Nu metal

One huge reason why today's music is turned rotten to the point of decay.

Weirldly enough, this "music" shares alot of simularies to 70s/80sglam rock and hair metal:
- They are completely mainstream. It takes barely any challenge at all to hit the Billboard. They both use their lack of real talent to

- Annoying vocals. Glam had the ear-spliting torture of yelling and the mediocrity of singing sorrowfully from feminine men while nu metal "artists" do a horrible impression of rapping or use the same method of screaming like their 80s counterpart.

- Lyrics are as deep and complex as a horizontal line. Rather than explaining, listen and find out yourself on how fucking weak the lyrics are- no real meaning, no real work, no real depth; just used to get shitloads of cash and women.

- Completely hated by metal fans so it'll stay far and away from their scene. (Indie Artist for the win!!!)

- They are both fads, FADS. It's just happens that glam was like a nucleur radiation-sensitive bug while nu metal is big, fucking cockroach.

The only contrasts are that:
- Glam/Hair = sex and love; Nu = angst and pity

- Glam/Hair = transvestitial men; Nu = metal noobies and wannabe rappers

- Glam/Hair = making their names to look cute; Nu = misspelling their names in order to look cool

FUCK nu metal and their marketing scheme, why give away money on a highly taled about yet a shitty album so it can be shoved up into the asses of MTV, RIAA and that said nu metal "band"?

Conspiracy Theorist

1) Someone with a very open mind... it just happens that they are too open for their own good.

2) A swell way to become an attention whore.

3) A perfect way to waste away years of your life to find no reliable evidence what-so-ever.

Example: A classic 9/11 conspiracy-

Fold a $20 bill in half, then fold one half up perpendicular to the othe half, do the same thing with the other half, *BING*
You found the Pentagon burning down!
Now flip it, you see the twin towers ablazing (which is disturbingly similar though...)
Since the $20 bill's design was concieved in 1928 (over 4 decades when the towers were built), that's nothing more but a coincidence.

>PS, Conspiracy Theorist, haha.

Cannibal Corpse

n)
One of the most brutal and successful death metal bands out there right now. They are widely known for their infamous grossed-out lyrics and extremely explicit album art- "extremely" can barely cover the nastyness of the artwork.
Their guitar chords have deceisively complexity and nice patterns here and there. Be glad that George Fisher's voice is usually incoherate, for the lyrics can paint some nasty imagery in your mind that can even make a full-blown maniac (like me ;P) shudder big time.

If Cannibal Corpse made videos off of their songs... then those videos will be the best ever made in history.

Gojira

An excellent progressive death metal band from France. These guys did nothing but tour late 2006 and throughout '07 by opening acts such as Machine Head, Annihilator, and Lamb of God. Their live shows are amazing.

They somewhat some like Mastodon but they so much more ass (coming from a Mastodon fan). Alot of their topics are about human intervention with nature and how it'll effect earth.

These guys are worth anyone's attention. Go pick up "From Mars To Sirius" Gojira's latest album. You'll get hooked!

You are a faggot if you hate Gojira.

Metal Blade Records

Metal Blade Records is an independent record label (founded in 1981 by Brian Slagel) for metal/rock bands.
It has offices in USA, Germany and Japan.

Bands such as As I Lay Dying, The Black Dahlia Murder, Cannibal Corpse, Fates Warning, GWAR, King Diamond, Slayer and Unearth are/were labeled to Metal Blade.

In my own opinion, Metal Blade Records is the best record company out their right now. Because MBR has many great death metal and grindcore artists signed to them.

Run down of current Artists of Metal Blade Records!

Good Charlotte

Well this is easy...

Shit. Pure, utter, gay shit. Only famous because MTV made them that way. One of clear channel's prized possessions.

Good Charlotte- I'd rather drink the fluid that comes out of a piece of elephant dung than listen to those cocks.

System of a Down

An alternative/experimental metal band with 4 current members that stayed together since and brought back great music into the mainstread. All the members of SOAD are of Armenian heritage and are grandsons of Armenian Genocide survivors.

Their lyrics are somewhat simple yet they have a deep meaning once you finally get the point to those songs (which are either very, VERY political or social).

A ton of people confuse System of a Down as a nu metal band because they happen to debut their first album when a bunch of new bands amerged in the same year and they have somewhat similar styles... although SOAD has disnounced that they are nu metal.

They are currently on hiatus.

Oh, and they are as pop music as Britney Spears is to metal... nice thinking, retards.

Memebers: Serj Tankian, Daron Malakian, Shavo Odadjian, John Dolmayan

Albums: System of a Down, Toxicity, Steal This Album!, Mezmerize, Hypnotize
