i like opeth... and not so much now... but like a year or two ago...a large percentage of people responded as if they were the only band that mattered... that they were the band that would define modern metal... much as say black sabbath is viewed for the beginnings of metal... i just didnt see it.... while i think that opeth are a good band that does some original things, i think its hard to see any band in your time as being revolutionary or whatnot.... hence my answer of opeth being overrated.....


remember the thread was who do u think is overrated.... not what band do you not like that a lot of people do

I think people are getting 'I don't like them but other people do' confused with 'overrated'.

I don't see how you can call bands like Slayer, Venom, Hellhammer, Bathory, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Celtic Frost, Sabbath, Motorhead, blah, blah, etc. etc. 'overrated' when they are essential bands to the creation of Metal music and the various sub-genres therein.

Now, you certainly are free to not like them yourself, but I don't see how they can be labeled as 'overrated' just because you happen to not like them.

For example I as well am not the biggest Slayer fan in the world and have always admitted that, but I would never in a million years call them 'overrated'.

Than again maybe it's me who doesn't understand what 'overrated' means.

Boozegood makes a good point. I really can't stand most of what Slayer has offered. That doesn't mean they're overrated though.

I think just about every popular band is overrated to some extent. The winner for me is Between the Buried and Me. Also, I don't mind Mastadon but they're pretty overrated. Same with Burzum. I listen to Burzum but find that people cream their pants WAYYYYY too much over it.

To answer the question of why I think Venom is overrated, they are widely credited with starting the black metal genre. This is incorrect. They MAY have coined the term and MAY have brought the evil stage presence to a higher level than what everyone else was doing at the time, but semantics be damned, they are not black metal. I don't hear it. Their lyrics are on par with a lot of black metal but that's where I draw the line.

I mentioned them in this thread because of shit like their website's tagline: "THE ONLY OFFICIAL WEBSITE OF VENOM - THE ORIGINAL INVENTORS AND FOUNDERS OF BLACK METAL." I don't care that their overpriced merch is at hot topic (http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/Music/MusicTshirts//Venom+In+League+With+Satan+Logo+T-Shirt-971579.jsp), in fact, I see it as a good thing since it gives kids the option to explore other avenues of music than whatever nowadays crap they're being pushed. Hopefully it throws money at honest metalheads instead of at some cookie cutter autotuned bullshit.

When Joe asks Jack what his favorite black metal band is, and Jack replies "Venom" at the top of the list, I tune out on anything Jack has to further say about music. Agree or disagree, the rebuttal is welcomed.

I think this question should include a band's influence on metal as a whole. Sure, if you don't like Venom or Slayer, they're overrated to YOU. But beyond the sense of self opinion, there are bigger things at work. Influential bands are NEVER overrated on the large scheme of things. They established a mark on the genre and influenced countless bands during their time.

See I don't think this is the case because I don't know anyone - anyone - who actually believes the new Slayer albums are 1. great or 2. influential. Sure, some people think they're fine albums, but I think the Slayer's listeners at large keep the new stuff in peerspective.

This is exactly what I think of when I think of 'overrated'. Bands that 'outsiders' (lulz, but ya know what I mean) suddenly thought as 'mind blowing', 'ground breaking', 'new', or some other such bullshit. The reality of it is that they don't know fuck all about metal, and they are 'overrating' these bands based on some misplaced since of musical-validation.

God dammit I can never explain what I means when it comes to these type of bands and more importantly the pitchfork-magazine-reader-circle-jerk-shit that surrounds them.

I believe that's a good thing though because it's feelings and emotions that are important when it comes to this stuff and it's hard to put that into words; you all know what the fuck I mean anyways.


But yes, shit like Liturgy is the absolute definition of overrated.


It's fucking shitty music for people that are searching for something in a genre they listen to ironically that they can listen to seriously without embarrassing themselves at their wine-and-cheese party.

Being bored at work, I decided to read the majority of the posts in this thread.

So allow me to ask this: Are there any other people here who are fans of "opinionated facts"?

I think it's pretty obvious what I mean, but on the off chance that it isn't, it's basically saying that what you feel towards something will be an opinion to others, while it is a fact, to you, personally.

I'll use Opeth as the example since I noticed the mere mentioning of their name caused two things. 1) Bashing 2) Butthurting.

Personally, I love Opeth. While I haven't been completely sold on their last few records, the first 6 (especially the first 5) are total masterpieces, and in my mind, that's a fact.

Why do people get so upset if someone else starts vehemently insulting a band that they happen to enjoy? For one, you're not even in the band, and secondly, who cares what someone else has to say? No one ever will completely see eye to eye with you, and so because someone else happens to hate Opeth doesn't mean I'm going to stop listening to them. Uh oh, someone hates a band I like.

GOOD.
,
The sun is still going to rise in the morning, there will still be football games on Sunday and pizza will remain an awesome food.

If someone else happens to enjoy the bands you also appreciate, more power to the both of you. Strike up a conversation and have a blast relating to one another about the various reasons why you both like what a particular band does. If not? Fuck them. Like whatever it is that you like. Another persons opinion should not tarnish the way you feel or listen to certain types of music. Don't get so worked up, and try taking some satisfaction in knowing that you're listening to awesome music and you're grateful that your mind has an affinity for those sounds and aesthetics.

Disagree. I see the point being made there and frankly, it makes sense. My eyes are hazel, fact. I too think Opeth is a great band, fact. That's not the same thing as saying something like "Well, I don't like the U.S. government so 9/11 never happened. If you think it happened, yours is an opinion, and if I say it didn't, it's a fact." Well, we all know 9/11 indeed happened, so whether or not you wanted to say it didn't, because you oppose the government, doesn't change the fact that photos, videos, and lives lost prove otherwise.
I'd say thinking of your tastes and preferences as personal facts, rather than opinions, which is what they are to other people, is a lot less "sillier" than crying, bitching or mudslinging.

Someone's judgmental. I love how because i'm younger it means i'm new to metal. Brb, going to go blast Amon Amarth and rave about how much I love guitar solos.

But in all seriousness, D666 are overhyped. Not overrated. There's a difference.

Overhyped = a band gets way more praise than they deserve
Overrated = a band gets way more fans than they deserve

At least, that's how I see it.

Honestly the only person Ive ever met who liked Lamb of God was some douche bag wigger who thought Slipknot and Lamb of God were the heaviest and most underground bands ever. He used to say shit like 'you wouldnt believe it bro theres like a whole underground society of people who only listen to hardcore heavy shit like lamb of god.' needless to say, never heard em.

No offense Spencer cause I think you're a good kid who seems to know alot of shit but being very young does mean you're new to metal.

I'm really really not.

My older brother(eight years older than me) was super into metal when he was 14-16 and I actually got into power metal(monkey see monkey do) when i was about 8/9. Hell, for Christmas 2002 my mom got me Blind Guardian's A Night At The Opera.

And my first concert was Nightwish at the palladium in 2004 when I was ten. It may not be up to your standards for "good metal" or whatever, but just because i'm only 18, doesn't mean I haven't been listening to this music for a long time.

And thass wut imma sayin boies.

Ummmmm you're not serious right? 10 years? That's not a long time.

It's not a long time, but it's considerably longer than "lol 18 year old, new to the scene, been here for six months"

For his age group, Spencer makes a little more sense than the others.

Also, the awkward moment when you realize Spence was 10 when your son was born.

I was 16 when Spencer was born. I'm almost old enough to be his dad. That's weirder.

For the record I was referring more to the fact that the older crowd tends to hold D666 in high regards, not necessarily talking about this kid, since I have no idea who he is.
