Members FitchFY Posted February 22, 2013 Members Share Posted February 22, 2013 Okay, so maybe a bit of a rant, but here goes... and not directed at you, Race! This is just something in general. I find an element of humor in it when metal fans are shocked by the behavior of metal musicians when it's selfish, stupid, aggressive, or plain silly. I mean, really? Really? Are we really shocked that a band who's last three albums have been called World Painted Blood, Christ Illusion, and God Hates Us All turns out to be a bunch of jerks? REALLY? You mean a guitarist who's such a tool has an entire chapter of his Wikipedia page designated to "Feuds" even butts heads with his bandmates? I mean... come on. I love me some metal, but Slayer has been the punchline to their own joke for the last fifteen years and they never realized it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REALLY? wow. i just lost a ton of respect for you, there. so now the representation of art speaks to the character of the artists??now, you might not like the content of the lyrics, or even the songs themselves, but your comment is akin to calling George Romero a jerk because of films titled, "Night of the Living Dead," and "Creepshow."why not just call this slayer thing what it is, just another band {censored}ed-up due to suits and contracts.
