Best Metal Band.

not like there is much difference between hawthorne heights and metal core
 
eh i think metalcore gets a bad rap because the most faggety (no offense gays) bands get roped in with metalcore like they have anything to do with it.

GOOD metalcore: poison the well, shai hulud, sworn enemy, the devil wears prada, every time i die, killswitch engage, lamb of god, the black dhalia murder, bleeding through, all that remains, as i lay dying, atreyu

BAD metalcore: anything else?
 
I'm not about to argue about metal bands on a drifting forum lol. All you pointed out is something evolving for the better. Depending on situations, in general don't regret what you did in the past, it's what made you who you are now(hopefully for the good lol).

Oh and after Vulgar Display of Power it really pushed them up along side bands that were around like Metallica, Megadeath, Slayer, etc. It just sucked that, like many rock bands, they self-destructed because of drugs, egos, etc. Keep in mind I agree with many of the bands posted here, I enjoy them all :bigthumbu.



I guess Pantera sure does regret it, their old(er) albums aren't even on their official websites discography http://www.pantera.com/releases.htm . It states that Cowboys From Hell was their first album, when it wasn't.

That's their first album, way back from 1983.

I'm not trying to talk shit about one of the best metal bands of all time, I just don't like that they completely forgot about this time in their careers. Like you said "don't regret what you did in the past"
 
Yeah, I see what your saying. On the whole 1st album thing I guess it depends on what they mean. If they meant 1st ever album then yeah your right but if it means 1st successful album or major-label debut then Cowboys From Hell is correct, I mean damn just the title is badass lol. They should've been more clear because the rest of the albums listed were well known.

If you read up in some books they sorta talk about how Pantera was at a crossroads and decided to revamp who they were and went that current way.

Yup, thats around the time Phil joined and the rest is well. . .history.
 
Avenged Sevenfold was metal, along the way they saw the light($$$) and started making albums like this one.

Their best selling album to date, and the reason I don't listen to them anymore.

LMFAO!!!! dude your 100% hit the NAIL on the FUCKING HEAD! A7X used to be great until they turned into fucking sellouts! Awakening the Fallen is their greatest CD.... other than that A7X is poo poo now.
 
Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Slayer, pantera = real bands now days all you get a is a bunch of screaming fag holding one chord and banging their hair... there is only one band who owns all bands.... and thats LED ZEPPELIN.... listen to Achilles last stand and you will see whats to play one song for 13 minutes without missing a beat..

I totally disagree with that. Yeah, the new bands scream and whatnot, but if you look at the guitar riffs, they are fucken blazing fast and complicated. Listen to Between The Buried and Me. IMO, they have some genious shit. All That Remains also has good guitar riffs and solos. The Human Abstract also kills. You just gotta look past what's popular. I respect your opinion of the older bands though, although they are not my preference.

Dude look at dragonforce... and their guitar player they are both great musicians but all their songs sound the same... this goes to pretty much every shredder out there.... The thing i do admire about the new metal bands is the fact that they are including solos... something that almost died in the past 10 years. I do like some of the stuff out there but like i said before, long live the old bands....

Notice I never mentioned Dragonforce. I don't like them. Totally unoriginal. Yeah, their guitars are nuts, but still nothing that makes me say, "Wow, that is great music right there."
 
I dont know, modern metal has lost its rebellious attitude especially in the mainstream crowd
 
Slipknot.....im a fan of bass, and in my car slipknot sounds insane. That doube bass pedal really kicks hard. If you have bass play the song SIC by slipknot. INSANE!

Yea but, that's how it is in all styles of music. Go to the rap thread and you'll hear guys arguing about mainstream rap vs. underground rap. Mainstream music is about how many albums you sell, which equals to how much money you make. If you want to hear good music, you have search for it. You're not gonna hear it on Y100 or Power96.

Nickelack FTW... NOT!
