Any suggestions of good post-metal bands like Isis, Pelican, Neurosis, Minsk
True Slipknot is more brutal than death/black metal could ever be
KoRn nor Slipknot is brutal. I used to listen to metal all the time, still somewhat of an expert. Music itself is not brutal, but some of the lyrics can be far too intense. Want something brutal? Check out Dethklok. They seem to be the only real Death metal musicians. The rest suck. I think metal musicians honestly overuse the word brutal to make themselves and their music look cool. Really, they don't know half of what real brutality can be. EDIT**I couldn't agree with you anymore! Death metal does suck, big time. Nu-metal is A LOT better than Death Metal. Death Metal is a bunch of wannabe ******* that all sound alike. They think they're all bada** with all this brutal lyrics, yet in their music, they won't even make one single word noticeable. I like KoRn and Slipknot. I wasn't hating on them at all, just letting you know. Follow the Leader will still always be one of my top albums. I like a lot of Slipknot's stuff. They're more original than any death metal band out there. 9 members and they can handle that sh*t. Actually, 8 now. Unless they replaced him? Haven't been up to date with them in awhile. KoRn has the most originality out of mostly any band ever. Their new stuff sucks, I'm sorry. Their new album just went down hill. But the rest are bada**. Especially their songs with Ice-Cube and Fred Durst.
