Grindcore

Damn, how thick are you?

It's DIFFERENT. They exist on two totally different scales of quality. That's like eating a banana and saying "This is a sucky apple."

I'm not gonna turn on Fur Elise and say "This doesn't compare to ISMFOF at all." because it's clearly not the same thing.

But bananas are sucky apples, they taste all....um... banana-ish and non-appley:D

:hiding:
 
I was referencing your earlier post about how most people would never say in real life what they say on here. I take back what I said earlier, you are very entertaining and you should keep doing your thing on here.

oh ok. I see, i thought you were making a e-challenge lol

I was like "Oh man we are gonna have to take this to Call of Duty"

its all good man. I just want a happy environment

The thing is about the proclaimed difference is I see a lot of bands playing death/grind/extreme metal adapting harmonizing skills and playing skills that share some of the same skills used in playing classical music. Albeit the application is different, but if you looked at at a Bach fugue and compared that to something off say, The Black Dahlia Murder's Miasma, I think you could find common ground.

Then again, some people are just good at keeping their minds closed.
 
uh

Yes, I too sat on the couch watching Paul and his strange toupe run through this classic piece...

Sorry, BW, but I think you're reaching now...


Interesting that this living legend comes on national TV, gives a class A performance and all you noticed was his toupe.

I was enjoying the stellar music, examining the gear, listening to his tone and how he picked out “Day In Life” without changing position using open strings. Plus his vocals were outstanding.

So, tell me more about his toupee. What else did you notice, oh yeah, what kind of shoes was he wearing?

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not your fault, I am thinking you were not on the scene in 1964 and just don’t understand the history or the caliber of legacy.

I’m just saying?
 
Dude, how did this start out as a beef with an obscure and difficult to define "metal" sub genre and then turn in to Macca and his rug.

Macca looked a little tired, and that dingbat playing the acoustic wasn't helping things. And I hate the beatles, so your invoking the name of St. Macca has no effect on me. My kryptonite is when you bash Dexies Midnight Runners. Now that's iconic, by the very definition. And John Wayne. Can you believe they are making a remake of True Grit with Jeff Bridges? I mean, I like him, and I like the Coen brothers' movies a great deal, but Jeff Bridges? Not sure. How many movies has he done with Lloyd? I can only think of that one with the bomber running around. Tommy Lee Jones played him. Terrible movie.


There, plenty of random nonsense to keep this thread going in no particular direction.

It has a direction, were discussing True Grit and Paul McCartneys toupe.
