I'm a metalhead who started with the basics (Metallica, Slipknot, Slayer, Korn) . In that time I thought I was a hardcore metalhead (I wasn't) but it was when I got to the likes of Sodom, Kreator and Destruction that I really started to get into thrash metal. I'm one of those guys who likes both the old metal (Classic heavy, thrash, death, black) and all the new styles (Groove, Nu, Metalcore). It's shitty when there's old guys who only like the old stuff and young kids who only like the new stuff. Why not both?
Rino Zisa exactly. The older generation thinks that new metal is automaticaly bad because it's new. I don't get that. For example if there is post 2000- thrash metal it has to suck because it's new material. Time should never have an effect on musical taste.

Just because i enjoy their music doesn't mean i owe meshuggah 15% of the glory because they "started it all". by that sense, everyone owes the ancients for creating stringed instruments and the dude who coined the word "rhythm".

I really have to say that you're beating up a straw-man with Meshuggah. I have never heard a Meshuggah fan claim that Neshuggah is the reason for odd time signatures being prevalent. They are the reasons for POLYMETERS (multiple time signatures at once) being largely present in modern metal and for the presence of extremely down-tuned guitars (and 8 string guitars specifically). Meshuggah, to me at least, is one of those rare bands that get an insane amount of respect for their originality but also deserve it. I agree with just about everything else though.

Lol I like every album they've made even Divine Intervention and Diabolus In Musica and yes those albums do sound different but I personally just like them. I will say though that out of the Big 4, Slayer has an impact like no other, I personally believe without the help of Slayer's sound that Death Metal wouldn't exist, and I'm not saying that other bands didn't help. Bands like Kreator, Venom and Celtic Frost defiantly deserve credit on that but I feel like Slayer is the one who broke that barrier when it comes to the speed and aggression that help the Death Metal genre get on it's feet. Even death metal bands them selves have said that Slayer is one of the big reasons why Death Metal exists. But I will agree with you on the fact that there are some fans out there that are really ignorant when it comes to people not liking Slayer.

Pantera, I feel should be on here. I love Pantera, their music is amazing and they are one of my favourite bands, but I'm talking about the fans that only really acknowledge the existence of Cowboys From Hell and later albums, not really taking into account the older glam-style albums. You don't have to like those albums, to be sure, but to completely disregard their existence is to disregard half of the band's history.

i like slipknot, but i completly agree the fans are the probelm. Im 17 years old and id safely say most of the fans of slipknot are around the same age range as me or a bit older give or take 5-10 years lets say. I personally think i have a really varied and wide music taste because i'm a massive music enthusiast and thats my main passion, but many slipknot fans dont know much other music because of their lack of experience and therefore think its the best thing in the world etc, so the young fans big it up to much

lets face if man...nothing can last forever. i respect slayer, i love slayer but you have to give it the fact that unless they tread new ground they could only get more and more monotonous and generic with their sound. most older bands who have lasted over 30 years owe their staying power to yes maintaing the fact that the original talent stayed with the band over the years but because they owe their fans to their staying trying to find new material while staying black and white and true to their you could say original identity could really be the death of these bands. in this age there is more to these bands disposal so it may be a good idea to keep experimenting rather than rehashing sound to cater to older fans and really look at finding a bigger dynamic to a more exprienced and polished talent and prowess. being fresh doesnt mean trying to stay relevant but really making sure we still love and listen to these legendary bands

If Meshuggah would've stayed focused on the riffs and song writing instead of trying to bottom their sound out with 20 string guitars I think they'd easily be the best band in metal today. I can just imagine Nothing with DEI sound and production and I think it would sound better.

Motorhead, really? Even though they barely get any recognition. They don't make the same song over and over. Just compare their 70s, 80s, 90s and modern material. They've changed with the times. Just compare an album like bastards and Overkill. They've done different types from Thrash, blues, and even prog. Also, they are really influential. And they got even heavier during the 90s. That's like saying Metallica is overrated because when someone says they are a fan of them, they can only name Enter Sandman.

In my opinion, with nearly every band in the metal genre, you should dismiss anything past their 4th or 5th album. The inspiration of youth is typically gone at that point. This is particularly true with bands that have risen to some fame or fortune. Metallica is a perfect example. By their 4th release ( ' Justice), they've pretty much exhausted their creative reserve. The primary inspiration for metal is pain and anger, plus , a little bit of ignorance. The simple act of growing older and wiser handicaps the process that serves the young and dumb. It happens to everyone. When you start listening to metal for nostalgia, you're there.Having said that, Death Magnetic was pretty good.

Like Slipknot, it's the fans that really kill it more then the music-even though the music is boring to me as well. Messugah-Agreed. Motorhead-Agreed. I like some of there songs a lot, but holy hell are they repetitive. I'm a bit of a hypocrite considering I'm an unabashed AC/DC fan and their biggest criticism is they're repetitive, but they're more fun imo then Motorhead. Hatebreed-Agreed. Lacuna Coil-Meh. I like some of their stuff. I don't go out of my way to listen to them though. I don't think you can call a band overrated based on their fans though. It should be about the music.

+Mr Maws But Motörhead isn't repetitive. Almost every album have a different feeling to them, and the different Motörhead "eras" have a clearly different sound. For instance albums like Inferno and sacrifice are clearly heavy metal albums, while all of the earlier albums (and a lot of the later albums too) are closer to classic hard rock. Some of the albumseven have a blues sound to them. Unlike AC/DC who have recycled back in black for over 30 years now. They've also done a lot of experimental songs: songs like Don't let daddy kiss me (Such a well written and sad song) one more fucking time, whorehouse blues and a shitton more. They definitely can do more than hard rock! Also the one thing that puts them above AC/DC is the lyrics. Lemmy writes absolutely amazing songs. Sure, a lot of the songs like killed by death are clearly very simple and rock 'n' roll, but songs like the already mentioned Don't let daddy kiss me has beautiful and sad lyrics that tell a very tragic story, or songs like I am the sword which reminds me of fantasy epics like lord of the rings, or stay clean, which tells you to not always worry about what other people might think of you and live by your own rules. I could go on and on because so many Motörhead songs have amazing and deep lyrics. Unlike AC/DC, who can only write very simple "Let's play rock and party!" type songs.

Which garnered respect from the metal fans? Doesn't that go against what Metal was and has always been about? I love Pantera and appreciate Cowboys/Vulgar and everything after. But I can't give credit to a band for being pioneers to a genre when their first 4 albums were glam. Pantera definitely hold the crown for most overrated band.
