Still don't care. Pantera is blight for many other reasons. People who believe in a binary morality strike me as having oversimplified life to an extreme. I would also caution against taking anything this band did or said seriously; after all, they started as a bad glam band until they figured out how to rip off Metallica and Exhorder. Life is more nuanced than people want, however. God is dead, but spirituality is alive, and the AFD is winning in Germany for some reason other than that people are "evil."

I don't care about his political beliefs.

I do care that he ruined speed metal by making it into groove metal, that Pantera is for morons, and that his music generally is dumb as ass.

This is a live radio play making fun of him in the style of Charles Dicken's "A Christmas Carol" (and Dickens can make fun reading, if you have the time).

Most of metal is far more un-PC than the Nazis and far less tolerant of idiots. Pantera belong in the camps for being idiots that sell garbage music to idiots.

You know, like Opeth, Tool, Cradle of Filth, Korn, Stryper, Cannibal Corpse, and the like...

Reminds me that it's lunchtime and there's some leftover pecan pie.

Burzum was one of the greats.

Eh, too simplistic an answer, I think, given the longstanding flirtation.

[–] deathmetal 1 points 2 years ago

Heartily agreed. This one is my favorite, but other early material was interesting as well.

They made prog into an aggro art form!

I prefer to use a physical CD player hooked up to a component stereo. Sometimes I listen to Fraunhofer MP3 rips (better for music with heavy distortion).

New Sammath is glorious.

Those are from the transitional period. Hellhammer, Sodom, Bathory, and Slayer sort of laid the groundwork for death metal; Master and Possessed fleshed it out. By 1985, Sepultura had one version of the finished product, but really Morbid Angel, Massacra, and Deicide finalized the scope of the genre. Great period in history!

No way. The admins remove any mods who are not down with the censorship regime.

I agree. It is time our people had representation too.
