Slayer / Marilyn Manson show? 7/28

[Vince]

Knucklehead knows what he's talking about.

Apparently, I don't know anything about metal.

[AmoebicDysentery]

Oh yeah, Slayer touring with Marilyn Manson is just about the gayest thing I've ever heard of.

[Strange]

Grunge...alternative...whatever. not the point. I'm not a nirvana fan by any means but I don't think they suck. I don't own any of their albums, but I give them props just for sending hordes of buttrock bands back to delivering fucking pizzas.

Regarding his motivation for suicide, all I can say is that if I was married to Courney Love, I'd blow my brains out too.

Now, to tie this back in, let me get your opinions on this: In the original inside cover of Divine Intervention...do you guys think that's Cobain's suicide pic? 'Cause it sure fuckin' looks like him.

Or do i sense some sarcasm.

I'm not so sure about that. Legendary doesn't always mean good. Nirvana is legendary, but their music sucks. They're incredibly influential but they wrote some pretty bad music. I can see bands like Korn still being relevant 20 years from now, unfortunately.

On the plus side of things though, I can also see bands like Tool and 311 being called "legendary" in a few decades. Not all popular music is total shit, just 98% of it.

I don't mean to sidetrack this thread even further, but, if you haven't heard it...listen to Nirvana's In Utero album, or at least maybe give it another spin. The songs are catchy and heavy as hell (for the most part). Dave Grohl's drumming is absolutely pounding and Steve Albini's production captures it perfectly. That was their last album...looking back it's incredible to me (especially now) that a band so hugely popular as them could make an album so raw in the PEAK of their popularity. I listened to this nonstop in my walkman when it came out and I still think it rules.

i agree about nirvana. i think they were badass. i've been listening to nevermind and in utero a lot lately. both are great albums. i've always loved dave grohl's drumming and i thought cobain was pretty damn clever with his songs.

they are "legendary" for many reasons. they were a huge impact on the world musically and socially. thats what defines legendary.......not technical ability(which really means dick when it comes to great music).

[Vince]

Right on blaze. Dave Grohl was a huge influence on me growing up.

I dont know how this thread has digressed or whatnot, but if you call yourself a metalhead and dont own "Reign in Blood" , your just pretending.

I think that Grohl is pretty damn solid, and pretty creative for that kind of music. Were it not for him, Nirvana would have been hardly noteworthy...let alone legendary. I also enjoy the Probot album quite a bit.

Definitely not going to argue the homosexuality of the Foo Fighters though.

meh,I think even with him,nirvana sucked.. without them they would have still sucked,they just wouldent have a drummer.

Thanks for supporting my opinion.

I don't support your opinion. The guy can sing.

Yeah. Badly.

Mmmmm, he sounded fine at their Masquerade show. I was watching and listening closely since there had been a lot of discussion about Tony's voice in a live setting, but it was a good show.

You are, of course, entitled to your opinion abou his voice and his accent. I'll recuse myself since I'm understandably a bit biased.

As for Sonata Arctica being 'pop' in Finland....well, sure. Finns aren't brainwashed sheeple like most Americans are.
