03.17.12 | Yeah, It's obvious I like their rap metal songs more. I forgot to say I also don't have a few songs on Slipknot either (Eeyore and Get Up). Neither of these albums are fantastic in my view, but I just listened to them, so, felt like rating the songs. The really good ones end at 8. The ok ones go to 13 and the ones I can't stand are the last 2, specifically. |
TheZehan
03.17.12 | Yeah, It probably is, but it's one of the best I've listened to yet. (but I'm not blown away like I expected) |

03.17.12 | Iowa>all the rest of their shit. |
TheZehan
03.17.12 | I listened to it, just didn't like it. (23 - Iowa, 24 - Skin Ticket). Forgot bout that one. |
TheZehan
03.17.12 | It's supposed to be though. There is no real deep stuff on it (granted, I've never cared about how deep music is). Self-titled (3/5) Iowa (1.5/5) |
VinVal
03.18.12 | Not bad actually the young me woulda agreed/shook your hand/shanked you |
Shuyin
03.18.12 | left behind? |
WashboardSuds
03.18.12 | always thought the second half of Disasterpiece was awesome |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | Thanks VinVal for agreeing/murdering me. I said I only have parts of Iowa (mostly because I don't want "New Abortion", "The Heretic Anthem", and "Left Behind" for personal reason and meanings. You know what I mean by the titles/lyrics). And Disasterpiece is pretty effed up. Didn't the band get sued because someone murdered someone based on that song? (let alone the chorus is stupid and actually really annoying) |
Shuyin
03.18.12 | dude!!
i cant even.. |
Turtlestlker
03.18.12 | lol not getting music because of the lyrics is fucking stupid, and trying to blame the murder of someone on music is even more ridiculous....if someone is going to murder somebody they have many more problems then music. |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | I just read it on Wikipedia (great source, I know). It seemed believable though. And two of those songs call out my religion, and the other my morals (so I din't want to listen to them). Actually, I listened to them, but didn't like any of them enough to change my mind. None would made 17 or higher. |
Shuyin
03.18.12 | people got problems and blame it on music.
kvlt |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | No, they are negative to my personal religious/political views. For instance, I love Rise Against (very different politically, but I don't find them offensive). Those three songs, I would probably find offensive. |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | I can choose to listen to certain songs or not. They weren't fantastic songs anyway, so they weren't worth it. |
Shuyin
03.18.12 | lol, youve just proven that your religion makes you close minded |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | It can. I have serious problems with people making obvious fun at it (like "Left Behind" for instance. The entire song jokes about us all being left behind and how he wants to fight my god, like in "The Heretic Anthem". Same principle). |
Shuyin
03.18.12 | if this band insults your religion so much, why did you bother rating theyr songs?
*confused* |
KjSwantko
03.18.12 | Zehan you're such a fag, I'm Christian too and thrash and jam hard as fuck every single day. It's just music. |
Yazz_Flute
03.18.12 | Subliminal Verses and All Hope is Gone are better than these albums.
Eyeless is one of the better songs on their self-titled, though. |
Shuyin
03.18.12 | sup KJ. lol take it easy, its a kid.
we need to work slowly and painfully on the conversion process. |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | Long story short, I saw these guys were compared to Demon Hunter a lot (and I'm a huge DH fan). I had to look them up and see if I liked them. And I have morals set for myself. As far as music goes, the only thing I refuse to listen to is something that outright calls out Christianity. That's it. I don't care about language, politics, or anything else. Hope you understand. |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | I like you Flutter... your funny. It's ironic because the song is called "no god", but I belief in god, so I'm offended. Funny stuff |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | I know, never would've thought of it myself! |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | And Yazz, I expect/hope those albums are better. These were major disappointments. |
VinVal
03.18.12 | You shouldnt cut yourself short of anything because it disagrees with something that you believe in, especially with music and more importantly with metal |
CrackeTheSkull
03.18.12 | Yet you have Trivium - Ascendancy 3.5'd which has a song on it that calls the Christian God "manufactured." |
KILL
03.18.12 | do nufin bitchslap |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | Crack, there is a pretty big difference between Ascendacy and "The Heretic Anthem" where the chorus is "If your 555 then I'm 666". A really big difference, and I didn't know that either (probably didn't understand it in whatever song it's in). Kill, Isn't that off of FMKR? (haven't listened to it yet) |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | And the other thing. I did listen to them before I said I wasn't gonna listen to them and got rid of them. I didn't like them anyway, so there was no reason to keep something I DIDN'T LIKE that offends me. |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | I know, I have it. I like it. It isn't nearly as obvious lyrically as these. And I think it's my choice what I find offensive vs. offensive enough to get rid of. |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | And your Jesus's best friend aren't you. Again, the ironic things you say crack me up. |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | Then you would've sinned for deceiving me into looking up a Dark New Day song, instead of a Christian song, like you said. So you, my saviour would be going to hell. |
TheZehan
03.18.12 | My bad, and if you were Jesus, and sinned, then you couldn't have created me since you sinned, thus you broke your own law. Oh well, hate to leave the party, but I got church tomorrow at 7, so I want at least a few hours sleep. Heavenly dreams |

ObjectiveTaste
03.20.12 | Scissors and Skin Ticket are two of the best songs out of those two... |
TheZehan
03.20.12 | Just don't like em' |
TheZehan
03.20.12 | Sup, what's happenin'? |
TheZehan
03.20.12 | Just bein my lame christian, nickelback lovin self. |
TheZehan
03.20.12 | Might of been giving Slipknot a couple of listens as well (whenever I want to mix up my usual mainstream style.) |
CrackeTheSkull
03.20.12 | Cool story Satan-Worshiper. |
mete0ra
06.10.15 | @TheZehan: Props to you dude for keeping rules about what you're gonna listen to (I'm Christian too and so can relate) - and for admitting to liking Nickelback - but there's no need to go to war over these things. Also - "I saw these guys were compared to Demon Hunter a lot" - wouldn't it have been the other way round since DH got their start when Slipknot were big?
@KjSwantko: "I'm Christian too" - wouldn't have guessed it from the rest of your comment :P |
