Why don't you take your own advice but instead, drown your self in your toilet bowl.[/QUOTE]

That reminded me of Sin City, where the dude almost drowned in his own piss. Then another guy got his head dumped in a log-infested toilet bowl. That might not be too pleasant.

Interestingly, some conservative nutter chose that as the msot offensive scene in the flick. I would have though Elijah Wood's death scene would have been a little more offensive than that to someone so squeamish.

I mean, come on! Not to ruin the movie for anyone, but that is one of the best, goriest ironic deaths [i]ever[/i]. And wolves are just plain cool.

Shred Danson 04-05-2005 01:19 PM

Haha, I'm a conservative "nutter" and I wasn't even offended by any of it. That death scene was a little short though, mercifully for some. Maybe the most gruesome thing was Nick Stahl getting his nuts shot off and THEN ripped off. Goddam. Or the fact that Jessica Alba did NOT get naked :mad:

Ah well, you know the type I'm talking about. The kind that tries to get offended by something so they can start a fit over it.

[quote]That death scene was a little short though, mercifully for some. Maybe the most gruesome thing was Nick Stahl getting his nuts shot off and THEN ripped off. Goddam.[/quote]

Every guy in the theatre coiled inward in his seat and groaned at that scene, me included. As I said, Bruce Willis has never been more bad-***.

That [i]was[/i] annoying. Hers were the only **** we never got to see.

Well... I wouldn't have minded Miho getting naked either, so I suppose I can add that to the complaints. For some reason, Asian chicks become hotter as they become more deadly.

Blood Venom 04-05-2005 01:25 PM

The closest to being naked she has ever been was in Idle Hands. That halloween costume exposed most of her a[SIZE=2]ss[/SIZE]....and she has an a[SIZE=2]ss[/SIZE] to die for

Yeah, that scene made a bunch of guys yell "OH MY ****IN' GOD!" Yeah, Miho would've been nice to see "in the flesh"...

RiotUpstart 04-05-2005 06:29 PM

what would you guys consider Steel Attack?

Shred Danson 04-06-2005 08:54 AM

I wouldn't consider them.

Drone Master V 04-06-2005 09:39 AM

ahhh no i getit
cheers man good job

jaco jr 04-17-2005 04:42 AM

one correction - soad, i wouldnt put them in numetal
theyre more in a genre of their own
theyre not liek anything else

Bartender 04-17-2005 09:19 AM

Lots of bands technically have a unique sound, but that doesn't mean you have to put them in a genre all of their own.

crossface 05-28-2005 12:25 AM

up you beast

[QUOTE]What about Power Metal?[/QUOTE]
he talks about that in the traditional heavy metal
you never do talk about black sabbath in the traditional heavy metal, whats with that

The Mercenary highvoltage 06-30-2005 09:35 AM

People mostly ask me to what's the difference between power/trash/heavy/gothic and melodic metal when i let them hear it they mostly understand but to me the difference is simple Heavy is more rhythm and solo like TRash is less solo and more hard riffs Power is a little har dto explain for me(as i only like Helloween as power)
Gothic is lots of melodies like in nightwish whit the synthesiser. Melodic like Sonata arctica is obvious to hear like the way he plays the solo's on the guitar

atleast this is my oppinion

RiceMonster 06-30-2005 09:41 AM

Theres an "h" in thrash, and Nightiwsh and Sonata Arctica are both power metal. Gothic is stuff like Moonspell, allthough I know little about the genre as it isn't very big. :)

live theory 06-30-2005 11:41 AM

That was the ****. Great thread. Finally, someone contrasted black and death metal. I was waiting for that.

DemonicRubberDucky 08-14-2005 07:22 PM

What exactly would Zeke be?

very helpful thread... i can now show this to my mates and be like ave some of that.. i was right..

ween2424 10-13-2005 08:38 AM

You forgot stoner metal.

Ninja Bass Man 10-13-2005 10:15 AM

I have a question. So i can settle an argument, is Linkin Park any type of Metal, and if so, what type?

dUSK 10-13-2005 10:17 AM

Nu-Metal.

[QUOTE]Nu-metal is the newest craze to hit mainstream rock radio. Without trying to bash it too much, generally speaking the music structure is very simplistic. Lyrics cover subjects that are close to todays teens (depression, abuse, drugs etc). There are very few guitar solos and the one's that are there are typically very simple and short. Vocals can range from the more metal influenced to a fusion of metal and rap. Guitars are often downtuned or drop tuned. This genre is generally not very popular among listeners of other metal music, but it is the newest craze and therefore very promoted and heavily played on the radio. Bands: Slipknot, Mudvayne, System Of A Down, Papa Roach, P.O.D., [b]Linkin Park[/b], Disturbed.[/QUOTE]

Ninja Bass Man 10-13-2005 10:20 AM

THANK you! Sorry, I didn't notice it in the defs. I'm a n00b *sniff sniff*

dUSK 10-13-2005 10:22 AM

No problem. I'm happy I could help. :)

[QUOTE=Ninja Bass Man]I have a question. So i can settle an argument, is Linkin Park any type of Metal, and if so, what type?[/QUOTE]

Most nu-metal is not really metal... this includes Linkin Park

Some of their stuff is just pop music, some of it is hard rock

I can't think of a single song of theirs that I would classsify as metal

dUSK 10-13-2005 10:25 AM

They are at the popular end of the Metal spectrum, but that doesn't make them any less Metal.

loathed 10-13-2005 10:26 AM

Yes, that is true. i do consider linkin park only hard rock. if the term nu metal didnt exist. but i like some of their songs though.

[QUOTE=G_Mac07]They are at the popular end of the Metal spectrum, but that doesn't make them any less Metal.[/QUOTE]

The singing isn't metal, the drumming isn't metal, the guitar playing 90% of the time isn't metal.... need I go on?

[QUOTE=KittensInMicrowaves]The singing isn't metal, the drumming isn't metal, the guitar playing 90% of the time isn't metal.... need I go on?[/QUOTE]

Not for the moment. I'll download an album of my network tomorrow and give it a listen. If I feel compelled to argue after doing that, then I will.

Steerpike 10-13-2005 11:24 AM

[QUOTE=KittensInMicrowaves]The singing isn't metal, the drumming isn't metal, the guitar playing 90% of the time isn't metal.... need I go on?[/QUOTE]

Define metal drumming. Define metal guitarwork. Define metal vocals.

Last I checked, Michael Kiske never sang like Chris Barnes, Lemmy, or Rob Halford. Does that make Helloween less metal?

Oh shut up, you don't have the slightest clue to what you are talking about. Linkin Park is Nu-[b]Metal[/b] as in Metal that has hip-hop/funk influence. Their riffs are definately Metal styled, specifically Nu-Metal styled, and Chester Bennington does do 'metal vocals' so to speak, he screams and shouts and does clean singing. Linkin Park is not purely Heavy Metal, that's why we have [b]sub-genres[/b].

Also, define Pop-Music, I see no resemblance between Linkin Park and N'Snyc, maybe you mean ELECTRONICA. Once more, GENRE MIXING.

Shred Danson 03-21-2006 11:50 AM

I believe this thread needs a pretty good bump, what d'ya guys say?

oh boy, I'm going to have a heyday with you........

1. Nu-Metal does not automatically have hip hop or punk influence. Disturbed, Mudvayne, 40 Below Summer, etc. all have little or no influence of either kind. Nu-Metal is simply mainstream metal with electronics and keyboard usage(or whiny vocals........J/K).

2. Pop music can be defined as anything that is popular.....hence the term POP. Get it? Kataklysm would be pop if it were wildly popular on TRL. Do not define a genre by its popularity, it makes us all look like asses.
