reason i ask is because when i'm at a record store or looking online for some music... i feel that if a name doesn't impress me... i won't give that artist a chance...
for example... shitmat...
i haven't heard any of shitmat's material because i don't like the name...
does that make any sense to you?

There's a great movie called "the princess bride" but the title and cover of the box looks gay.

Sometimes but not really. Seems like artists with names that repel me, like Anal Cunt and Shitmat, bore me anyway. The opposite is very true though, I'll look into artists just because they have a rad name, and it will actually enhance the experience. Sort of queer. Tuxedomoon, I saw that name without knowing who they were and I knew they were going to be divine and they were. If they were called Bertha Bang, it would really annoy me.

I know what you mean. I used to despise the band "eyehategod" because I thought it was a cheap way to come across hardcore. It turns out I actually like the music.
Any death metal band that has an album cover depecting something "gross" or "controversial" i will never give the time of day. Too gimmicky.

Well I suppose if you're browsing a file list on slsk deciding which artist to download that you havent heard yet, the name would influence your decision right?

I've listened to my share. You have to admit that compairing the two is kind of rediculous.
On one hand you have a genre which is based on things like: Death, Torture, Mutilation, Rape, Satanism etc etc etc and is very often not original (as there are very few original concepts)
And on the other hand you have people who focus on the technical aspect of music and appreciate sound. The only gimmicky factors of IDM would be shit named tracks (untitled or various letters or numbers) and supposed piss takes
Not very compairable. If you like cannibal corpse i would advise you to check out jungle rot.

Yeah, stuff with really generic names that make you think its a generic artist of that genre, Shitmat for example sounds like another forgettable 'shocking' breakcore guy, Ghostface Killa sounds like a rubbish gangsta rapper etc... Four Tet sounds like someone really really boring for some reason

death metal not technical enough for you? so then it should be safe for me to assume here that you do not play guitar? considering death metal, excuse me, good death metal is insanely intricate. and justice for all was written entirely on piano. and the structuring on that same album carefully crafted i'd say. could be wrong, that's just my opinion tho...
i will check out jungle rot, if i can fit in my busy schedule, you know... 15 hrs on here today, i am wiped out.
kthxbye, <3\/01

I've played guitar for quite some time. The right things can be technical (lamb of god's DVD worth checking out)
and i have also listened to the death metal category to some extent.
The thing here is that as "metal fans" we find ourselves disagreeing. Also no agreement can be reached as we are opinionated.
Let us agree to disagree.
P.S - The "and justice for all" comment didnt help as its not death metal but i do get your point

alot of good hxc punk sxe and such. i saw some super rare videos aswell.
I am really liking crowbar, sleep, lamb of god at the moment.
Lamb is the shining example right now. It happens once every ten years.
70s= sabbath 80s = slayer 90s= pantera 00s= lamb

also if reflex still posted here you would get along hardcore i feel. Like a perfect married couple.
He liked that stuff too. nausum is good for the record.
and "hammer smashed face" is the cannibal song that keeps me listening. Sometimes when you are boozing it, it keeps you going. I saw their DVD (forgot which one) but alot of it (if not all) was shot at the rave right here in milwaukee

some great bands that have come about semi recently; mastadon, at the gates and almost every band on facedown records, imo. although earache has always had a bad ass roster line up as well!! fuck, we could go on for eternity if we mentioned all the crazy ass music we listen to hahahaha! children of bodom, dimmu borgir, shai hulud, bane, blah blah blah etc etc etc
i talked to reflex for a minute a long time ago when i first registered at afx.nu, then just kinda ran out of steam for some reason. i think i was just consumed with life at that point, anyways...
musically i'm pretty much all over the map, i guess i kinda just spread myself thin sometimes, such as with hXc metal. so i can't get into it as much as i'd like. same could be said for idm w/me as well.
