Now that R.R. is having his 25 anniversary , i was wondering what happen to the old bands?, they seem like overshadowed by the metalcore, nu -metal bands.
Also their preparing like an all star album, wich is good 'cause the artists in the project are awesome:

The good ones:
Rob Barrett (Malevolent Creation)
Matt Baumbach (Vision Of Disorder)
Dino Cazares (Fear Factory/Brujeria)
Steve DiGiorgio (Sadus/Death)
Marcelo Dias (Soulfly)
Robert Flynn (Machine Head)
Rhys Fulber (Fear Factory/Front Line Assembly)
Andreas Kisser (Sepultura)
Logan Mader (Machine Head)
Roy Mayorga (Soulfly)
Dave McClain (Machine Head)
James Murphy (Obituary/Disincarnate)
Tommy Niemeyer (Gruntruck)
Jeff Waters (Annihilator)
Jordan Whelan (Still Remains)
Christian Olde Wolbers (Fear Factory)
Glen Benton (Deicide)
Max Cavalera (Soulfly)
King Diamond (Mercyful Fate/King Diamond)
Peter Steele (Type O Negative)
John Tardy (Obituary)
Kyle Thomas (Exhorder/Floodgate)

The others:
Paul Gray (Slipknot)
Joey Jordison (Slipknot)
Andols Herrick (Chimaira)
Steve Holt (36 Crazyfists)
Nadja Peulen (Coal Chamber)
Dave Pybus (Cradle Of Filth)
Souren “Mike” Sarkisyan (Spineshank)
Acey Slade (Murderdolls)
Dez Fafara (DevilDriver/Coal Chamber)
Dani Filth (Cradle Of Filth)
Matthew K. Heafy (Trivium)

imo, this is gonna be better than the past all star projects by roadrunner, but what are your opinnions about this project?

NOTE:No Flamming please.

Should be interesting, I didnt like the other projects very much.

Roadrunner sold out to the MTV bands, and died back in the early nineties. A new label called Trendrunner has taken its place.

KittensInMicrowaves · 06-20-2005, 10:58 PM

Matt Heafey is as talented as anyone on your good list. Sorry you don't like the new trend of metal but if you bother to listen, its quite good

i lie to you if i say i like metalcore, but i didn't put it in the "other" list just because i didn't like it, it just that he is new and his name isn't quite a legend like the good list, in fact i think all the musicians in both lists are great, if they weren't i wouldn't bother to do a thread about it.

i don't think he's a fanboy, madball is a great band and they haven't change their style also Opeth, Brujeria, Nailbomb and other bands, you just have to listen all their records.

Deicide is so-so death metal, Sepultura has been cr*p since Max left, Madball is just plain garbage, King Diamond is outdated.....

Opeth
Trivium
KsE

are far and away RR's best acts at the moment

~~Volumnius Flush~~ · 06-20-2005, 11:52 PM

Malevolent Creation were on roadrunner weren't they? i'm pretty sure of it. they are really good.

they are in R.R in fact they release an :"the best of:malevolent creation" album as the roots of roadrunner.

bball_1523 · 06-21-2005, 12:03 AM

Opeth is the only band I really like on RR. They are still Opeth and that's a fact.

BlackFlag88 · 06-21-2005, 12:07 AM

even though i don't really like slipknot as much as i used to i'd still say corey taylor is...or was a really good singer...IMO...not the greatest but i thought he t'was good

hafez · 06-21-2005, 01:03 AM

Fear Factory, Coal Chamber, slipknot =

honestly most of the bands on roadrunner are a joke with the exception of Malevolent creation and a few others

deadinholywood · 06-21-2005, 02:04 AM
