    I love the bass playing there. It takes what would otherwise be a wall of sound and adds a lot of color to it.

    While I still think that nothing in the sequel touches the polyrhythmic part at the end of the original, I do think it is a better composed song overall. It takes everything from the original and adds a darker layer to it, almost as if the song takes place fully at night. Romeo’s solo may also...

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 5, Matches 79-84

    1. Sabbath because it’s not leftist rap metal. 2. Both are the most overplayed songs by each band, but I gotta give the edge to Schism. 3. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL 4. Dream Theater. I just don’t get this obsession with Death that everyone seems to have. 5. Scorpions. I dislike 97% of SOAD’s stuff. 6. Meh.

    I like Memory but I’m glad we got Until it Sleeps instead.

    Yeah but I’d rather have heard Battery over either!

    It really does. I love the bass lines in the middle over Lars’s insanely loud hi-hat. Easily my fav from that album and I’m glad we got to see it! Yeah… they can keep that one.

    Opeth

    After a few listens the song hit me, and now I quite like it. The mix isn’t great (the bass is once again overpowering, which is an odd statement coming from a bassist), but those growls hit like a semi and the chorus is catchy as hell. @JudasMyGuide I don’t love some of the clean vocal parts...

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 5, Matches 79-84

    @JudasMyGuide I’ll check out Swallow the Sun! As for misheard lyrics, I’m still a huge fan of the classics like “deadly badgers” and “fresh made tacos of the earth, diabolical beans.” There’s something to me about Mikael’s growls that no one else can capture; a Tyrannosaurical depth that I’ve...

    I used to be like you, not being able to get into Opeth because of this faeces-spewing you describe. Face of Melinda was the only song I liked. Then one bitter autumn day as the smell of burning wooden effigies filled the air, they just clicked. Now I’m a proud Opethophile, and there’s no going...

    Then Opeth should be your jam since you rarely get them for the majority of a song!

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 5, Matches 79-84

    One of the strongest rounds so far, regardless of the lack of Symphony X or Opeth!

    USA Politics

    She really did herself no favors putting that story in her book, even if most farmers would have done the same. I think it’s gonna be brutal. I’m already picturing her laughing awkwardly every time she doesn’t know what to say.

    1. That Hell song is hilarious. Easy pick. Bonus points for not being SOAD. 2. Megadeth easily. Sepultura is not for me. 3. Ugh. Helloween is far less generic, but I can’t stand the vocals. 4. LOLOLOLOL 5. I hate to vote against Dio, but this track is far from his strongest, while Tornado is one...

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 5, Matches 79-84

    Metallica and Slayer over Ozzy and the always overrated Motörhead. Sixth match was tough because I love The Siren’s uniqueness but I couldn’t vote against a Dio classic (even if Dio himself hated it). Fourth match was a painful 15 minutes. Threw @Magnus a bone because parts of his pick reminded...

    Easiest votes ever for Opeth, Armored Saint, Dream Theater (even though this one isn’t metal), and Myrath. I don’t care whatsoever about the other matches so I picked the least bad options. Also if I never hear another Priest song again I’d be perfectly fine with that.

    Damnit, now I have to vote for Ozzy.
