• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    I made an edit, I hope that explains it better for you. It's a wall of text now though :* In short, I think Sirenia are close to what you could call pop metal (doubt that is a genre). It's a bit hard to get a general term for all these kinds of bands, so people slot them under metal and people...

    Depends if they do a full on makeover and play convincing metal. Considering it's Sirenia, doubt they can pull over a cloak. I mean, Sirenia suddenly riding motorcycles and drinking beer and shit, you think they can do that? I don't think so? I just think it'd be the same shitty old car with a...

    what the fuck metal doesn't need solos have you ever heard Neurosis and friends Actually, metal goes a LOT further than just these overall characteristics. Metal goes back to the fucking tritone, the use of the power chord, and is actually rooted in blues. If you wanna argue the theory, yeah...

    both are perfectly acceptable grammatically. how are they metal? because they have distorted guitars and wear fishnet stockings? to me it's just another version of Evanescence, except now the guitars sound louder! I like chick vocals, just, this is a thread about metal and I'd rather people...

    I saw the audio autopsy at Global Domination for Sirenia and it got a 2.25/10 average and the owner of the site likes chick metal bands so....

    I only have a compilation album I got sent by their label, you're gonna have to dig into their back catalog for that.

    Zeta there is no clear-cut awesome metal masterpiece. I guess it's like a Slayer record for some people, and it's a fucking Opeth record for other people. Blackwater Park by Opeth is a good place to start. Also, in addition to what Retsu mentioned, Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Dog Fashion Disco...

    It's ridiculous stereotyping. Like what I did with Norwegian black metal.

    They have Opeth, Pain of Salvation and Katatonia which are three of my favourite bands so yeah... Also a lot of other good metal comes from Sweden... that country is a breeding ground for good metal.

    That's the only one I've heard tbh (the new one) and it is pretty damn wicked. Dunno how it compares to the others.
