My guess in the lets attempt to youtube RIPBT's music taste:

I don't like Bloodbath, the only song i like by them is "weak aside", on their Unblessing the purity EP.
Apart from that i don't really like them.

 

I was going to aim for something worse but I gave you the benefit of the doubt.

 

Right I need to cleanse:

You make a good point Stevie.

 

Here's a death metal band, where the lyrics are hard to understand, but if you listen to the song often enough, you can understand them. I love this song -

It's extremely atmospheric.

 

hahhaahaaha xD
That band reminds of that american show "dinosaurs" that was on in the 90's.
The show was good, but this band sucks, regardless of how much it reminds me of a great show.

 

See this is what I don't get about screaming metal bands. Every band has it's own style ie "deathcore" or "thrash metal" or "speedcore" when they all sound massively similar and clearly draw from the same influences, it's all metal.

The thing I tend to like about "indie", although I dislike the term, is that it covers loads of different styles. The Smiths, Kings Of Leon (early stuff), The Music and Ocean Colour Scene for example could all have their own genre as they're very different but they all slip into the "indie" category. Why dream up some form of new genre to justify one metal band sounding the same as another?

Could someone tell me the difference between speedcore and deathcore?

 

Tash man death metal is just noise!

 

Have some rep my friend!

 

There's no such thing as speedcore.

However that's not what I was repping. I was repping the fact that there's way to many sub genres of Core/Metal when you have stuff like Indie where most bands are different and are still one genre.

 

Thats because metal is a dead end genre with no means of evolving other than by mixing in other musical forms. To create the illusion of diversity there are billions of subgenres for a style of music that now has but a handful of innovative bands. Not to tar it all with the same brush though, theres a world of difference between a band like Meshuggah and a band like, say, Opeth. Both of which are metal bands that use screaming vocals.

 

It's not our fault that you're ignorant about the differenes between different types of metal. If you listen to a thrash metal band, a deathcore band, and a death metal band, you'd realise the difference.

Here -

Thrash Metal -

Deathcore -

Death Metal -

I would go into detail about the difference between them, but i've tried to explain it to 100's of people, and no one is able to understand what i'm trying to say.
I'l let you mkae your own mind up. If you really want to know the differences, you need to listen to a decent amount of each type of metal.

 

Can I ask, how have you got it downloading on Itunes? I bought it on the £30 option(through Radiohead's offical site) where you get the CD and a few extras in May, but you also get the MP3 version now. The MP3's just went into a 'winrar file', and I havent been able to download them into itunes. Im rubbish with technology :/

 

Just because it has it's own wiki page, doesn't make it a type of metal. It's like deathgrind or bludgeoned black metal. I can make up my own ****ty type of metal, make a wiki page for it, doesn't actually make it a type of music, or atleast one that is recognised.

 

Muse
Nirvana
Limp Bizkit
Linkin Park
Killers

 

I have a beef with Muse for lifting large chunks of music from Rachmaninoff and Chopin without making it clear that they didn't write it!
