The algorithm they have for working out a suitable pause in the broadcast to break for an ad is hilariously bad. On my desktop PC (probably because I'm signed into google elsewhere), no ads. But also I have Adblock Plus installed. Dont use my mobile to access much on line ie Youtube but none on my laptop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvin Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Open to any 'heavy' music...right up to the point where the vocalist sounds like they're clearing a fur ball from their throat, retching, sounding like they're almost about to vomit, clearing mucus from the throat or any other similar noises. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I downloaded Firefox for Mac and tried Youtube. Got adverts then realised I have Adblock plus on Safari but not on Firefox. Downloaded Adblock plus onto Firefox and I am now ad free on YouTube. What an incredible relief. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, there's not even one (visible) tattoo in Gojira! In one previous post LOG and Fiver Finger Death Punch were lumped together. No! While LOG are mighty, hyper aggressive and and don't do sappy ballads or whine about how hard they've been done by, FFDP are the natural heir to Limp Bizkit, except that Ivan bloke is an even bigger tool than Fred Durst. FFDP are fkin awful. Their lyrics are among the worst in any genre. LOG I like - some of the guitar & drumming is really intricate, which I hadn't noticed so much on the cd's but more when I've seen them live at Download Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubit Posted June 7, 2021 Author Share Posted June 7, 2021 Five Finger Death Punch are right up my street. I love their sound and the balance between clean and heavy vocals. I couldn't care less if their singer is a tool just as I don't care that Limp biz kit have a tool for a singer. Let's face it there is no bigger tool than Bonio but U2 have some good songs.

Bolo Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Dissapointing to read the disrespect on here for other people's likes/fave music. Much goodness in this thread too luckily. There's no heavy enough for me personally, although extreme and heavy are not synonyms. While the Zorn type free jazz influences make for extreme music it often lacks the impact to be heavy I think.

bassintheface Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Love Stravinsky and also this.... My mate is the guitarist in this band - not a massive fan of this style generally but I totally respect the skills and playing chops etc.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoulderpet Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) This heavy [YouTube] Although I love styles that blend crushingly heavy parts with melody like the below [YouTube]https://youtu.be/3QeW-tyRbl8[/YouTube]https://youtu.be/3QeW-tyRbl8 Edited June 8, 2021 by shoulderpet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I could probably go up to about a six and a half on a scale of zero to eleven. Anything heavier than that would probably make me feel a bit queasy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen much in the way of disrespect, just expressions of love it/hate it and of course, pointing out how metal (sometimes ironically but not always!) becomes a parody of itself... I see far more vitriol toward rap (which also suffers from the same same-ness and occasional daftitude)! Just shows how one man's "hey that's awesome in the truest sense of the word!" is another's "wtf is that awful racket, kids nowadays don't know how to make music" etc... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
