hilarious |

10.05.16 | "Why isn't this band more popular"
A trend I've noticed here is that the better a band is, the less popular they are....in some cases. |
ScuroFantasma
10.05.16 | That is the opposite of true |
StrikeOfTheBeast
10.05.16 | So anti-true?
Not entirely thus being "some cases." Check Metal Church and Realm for validation of one genre alone. |
Snake.
10.05.16 | "A trend I've noticed here is that the better a band is, the less popular they are....in some cases."
yeah that is almost never true actually |
StrikeOfTheBeast
10.05.16 | Maybe I was exaggerating that statement a bit, but I do notice a lot of bands that are better than mainstream acts who don't receive anywhere near as much attention. |
Snake.
10.05.16 | that's really based on the style of the genre tbh |
StrikeOfTheBeast
10.05.16 | true |
zaruyache
10.05.16 | Very rarely do critically acclaimed bands actually become "popular". This is pretty well-known information. |
Mystletainn
10.05.16 | "A trend I've noticed here is that the better a band is, the less popular they are....in some cases"
That isn't the case here because this band is abysmal |
Dedes
10.06.16 | I mean hey that's your thoughts on it I actually loved them. I know some people just get fucking rustled over it being celtic metal in itself which I can understand. The celtic influences aren't super heavy tbh though not like Bran Burr or something. |

10.06.16 | "A trend I've noticed here is that the better a band is, the less popular they are....in some cases"
One of the more pointless statements i've read, not even inclusive of the last part, 'better' is a subjective term and most the popular music here (unlike the radio) deserves the attention and the acclaim.
I've listened to the album and while it's not bad it's not great either, there are many other bands more deserving of popularity imo |
Pheromone
10.06.16 | click
bait??? |
Mystletainn
10.06.16 | "And most the popular music here (unlike the radio) deserves the attention and the acclaim. "
Not necessarily, brand new is popular on here yet they suck |
ScuroFantasma
10.06.16 | "Maybe I was exaggerating that statement a bit, but I do notice a lot of bands that are better than mainstream acts who don't receive anywhere near as much attention."
Of course, there's more to being popular than just making good music, and if you're not making pop or easily digestible rock then your range of mainstream appeal gets much narrower.
"I know some people just get fucking rustled over it being celtic metal in itself which I can understand. The celtic influences aren't super heavy tbh though not like Bran Burr or something."
Band is pretty good imo, I dig the album at least. I was really expecting to like it more though, huge fan of Eluveitie for example, but they ended up sounding like a lot of other bands doing the 'epic' metal style and not really standing out. Solid stuff but not very original or impressive. |
Dedes
10.06.16 | Be careful Mystletainn you will get stricken down by the sputnik bolt of death for shit talking Brand New xD but yeah I personally had never really found anything like Cnoc an Tursa, or at the very least the vocal style. It's almost thrashy while still retaining the power or the crunch (?) of a death metal vocalist. Maybe not a 5 but like a 4.5 or so. I got slightly fanboyish |
Chortles
10.06.16 | genius discussion in this thread |
Dedes
10.06.16 | I really only meant the thread as a joke people got kind of serious. |

Absolutely brilliant. |

Nope, can't defend that. |
Spacesh1p
10.06.16 | Nor can you argue against it. The man has created a rhetorical impasse of extraordinary proportions. |

10.06.16 | people ITT acting like there aint GOLD in the underground |
adr
10.06.16 | who's that alt inspector Johnny |
MarsKid
10.06.16 | Gold is def found underground. Typically in caves. |
Jots
10.06.16 | idk if it's an alt tbh |
Dedes
02.09.18 | Why? |
Beautiful
