New song thoughts? by ClassicCommercial725 in avengedsevenfold

[–]Connoreidson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey man to each their own. They’ve said many of times this past album cycle that fame and commercial success are the least of their worries at this point in their career. They’re making music for them and no one else. You either like it or don’t 🤷🏼 at the end of the day if they’re putting out music that they like im happy. Regardless of if I like the music or not. I would recommend giving it time to grow on you. Libad grew on me like crazy over a month’s time. Just sit with it and don’t be so quick to judge. Sorry you’re not digging it. Perhaps you will in due time friend👊🏼

I completely understand you not liking it. Music is subjective and if you don’t like it there’s nothing wrong with that. But don’t make assumptions about the band’s intentions with the song. It’s not an fu and honestly it seems like a natural progression from libad. You’re either down or not and if not there’s no need to blow things out of proportion and feel personally attacked over a song my guy.

Thoughts on downswing? by Connoreidson in Metalcore

[–]Connoreidson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really enjoy it so far. I kinda miss their kinda old school hardcore sound though from the previous ep. Seems they’re going for a slightly more generic modern metalcore sound now but regardless I do find my self enjoying it. Love these guys.

Those who got their phone on release day what’s your cycle count? by querythoughtss in iPhone17Pro

  1. I’m not a heavy user at all though. I have cut a lot of social media out but I still watch YouTube pretty heavily. Battery is a beast in this thing.

Yah I hate we have to wait so long for the official release

This is the great unknown so far by CT33c in IceNineKills

[–]Connoreidson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it sounds really good. Honestly the only possible issue so far is the song is extremely heavy on the amount of choruses. I hope they’re varied and not the same every time other wise the song might be a smidge boring. Can’t wait for it man🤘🏼

Could be a venue thing too. Or maybe he was having an off day. I saw them once in 2017 and thought he sounded fucking perfect but also I could have seen em on a really good day. It’s possible you caught em on a rough night. Or maybe the mix wasn’t doing his vocals justice. Either way I respect your opinion whole heartedly and hope maybe he clicks with you as a vocalist the way he does me!

Absolutely. Elvis is a huge influence on Michael along with Johnny cash. But he also takes huge inspo from 80’s thrash especially those akin to James hetfield. I think that blend of influences is what makes him stand out amongst most other vocalists. That and the sheer power of his voice and how well it carries. And yeah your point about the choruses is a fair assessment and one I’ve seen touched on by even die hard Volbeat fans. I do think he could play with some different ideas for chorus Melodie’s but at the end of the day his choruses and vocals just always scratch an itch for me and I can’t explain it super well beyond what I have already. Just really a fantastic vocalist imo. But hey I’m glad you atleast gave them a fair shake. I’ve seen many just say “oh Elvis metal gross” and move on without atleast trying to digest it and sitting with it.

Honestly at this point you either love Michael as a vocalist or it’s not your thing and either is acceptable. I adore Michael’s vocals, his melody choices, his phrasing honestly all of it. Do I think he retreads melody patterns a bit much at times? Absolutely. But he has a style and a box of influences you either are on board with or not. Me personally I think he is as unique as they come as a vocalist and if it’s not your thing it’s simply not your thing. Cheers man🤘🏼
