Some people are drama queens. Arch Enemy no matter how badly they've begin to suck don't dress like Dolly Parton's winter stampede special.

Arch Enemy was always overrated and they definitely suck real hard. I'll take some crossdressing guys in corpsepaint over Arch Enemy any day. I think I'd rather listen to Pearl Jam or some lame shit over Arch Enemy.

Oh fuck off. They are pretty well known among the newer bands.


I never heard of Canopy until I came to this site, and I've never once seen them mentioned to me or in passing while on other metal sites and metal review sites. Also any metalhead I've ever met has never mentioned them, although I guess I've never bothered to ask.

That's just my personal experience, though. Maybe I'm out of the loop.

Not to add to the argument, but Pearl Jam are better than Arch Enemy anyways and are not at all 'lame shit'. It is YOU who are etc, etc.

I'm just not sure about that. Yeah, there was a lot of buzz going in with Mike Amott's post-Carcass band, but the Johan Liiva years were fine. I actually think their second album, Stigmata, is one of the best from the traditional melodeath scene.

Arch Enemy's first three albums were great melodeath, Stigmata indeed being their best. They started sucking when Angela joined if you ask me.

I wouldn't say that they sucked at all - their popularity turned people off, and they reacted to that popularity by getting more modern and catchier, hardly the only bands in the metal scene to fall prey to that sin. In terms of writing good metal, I have hope for them, where I think Dimmu have vanished up their own behinds. And I'm a Solefald fan, so I'm good at distinguishing genius from geni-arse.

I'm glad I can only muster enough enthusiasm to listen to A list death metal bands, so I don't have to get involved in this argument.

Adveser is a professional death metal listener just as Akercocke makes him an expert on black metal. :lol:

I listen to a lot of death metal, just not a whole lot of bands. Black Metal I could care less about outside of only a handful of bands.
