its cool to c BMFV, trivium and a7x at least they have nice leads inside and good melodies. not so say their superb but at least they did a job well done.. we can never compare to greats like metallica,death,testament,pantera and countless others but give them a chance. huhu

Talking about Trivium, listen to their new track called Kirisute Gomen from their upcoming album SHOGUN at
their myspace page. Pretty awesome I should say, with their old stuff mixing into the song.

i guess they revived it some of the guitar parts and music composition...but maybe not their singing - coz the singing is still quite nu-metal-ish (whatever that is).

well...i havent really listen to a lot of their songs...so maybe i'm wrong. But just imagine Mille of Kreator becoming their singer, woud you have known the difference of music between them and Kreator?

and if u read their autobiography...they started by playing ol skool thrash covers too (ain't everyone?)...heck the reason for Creeping Death covers in some of their show. So i guess they had their roots correct...and the solos are kinda awesome. To me nu-metal was kinda crap because of the lack of guitar technical skills in most of the nu-metal bands out there...but with these new band - we now have more guitar heroes!

and i read somewhere that Trivium, A7X and BFMV are The New Wave of Heavy Metal...i kinda agree

oh btw - when will they get Kreator back here again?

to me nu metal wasnt such a bad era of music.. what i mean is dat not all of em are bad.. u could never deny that early Korn was like the heaviest shit dat u guys wanted to listen at dat time. we had soulfly and early limp bizkit was not dat bad either. Coal chamber to name the least.. haha

Here are some samples of Metallica's new album Death Magnetic. Sounds like in between the Justice Album and Black album.

I'm assuming that BFMV is Bullet For My Valentine? If so, then they have no place to be in a metal thread.

The elitist in me screams agony when I see such bands mentioned in the same breath as Slayer, Metallica, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden.

Having nice melodies, nice riffs, nice drumming, nice whatever doesn't make it metal. Metal is so much more than just teenage angst.

well, said bro. well said indeed.

this is sooo true !! BFMV iz zeh emo band

all hail black sabbath!
need to renew my vows to the satan. need to headbang to 'N.I.B.' later. its been a while...

burzum ftw !!

id BFMV really that bad huh? hehe...coz to me emo bands are bands without great guitar solos but just scream aimlessly...just think, would this band be qualified for Mustaine's Gigantor tour? I guess they could...

teen angst is just a sub-element of metal...sadly, I'm old coz I have passed all those teenage angst period like 16 years ago already. I started with Iron Maiden back in my primary skool years in the 80s, then grew up when thrash, Valentine sound productions and Earache records were dominating the cassette racks in Campbell...and had pogoed in front of the altars of Metallica and The Ramones during their peak (hey, they're the godfathers of rock ok...) ...so heck, maybe i've perceived metal in a wrong manner all these years

but look at the bright side...all least MTv's now playing more good-guitar playing metal-ish bands...there's still hope for metal!

haha. well the purist and the elitist can argue all day long but good music is still good music whether its BFMV or anywhats. like all of u i will choose slayer and metallica over BFMV anytime. hands down~ hoot~ \m/

Bring Me The Horizon is good, at least for me.

it's all rock n roll babeh!
