I think your being too subjective with Trivium. I don't listen to it normally but I think it's decent for metalcore. The riffs aren't that bad, they have some kick to them. The solos are pretty good too. Besides the vocals there's nothing wrong with it.

The solos are decent, but other than that I can't stand these guys in any aspect.

[QUOTE=IheartSP]Metal is one of those things that royally pisses off anyone who doesn't normally listen to it.[/QUOTE]

Yes...it's quite fun. :D

I piss my friends off with my metal too, but I try not to get them too mad cuase I wouldn't wanna listen to their alternative.

I've been playing metal for my religion class at school. They all hate it, but I like it because they have to sit there and deal with it.

Go with some Mayhem :p

Hahahaha...I was planning on playing [I]Vital Remains - Dechristianize[/I] sometime. Stickin' it to the religious school system.

Are you forced to go there?

Half and half I guess. My entire family went to this school, so it was kind of expected that I would. Although I'm not religious, I would rather go there than any other school around. I've got plenty of friends, and I can feel safe in this school, which is more than I can say for nearby public schools.

I was in music class the other day at college and we had to bring in a cd so the class could analyse it. Pretty much everyone listens to light stuff like Hendrix or Jazz or emo, they were in for a shock when my friend put on Necrophagist then Bodom Beach Terror :lol:

I don't live in the city so public school isn't somewhere you'd get stabbed.

In music class the other day at my school we got to bring in a song with a mode. I went with Last December by Iced Earth, it's in E Phrygian.

But then again, isn't every song in a mode??

Besides Aeolian or Ionian he meant.

Ah right, makes sense.

You could always just resize it.

Thats what I had to do anyway, the image i'm using now was 80x80.

I just downloaded 2 Singery songs, The Bitch is Back and Spit on your Grave. Pretty fukkin' good I say.

I always found Sinergy to be a bit disappointing. It's sounds like they tried to be more traditional power metal with female vocals. I dislike Kim's voice, and the guitar playing sounds like they're holding back.

I think Spit on Your Grave is an amazing song, but it's the only amazing one I've heard by them.

Off Topic:

I just bought an album from the band Becoming the Archetype. They are seriously amazing.

I just got a new TV and computer mouse

I need to renew my WoW subcription, which I probably would be better off without.

Yeah, I might have a go at learning it, it'll be a great workout for alt. picking, sweeping, tapping, and playing riffs in triplets.

We are similar. :)

WoW looks fun, but I thought it was more expensive than it was worth. I prefer to play battle.net for free.

Who is Becoming the Archetype?

It seems expensive, but it's worth it.

They are a kickass metal band with some metalcore traits. I'll upload some songs later probably.

Lyrical themes = Christianity? :eek: Doesn't really sound like my thing, but I'm always open to new music. The genre = melodic death definitely appeals to me.

Haha, yeah. Trust me though, the lyrics are completely overpowered by pure metal.

I could deal with that then. I could always use something uplifting to contrast my selection of anti-religious black/death metal. Shadows Fall can't be the only non-evil band I own.

can someone tell me what is the best melodic song that CoB has come up with?

Hmm...I think Downfall might be the most melodic CoB song, or Kissing the Shadows.

I would say it's near impossible to say which CoB song is most melodic. Downfall I think is the most emotional though.
