James Blunt- Back to Bedlam

-addressed by 51 in his topic which was locked. you bastards.

right, where do I start? this album is not what i normally listen to as I prefer metal to all other types of music. however, that does not mean I don't listen to other types. i can still say that this is a fucking superb album, every song is just fantastic and his voice is unique.

give it a try people, its really worth getting.

All of his songs sound the same.

Vocals longulated through verses.
Repetive Choruses.
Slow ending verse.

I would be very careful about criticising ole' Blunty for using conventional song structures. A lot of the more mainstream metal bands also use fairly simple structures - Simplicity isn't always bad.

They make effort to change songs quite abit.
Most bands have songs that other band's songs structures follow the exact same.

But "Your Beautiful" "Goodbye my Lover" sound exactly the same in structure.

Again, be careful with your big generalisations there. Do you consider Black Sabbath, Maiden, Slayer, or Priest to be shit because they have all sold 10M + albums?

Often it is the case that the real innovators of a genre also gain mass appeal.

How wrong you are. If you think those bands are pathetic, then don't listen to metal, listen to rap or hip hop, maybe that's your ideal music.

God shut your mouth for a second. >_<
He meant the OTHER mainstream bands.

Marilyn Manson,
Mötley CrÌe,
System of a Down,
Queens of the Stone Age,
Slipknot,
Limp Bizkit,
Slayer,
Metallica,
Nirvana,
Coal Chamber,
KoRn,

Etc...

You get the idea, he may like some of the above bands though, as I do.

And more recently:
Atreyu
Avenged Sevenfold
Bullet For My Valentine
Dillinger Escape Plan
Funeral For A Friend
Killswitch Engage
Shadows Fall
Trivium

I'm seeing an metalcore breakout here.

Actually, all 4 are established metal bands. You completely fail at understanding "context". Of course Priest & Sabbath won't sound particularly hard compared to say, Morbid Angel or Suffocation, but they came out 10-20 years before. Without Sabbath or Priest there would be no heavy metal

Oh, and Cannibal Corpse are laughably badl. Try Suffocation or Morpheus Descends for death metal which is actually innovative, rather than just apeing the same shit Obituary and Deicide were making a few years ago.

who cares if they came out first, someone was going to do it eventually, no need to call them metal. i was born of 0yrs of age, but i was born 18yrs ago so im still 0. times change, they are not metal anymore, who cares if you have a soft spot for them because you got into them a long time ago.

IF that's your opinion then why do you like ANY band? Surely by that logic, Vulgar Display and Burn My Eys are worthless, because (according to you) "someone was going to do it eventually"

[A]MoshMan wrote: i was born of 0yrs of age, but i was born 18yrs ago so im still 0.

I don't understand.

[A]MoshMan wrote:they are not metal anymore,

You're trying to change history. Just because a band isn't thrash/death/black doesn't make them any less metal. Such is the nature of heavy metal.

Lol. Funny.

Nobody finds metal scary, only those who stereotype it.

Funny lol. I wouldn't bother flaming you like a dead rat right now, it's a waste of time to someone who enjoys listening to rap and hip hop for a living.

Lol. Berzerker makes me laugh. If that's what you call your SCARY music, you are way off track!
