It's not even metal. It's garbage. I can't see how they even sell records. Horrible, horrible band.

/hopes my band tours with them one day so I can tell them that

[QUOTE=Dimmu Burger;15570202]No matter how hard i try i can't enjoy Demon Hunter. Its just too Butt Metal.[/QUOTE]

explain to me how Demon Hunter fits into the "Butt Metal" category, because I actually like them. I think they have some pretty good songs. Some aren't all that great, but there are exceptions.

gmoneyguy 11-20-2007 01:46 PM

You liking them doesn't make them good.

illpressureurhinges1 11-20-2007 01:54 PM

I never said it did. I just wanted to know why he was considering them "Butt Metal"?

I apologise in advance because my categorization(sp?) of Butt Metal makes no sense whatsoever, but i'll try to explain.

Vocally: As far as singing, they usually use that accent that was made popular by Pearl Jam, STP and even Matchbox Twenty and Cher. Recent bands using this include but are not limited to: Crossfade, Breaking Benjamin, Seether (heavily), and Three Days Grace. As far as screaming its usually very one dimentional not really high nor really low screaming. Examples include: Five Finger Death Punch, Demon Hunter and Machine Head.

Guitars: Usually downtuned, not thrashy, not technical or intricate in any way, barely any palm muting and if there are any leads they are usually simple and/or effects driven. Most solos are equally lame.

Drums: Rarely using double bass in any sort of good way and rarely use blast beats. Also doesn't have much high end in the kick drum tone and said kick drum is lower in the mix than most metal.

Feel free to discuss this but try not to take it too seriously because its just a joke genre that i use to make fun of bands.

Thank you. I appreciate the thorough explanation. As for what you had to say, I understand where you are coming from. The vocals are kinda one-dimension, and the instrumentation is somewhat dull. I just felt that they had some catchy songs, but at the same time, I understand your reasoning. Again, thank you for the explanation instead of just calling me some bad name and telling me my opinion sucks. And you were right with the spelling of categorization.

Lol you are the first person to not get super pissed when i called a band they like Butt Metal. Thanks for the open mindedness.

Your welcome. I just wanted to try to understand why exactly you called them that in the first place, and now I kind of see it. So thank you for helping me "see the light". :)

Dimmu Burger 11-20-2007 02:52 PM

I wanna start making Anti-Butt Metal t-shirts. That would be fun. And maybe a list of bands on the back lol.

illpressureurhinges1 11-20-2007 02:56 PM

That would go well... So who would you put on there?

Dimmu Burger 11-20-2007 02:58 PM

The only two for sure are Demon Hunter and Machine Head. There are a lot more Butt Rock bands than Butt Metal.

illpressureurhinges1 11-20-2007 02:59 PM

I can understand Machine Head. They suck. Who for Butt Rock then?

Charizard 11-20-2007 03:44 PM

Wow this thread is so gay. Can we talk about good bands in the Christian scene like Cool Hand Luke or Olympia maybe?

illpressureurhinges1 11-20-2007 03:46 PM

Then start talking about them. Don't complain about us talking about something you don't like. And if it's so gay, why do you care anyway?

gmoneyguy 11-20-2007 03:47 PM

Cause its against the bible.

Charizard 11-20-2007 03:47 PM

Cool Hand Luke is a lot better live than on album. :o

Dimmu Burger 11-20-2007 05:06 PM

[QUOTE=illpressureurhinges1;15570609]I can understand Machine Head. They suck. Who for Butt Rock then?[/QUOTE]

Most of rock radio such as Crossfade, Breaking Benjamin, Seether, and Three Days Grace. Even Nickelback.

sixner 11-20-2007 05:31 PM

I really like Mute Math, a guy at work had me listen to them for a bit.. it was enjoyable. Not anything like i thought (Given MATH in their name, i assumed math metal stuff... way off, hah)

-Sixner

Charizard 11-20-2007 05:55 PM

Math metal is such a stupid term.

-Charizard

Txus 11-20-2007 06:15 PM

Some great bands in the genre though.

-Txus

Charizard 11-20-2007 06:18 PM

I wouldn't even consider it a genre though, a lot of it is just metalcore with "weird" time-sigs.

-Charizard

Txus 11-20-2007 06:32 PM

Metalcore? lol

-Txus

Charizard 11-20-2007 06:39 PM

I'm thinking mathcore lol ignore that. Math metal's the same thing though, just with metal.

-Charizard

Txus 11-20-2007 06:41 PM

Haha, I hate Math Metal tbqh...Math Rock is another story.

-Txusssssssss

Charizard 11-20-2007 06:41 PM

I hate math anything. :lol:

-Charizard

Txus 11-20-2007 06:42 PM

I hate pokemon.

-Txus

Charizard 11-20-2007 06:51 PM

I hate myself. :(

-Charizard

Charizard 11-20-2007 07:31 PM

Oh God, you just keep coming back for moar.

Txus 11-20-2007 07:31 PM

illpressureurhinges1 11-20-2007 07:32 PM

Hey, you weren't exactly trying to avoid conflict either.
