You stupid. Didn't I send you PTES?

masterchaos 10-01-2007 07:08 PM

Suicide eh? Not over a band that I cant help but laugh at every time I listen...I guess I did almost die from laughter so thats a possibilty. Maybe the label scout killed himself after realizing he [I]actually[/I] got them signed.

I wouldnt give it to a musical store for fear that someone will buy it, listen to it, and in turn kill themselves or the people around them listening to that poor excuse for music.

Just my opinion though...No need to kill yourselves

Niflheim 10-01-2007 07:09 PM

kill yourself

masterchaos 10-01-2007 07:11 PM

Lead by example

i think hes got a point. it is a pretty lame excuse for music. but then again, its just an opinion, whether bad or good.

Or maybe Jacob Bannon is reaping in the benefits running his own label, designing cover art, making art of his own and writing highly acclaimed music.

Yet you like NH more?

Equus 10-01-2007 08:36 PM

petitioning is their only album worth listening to

Tyler 10-01-2007 08:37 PM

Jane Doe is best for this guy

masterchaos 10-01-2007 09:36 PM

I dont find anything listenable about it. For about 30 seconds on each song theres a pretty cool passage or riff, but then the rest of it comes in and everyone is trying to be louder than the other.

And how the vocalist can be considered anything but horrible is beyond me

Niflheim did you kill yourself or what? Just curious if I should obey you :rolleyes:

Tyler 10-01-2007 09:39 PM

Will you shut the **** up until you get a real argument?

masterchaos 10-01-2007 10:15 PM

How is that not real? Thats the impression I get from their "music". You havent argued how they're better than what I think so there really isnt one.

Why dont you tell me what makes them so appealing to you.

Tyler 10-01-2007 10:16 PM

All you're saying is "oh they're so noisy and loud and jacob bannon is horrible"

i am the robots 10-01-2007 10:24 PM

I know you were targetting Tyler, but I find Converge extremely enjoyable for a number of reasons, mostly emotional connection, lyrical content, their creativity, and their catchiness.

And I want to know what's so "noisy" about this:

masterchaos 10-01-2007 10:25 PM

I dont see what is so great about "YAYAYA!! YAYA!! YA!! YA!! YAAAAAAA!!!!"?

What sort of talent does it take to just scream into a microphone? I dont feel that yelling incoherently counts as a form of musical talent. And noise (an unpleasing sound to the ear that can result in physical agony) is all that comes to mind when I hear the music...Minus the 30 seconds I spoke of before.

So anyways...Why do you like them? What makes you enjoy them?

Tyler 10-01-2007 10:27 PM

The fact that you think it's noise leads me to believe your ear is ridiculously untrained.

[QUOTE=masterchaos;15361970]I dont see what is so great about "YAYAYA!! YAYA!! YA!! YA!! YAAAAAAA!!!!"?[/QUOTE]

You're saying you can't make out any of his lyrics? Are you even paying attention?

I know he's a bit more incoherent than some, but wow.

masterchaos 10-01-2007 10:44 PM

I try to pick out the words but the sound of his voice doesnt help either. I like it when a vocalist actually makes an attempt to annunciate...Mikael Åkerfeldt is a vocalist, not Jake Bannon. My ears are perfectly fine.

Its like a paradox, how anal most of you are about music, yet enoy something like Converge...and you still havent said what you like about them.

John Fahey 10-01-2007 10:45 PM

i really enjoy the vocalist in the group Kill Switch Engage, fantastic chaps.

Can you understand Skinless' shitty *** singer?

Did you ignore my post addressing this sir?

[QUOTE=John Fahey;15362052]i really enjoy the vocalist in the group Kill Switch Engage, fantastic chaps.[/QUOTE]
Howard or Jesse?

John Fahey 10-01-2007 10:52 PM

the black gentlemen that does the gospel vocals is utterly fantastic. do you think perhaps i could do a recording with the ol' chap?

The perfect blend of rage, technicality and passion. Their music serves as an excellent catharsis and can be taken on many levels. Jacob Bannon's vocals are as earnest as any, and the "rarara" of their later albums perfectly cohesive with the ferocious drumming and dissonant guitars. They've evolved beyond "hardcore kids with rehashed slayer riffs" into a venerable powerhouse, seemlessly blending metal and hardcore without sounding like they belong to either.

No actually I didnt see this, but I was talking to Cocaine to begin with. It touches you emotionally and right on, good for you I can respect that.

What was so noisey about it? Well min. 1:08 to about 1:40 was extremely noisey for me...The constant b-movie screeching and dissonance of the notes is just too much. The opening wasnt too bad but the second the vocals kick in its over. More isnt always better

edit to Coke: Thank you for finally stating your full opinion. I still disagree with you 200% but its whatever.

Tyler 10-01-2007 11:00 PM

The vocals are amazing.

1:08-1:40 is groovy as **** too, and the bit after is gnarly. you're crazy.

masterchaos 10-01-2007 11:09 PM

I'll be crazy then
