Why is it that some fans of just about anything love using superlatives when talking about whatever it is they like? you know like:

1. This is the best movie ever.

2. This is the greatest book ever.

3. This is the greatest singer ever.

4. This is the best football club in the world.

Axl Rose was great during his heyday. Was he the GREATEST in the entire universe and known galaxias? *sigh* That's the kind of fanboy comment that results in endless bickering and arguing.

My 2 cents.

Cyanide

And I do mean ONE I know we all have tens of albums we consider to be our favorite albums of all time, but pick one, damn it, that album you can listen to over and over again from start to finish and you never get tired of. It doesn´t have to be metal or rock. I don´t care.

Mine: Fear of the Dark (1992) Iron Maiden

EDIT:

This belongs in My World, I know. Oops… my bad.

Is it me or a large number of GnR fans seem to detest So Fine? Why though? I won't say it's a great song, because it's not, but it's certainly not that bad and I just don't see why it elicits such a negative response, at least here.

I caught myself humming Catcher in the Rye the other day while I was microwaving lunch. If I hum songs, it usually means I like 'em a lot.

I no longer care. I come here out of boredom and mostly for the lulz. When it comes to bands, I'm now 101% into classic Iron Maiden (1980-1985) and early 90's metal.

OUT OF BOREDOM

Edit:

AND FOR THE LULZ

Zac Efron in talks to join Episode VII cast…

Carrie confirmed that she, Mark, and Harrison are returning for VII:

Never got the hate for So Fine or Breakdown. They're great songs in my book… but then again, English is not my first language and maybe things just sound different to me…

Han shot first

Stupid rumor since Mace couldn't have been Lando's son. Huh? Landon was what… 34 in Episode V? And considering the fact that Episode I takes place roughly 25 years before Episode V… and Mace was already a grownup in Episode I… well… you do that math.

Did Maiden sell 26 mil of their debut album though?

I don't know, but they were/are still huge, even after all these years.

Because nobody is ever at the same heights 20 years later.

Iron Maiden?

Blood? I always thought it was ketchup.

12 years a slave has Oscar bait written all over it.

Last night, I was having trouble sleeping. Got up, watched 20 minutes of Return of The Sith and fell asleep without even realizing it. And I'm not even kidding. It's not the first time I do this either. Dexter and The Phantom Menace are also great against insomnia.

I liked him better too when he couldn't sing. Compare live versions of Creeping Death from the early 90s/late 80s to the same song played in the mid 2000s… Same thing happens with Master of Puppets. It's like, he's singing a song he no longer cares about. Like, he knows the lyrics, but it's as if he were reading out loud from a book he once liked but no longer finds interesting.

DM is an ok album in my book. Nothing to write home about. But The End of the Line annoys the fuck out of me. Every single album Metallica has released since their eponymous effort back in 91, has had (the way I see it) 4 or 5 sorta ok songs and the rest is just meh at best.

I don't hate Load or Reload as much as I did when they were first released, but I certainly don't listen to them anymore. Bleeding me is a great song, btw; one of their best imho. Different, but great. You just gotta be in the right mood for it, I guess, and for most of the post-91 stuff.

And while DM is sort of the album where Metallica tried to go back to their thrash/heavier days, it sounds, the way I see it or to my ears, I don't know… like, the music is there, but the passion is gone. Does that make sense? Probably not.

A few years off?

awesome! thanks for sharing.

DM sounds like crap too.
