Iron Maiden - Aces High

I thought I was well overdue for getting into this band, seeing as they've influenced just about every band I listen to in one way or another. Decent stuff too, old school, but still great guitar, drum and vocal work nonetheless.

Rating: 8/10

[Mindpatch]

Steve Vai - Building the Church

An instrumental piece on guitar, the man is amazing. Anybody who likes guitar should listen to this piece, it's kind of F-Zero like.

[Caael]

@ Agatio, the only song I liked on Hatebreeder was Mask of Sanity, which is probably my favourite COB song to date. Hatebreeder is good, Bed of Razors is a great song, but I just like Are You Dead Yet as my favourite album.

Slipknot- Opium of the People
Nice guitar at the beginning, nice song, but it just doesnt stand out like other Slipknot songs
7/10

[I'm Always BROKE]

TOK - She's a Hoe.

Jamaican music at it's best. :) Don't mind the title, it's a very good song! I believe this gerne of Reggae is called Dancehall Reggea, and I recommend it to anyone who likes Dance or Reggea music.

Bodom's cover of Aces High. A faster pace, but the vocals are obviously much harder to understand and kinda detract from the song in this case.

Listen to Two Right Don't Make a Left...But 3 Do. I think it's the best album they've done so far. You may have heard me ranting about it in the last couple pages.

Actually, I think that the accoustic version is better, but this is good.

Very dramatic song, and it's one of the only Wade sightings on the new albums. Very good.

[GangstaGeek]

I listen to absolutely everything. It would take so long to post everything I listen to...I just got 4 new CDs and currently, I'm listening to one of them, but what I listen to is in no way a judge of my personality. Again, I listen to everything.

H.I.M. - Rip Out the Wings of a Butterfly

Off of their newest 2005 album, Dark Light.

They have a kind of a goth/soft rock/metal combo. It's quite unique. I like it.

I'd give this album of 10 songs a rating of 8/10. 4 of those songs are hits and it's easy to see, in my opinion.

And on a side note, a VERY good song by Relient K is "High of '75". ^_^

[Elliott]

No one listens to everything, if you say you do, then you're deluded.

Prostitute Disfigurement - Left In Grisly Fashion (album)

Dutch, brutal, grinding, death metal. Love it.

Rating: 10/10 (very solid album)

Gaah. This is how I feel today ._.

Ammunition - Switchfoot

The drum solo in the opening is one of my favorites.

Ceremonial Oath - Dreamsong

I funny that this was written 12 years ago in Sweden, and now American bands today are copying this kind of stuff almost riff for riff. I mean the intro alone sounds like about a dozen "metal"core songs that I've heard.

The Fray- How to save a Life. 7/10. It sounds like he's mumbling thruoghout his song but I can listen to it without deleting it from my computer the next day.

[Caael]

Stream of Consciousness- Dream Theater

Rudess really outdid himself on this one. Some of the best keyboard skills I have hear ever in this song. I also love the Guitar at the beginning and the end. Probably my 2nd Favourite Dream Theater song, after The Glass Prison

10/10

Juelz Santana - The Second Coming

I specifically remember someone saying they liked this guy, wasn't it Eugine? Anyway I heard this song in the new Nike basketball ad and picked it up. While the rap faults in places, the overlaying beat is infectious to say the least.

Justin Timberlake - What Goes Around

Brand new single, and it completely shatters my belief that Justin would stop singing about Britney by now. But stupid petty arguments make great songs, as they resulted in Cry Me a River and now this. Congrats to Timbaland for making every single JT song better than the last.

10/10

Stone Sour-Zzyzx Rd.

Lovely piano, quite different to their other songs but in a good way, like Through Glass, though I prefer this. Through Glass is overrated. It's good, but theres loads better, like this song. Love it.

Kryptonite- 3 Doors Down

I have an obsession with this song and I only heard it about 2 hours ago. Great song, but thats probably just me with my habbit- I dont care what the lyrics are about or the quality of the instrument playing, if I like the actual song then thats good enough for me. Love this, 10/10

The song's actually totally sold out to Nike, since he mentions "Air Force" at least twice. I found a horrible file available for download, the actual single will be released sometime late February, early March. It should also be on his myspace page, if you're that interested.

Oh Gravity - Switchfoot

Woo, finally actually got the new album. Not bad, even though iTunes hates me computer, and it won't download the last two tracks.

Anyway, this isn't the best song on the CD, but its good. For some really odd reason, I seeem to prefer CDs where there is no title track. It makes me feel like I need to like that song and it's more important than the rest, and better, which oftne not true. Just a random little thing that irks me. Heh...irk.

8.9/10 for both song and CD.

Dark Tranquillity - Fiction (album)

Just goes to show that after 18 years, a band can still be doing essentially the same thing and still have it sound fresh and exciting. Brilliant album, I'm on my third listen now and loving it more with each time. For fans of In Flames, Children of Bodom, At The Gates, Kalmah and any other melodic death metal really. Nice riffing, powerful vocals (both clean and harsh, though it's a harsh vocal dominated album), solid drum work, and brilliant atmospheric synth.

Like Light to the Flies - Trivium

The old Trivium stuff is definitely the best.

I joined when I was 15, and I don't post in the Golden Sun topics anymore, the only reason I come here is to post in topics like this and some in the off-topic section that tickle my fancy, also, there have been members older than me here before, age means nothing on a forum, as I can respect quite a lot of the 15/16 year old members and their views.

I wouldn't consider myself a "fanboy" as such, but more a dedicated fan, because I don't just listen to metal music exclusively (I don't mind the odd dose of jazz, classical, or progressive rock). And no, I'm not "time-rich". Working 2 jobs (I full-time, one 8 hours on the weekend) does quite the opposite I think you'll find.

I give 10/10 reviews more often than not because I'm playing one of my favourite tracks, which at the time usually deserves a 10/10 rating, if I was to be rating it based on originality, musicianship, production etc. and taking all the other musical aspects into account then you probably wouldn't see as many 10s. I rate the songs based on my opinion.

Furthermore, metal is one of, if not the most diverse blanket-term genre in the history of music. When you actually stop to consider the multitude of artists, bands, sub-genres and sub-sub-genres, plus the lengthy and interesting history, you will find it goes beyond "a bunch of drunken, albeit well rehearsed goons". By the way, only insult someone's grammar in that fashion if they actually deserve it ;p .

Really, I shouldn't be replying, and instead leaving the incredibly long aesthetic of your post speak for itself; a pandering, worried, emo, trying to substantiate each and every point against him. It's nice to know you value the perceptions that people (who you've never met mind you) have of yourself.

Not time rich? It's quite a dedicated effort only posting a few hours following mine. Next!

As for the 10/10 rating, it's rather useless, and better if pure personal opinion is left out of the equation. Being a public forum, and the rating publicly stated to entice the public into taking an interest, it makes more sense to give an objective view. Rating everything 10/10 reeks of fanboy-ness.

Facts? Most metal IS derivative. I challenge you to state otherwise. Just like any genre. If you'd bother to research other styles, you'll find that rock and pop are EQUALLY, if not more, diversive. Metal suffers from rightly being pigeonholed due to a huge lack of differentiation within subgenres, and ESPECIALLY to the image that many choose to take on. But alas, this is natural selection at work, and marketing. I agree that much greatness exists within it. It's important to realise that there is a profound lack of dynamics in most metal, both from an audio, and a songwriting perspective.

So you like Jazz? Classical? Prove it. Make us believe that these are not merely token additions to your musical diet. And no, I do not want to see a couple of prime performers.

BACK ON TOPIC!!!

[Wiflewood]

Euron, this is a videogame fan forum populated with various teenagers from around the globe. The ratings in this topic are not "to entice the public into taking an interest", this isn't some kind of 'recommend your music' topic, its just what your currently listening to and what you think of the song.

Anime fanboys/girls (Yuki etc) post in this topic all the time saying they're listening to random popy japanese compositions from various animes, my computer can't even display half the characters they use in the titles!
If they give any of their songs a 10/10 rating I'm not even going to bother asking for the English translation, let alone go and try and find it on the internet.

Now, I'm not a music nerd, I don't care or want to know what "a profound lack of dynamics from a song writing perspective" is, all I know is that I like the metal genre and it appeals to me. Just because its hard to classify metal into different sub genres, or that its diversive (or not) shouldn't detract from the music. Just because one song may sound like another (or indeed, one artist's picture look like another) doesn't detract from the skill or beauty of it.

As for Agatio being a "pandering, worried emo", that statement is just laughable. He's merely giving you a counter argument to your suggestion that hes a "metal fanboy too old to be on such a forum and too time-rich to have anything better to do than give impossible 10/10 reviews over and over."

Defending yourself in an argument doesn't mean your an insecure person fighting to stand up for himself before he burts into tears.

But anyway, back to the topic...

36 Crazyfists - The Heart and the Shape

Good song, I've just got into this band and I think they're quite original, I've not heard another band like them that much. I really like the singer's voice too, it's pretty unique.

[Euron]

You've missed the point entirely. I enjoy metal a lot. Main reason being, I am not blindly attached, and can look at it objectively. Most of my points relate to that and Agatios prior ramblings on it's greatness, rendering your post redundant.

On ratings - whether you like it or not, we post our ratings publicly knowing (or at least, assuming) others will take notice, however subconscious that may be. It's human nature.

The emo statement isn't laughable. I'm being just as bad, by entering into a drawn out and fruitless debate. Apathy has it's merits.

Agatio on the other hand, has not exhibited that.

Better luck next time, kthxbai.

[Wiflewood]

soz.

Being "not blindly attatched to it and able to look at it objectively" doesn't make you appriciate it more, or better than the rest of us. We all have our opinions, if some people like more metal than you, or like metal more than you then thats their choice. Why you have to come along and say "You're wrong for doing that" I don't understand.

Kissing the Shadows - Children of Bodom

Fave Bodom song at the moment.

[Caael]

Before or if I am shouted at, I am not Euron.

Dark World- Koji Kondo
A link to the past classical score. I love it, although it does sound like a piece put together on the computer instead of an actual orchestra playing, which is a shame. But I do like this song, love the mood it gives off

Woo! Video game music!

Caldoaxa Theme from Contact

Great background music, and it sort of actualy sounds like real music instead of just a midi or something.

[Elliott]

I'm the kind of guy who, when I present a retort, I address all points which need to be addressed. What's more emo; being a little pussy and crying over your comment, or presenting an objective reply that stimulates constructive conversation? The choice is pretty easy. I posted 3 hours after you because that's when I got home from my second job, and I usually check this place along with Myspace, last.fm etc. when I get home from work, and before doing other stuff (games, music, reading, TV etc.). Stop nitpicking and trying to discredit me because of when I post and because I'm arguing, you decided to register for what looks like the sole purpose of debating here, so at least have the balls to focus on what you're actually discussing.

As for metal being derivative, every genre has artists that are derivative. Is every single pop music act today original? Every techno song? Every up and coming rock band? Or even very jazz and classical piece? No, they're not. I'm not going to deny that there are a hell of a lot of metal acts that are ****ing boring as hell and extremely derivative and bland (maybe even more so than other genres, as making a "heavy" band these days is almost becoming a growing trend among youth), no one is. But the fact remains that there is also a lot of original and fresh talent in metal and it's vast expanse of sub-genres and sub-genres upon that.

For example, with metal, there are essentially 2 types; extreme and non-extreme (for lack of a better expression). Within extreme you have black metal, death metal, grindcore etc. All VERY different when you have a good listen. Then expanding on death metal, there is melodic, technical, brutal and grind death metal, again all very different. Cannibal Corpse and Children of Bodom are 2 hugely different bands, as are Psycroptic and Severe Torture. Yet they are all under the same blanket term "death metal" which is a sub genres of extreme metal, which is then a sub-genre of metal. Face it, there are original and unoriginal bands in every genre, that doesn't make them either good nor bad. I could go on and on and listen all the different sub-genres and their original and unoriginal acts, but I think I have made my point fairly clear. Dark Tranquillity's new album, for another example, covers no new ground whatsoever, they have done it all before, and yet it's still a fantastic piece of melodic metal music.

Does being derivative and somewhat unoriginal make it bad? No, it still has a fresh sound. I'm not going to defend every metal band because they're metal, or even every sub-genre (metalcore and nu-metal for example are just plain awful). Also, I'm not going to bash genres because they're not metal. I see a lot of talent in a lock of rock bands, jazz acts, classical pieces, indie bands, acoustic artists, I just prefer metal music simply because I do. There is no other explanation, I just enjoy metal the most.

Sonata Arctica - Wolf and Raven

Power metal classic, brilliant lead guitar / keyboard work, and catchy to boot.

Good work son, you've successfully gone against your plethora of prior-posted elitist rubbish, which is just what I wanted to hear. I knew you were pliable.

The Heretic Anthem- Slipknot

Moon Child- Ace
Nice, quieter Eurobeat song. 5/5

City and Colour - Hello, I'm in Delaware

Lots of acoustic guitar is making my playlist these days. This is a very nice song that pulls things from real life that everyone can relate to.

8/10

Woo! Delaware!

Ammunition - Switchfoot

Been listening to their slightly older stuff, this is a good song off of The Beautiful Letdown, but not the best.

8/10

[Requiem]

Your Guardian Angel -The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

It's a lot different from what I normally listen to; it's kind of slow and sappy, but meh. It's soft and calming, and the vocals are soothing.

8/10

And now The Other Side of the Crash/Over and Out (of Control) - Thursday

I love this song, I think it's probably my favorite from them. The beat is catchy, the lyrics are good, everything is done well. Their car crash theme becomes pretty apparent here, but I think it was done better than Understanding In A Car Crash.

10/10

Dark Tranquillity - Empty Me

One of the 10 stand-out tracks of the new 10 track album. There's others I enjoy moar though (The Mundane and the Magic is just amazing, the female vocals, which I assume are done by Liv Kristine, are really nice).

Incorrect. You have made countless references of blatant judgement on others tastes, promptly been called on them, and, in essence, retracted them through some thinly veiled overqualifying of your rashness. Well done son.

[Elliott]

What you don't seem to be able to get your head around is that you had no part in altering my opinions, as that happened before you even registered. People's opinions change all the time; so yes, I was once a fairly metal elitist a few months ago, but things differ now. You're superiority complex and inflated sense of self-importance is your downfall my friend.

You're now skipping the fundamentals of the argument, and taking stabs at my intent. The reality of the situation? See my previous post - the elitism/hypocrisy (superiority complex, anyone?) is well and truly recent. Need I cite posts? No, others are capable of searching. Unless, you count being enlightened in the last few days as one such opinion-change, which conveniently co-incides with your changing of tune early on in the argument, at my spurring.

Check-and-mate.

Enjoy! For that is all that matters.

Linkin Park - Papercut - 7/10 - from the only album worth a grain of goodness from these guys, in my opinion. Unfortunately the name will be forever tainted by their Meteora effort, or lack thereof.

7/10

[Echo_djinn]

Due to the new Naruto episodes, I've been listening to a lot of Jpop lately or more specifically Jrap? Anyways, the band I've particularly been paying attention to is "nobodyknows+".

Hero's Come Back- nobodyknows+ aka Naruto Shippuden's OP. Sound a lot like Bleach's OP.

For all Jpop fans out there I suggest taking a listen to them.

[Requiem]

Glass To the Arson - Anberlin

This is my favorite song by them. It's catchy, it has good lyrics, like most of their songs, but a little heavier I guess. I think most people can relate to this song one way or another. "Tonight my heart is cold, lost in your lies, shallow replies. Tonight I'll just let go, lost in your eyes, transparent cries."

10/10

[Sea of Time]

City and Colour - Save Your Scissors

First single but it doesn't have the same feeling with the acoustic guitar as some of the others do. Kind of disappointing but still one of the best choruses on the album.

8/10

Orochimaru's Fight - Toshiro Masuda

I like this song, mainly because the music makes you feel like you're free and the lyrics go along with it. I think it's a good song to listen to on a road trip or something. Very optimistic-y, something I don't usually listen to, but the ending is amazing.

Devin Townsend - Bad Devil - 7.5/10

Great groove, I like it.

[Elliott]

It's interesting how you assume things then base an argument around it. I mean, with an attitude and approach like that it's strange how you're not trolling a political forum and telling people there how to live their lives. Narcissistic? Closet emo? I'm quite the opposite really, though you seem to be displaying those personality traits by touting your opinion as if it's law, why simultaneously being overly defensive and trying desperately to get the last word in. I'm definitely up for a constructive, intelligent, coherent and logical debate if you're willing, but I think someone who acts my age is probably better to be interacting with. I haven't lowered myself to the level of petty insults like you. So what say you; Debate, or continue this fruitless exercise of inflating your already over-sized ego?

Havn't listened to these guys for ages. Their music definately doesn't have the same impact on me as it did 18 months ago. Some songs such as this one are still cool though. I love the beginning; great album opener.

The Root of All Evil- Dream Theater

Anarchsphere - Scene of a homicide

Local metal at it's finest. I can also completely understand why someone who detest this.

If you claim to like rap, go get T.I.'s What You Know and Young Jeezy's I Luv It. Two of the best from last year, and this is coming from someone who doesn't even like rap!

ORANGE RANGE - *~Asterisk

The first opening theme for Bleach. I don't really watch the anime/read the manga, but this song is still pretty good.

8/10

Yung Joc Ft. Lil' Wayne - I know u see it (remix)

Nice beat, tho the annoying computer generated tune in the background tends to annoy me.

[8/10]

Jack Johnson - The 3 Rs. (From the Curious George movie.)

Because three - it's a magic number! Yes it is! It's a magic! .. Three! Three! THREE! Gottta reduce reuse recycle! Three times three is? (SIX!) Six times three is? (EIGHTEEN!) The eighteenth letter of the alphabet is? (ARE LOL!)

Hahaha I stumbled upon this song looking for Jack Johnson music.

R/10.

Curious George...XD

Anonymous - Zombie (German Techno Remix)

This is a techno song that I came across one day. Quite interesting. =D

9/10

Pleading the Fifth (A Cappella) - Relient K

I just got Five score and Seven Years Ago, and I think that it's safe to safe that it rocks. This song is great, even though it's only a little longer than a minute, it sets the tone for the rest of the album. It's about Lincoln getting shot. I think. It's awesome.

10/10

Neverhood OST - Southern Front Porch Whistler

*love* 10/10

[Neo]

The Fray - Look after you

Pure music goodness!

[10/10]

[FlamingDuck]

^That song reminds me of 24 by Switchfoot. The oh-oh-ohs are nearly identical.

Come Right Out and Say It - Relient K

Good, standard song. Nothing too surprising.

9/10

Outta My System ft. T-Pain - Bow Wow
Currently, rap is getting really good for me, after a few (about two) years of dissapointment. With Akon, Bow Wow, Ludacris, T.I., Diddy to name the most prominent of the many... Rap is simply amazing.

This one here, stands out imo, Bow Wow really suprised me. 10/10.
The video makes this song even better btw.

Tenacious D - F*** Her Gently

So funny. XD

9/10

[Sea of Time]

Enya - May It Be

I find it remarkable that in music, the languages of Tolkien can really enhance a beautiful tune. The lyrics flow, and the tone really does the first film justice.

10/10

[Toasty]

2 Live Crew - Too Much Booty in the Pants

XD this song's pretty funny IMO.

7/10

I Need You - Relient K

It's a little...heavy, I guess. It's really not heavy at all, but it feels like it.

7.5/10

[Lightning Star]

The Middle- Jimmy Eat World

Who DOESN'T love this song?! It always puts a smile on my face when I hear it :3 "Everything, Everything will be alright!" A classic, in my opinion. 10/10
