Most overrated band

[random whale]

And his son ain't half bad either. 'The end' has one of my all time favorite solos

[tulip flax]

his whammy bar usage, his ability to make rlly rlly rlly weird rhythms sound good. he also goes off key and still sounds good too (atleast for his studio solos)

[fringe peak]

deftones

[uncut prairie]

Taylor Swift

[supple rose]

the rhythm section of it too

those juicy harmonics

[uncut prairie]

Suicide Silence

[unkempt forum]

The Beatles by the widest margin. literal snooze fest. i WISH i could like the band and i am trying to give them a chance my entire life. dozens of times. i can't stand that band and i genuinely don't get the hype

incredible passion and so much soul put into Oasis music. first few albums are literal heaven. it feels so heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time listening to them. Beatles on the other hand....

[obtuse scarab]

Okay.. ill give them a chance, any suggestions?

[unkempt forum]

it's all about you being unbiased and genuine. and if you are you'll like them, because it's just good music. try listening to any popular song, even

[obtuse scarab]

No no i mean.. any particular song you love?

[unkempt forum]

can't say i have a favorite one, but Live Forever is fucking amazing. the chorus... wow

just listen to the lyrics, really read into their lyrics

https://open.spotify.com/track/2FpkYhya8Kp79uxv7fDsM8

it's just his manner of singing that gets me. Maybe instrumentally they are not like absolute geniuses, but their vocal parts are phenomenal

i had my Oasis phase a year ago, was obsessed with them, for no real reason. Just listened to them and realized how good and soultouching their music is

Oasis gives me this crazy summer vibe, where i stare into the sunset over the fields and feel like I HAVE A PURPOSE... my life isn't worthless, life is so worth living and experiencing everything there is to it

also... THIS

https://open.spotify.com/track/0nufhlacuDxP6rNm6qLNrc

[obtuse scarab]

The lyrics are good, they aren't exaggeratedly optimistic.. and his vocal style kind of fits the song..

[unkempt forum]

listen to Talk Tonight. listen to it when you're alone in a room, or outside

[unkempt forum]

oasis is never about optimism. it's not Beatles haha happy song yippie

they are about the feels. the soul

[obtuse scarab]

Yesterday broke up with my partner and hit really hard, but yes.. it's a good one, especially the guitars, are soft.. like when you're learning how to live hehehe!

Have you ever listened to Day Wave? You may like it!

[obtuse scarab]

Siiii, ill do it in a moment

[unkempt forum]

that's fucking rough. i've been waiting for an online girlfriend for 1,5 years. moved countries for her. threw my family, friends and city away just to see her and build life.

she is not coming, i already know it. i've felt horrible for the past few months, unfortunately i cannot grow up for her, instead of her. all i can do is move on. so i feel you. you'll heal, like everyone.. every single time.. we got this

Fuckin Metallica

[opaque thunder]

100%

[devout trellis]

mcr is great

[boreal valley]

Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Faith No More is so much better

[dreamy wyvern]

LIMP BIZKIT STILL SUCKS COCK!

[frosty trench]

korn but korn is between mainstream and niche

[dreamy lotus]

Gng

What

[runic gorge]

korn is very very mainstream and overrated

korn is not niche at all

[mossy bridge]

not at all

[unreal linden]

I didn't really ask for your opinion. That's mine.

[mossy bridge]

not at all is my opinion to your opinion

[mossy bridge]

yk what else is mine? sweet child o mine

[unreal linden]

yeah and I'm sure you put someone I didn't agree with, and I let you have it...

[mossy bridge]

i didnt get you but alright, no point arguing over bands

[unreal linden]

I mean this is an overrated thread. If no one disagrees, the band can't be overrated in the first place. But you don't have to agree with my pick or whatever, but you're definitely not going to change my mind on that one

[mossy bridge]

alr bro

[runic gorge]

guns n roses is definitely overrated

[dreamy wyvern]

Use your illusion was fire though, they’re overrated for what they are but they still make great music, same for Metallica

[mossy bridge]

not that overrated

[mossy bridge]

yes i agree, they are slightly overrated considering they did not make a lot of songs though that highlights their potential as well

[simple lotus]

U2

[brittle karma]

Green day no hate

[opaque thunder]

Green Day is actually good though, besides them adding lots of politics to there songs

[onyx forge]

Who’s gonna tell em?

[tulip flax]

“metallica is actually good tho, besides them adding lots of distortion to their guitars”

[tulip flax]

[brittle karma]

I'm a massive nirvana fan and I love every song but it's kinda overrated because of teen spirit

My favourite song is probably very ape or scoff

[obtuse scarab]

I'm not saying they're overrated, but I can't dig Gojira no matter what.. despite I like metal

[sick pivot]

Nirvana

[hidden portal]

Fucking KISS bro 🥀 they are NOT that good

[tulip flax]

they dont really get mentioned much anymore but it seems like they were all over the place back then (im too young to confirm nor deny)

[hidden portal]

Why do you think so?

[sick pivot]

Because it is

[hidden portal]

You don’t have a reason?

[livid stream]

What don't you understand? He says he thinks so because "it is" so.

[hidden portal]

I just think if you have an opinion you should be able to back it up 🤷‍♂️

[livid stream]

I disagree. Not being able to back it up doesn't make his opinions any less valid. Opinions just opinions

[hidden portal]

Whatever 🤷‍♂️

[odd vine]

ACDC

[near arch]

I can confirm.

[graceful jewel]

they have probably a dozen grouse songs and then the rest is just shit

tbh

[odd vine]

Their drummer is so smart

He literally only has to play one drum beat

Makes millions

[dense cove]

Green Day

Can’t stand gay shit like that

[opaque thunder]

It’s not that Green Day is bad, it’s that it’s just overplayed.. same thing even more with ac/dc, atleast in my opinion..

Green Day ain’t even played much- I don’t think

[graceful jewel]

smart game plan

same with their bass player

cliff williams if memory serves me correct

[odd vine]

Agreed

For a punk band they’re not very punk

[pure idol]

Mods kill this guy

Amount of homophobic guitarists is insane
Music is meant to bring people together

[dense cove]

Their work is just not suitable for human auditory

[pure idol]

Your opinions aren’t either

So shut up

[simple lotus]

Honestly I can't stand Bruce Springsteen

And Steve Vai

[tulip flax]

green day is better than metallica, gnr and motley crue

green day is better than carti and smokingskul

[dense cove]

worst take oat

[tulip flax]

naw its fact

[median surge]

Homophobia is never justified tho

[pure idol]

Green Day isn’t homophobic

Billy Joe Armstrong is bi

[median surge]

[pure idol]

I don’t get why people have such a problem with me kissing men

Like bro if you’re so obsessed with it I think you’re the gay one

[tulip flax]

hatred is a sin so yeah i agree that homophobia is cringe

[median surge]

Exactly

[tulip flax]

anyways, i dont want to talk too much abt religion bc of server rules

[pure idol]

You can’t get gay people out of your head?
That’s gay dude

[pure idol]

Valid

[simple lotus]

Marylin Manson - I never liked him

[simple lotus]

Hatred is massive sin so I agree

[velvet dagger]

slipknot is overrated and korn

[odd vine]

MSI

[pulsar lake]

Agreed

[pulsar lake]

Y hate on korn 😭

Metallica, there songs get too much playing time, dont get me wrong but black is the most overplayed album ever

[graceful jewel]

WOAHHH

WOAHH

WHAT THE @&@%$^#)@(#%

yk what

ppls are allowed to have their opinions

lucky steve vai isnt a band!!!

he's a solo artist

althiugh he did play in whitesnake if im not mistaken

[tulip flax]

he played for alcatrazz, david lee roth's band, and whitesnake yeah

[graceful jewel]

oh yeah he did

on eat 'em and smile

[tulip flax]

[graceful jewel]

yupp

[waxen shale]

Polyphia

[wet siren]

Anyone who isnt me

[simple lotus]

Generally Seattle's Big 4

I like and respect Soundgarden and AIC

Pearl Jam is nice but overrated

But I hate Nirvana

[livid stream]

Cradle of filth

[pulsar lake]

Dont talk abt music with anyone gng 🪦

Im ngl whitezombie is badass

[simple lotus]

Agree

[simple lotus]

Sorry. I much prefer Glam Metal over Grunge (despite fact that I prefer Les Pauls, Strats, Hollowbodies and Teles over Superstrats)

[tulip flax]

is hair metal and glam metal considered the same thing?

[simple lotus]

Yes

[tulip flax]

i prefer hair metal over grunge but i prefer grunge a lot more than metallica

grunge isnt even bad

imo

[simple lotus]

Even when Grunge killed Glam Metal?

[tulip flax]

tbh im probably a poser hair metal fan because the only hair metal i listen to is racer x’s 80s albums, but i absolutely love those albums to death

a lot of hair metal kinda sucks imo

but it has potential to be great

[astral moss]

Racer x is speed metal, true hair metal is like fucking poison and twisted sister

[pulsar lake]

Damn.

[tulip flax]

racer x is a whole bunch of genres depending on the album/specific song

some were progressive hard rock, some was hair metal, some was neoclassical metal, a lot of it was speed metal tho haha

[tulip flax]

like “sunlit nights” is hair metal, atleast from what ive gathered from the wikipedia definition

[astral moss]

They had some hair metal qualities indeed but it aint true hair metal

[astral moss]

Yeah same thing here, i can see the classification but like it sint hair metal hair metal

[tulip flax]

i can see racer x being more classified as like, just heavy metal

[tulip flax]

fair

[simple lotus]

Poison and Twisted Sister are cool

[astral moss]

well opinions, i hate em personally

[pulsar lake]

Same

[proven bough]

Nirvana is so overrated

Change my mind

[livid stream]

Nevermind

[proven bough]

Overrated

[livid stream]

Bleach

[proven bough]

That’s the only somewhat decent one

[livid stream]

What about incesticide?

[proven bough]

Meh

[livid stream]

Lol

[livid stream]

I agree.

[tulip flax]

still better music than metallica

[proven bough]

Nah Metallica better

[tulip flax]

metallica has shit grooves + shit solos

[dense cove]

ts dude

[tulip flax]

tastes are subjective ofc, but i just think metallica's oddmeter writing fucking sucks mega ass

thats master of puppets btw

blackened

disposable heroes

ik metallica was inspired by Rush but jeez Rush's oddmeter writing is actually decent whereas metallica's sucks

disposable heroes is actually one of the few songs i actually like from metallica, but the shit oddmeter definitely decreases my liking for it

[dense cove]

if u think Metallicas oddmeter sucks then ur gonna hate technical thrash as a whole

[proven bough]

Ok master of puppets is absolute dog shii

But there are some good ones

[knotty swan]

Finally someone who isn't licking Metallica's butt

FINALLY

[tulip flax]

do they also have shitty oddmeter writing? cuz im not entirely opposed to oddmeter, which is why i like Rush and Paul Gilbert’s prog rock records

[tulip flax]

disposable heroes couldve been a damn near perfect song from them but the oddmeter kinda just ruins part of it ngl.

i feel like the popular metallica songs arent great for the most part.

the lesser popular ones are better

“the thing that should not be” is another good song from them imo.

“dont tread on me” couldve been perfect too but holy shit that guitar solo is aaaasssssssssssssss.

[tulip flax]

and im not even the type of person that hates on popular stuff because they are popular, hence why i like listening slipknot and nirvana sometimes

[astral moss]

i fucking hate that song. luv the primus version tho

[tulip flax]

lol

[pure idol]

Van halen bro

[pulsar lake]

😭

[frigid bane]

It’s Green Day and if you disagree you’re the first person to ever have a wrong opinion

[livid stream]

Red Hot Chili Peppers

[median surge]

??

[median surge]

Explain your opinion please

[livid stream]

Their music from the 90s was their best but for the last 20 years they've been stale imo

[median surge]

Yeah i actually do kinda get that

[tulip flax]

californication has some weird ass lyrics ngl

[worn ridge]

had a close friend go to a peppers concert

they were huge fans of the music

they said the concert was the worst thing they had ever seen. i think flea is awesome. i think most of the peppers are awesome

i think Anthony has been stuck for awhile and does not understand his actions

they said between constant stops and just a mess together that it was obvious that they were just disjointed and coming together for the pay. mainly Anthony

thats just as of the last 8 years though i have no idea about them in there prime besides like 99 woodstock that shit was wild

someone said nirvana was overated. that's just pitiful.

i understand to a extent thinking its over rated but the cultural impact alone is something that really hasn't been mimicked

its really hard to say shit like that when there are things like "the wanted"

its just a place and a time

[tulip flax]

nirvana isnt super overrated imo. at least they sound consistently good, unlike metallica

[worn ridge]

and the progression of such

[worn ridge]

i mean i dont think so although i will admit I am a fan

metallica is also one that i dislike tbh

[tulip flax]

shit oddmeter writing and shit solo writing (mostly)

[worn ridge]

i wont say they are overrated just that its not my taste they managed to become a staple and the performance of "ONE" on mtv shows they had something

just not for me i think they arrived for alot of the older generation to realize what was coming next

but still only like 3 songs I like

[tulip flax]

one has an annoying ass guitar solo icl

[worn ridge]

the break in it is pretty nice though i will say

still fuck lars tho

[tulip flax]

metallica is weird cuz they had some really weird and shitty oddmeter writing and still somehow took over the world. this is my sign to never blindly trust what the popular culture likes

nirvana and slipknot are good tho

im not a constant hater of popular music

[worn ridge]

i could never do slipknot its that same not for me thing

but i wont discredit

[tulip flax]

i think slipknot is the reason why ive been able to enjoy Death. slipknot got me used to harsh vocals

[worn ridge]

i think motorhead is one of those bands that kinda fall into that umbrella but i actually really enjoy the 89 album

this ones gonna piss alot of people off

iron maiden

love the art

love alot of the instrumentals

i absolutely hate rock opera vocals

[tulip flax]

does that mean you hate power metal for that reason?

[worn ridge]

no some metal has a kick i just usually dont go that deep into heavy

im heavy light

[tulip flax]

you dont like heavy heavy stuff?

[worn ridge]

i suppose if the right thing catches me i will

there are exceptions

never was big on nin

slipknot

those types of things although i kinda started listening to early nin and some of it is not that bad

[tulip flax]

idrk what “heavy” means in metal tbh. i’ve interpreted heavy riffs as riffs that have a catchy melody and catchy groove, with well-placed palm mutes

[worn ridge]

close ins scale really

like think going f to f# and chugging the shit out of it

[tulip flax]

and the riffs typically reside at the lower range of the guitar

[worn ridge]

i like deftones theyre one that i can get behind

[tulip flax]

the whole “b2 phrygian heavy metal riff” thing has been done to death, and i think its good but i dont want to personally use the idea too much bc it becomes to repetitive

[worn ridge]

ive stayed so far away from alot of it in my own music

like i dont mind doing it at the end of a riff

[tulip flax]

you dont like that melodic idea?

[worn ridge]

but not the entire thing being like that

i dont like feeling like i did not try even if i make something simple

example

[tulip flax]

do you write music with one or two guitar parts?

[worn ridge]

both it depends

this one has 2

[tulip flax]

in that case i think its fine to keep the parts simpler but add complexity with an accompanying guitar part

[tulip flax]

thats very cool and very 80s sounding

[worn ridge]

i will say i always liked 3 piece bands more because of being a engineer and having room to play with.

also ty

[tulip flax]

i like 5 piece bands cuz i loved the harmonized shreds of Racer X and also i do love Judas Priest

[worn ridge]

yeah i agree like a nice 4-5 is not bad honestly and they can achieve alot more. I also always felt like being restraint leads people to fight themselves into finding what can work within the box that they are in]

making simplicity evolve into something above what they should be able to do

and thats where genius is born but also thats where alot of people cannot achieve

[tulip flax]

Muse absolutely fucking cooked on “Blackholes and Revelations”. so much complexity and journey written by 3 people.

too bad they dont really play much of their deeper cuts from that album live

i genuinely think thats their best album

[worn ridge]

muse is dope asf

not my first pick but they are a prime example

sublime, muse , jimi hendrix

3 piece bands that made something crazy happen because 3 of them had to

not that jimi isnt amazing on his own

but stuff like cream i mean

they might have been backings for the main star

but thats the shit that happens when youre forced to make 3 people do something amazing

not huge on green day but they do exist

[tulip flax]

yeah Muse 100% had to use backing tracks for all the synth stuff.

nowadays though, Muse is a 4 piece band. they have a synth player/DJ now

[worn ridge]

yeah i mean i went to go and see viagra boys

that shit was fucking mental and i think there is 5 of them

but ive seen alot of bands have to use the synth backing

i dont shun them for it though hell of a show not everyone can have a cello come out and sit on stage

[median surge]

I think anthonys lyrics are usually meant to leave room for interpretation

I don't like him either for a bunch of reasons to be honest

He's a mid vocalist and he's had sex with at least one minor

John is also miles ahead of him when it comes to singing

[worn ridge]

how is it that you say they are overrated and underrated at the same time

[errant spindle]

sorry i'm french, i think i don't have understand the difference

okay, they are UNDERRATED

[left wadi]

slipknot

[tulip flax]

1000000x better than metallica

[left wadi]

at least metallica has riffs

nothing good about slipknot

[tulip flax]

metallica has shitty oddmeter writing and shitty solos

slipknot has good riffs :)

[left wadi]

slipknot doesnt have riffs tfym

[tulip flax]

ok even if slipknot has zero riffs, theyre still miles better than metallica

[left wadi]

personally i dont like either but everything goes agaisnt slipknot

[tulip flax]

what do you like?

[left wadi]

good music

[tulip flax]

what bands/artists?

[left wadi]

like to play or to listen to?

to play gojira is fun

[tulip flax]

to listen to

[left wadi]

to listen is like necrophagist

[tulip flax]

what subgenre even is necrophagist? is it tech death?

cuz ik its death

[left wadi]

ye

im trying to remember the name of the other band

[tulip flax]

i like some death metal (Death, ICDD, TBDM) but i'll admit that i havent listened to much and that im a death metal larper

[left wadi]

spawn of possession

is very good aswell

[tulip flax]

im not a fan of brutal death metal nor slam tho

[left wadi]

dissapointing

[tulip flax]

sorry for having good ears

jk

[left wadi]

it takes a while to get into slam or bdm

i went in and out of it like 10 times

[tulip flax]

tech death band, the most technical stuff i listen to is either Jason Becker, Racer X, or Spiro Dussias lol

[left wadi]

spawn of possession is super peak btw

[tulip flax]

i think i need to wait for PCIe 7 to come out to attach a computer to my brain to understand whats happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av3MdFvJDKg

[left wadi]

its just so entertainning to listen to

[tulip flax]

songs with oddmeter usually take me a couple of listens to get into the groove of, if the oddmeter is written well. idk if this song has oddmeter tho or if its just really weirdly written 4/4

[tulip flax]

are these mfs picking the string skips or hybrid picking em?

[left wadi]

i think string skips

[dense cove]

What’s with ur generational hate on Metallica

u should check out artillery btw

very nice band

[tulip flax]

shit oddmeter writing and shit solos

Chuck Schuldiner and his band writes much better oddmeter than metallica

[dense cove]

what are u usually into

[tulip flax]

the bands i like r in my bio but i also like EDM and some pop too.

i also dont hate all oddmeter, which is why i can listen to Rush and enjoy em.

[brittle karma]

[median surge]

Rancid and antifascism is absolutely valid tho👍

[frigid bane]

Thank you

[mossy bridge]

metallica, green day, red hot chilli peppers, nirvana

[tulip flax]

naw the metallica one is valid

[tulip flax]

metallica has shit oddmeter writing and shit solos

[thorny gale]

OK

I guess

[mossy bridge]

honestly no lol

but hey everyone has their own taste
