Ah, you can say anything about metal except that it's dead; it has become the most vibrant and varied scene now, blending post-core, heavy psychedelia, industrial, grind, progressive math-rock, and various other influences.

Oh, the album hits hard, and I mean really hard, but Terrifyer devours it with polenta and mushrooms for me. Have you heard the latest Phantom Limb? That one is impressive too. R U B A T E L O

Magnificent album, unlike Burzum. Well, I would only save 4 bands in black metal (and I mean 4, counted, you know).

A compilation just for me, in short.

Indeed, speaking of innovations, Neurosis, together with Eyehategod, gave rise to a true genre, sludge, in a period when everyone was focused on speed and extremism. They went against all trends and conceived a new way of making doom that spawned numerous epigones.

I don't agree. If there's one genre that has really experienced some strong upheavals in recent years, it's definitely Metal. And not just from Meshuggah (without whom many modern mathcore and technical metal bands wouldn't exist) or Pantera, but also from various industrial groups (Fear Factory, Strapping Young Lad), grindcore (Nasum, Pig Destroyer), and sludge. Does names like Neurosis and Isis mean anything to you?

Here, I would gladly set fire to these, just like the 60% of metal-core/emo melodic scum that's polluting planet Earth. Listen to Meshuggah, for a better future, and eat Activia, for your daily regularity.

Then frankly, if I had to deny artistic dignity to metal, I would deny it to that endless array of true bands that have flooded the genre since the '90s, I would deny it to the most brutal or the most wretched and abject black metal, to the metal bands that make satanic and perverse imagery their reason for success. Check out the bands under Relapse, an avant-garde metal label, and then tell me what metal is like today...

"Beautiful metal band, but it's not Edgard Varèse." Yes, also because Meshuggah has very little to do with Varèse, as they do with Crimson and all the bands they have been compared to in these comments (except for the comparison with Pantera, which can hold up, even though I don't see them as absolutely inferior to Pantera).
