| _________________________________________ [Aug 9,2005 3:45pm - BestialOnslaught ""] Look, I don't care if anyone likes Dimmu or even think they are a terrible band, but you really need to look no further than stuff they've said publically to see that there is a big commercial element in their approach. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 9,2005 3:47pm - SacreligionNLI ""] give me links and i'll believe you and either way i'll still like their music |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 9,2005 4:05pm - DreamingInExile-nli ""] Overrated: Shadows Fall Unearth Beyond The Embrace In Flames Soilwork Underrated: Epica Shape of Despair Quo Vadis Enslaved Gamma Ray I could go on with both lists, but I'll stop while I'm at 5 each. **note** Just because I have bands on my overrated list, does not mean that I don't like them, I happen to like all the bands that I've mentioned here, I'm just being honest and voicing my opinion on who's overrated |

| ___________________________________ [Aug 9,2005 10:57pm - Dissector ""] Under rated black metal bands: Anciend Rites Von The most under rated death metal band: Pungent Stench Note - There is a huge list of bands that I feel are under rated and I don't feel like picking all of them, or five of them for that matter. As for the black metal bands I listed, those are pretty much the only ones I listen to (Darkthrone too) and I never hear anything said about them. I was going to put Impetigo under the most underrated death metal band but I realized they get all the recognizition where it's due. |

| _______________________________ [Aug 10,2005 12:10am - blue ""] overrated: mastodon 90% of black metal all of the bands that mallcore kids think are underrated (opeth, dimmu, old mans child, etc)...cus they dont listen to enough underground stuff to know that theyre overrated |

| ______________________________ [Aug 10,2005 1:04am - blue ""] as long as you stop calling them underrated. anyone who has been listening to metal for longer than 10 minutes know that dimmu borgir are not underrated. how can a band be underrated when almost millions of mall goths would slit their wrists for them. |

| _________________________________________ [Aug 10,2005 1:07am - SacreligionNLI ""] i never said they were underrated i just disagreed with how practically everyone said they were overrated |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 10,2005 1:07am - anonymous ""] HEY BLUE GLASSJAW FUKKIN SUCKS |
| ______________________________ [Aug 10,2005 1:08am - blue ""] im past that now. im now focusing on the fact that you dont have the slightest clue on what emo is. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 10,2005 1:08am - Dissector ""] Guys, obviously Dimmu Borgir, Iron Maiden, and Black Sabbath are the most underrated bands in metal history. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 10,2005 1:09am - SacreligionNLI ""] oh so you're "old-school" emo back when it wasn't cool to be into that shit... sounds familiar...kinda like bashing dimmu and opeth because a lot of people like em and proceeding to call them mallcore |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 10,2005 1:10am - anonymous ""] ARE U OUT OF YOUR FUCKIN MIND?ALL OF THOSE BANDS ARE HUGE WETHER THEY SHOULD BE OR NOT IS ANOTHER STORY |
