how dare you use 'korn' and 'good' in the same sentence and to that OC fan, i cant think of any greater juxtaposition of music tastes by mentioning opeth and static-x together.

Korn's "Blind" was a reasonably *good* song?
That's as far as I'm going to go with that one.

On the other hand I love Opeth and I would rather eat my scissors than listen to Static-X but I don't see how it's a major juxtaposition of music tastes? They're both... reasonably heavy.

And I don't see what's wrong with a "juxtaposition" of music anyhow. I don't think there's any reason that one person should be restricted to one type of music. I think I'd get a bit sick of music as a whole if every band I listened to was similar to Opeth. Saying you can't like Nu Metal and... er... The-genre-that-Opeth-belongs-to (I'm not even going to bother trying) is kinda like saying you can't like both horror movies and comedy movies... isn't it?

Then again I kinda see your point in the sense that most people that appreciate Opeth's music are too "musically mature" to listen to Static-X. Or at least that's what I think.

Blah.

its the fact that he listens to one of the best technical metal bands out, and some ultra commercialised mallcore garbage, which is about as pleasing to the ears as sticking needles in them.

Evergrey, Nightwish, Blind Guardian, Symphony X, Opeth, Dream Theater, Sonata Arctica, Into Eternity, Stratovarius.

At the moment, my favourite artist + album is Nightwish - once. This album just keeps growing on me (plus seeing them on wednesday night has helped the growing process a bit).

Stop being an idiot, yeah. Most people diss Korn because it's nu-metal, and apparently, it's cool to diss nu-metal. But, it's not.

Unless you have listened to their songs thoroughly, don't judge too harshly on it.

*sigh* yah, I'm sick of people dissing nu-metal. Or people who listen to nu-metal for that matter.

anywayyyyy, let's not make it worse...

I am in love with Tarja at the moment. Nightwish can own me any day.

The other day I bought Dark Tranquility's Character. Anyone has it? It's good.

Get some anger management, that would help.
