Meh, they're just generic metalcore. Check out The Faceless' new CD, Planetary Duality. It is amazing and creative as well, technical death metal ftw!
Out of the four songs I have by them, all I hear are constant breakdowns, which makes their music rather boring. My friend's 13 year old sister loves them ---------------- Now playing on Winamp: Temnozor - Be Oden Narod Slavenski via FoxyTunes
I know right. Being the best Thrash Band of all time, paving the way for I would say more than half the bands you listen too.
They may have paved the way, but I still think they are overrated. Just as I think plenty non-mainstream bands are underrated. You may think they are the best, but I think they kind of stink, especially the drummer. The guitars are pretty good at some parts, but the singer and the drums I dislike. I think the drummer holds them back, they'd probably get some better stuff if they kicked him out. If I want to listen to something similar to Metallica, than I'd listen to Bullet for my Valentine. They are influenced by Metallica, but I think they take it up a notch to a much better level. I don't like thrash anyway. IMO.
People also seem to forget that Metallica is far from how it originally was to where it is now. So many band member changes, so many changes in the band a whole to 'modernize' the band, etc. Frankly, I respect Metallica, for the same reason I respect artists like Ozzy, Black Sabbath, etc. because they really did pave the way for more modern music, but after the Black Album, I don't really like anything by Metallica unless I am in a specific mood.
A bit of thrash is fun to play, but I'm into Killswitch at the mo'. Cool riffs, awsome singing/screaming.
