so what are your credentials to be appointed such an esteemed role such as Official Sound Nazi?
One should listen to whatever suites his or her ears -- i understand what he's saying, i don't care for the copycat vibes -- but you also don't hear me telling other people they're not allowed to play it/enjoy it. Peoples opinions vary just like their tastes in music -- it happens. When you're dealing with something as subjective as personal opinion on what sounds "good", you're not going to see eye to eye with anybody, not exactly at least.
I listen to Mütiilation (obviously) -- for those of you that don't know they're a french black metal band -- now none of my friends like it, but it doesn't stop me from enjoying it. And to reverse my example -- i have a friend that listens to Forsth, and i can't stand that band to me it sounds like Gollum singing about his precious. It could curdle milk -- but i don't openly attack the fans of this music or his opinion on it because mine is different. I know my opinion doesn't mean anything and im not arrogant enough to think my opposing view could sway them from it.
I think the metal community is too hostile to its own. Like i always say, "all metal is good metal until proven other wise or grind", and yes - thats a tongue-in-cheek comment, i do enjoy some grind on occasion -- but not often.
