Korn guitarist finds God, leaves band; Blink 182 splits

Points to make.
1. its not really about shredding.
Cos james hetfield can't shred, but he palmmutes too! like a punk and chugs his metal to monstrous rhythm battery not found anywhere else.

2. I'm not a metallica fan! Sompa! but i appreciate good music.

3. yes! I'm a guns and fucking roses fan, but when did i ever psycho you to listen to them, I only said 10 years ago their concerts also more massive then the ones blink have now. and Metallica started out with a mega Underground fanbase to begin with. Its the real music that brought them where they are now.

4. The reason i posted is because someone very myopic started saying that its so sad no one listens to mettalica or gnrs anymore. its so unfair blink's concert is so great now that metallica or gnr can't hold a candle to them anymore. Which i totally cannot believe that someone will just post it like that without thinking.

5. yes you are 16 and you dont know the world, so go check out the dictionary and check out this word. MYOPIC.

6. and plz dont take it like i'm forcing the 2 bands down your throat, cos theres no point.

But the funny thing is. you know it yourself!
but you'll just go, "I like it here in this small well, and dive right into it."

but i hope u get my concept example when u compare Metallica to Blink 182 in terms of gaining popularity wif the masses....Blink 182 wins and i'm sure u will definitely feel kinda sucky rite? i think Metallica should win over blink 182 because they have loads of other complicated techniques up their sleeves as compared to blink 182...and yes...THE WORLD IS UNFAIR

ok..look at it this way. metallica is and always will have a larger and more extensive fan base compared to blink... one thing being they have been around much much longer.. and two being they really kick ass.

personally i wouldnt pay for a blink concert. but i would shell out big bucks for a premium spot at a metallica gig. Blink182 is a product. A very well marketed one i must say. metallica is METALLICA cannot compare man.

den u will start to wonder , how on earth can a punk rock band attract so much people and yet they only technique they know is power chords and palm muting when Metallica's james and kirk are shredding on the guitar and no one gives a damn....they start to think it's unfair thou rite?

wad i mean by "no one gives a damn" is the younger generation dun appreciate their music.it is the older generation who have tasted the days of glory of metallica and guns n roses and that i understand.i know a lot of young people listen to old school rock music either because they have frens and relatives who got them influenced or they were self influenced but old school rock prevailed in the 1980s and that makes 30+ year old adults as their fans.

wad i'm sayin is that the trend of today's music have changed.people would rather go for catchy lyrics than "catchy techniques".
the reason why i would say punk rock bands are gaining popularity now is that they write songs about daily problems happening in life for example "my girlfren left me , i hate u , i hate u." or "my parents are always abusing me , wad should i do?" u know dat kinda stuffs which young people of today experience in their lifetime.i guess , that's wad makes blink and other punk rock bands so popular wif the young generation

okay i gotta admit the palm muting part was a bit way too extreme but nonetheless i wanted to highlight my point.u can say that it was a generalisation.come to think of it...james does palm mute but i would again like to say that the rock bands of yesterday gained popularity thru sheer sweat and determination while the rock bands of today gained popularity more of their mass appealing lyrics....

so i hope that kinda explains part of ur point...anything else u would like to clearify please let me know.....
we all have our faults and mistakes but i seriously hope u can at least tone down and try to reason things out...no point getting enraged over something i said which may directly or indirectly offend u...
 
i feel sad seeing ppl worship blink 182 so madly...

and since when james shred. He is great not only becomes he can tap out the riff while waving to his fans and singing at the same time(lol!) but bcos he is one great man. He always say thank you to the fans and say heappreciates them for coming to watch him. and He wrote the song sad but true bcos he's trying to tell us that altho we see him as someone beyond us, he's just like anyone of us. he is truly one deep guy and i respect him alot.

blink is like so......bubblegum compared to metallica...just see the lyrics can tell already...

i just hate ppl insulting james...=/
 
James is a great rhythm player, but it's not shocking that people hate Metallica. Not only have they sold out numerous times, Lars even still so disrespectful to the rest of the metal community. I like Metallica, but their reign is over. I mean St Anger, just look at it. :(

some people just like catchy music and not so rock music, so they go for blink and pop punk bands.

some people like very musical stuffs and they go for metallica, gnr whereby every note they played are been worked out slowly and nicely.

and all those whos into so called 'real music' .. please get it clear how many listener and consumer out there who buy cds are musician? u dont expect everyone to know HEY! THIS METALLICA THATS A TECHNIQUE CALL PALM MUTE! HEY! JAMES IS VERY GOOD AT RYHME! HEY! HE CAN SHRED AND ITS AWESOME!

can tell u all they dont even noe what is good stuffs and bad stuffs.. to them, nice, and they like it , then its nice. they dono which technique is awesome or wad.. ok example sweeping and shreddin is something great to we guitarist.. like so power likdat.. but to those not into music.. its purely 'NOISE'

no offence to those metallica or gnr fans though.. i listen to them and i listen every genre of music :lol: except oldies lah.. :lol:

ZZZZ

hey seekz. u said hetfield plays chug like punk. but lemme let u noe tt metal style came out with tt style long b4 punk started weeing in its pants. and yes metallica has a huge fan base. much larger than blink. by miles. punk to me is a copied style of chugging but with hell less chord progressions.
