    WHY did they strip-down the sound for No Prayer??

    Plus talent has nothing to do with what I was pointing out.

    WHY did they strip-down the sound for No Prayer??

    I'm not arguing quality here, i'm arguing genre tag. Bands like Poison and Bon Jovi were essentially pop acts with fuzzy guitars, and Motley Crue though they rocked hard and i'd understand a little more why they'd be called metal were super polished up and edgeless. Guns N' Roses were...

    I didn't think he was being silly lol. You should have seen the past forum I was on, it was chaos.

    Of course not, but I find his ability to play what he wrote at least a competent try on that album. These days he can't recreate it, but "Dyers Eve" and "Frayed Ends of Sanity" are the absolute peak of his playing. That album is when he was pushed to his absolute limits as a drummer and he...

    Official Star Wars Thread

    I grew up with all six of the films and still maintain that the original trilogy are masterpieces, whereas despite some of the brilliant redeeming features of Episode III, I struggle to stomach the prequels these days. That said, i'm super excited for this new one. Looks great.

    I'd say some of the stuff on Justice is pretty virtuosic. The time changes are ridiculously complex on some of those osngs.

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    Also I think it's clearly in good fun, even if that's generally not a good excuse. I will use paint next time, if there ever is one.

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    I'm very excited, feeling this kind of extravagant release is just the right thing for Maiden. This is the hilarious way I heard the news P.S: Apologies for the racist slur, I in no way endorse this kind of language but I just had to share this, as my friend's excitement is absurdly evident. If...

    To say Lars sucks is a bit much I think because back in the day the guy was really damn good. The And Justice for All album is a masterpiece of complicated drum-work. Yes he could also do very plodding, meat and potatoes stuff at times but Lars the reason for that is he always knew what would...

    Motörhead

    Ooh I like that.

    Motörhead

    Yeah I totally agree. They're by far the most punk-like metal band of the classics years. They're just such a fun band to listen to.

    Motörhead

    Thought i'd make a thread on all things Motorhead as I couldn't find one in the search tool. First thing I want to talk about though specifically is the misconception that every Motorhead album sounds the same. Now i'm not gonna act like they don't have a formula, and they can at times suffer...

    It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Metal brought the band to play, we've been going in and out of style, but we're guaranteed for refund isle, so let me introduce to you, the one and only broken snare, Sgt. Metal Lonely Angry Baaaaaaand.

    I'm not expecting that level of thrash but it isn't even Iron Man.

    Well that's fine, but if you're telling me "Wherever I May Roam" is metal, I don't buy it. Doesn't effect the quality of the song, I just don't see it.

    Metallica

    Well that's fair enough then. Both albums have the same structure, and Puppets mixes old ideas with new ones. Personally I think Orion is one of their best songs, so many great riffs within that song. As for the lack of catchiness, how can you forget the "You will do what I say when I say back...

    I still stand by that Master of Puppets is their most thought through. Takes all the ideas of the last album and refines them to perfection.
