  1. Yes. Irrational.

    I'd say it is irrational, considering that most folk that hate it have never actually listened to more than one or two Metalcore bands.

    So how many would you say I have to listen to before I'm not deemed irrational that I hate "metalcore"?

    Why is Metalcore in quotation marks? Are you trying to imply it isn't a real thing?

    Maybe irrational hate is the wrong term.

    What I find irrational is people who listen to a couple bands they don't like and decide that the entire genre is the drizzling shits. If a person has actually listened to a fair bit of this or any genre for that matter, and still dislike it, fair enough. But to say that all of a genre is shit because of a couple bands you don't like is idiotic and, yes, irrational.

    I've heard some "metalcore", and I can objectively say that it all sounds fucking horrible, or as you so aptly put it, the drizzling shits.

    Why do you keep putting it in quotes? Seriously, why?

    Music can't really be objectively bad, though, because there's always gonna be someone that enjoys it. You can think it's bad but that doesn't make it objectively bad. Do you really think that much of yourself that you believe your opinion to be absolute unbreakable fact?

    Oh, and out of curiousity, what are the Metalcore bands you've listened to?

  4. So I saw some pic of a band from Australia that were a bunch of young guys dressed like they were in Mötley Crue, and the article kept calling them metal. I have a feeling they aren't, but can anyone tell me who they are so I can kill my curiosity?

    The only Australian band I can think of that fits that description is Sisters Doll, who are Hard Rock/Glam Rock.

  5. So I asked a similar question in the Metal thread (only with Death Metal instead of Hardcore): What bands would you guys suggest for someone who likes Metalcore/Post Hardcore and is trying to get into straight up Hardcore?

  6. I have listened to Six Feet Under. They are God awful. Their vocals are terrible, I have no idea how people can think Barnes is better than Corpsegrinder (Cannibal Corpse being perhaps the only other proper Death Metal band I've ever really listened to) and their instrumentals are terrible.

  7. Alright EWB, I need your help. I'm looking to get into Death Metal (the closest I listen to to straight up Death Metal is a few Melodic Death bands, Behemoth and a bunch of Deathcore bands) but have no idea where to start. So what would you guys suggest as some good gateway Death Metal bands?

  8. So, have anyone heard the new Behemoth album, The Satanist? I am on my fourth listen to it now and what a fucking comeback album. Not a weak song on it.

    It's the first Behemoth album I've ever heard and Jesus H. Christ, is all their stuff this good?

    It depends. If you like The Satanist, then you should check out The Apostasy. However, a lot of their oldest stuff, from the 90s, is much more raw ad pure black metal without the gigantic riffs and death metal inspiration.

    I'll check out The Apostasy. I don't care much (read: at all) for straight up black metal, so I'll steer clear of their early stuff.
