alive in athens

Alive in Athens is arguably the greatest live album ever recorded. This fantastic album proves that Matt Barlow truly has one of the best voices in metal ever. If you don't own this album, get out to the store and buy it.

Set "Iced Earth rules. Alive in Athens is a fantastic album."

metal

TRUE Metal is the most under appreciated style of music today. There are many good, TRUE, metal bands that exist. However, shit like Slipknot, Korn, System of a Down, and (recent) Cradle of Filth have given this genre a bad name in the mainstream. Thus, all the good bands were forced to remain obscure. This is one thing that seperates the TRUE metalheads, from the posers. The posers are the stupid kids who claim to be metalheads, yet listen to nothing but slipknot while claiming to be "Hardcore". The TRUE metal fans are the ones who appreciate bands that are not well known to the media whores that MTV controls. TRUE metal fans and TRUE metal bands are the 2 last remaining hopes of the genre.

Poser "Hey, man slipknot is the most fuckin' Brutal metal ever!"

Set "GTFO!!!" *plays Iced Earth CD.*

Advent Children

Advent Children is a movie based on the popular game Final Fantasy VII. Truth be told, this movie sucked, but good luck getting any Final Fantasy junkie to admit that. As we all know, Final Fantasy VII was a great(albeit overrated)game. Square knew this as well, and so, this movie was made. The story is a poor excuse to have the two most popular emo characeters from the Final Fantasy series get into a huge epic fight. But the story didn't matter to the fans, they just creamed their pants as soon as Cloud and Sephiroth pulled out their giant swords and started swinging.

Final Fantasy Fanboy "Hey Set! Wasn't Advent Children a great movie!?!"

Set "Sure it was. If by great you mean: A poor story, a poor script, poor voice acting, and a bunch of cell phones. But i guess all that's ok, because the two emos had a big, overblown fight scene."

pyramaze

A progressive power metal band that pwns. Melancholy Beast and Legend of the Bone Carver are awesome. Plus, they now have Matt Barlow, the greatest vocalist ever.

Pyramaze kicks your ass.

Dragonforce

Dragonforce is a power metal band that somehow managed to gain a huge fan base and a ton of media attention, even though better bands exist. Dragonforce isn't a terrible band, however their fan base has caused them to become vastly overrated, turning the group into one big fatass moon that is now blocking the better bands from coming into the light. Their vocalist also sounds like he needs to go to a different genre, as his voice doesn't fit metal at all. Dragonforces guitarists are quite talented actually, but they aren't quite as good as the fans make them out to be.

When recording in the studio, Dragonforce manages to achieve an epic feeling to their music, however their live performances are probably among the sloppiest of metal bands today.

Dragonforce fan "Hey dood! Did you see Dragonforce live! Oh man, that was the most kickass thing i've ever seen!!!"

Set "Yeah, if by kickass you mean sloppy riffs and a singer who can't sing or keep up with the music."

Dragonforce fan "Shut up! Dragonforce is the heaviest metal known to man!!"

Set "O rly? Is that what you think? Nice job proving you don't listen to very much metal. GTFO."

KoRn

KoRn is a band that pioneered the Nu-Metal genre. This of course means that it spawned a bunch of other shitty bands that are even worse than it, although that's pretty hard to imagine. KoRn's fan base consists of whining bitches who think their life is horrible, when in reality, there is nothing wrong. The KoRn fan base will also argue that the band is hated among metal heads do to it's different sound. In reality, different is a poor word to use, more like shitty. KoRn has ruined the Metal genre and spawned countless posers who are just in it for the money (Just like KoRn is).

Set "I like to think of KoRn as crap, that proceeded to spawn more crap."
