1- The Mars Volta "Frances The Mute" the best progressive record of 2005 so far... and a real delight for those into "different" music !
2- Fantômas "Suspended Animation" another frenzy album from Patton, Lombardo & co... maybe their best...
3- Avenged Sevenfold "City Of Evil" talkin' of metal, this is what falls closest to excellence... :twisted:
4- Ani Di Franco "Knuckle Down" folk, jazz and an angel's voice
5- Gorillaz "Demon Days" even better than the first one, I don't really mind the rap bits.... :roll:
yeah, I know, it's not very metal but then good music can't be 100% from the metal scene ! does it ? :roll:
WHO?
Well...
Mars Volta - annoying remnant of At The Drive-In
Avenged 7 Fold - biggest posers in the history of music
Ani DiFranco - hellish politicool harlot
Gorillaz - Emperor's new clothes garbage
All IMO, of course. :twisted:
Mars Volta - heard (part of a track) and it sounded very annoying, esp. the vocals. Don't know if I could stand a whole 15+mins of it.
Avenged Sevenfold - I really, really, really hate these guys. Is it not enough punk has to be ruined by the poppers without them fucking metal up as well? Stefan, if you like hardcore mixed with heavy metal try a band called Byzantine (can't find a website, but there's a track on this month's Terrorizer mag( :twisted: )), but for all our sakes stop encouraging young, impressionable teens to listen to such rubbish.
Gorillaz - Not heard much (what I've heard is very average stuff), but I generally avoid on principle alone any band that uses a 'z' instead of an 's'.
Ani DiFranco - never heard of.
Fantomas - Awesome, waiting to get 'Suspended Animation'
