Bands everyone loves but you hate
For all their new ideas they didn't produce too many raging thrash classics though did they. I don't care about dissecting the scene, simply put there are just too many other bands with too many good songs that make you instantly headbang without having to 'get' the band for Voivod to be anywhere near 'masters' in my eyes. A defined scene is not about pushing the envelope anyway, if bands want to be progressive, fine, but bands sticking to the 'rules' are in no way worse for doing so.
Are you the tyrant, who cast them to the sea?

Seriously, you should also hear Thought Industry’s debut album if you haven’t done so.bigfootkit wrote: The thing about Voivod that i always loved is that their sound changed dramatically from one album to the next, and i admit there are a few that i don't much care for myself, but don't give up on them without trying "Dimension Hatross" or "Nothingface".
When you say you respect Voivod for bringing "new ideas into the Thrash Music", you become the master of understatement.
I'm courting controversy here, but i'll say it anyway, there are more fresh ideas in Voivod's albums up to and including "Nothingface", than in the rest of the "Thrash" scene combined.
There's too many vocal effects on that album.mega_lodon wrote:Seriously, you should also hear Thought Industry’s debut album if you haven’t done so.bigfootkit wrote: The thing about Voivod that i always loved is that their sound changed dramatically from one album to the next, and i admit there are a few that i don't much care for myself, but don't give up on them without trying "Dimension Hatross" or "Nothingface".

It's annoying.

Talking about the vocals on New Dark Age right? The other guy on Lamentations has a stronger voice, maybe not so melodic but definitely more metallic (and better as far as I am concerned)

On Solstice's demos LP, there's a third vocalist, which voice is very Ozzy-like, and that sounds awesome (especially on the Lamentations demo tracks).
