First of all, I posted that to wind up OP, especially since he was such a pompous ass. And, yes it's one of the many artists across various genres I like. I never said you have to like it. I also do not have to explain my musical taste to you or anyone else.


But to call bands like Seether 'modern metal' is just laughable. It's not even good nu-metal, which was crap neo-grunge in itself.

There are more melodic Mastodon songs out there, but Scott Kelly's vocals in this one makes me happy.


 



A bit more modern sounding than the previous two, but an example of a vocalist who can sing in modern metal.


 

 

The first song doesn't sound too bad. The second one isn't my cup o' tea. The third one, I'm not that into the vocals, but the music isn't too bad.

If you don't like modern metal..don't listen to it. If you are trying convince everyone that most of it sucks...you are wasting time. Its all opinion and subjective...I think rap sucks hard but I don't go pushing my opinion about it.


Shinedown,seether...totally not metal. I think it's time to spin some carcass...

Op I totally agree. For me, real music must have a Kazoo in it, and a hippie chick banging on a tambourine. {censored} modern metal, they are all just a bunch of pussies that play for guys anyway, you never see a chick at their concerts. Always a sausage fest. Sausage festers!

But I try and listen to modern heavy metal. I can appreciate the musicianship but I have to disagree with my former professor. I just don't get it. Its musical garbage! And that's not to say every single band is bad. I'm sure some of the bands are good, but I just don't understand the low tunings that all sound the same- what guys on the forums call BROOTALZ or DJent. To me, it sounds like a bad imitation of pantera that should have died long ago. How many times can you hit the low strings dude?

and the singers. WTF?????? yes, doing good gutteral vocals isn't easy. I understand, but growling like a pissed off doberman isn't music! Killswitch engage almost has it right and adds actual singing. Holy cow, what a concept!

I like the drummers. I think the double bass sounds really cool. I'd like to see more jazz drummers incorporate blast beats into their drumlines.

And where are the horns? why is it all so generic? What gives? The music just isn't music.

and no, this thread isn't a troll. I just hate the majority of modern metal I hear. Its refreshing to hear a modern band like Steel Panther or Firewind. Guys who are actually musical.
