Who is this Daemonic guy? All he does is post about negative shit. Crying
like a little bitch, "Metallica sucks now"... "They aren't good musicans"...
"My pussy hurts!" They have 12 step programs for chronic losers like you.
You should post your misery in alt.whining.bitches. Oh, and by the way,
Reload is one of there finest albums. Any person with a thimbleful full of
musical brains would recognize this fact. We'll see if you do. Wimp!

Ha Ha Ha, Looks like a personal assault on Daemonic to me. . .
It's no secret that this "Daemonic" is into Death Metal and once was a
Metallica fan (he's always referring to DeathM, mostly using it to put down
Metallica's talent). The only thing I don't understand is why he continuously
posts in this ng. Jesus Christ, he posts 100X more than anyone else! It's
funny though, b/c he has no where near as many posts on
alt.rock-n-roll.death.metal. I WONDER WHY????????

Maybe he's just hooked on putting Metallica fans in their place? Maybe we
should concentrate on putting him in his place for once. I think he's too
worried about being the "ultimate ng god". He probably eats, sleeps, and
shits at his computer.

But oh well, there's no such thing as a "perfect world", so we must endure
all of the DAEMONIC'S out there.

Yea but you will and they will when it doesn't sell and they don't have a record
contract. Then their music will change and they will be labeled "Sellouts" in your
book. Also why in the hell do you post on this newsgroup if the only thing you have
to say about Metallica is negative remarks?

ooh, i'm scared...maybe i'll cry like some of the mama's boys on the
newsgroup? maybe i'll write something "really angry" about how
everyone else sucks because they think differently from me and they
dont care about my emotions and my feelings?

no, i wont. i'm not a "delicate flower", or any shit like that, much
like 99% of the people here who obviously cant deal with people
talking back to them. i know it's hard being a wuss, but i wont call
you any names...

>It's no secret that this "Daemonic" is into Death Metal and once was a

i put down metallica's talent nowadays because there aint much. i use
death metal as an example. i like the old metallica shit.

fuck, why you wasting your parents money on that private school of
yours when you aint learning anything?

more interesting topics here. go back a couple of months, and check
the topics about art - i was into those, i debated them. YOU ARE AN
IDIOT.

wait, i shouldnt've said that, it'll scar you
emotionally...uhh..."it's nice that you feel that way, but even though
it was incorrect, i still appeciate you for who you are, you beautiful
person you..."

wouldnt it be nice if everyone talked to you so nicely? AINT GONNA
FUCKING HAPPEN...

i dont give a shit about the newsgroup. i care about the debate that
goes on within it. i also enjoy making people like you whine in high
pitched, nasal voices about how mean i am.

Your little poem is so cool. Your a deep thinker... oh wait! you didn't
write it. You remind me of that Daria bitch on Beavis & Butthead. I think we
realized you don't like Metallica anymore about, oh, 4000 posts ago. I heard
of beating a dead horse but this is fucking ridiculous! You are the
incessant whiner who hangs around the newsgroup spilling your guts about
Metallica. What's wrong? Can't find anyone with brains in the deathmetal
groups to talk too? Your not hurting anyone emotionally Daemon, but it is
apparent you have weird emotional attachment to Metallica. What's wrong? Did
you write James a fan letter and he didn't reply?

Yeah, keep dreaming buddy. Everyone wants success and money. Just because
they suck and no one will by their shitty albums, they have to rationalize it
and say "We don't want your money anyway." If you belive them, then you're

i'm no expert on how long labels hang around, but when a band gets
kicked off a label for whatever reason, they go to another. century
media, nuclear blast, roadrunner, and earache are pretty damn big
labels, and they're not going anywhere. there are just as many small
labels that have been around for some time (misanthropy, head not
found, candlelight)...

more often then not, the bands break up for some reason (see "at the
gates").

moreover, this shit has been going on since '86 or so.

Nice.

I think you put too much thought into music. When you strip music down to the
basics of it, you see that one song is no different that the next. To say
that this arrangement of notes has more integrity than that arrangement is
absurd. I love it when people think they "understand" music better than the
average moron.

Who? Never heard of them.

Sure it is, as in the blues influenced sense and basic balls to the wall rock. But as
"their" own past, its the furthest thing from it.

Of course.... this doesn't worry some people (like me).

I have to admit though, ReLoad is scaring me a little (in a bad sense).

I think that this group suffers from the opinion VS opinion wars... you
know, like a Black Metal fan argueing with a hard rock fan type thing, which
has been the reason (as I'm sure many others) for me not posting as
frequently as in the past.

Of course... seeing that you and others on the death metal newsgroup don't
like hard rock, it'd be pretty hard to get any of them to say they like new
metallica.

OK. New Metallica is certainly very blues-based. BUT, there were many
aspects of old Metallica that were very /not/ blues-based, especially in
Kirk's solos. In that sense, new Metallica is "older" than old
Metallica, in that the blues structures that the "new" stuff is based
on, has been around for half a century, while certain aspects of
Metallica's playing prior to the black album were rather modern.

Moral: If you want to "move forward" and "experiment," do something
that bands haven't been doing since the 50's.

Why bother to make music if you have to twist it into something
"marketable?" Why not just pursue some other line of work? I hear the
software industry's pretty lucrative right now...

Question (and you all better answer it):

Why is an album that sounds like shit, but sells five million copies,
considered to be superior to a really good album that sells only five
thousand?

"sounds like shit" is a matter of opinion
as is "really good album"
i would think that the five million people who buy said album either
a)dont think it sounds like shit
b)are going through a phase(see milli vanilli, vanilla ice, disco)
c) are dumb for buying something they think sounds like shit.
now for the album that sells 5,000 copies.....
a) the band is on a small label
b) there are only 5,000 people that have heard of the band AND don't
think they suck

>"There are two different groups of people; those who are constantly

This quote sucks balls and i'll explain why.
Popularity doesn't infer quality.
art is judged individually by all.
and if you aren't satisfied by the bands you listen to, than feel free
to look for a "better" band, but realize that once again better is a
matter of opinion,
If i feel that i can't find a better band than my own, then i am lazy
according to your definition.but i am not lazy, so your definition or
quote fails
heres another test for your definition......
who is the best band???
if you answer, then your definition fails, because it says there is
always a better band out there
or what if the band that i think is the best is not well known???

Because it's more popular and popularity determines the quality of music.

You should have gotten it by now...

that's because they're "small" labels.

if you're referring to CM, nuclear blast, etc. that's because they're

I don't get paid for listening to music so therefore I don't travel around and promote my
listening to music. If I got paid I would damn sure travel for it and promote it.
Listening to music isn't an art, not unless your dance or some shit like that to it. Its
cool to make art and all of that, but you don't know the inside "business" to music. If
you did you would reconsider your comment on how bands under small music labels make
"art". It isn't art no longer once you have signed on the dotted line, no matter HOW
small the record label, they are all guided by the big label that is their distributor.

_writing_ music is an art. listening is just appeciation.

dance music seems to me like a joke. "we have a 4/4 beat on the bass
drum...lets see if we can throw in a note or two on bass, and there's
our song!"

A) it's not bands on small labels that make art, just that the bands i
listen to arent particularly popular and therefore have to stay on
small labels. (just a clarification)

B) many small labels are made because the people are into metal and
want to see quality music promoted - i think wild rags would be a good
example of that.

C) labels have nothing to gain and everything to lose by trying to
tell a band what to sound like - many a band have left a label because
of stupider reasons - most people in the crowd that buys that style of
music have enough of a discerning ear to notice that a band is trying
to sound exactly like a "generic" band, and wont buy it. most labels
cater to such a select group (how many death/black fans do you think
there are?) that telling them to sound a certain way would probably
turn off all the listeners (e.g. saying "sound more like the trend of
the day" would alienate genre fans, and wouldnt get any mainstream
fans either (still too "different")).

D) text from the lyric book to cynic "focus":

"This music represents the artists' attempt at open expression of
emotion. We hope you will be open to the uniqueness of thiese pieces.
Truth, integrity, and strength have been the FOCUS of Cynic...join us
in our quest."

some people have the simple human decency to not be fucking dishonest
liars.

moreover, what happens is, a big band (in terms of metal) can pretty
much be on any label they want, and a small band is never going to get
noticed amongst the other 10,000 bands if they sound exactly the same
as the rest of them. another reason not to fuck with the music.

see, a fucking huge label like columbia can do whatever they want,
because most of the bands on the label are looking for money first,
and moreover, even if they do alienate a few bands, they have HOW MANY
MORE that will make them consistant money?

moreover, check some of the band's demos...the music style is usually
the same.

Well, as someone already mentioned, "shit" and "really good" are
subjective, but this is a commerce-driven society and we equate hype and
profit with good taste. Basically, humans are fucking stupid;)

Sigh.....
I guess I should add my 2 cents..

I play in a 'metal' band for no other reason than to make music. I love music
(all sorts, especially heavy) and have been writing it forever.
BUT...
When we come out with a brand new song and stuff, we tend to take it out to
clubs, etc. and see what people think. This doesn't change our opinions of
the music, it doesn't change the music, but we, like EVERY artists in EVERY
field, like to be appreciated for what we do. In general our music tends to
be appreciated (and it has 'grown' musically for the last 6 years). Each time
we try something new, it tends to be appreciated as well. I love art, and
many of my artistic opinions coincide with other's. This, in my opinion, is
Metallica's position. Their music is, was, and likely always will be
incredibly cool. No matter what 'style' they choose to play, it will sound
good to many who listen without prejudice.

Now, by the definitions of many on this newsgoup I would be considered a
sellout. Last time i checked, I don't FEEL like a sellout.....I love my
music, and the day I stop loving it is the day i stop. I'll bet my guitar
that is the exact same way Metallica feels.

Do you guys honestly think they don't KNOW that many diehards would be
disappointed by their 'new' direction? Now, if that were to stop them from
playing what they wanted to....THAT, in my opinion, and ONLY that would be a
sellout. As far as I'm concerned, on Load, Reload, and stuff they are being
just as true to themselves as they have always been. None of it sounds
fabricated to me.

Even though I wasn't overly crazy about Load (I love some of the songs, but not
all), I still like the band and respect them. Do yourselves a favor and
imagine yourselves in their position.

Still a fan,

E.

i agree. as long as you're not letting other people's opinions shape
your art (which you're not), there's absolutely nothing wrong with
that.
