just go there when I'm looking to find something out about a band I don't know. The band stuff is generally accurate.
