That was pretty indepth. Still, he forgot to mention how Godsmack completely reinvented the scene in the 80s.

He has some really fantastic points.

Like how Lamb Of God released 7 albums and how they all would belong on any metalhead's list of great metal.

Fantastic points.

He forgot about the death metal trend that Slipknot started in the late 90s.

Of the many bands he cited, only Lamb of God makes my day. Would somebody do me a favour and shoot this guy?

Atreyu have done a song called "Bleeding Mascara"? A song with a title like that came from a man?

Who's their target audience then?

So, this got me curious about what else these guys may have come up with... These guys have songs called -

    Five Vicodin Chased With a Shot of Clarity
    Demonology and Heartache
    Nevada's Grace (ey? Does this mean Nevada's full of satanists?)
    Lip Gloss and Black
    Tulips Are Better (???)
    Our Sick Story (Thus Far)
    Right Side of the Bed (and the rest of their stuff seems to be about self-harming, death or vampires?)


Man, I think I found me a new band to support.

One of the rawest, loudest bands, Killswitch Engage borders on the death-metal genre but still brings great guitar riffs to the music scene.

Oh thank God.

I think every band he listed is signed to Roadrunner. Seems a little convenient.

Just the mentioning of Atreyu has caused me to break out in hives.

What a truly, truly awful band they are.
