Guitar, power chord whore for your rhythm section, and the use of big E repetitively works, too, and make sure the rhythm section completely overpowers whatever solo the lead can put out, because everyone knows having a lead that's actually hearable is TOTALLY untr00. Bass, one Note, really fast. Vocalist, kill your vocal chords, make every word you say scratchy, and either yell at the top of your lunges or from the bowels.

General, yes, but for generalization, general statements work. There are always exceptions, but generally, death metal all sounds the same. The same goes for each and every type of music that exists. The majority of it sounds the same and is completely unoriginal, and therefore sucks. but there are a select few that stand a few heads above.

Now, if you expect to get another response out of me, stop using your little "I'm repeating myself through numbering statements" method, and actually say something worthwhile, like WHY you dislike something, instead of just saying "it's gay, it's over rated, I don't like it".


Now, I'm not defending that assbag, but generalizing death metal blows. I could list quite a few DM bands that superceed those generalizations, but I'll save it because I'm quite sure you're too close-minded to attempt to listen to them.

Now, as for Pink Floyd: They were what they were. They were one of the originators of that acid-induced rock. They're overrated, but certainly not for bad reasons. Tribute bands blow, they just kill the legacy that Floyd had (and still has). What I'm saying is that they win, if you're into classic rock. Some people aren't. I'm not really into classic rock, but I still occasionally give Meddle or WYWH or The Wall a listen. I respect what Floyd did.

If you'll read, you'll note that I said that there are always exceptions. I rather like Opeth and Dark Tranquility. I'm generalizing the standard for what the "death metal" sound is. Don't think you can predict me, friend. I have no quarrel with you, and you should know that I do like some death metal, I'm just making a point that there is a standard for what death metal sounds like, and, therefore, death metal is not any greater than any other genre by default (which dickwad contends).

I'm not trying to quarrel, I'm just saying that there's more to DM than that. Cynic, Atheist, Human or later-era Death, Hypocrisy, Obituary, etc etc.

And I've said that there are exceptions (repeatedly, in fact). I've heard a few songs from Death from Symbolic and The Sound of Perseverance. Good stuff, but, as I keep saying, there are exceptions. Your average death metal band sucks just as much as your average power metal band, or your average thrash metal band.

So if your intent was something as simple and generally understood as that, why bother making the statement? That's just like saying, "bad music sucks." To all the casual, jack-of-all-trades listeners, average bands won't do it, and thus will sound pretty bad. That's generally how "average" works, so there's no need to point it out, especially in a discussion involving people who generally know what they're talking about.

Integrate Satan is probably just one of those assfucks who used to listen to Madonna, The B-52s, Cyndi Lauper, REM, and any other pop that he came into contact with. But then one day he realized he was getting a little faggish, so he asked someone to point him to the "evilest" most hardcore music, and has since faithfully stuck to that genre. Once in a while he comes into contact with a metal connoisseur and takes bits of information from him regarding various other talented musicians in the metal industry, and claims the opinion as his own so that he can try to hold a reasonable debate, or troll-fest, with faceless entities on the internet to give his baseless existence some gratifying substance.

and exactly what are you trying to prove? you're just some assfuck who puts absolutely nothing that pertains to music at all into a discussion based on music. You just want to be percieved as someone who is so completely unbiased that you could possibly do no wrong, you want to believe that you're opinions supercede everyone else's because they're so just and fair, taking no sides on an opinion because you're scared to be disproved, taking the easy way out by siding with everyone, having no musical preferences except for the preferences of whoever you're holding a conversation with, you're a pussy, and guess what, you're shit stinks too so get the fuck off your high horse, take part in a real discussion, stop hiding behind this fake persona of an omnicient being that has such a grasp on the concept of open-mindedness that whatever you say has to be right, your so caught up in yourself I wouldn't be suprised if you had piles of your own shit laying around your house considering you love the smell of it so fucking much, as far as me holding a debate, I'm the one who makes the debates and all you put into them is completely irrelevant, arrogant, stupid-ass unbiased opinions about other people's opinions with no real opinion on the actual subject for yourself, try going to a forum for smug assholes that love the smell of their own assholes and stop posting in the MUSIC forum unless you have something to say about MUSIC

And for a double post, before the thread gets locked I hope.

One of my SGTs loves him some death metal. And he likes to play it very loud. So when he moved to a new neighborhood, he decided to cut the volume a tad until he was sure about the neighbors since his new house is only like 100 ft from his neighbors on both sides. The next morning a man and a woman, the man in a preacher's collar, came up to him before he came in to work, and asked him if he had Jesus in his life. He replied that he DID believe in God, though he was estranged from church. He then asked what prompted this visit, and he found out that they wre his next-door neighbors. And that he was listening to "the music of hate." :O Now, he's a nice guy so he didn't immediately crank his speakers to 11 when he got back home, mostly because he doesn't want them exorscising his house....:O

Since you obviously barely read any shit I post, I can't take you seriously. Hell, I've never been able to. Everything you write is so filled with trite over-generalized arrogant crap, I can hardly dig through it with a shovel. At least I have the humility to recognize that some other people might be coherent and intelligent enough to form valid opinions. I'm balanced, you're way off in the loony ward.
