I'm not a 15 year old goth wannabe, so I don't like any of those. hope this helps.

[Enlightened Fool]

Song 1 was ok, might have liked it if I was 15. Not for me. Also hate RPG'd, FF X didn't help.

Song 2's video was cool, but that's only because I love old war/military footage. This song sounded DEF better than Song 1. Still sucked IMO.

Song 3 sucked it hard, esp w/ the 300 crapola. Crap on a crap cracker.

Song 4 was reaaaally not for me. I'd rather watch a fan made vid that's not (just for the point of putting a song on youtube) w/1 pic the whole time so people can listen (to their whole album for free).

Song 5 man the singer should stick to growling, sounded sooo much better. Unless it was a backup/lead guitar or bass singing. I take back what I said about fan based videos. This one sucked.


Alright. I know(or hope) that you were just talking about the song themselves and not the vids, because they all lose to me.
As for the videos, Song #2 wins. Only because of the reason I stated.

I like some "screaming" music, but not the emo-goth-cut-yourself-type or the I-am-a-vampire-from-medieval-times crap either.

I guess, for at least 75% of the music I listen to, I like it to have a point other than talking about pain, crying about breaking up with gf's, about how death is so close and I can't wait for it to come to me type music.
A point like the gov. or how the world really works.

Of course, you probably find some meaning in it, I'm just saying I CAN'T.
Sorry.

IDK what you're tryting to get votes on, the music or the vids, or both?
And what do you mean by: "Which song did you long the best?"
Because I don't long any of them....

[ditship]

Ignore the video

I found the song on OCRemix, it reminded me of your crazy psycho music.

But I did like the song actually, not so much the screaming.

Have you ever listened to some German hardcore industrial goth music? Sounds EXACTLY the same minus the guitar/drum speed. Sometimes even the screaming is there... The organ-type-works are there, the "accent", trying to be all evil yet not, etc...
Gothic Metal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gothic_metal)
"Gothic metal or goth metal is a subgenre of heavy metal music. It combines the aggression of heavy metal with the dark melancholy of gothic rock. The genre originated during the early 1990s in Europe as an outgrowth of death/doom, a fusion of death metal and doom metal. The music of gothic metal is diverse with bands known to adopt the gothic approach to different styles of heavy metal music. Lyrics are generally melodramatic and mournful with inspiration from gothic fiction as well as personal experiences."

Too similar for me not to say something like I did, in honesty I may have described it wrong for what I was trying to say, and it seems to have also come off the wrong way.
I was just simply stating MY opinion, wasn't trying to make fun. Just used the comparisons based from similar music I have listened to, which I also don't like.
Remember it is my opinion, and just like assholes, everyone's got one..

Lulz, wtf is that, Kokopelli (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kokopelli)with no hair taking a break from flute playing to laugh? Or just a stick figure with their nose up, as in a snobbish way being used to represent what my opinion was to you? I do mean me being snobbish in me reply, not you, and that I may have been...

[ShangoXG]

lol, i was replying to ASTROBLACK if you looked, and although it is similar, it is not the same, infact, the songs that he posted werent all of the same genre or subgenre, they were varied, but anyways, it doesnt so much matter about genres and subgenres, if you like it, you like it, w/e lol.

[Iron Lung]

I despise you for making me choose between Opeth songs. I chose Reverie but it was really a tough choice, Opeth forever:sign0021:

[XrazorX]

im actually not entirely a fan of this type of music, if its got growling and screaming in it, it has to have amazing guitar...which is why i like COB

melodic metal ftw

[A Spiral Ham]

Goth= Drop D and lower tuning and a dude with a lung disorder for a vocalist.

Industrial= Same as above but sounds musically better.

Metal= impressive riffs with equally impressive solos that are not to over the top.

Speed metal is playing ungodly fast solos a la Dragonforce style except generally sounds better or worse depending on band.
Wikipedia has like the best info on this subject imo
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_metal_music

Oh and these guys are leet sauce. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0E6nsE6_e4
The lead singer is like 15 and reminds me of a young ass Dave Mustaine and there sound is like Zakk Wylde and arpeggios.
:anim_27: Oh and Pros your musical taste doesn't suck its just different which is good. :)

[Enlightened Viet]

I'm more of a classical and techno/trance/dance person.

[Prosthetics]

FYI EF I was talking about the music only. I dont give a crap about the vids, I simply took any vid that had a good quality of the song.

Also astro and EF, goth and gothic are 2 very different things, but pop culture mixes the to so much. Gothic is referred to as the style of music where orchestras play a roll in the music, like medieval times, and Goth is just a term morphed from Gothic suggesting someone who likes to cut themselves and wears all black, etc.

[XrazorX]

black tide hmm, i like it...singer is young as hell but hes pretty damn good...

[A Spiral Ham]

This thread is all the more reason we should start some sort of online band.
