Yeahhhh.... I don't think you're allowed to call bands generic when you've got a Metallica avatar.
And also when his username is a Motley Crue song...
What's so bad about Motley Crue?
Nothing, they just sound similar to a lot of other Glam metal from the 80's. Again, not bad, pretty good even, but kinda generic.
Also, SOAD, even if you don't like them, don't seem generic. The only album I've heard os Toxicity, and it seemed different from anything else I'd ever heard.
I was just wondering why you called them generic.
I'll admit, it is sometimes hard to tell Motley Crue from other bands of the era.
Honestly, System of a Down isn't actually that original. Other bands have tried to do the whole "anti-establishment" thing; the way I see it, they're no more original than anyone else.
SoaD's song structure is some of the most unique and original you can find within rock/metal regardless of which decade you look at.
I have no idea why you dislike them so much. You can't seem to get past some of their lyrical themes, and write them off as generic and gimmicky.
By generic, I'm sure you're referring to them being one of hundreds of other "anti-establishment" bands, right? Cause really, I dare you to link me bands with similar song structures as System.
Take your time. I'll be waiting.
Well, erm, Coheed and Cambria for one.
Unique/original song structure doesn't mean good. They are one of the most overrated bands out there. The overall way they sound when you put everything together does not appeal to me at all. A big part of my hate for them is, in fact, how overrated they are.
Heh, that's a bad example.
Whether they're good or not isn't the arguement. That's subjective.
A unique and original song structure makes the song... oh boy, unique (opposite of generic, which is what this WHOLE fucking argument is about. HELLO?)
You also contradicted everything you've said so far in this thread about SoaD in the second line of your paragraph.
System is an original band with a unique style and sound.
Fact.
When I read "A big part of my hate for them is, in fact, how overrated they are.", I almost broke my neck with the force of my facepalm. Please try to fail less or I'm gonna have press charges for attempted murder by epic fail.
