i cant wait for the Weeknd to remix Simple Death since it's the most radio friendly song i've ever heard on a so-called metal album.

but seriously. if you're going to make doom metal, actually make sure to include the metal part.

it isn't doom metal, and isn't meant to be.
like I'm seeing a Modern Baseball fan criticizing this album for being "radio friendly" and I'm thinking THIS fuckin guy right here ; [

if emo-pop didn't always have a radio friendly sound you would have a point. too bad it's always had a radio friendly sound. meanwhile doom metal has never gotten radio time outside of Black Sabbath and that shit is tame as fuck compared to whats being made today. i don't want to hear watered down, boring, generic, pop-shit doom metal and that's what this is.

so you're saying that because a genre has never had much mainstream appeal then artists shouldn't be able to push the boundaries and create an album that incorporates elements of mainstream songwriting or tropes, that will in turn spike interest for the genre and encourage listeners to investigate more purist artists as well?

except emo originally was more deeply-rooted in hardcore, and not very radio-friendly. I could say "doom-pop was always radio-friendly" and that would make as much sense as what you just said.
are you messing around and secretly enjoy this, or do you actually agree with the things you're typing out

good thing i said emo-pop and not emotive hardcore, right? even if i did say emotive hardcore, are you seriously gonna tell me that Fugazi is not an insanely popular band?

popular =/= radio friendly. and Rites of Spring (who predate Fugazi) probably didn't get much mainstream radio attention.
and why is this point even being argued. being accessible isn't a negative. you criticized this album for being accessible, and I pointed out the irony. end of story.

pretty sure any and all doom metal is more accessible than this

13 Songs sold over 3 million records back in 1989. they aren't some underground band. all of my friends know who they are, hell even my dad does and his favorite band is Boston.
i'm also just gonna throw out that someone in my extreme metal group agrees with me: http://i.imgur.com/QdZ2hIR.png?1

one might even go as far as saying we're having the perfect example at hand

no jimmy that's not how it works. if i said that i like Evanescence but hated this for being radio friendly THAT would be ironic.
|

idk man i don't think i've ever heard a fugazi song in my life and i'm the music authority here so
|

"someone in my extreme metal group"
sounds like plebsturbed
