mcj metroid Posted April 21, 2007 Author Posted April 21, 2007 very nice music and quite difficult to play on piano. Porbably requires large hands. i Like it! 8/10 The fray(i'm guessing i'm going to be killed here anyway)
Nintendo Fan Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 The Fray are awesome, i recently bought their album. 9/10 System of a Down
The Bard Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 9/10 thy're a great band. :( Sucks . 2/10 How about... Sunn O)))
The Bard Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 I've never heard of Sunn O))) Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot you're the all knowing sage, and therefore nobody else on N-E could possibly know who Sunn are. Jamiroquai. Probably the worst pile of horsewank to pass for music these days.
arab_freak Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot you're the all knowing sage, and therefore nobody else on N-E could possibly know who Sunn are. Well excuse me for living in Egypt and having limited access to mainstream music.
weeyellowbloke Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 I think he was more implying the idea of the thread is to rate the above band, so if you've not heard of such and such a band it's probably better to leave it until one comes along that you do know (or do a bit of googling and find out who they are) Anyhoo, Sunn o))) I've just been listening to some stuff online. It sounds interesting, definately not your average metal band. Kinda think it sounds a bit like the metal answer to sigur ros, concentrating more on creating a mood through sound. Not sure if I could listen to it in large quantities though. Actually I'm quite enjoying the videos on their website, they look pretty awesome live, definately an experience. As such I shall award them one extra point taking them up to 7/10. There we go all bands rated or slated and we can all move on.
The Bard Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 Well excuse me for living in Egypt and having limited access to mainstream music. Sunn aren't what anyone would call mainstream. Ever.
Dan_Dare Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 Sunn are fucking amazing. They get massive fucking props from me as they play their live shows dressed as Monks, surrounded by candles. As I saw him last night, Mr Scruff
weeyellowbloke Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 Mr Scruff is amazing! He's not the most amazingly talented DJ in the world, but by god he knows how to keep people dancing and has a record collection to die for. Plus serving tea at his sets is just a genius idea. Can't wait to see him again in the summer! 9/10 Hmmmm, yep I'm going with my previous choice again, The Roots.

Standing around with a drink? dancing! waiting at the bar? dance while you do. fuck, I'm pretty sure I was dancing while I had a piss.
Oxigen_Waste Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 Sucks . 2/10 How about... Sunn O))) Damn... Sunn O))), on this here forum? You have guts. Have you had the chance to hear their album recorded with Boris? Excellent stuff.
Tom Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 Sunn0))) are great, really interesting bizarre stuff. I had the chance the see them play with Earth a while back, and stupidly I went to another gig instead. I really regret it now.
ThePigMarcher Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 Getting back on topic: Faith No More Will give them a 9/10 - absolutely incredible and unique at the time , although they lose a point for sucking big time when I saw one of their last ever UK gigs (I believe it was anyway) at the Brixton Academy. Another easy one for you peeps. Alice In Chains
Roostophe Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 Although I've only heard two songs, I like what I have heard. Would is a class song, and Them Bones is also, especially on Guitar Hero 2. Black Sabbath
BeerMonkey Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 never really heard any of there stuff before i saw them at download festival 2 years ago. thought they sucked really had high hopes but didnt think much of them 2/10 Deftones
Oxigen_Waste Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 never really heard any of there stuff before i saw them at download festival 2 years ago.thought they sucked really had high hopes but didnt think much of them 2/10 Deftones 2/10? You can't be serious... You just can't!!! It's Sabbath, dude!!! Just listen to their "Paranoid" Album!!! Anyway... deftones: White Pony - 10/10. Everything else - 6.5/10. A good band, with great songs, but unfortanetly, most of their albums are half great and half awful. Gojira
The Bard Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 Yesh, I was like WHAT THE FUCK? When I saw that 2/10. Going to see Heaven and Hell in November, should be awesome, hope they play some Dio songs too , donno if Iommi can hack it though Gojira: They're French, so that's 1 point off, the latest album I heard was From Mars To Sirius and it was pretty decent, very heavy, but I don't really think the musicianship was that hot, and as for all the claims of "Masterpiece!!" I wouldn't ever go that far. 6.5/10. Decapitated

I wouldn't ever go that far. 6.5/10. Decapitated Aw... c'mon, Gojira are great. Anyway, as for decapitated, I shall say only this: SPHERES OF MADNESS, or if you prefer english, 9.5/10. (Except for this last album... I don't really like their new style, along with the new vocal.) EDIT - Necrophagist
The Bard Posted April 25, 2007 Posted April 25, 2007 Just started listening to Necrophagist again, and oh my fucking god, they are one of the most immense Death/ Thrash bands I've ever come across, such blistering musicianship, and some pretty amazing songs to boot. Nothing stands out as particularly classic would be my only criticism, still, 9/10. Deicide. (Dude, us metalheads are stealing this thread )
The fish Posted April 25, 2007 Posted April 25, 2007 P.S. When it comes to Maiden albums, The X Factor is easily the most mature and epic. Even if it isn't the most 'metal'. In my opinion Dance of Death is the best, if only because it has Rainmaker on. I find it more 'rock' than 'metal'.
Dan_Dare Posted April 26, 2007 Posted April 26, 2007 fuck you metalheads! I'm rebooting interest in this thread right now! Talking Heads see what I did? I used a band people know about!
Oxigen_Waste Posted April 26, 2007 Posted April 26, 2007 fuck you metalheads! I'm rebooting interest in this thread right now! Talking Heads see what I did? I used a band people know about! Deicide is just as known as the Talking Heads, you know? Just cause you don't know about them, it doesn't mean we don't. Anyway, Talking Heads, an almost perfect band, in every single aspect. 9.5/10. Yann Tiersen
