Yes, in the old school black metal scene Nodviet is a guitar god. Granted there's not much living competition

I suppose you're right about that. Old School Black Metal musicians have about the same life expectancy as fruit flies.

are you kidding funeral doom cheers me up when I feel down

And even though I also can appreciate such music, I am not certain if funeral doom is actually supposed to cheer people up.

Nodviet represents the ability to be amazing without having to be absurdly fast and technical. the entirety of The Somberlain shows that

Criticizing people can be fun.

The Threat Is Real: Dave rambles about ISIS.
Poisonous Shadows: About chemtrails. Pretty obvious.

Jesus Christ, he doesn't talk about this stuff that much you know.
On the subject of the track list, I think 15 tracks is a bit much (it's a sure thing that even if Dave was at the top of his game on this album, at least 4-5 tracks would still be filler) but hey, what do I know?

In fact here's a list of great albums with 15 tracks:

Yeah, I got nothing.

To Pimp A Butterfly has 16 and it's great, but it's not metal.
The Discovery by Born of Osiris has 15 and if you want to be elitist I guess they're technically not metal but they're close enough.
I can't really think of any others off the top of my head, though.

I try my hardest to care about as many things as I can and criticize people as much as possible because I hate other people being happy

Actually, they just let me out after my crazy spell passed. But let's go with your version. It makes me sound awesome.

Yes. But sadly, I'm at my character limit for my sig. So I can't add anything else.

Well, turns out it worked out anyway. I found the links and connected to them. Didn't have to remove anything, and I got something new.

Your dedication towards the cause of creating a miserable world for miserable people is duly noted.

Your agreement with my vision has been duly noted as well. Darkness shall rule.

Savatage has got to be one of the most consistent bands ever. Each album is very different conceptually, but I always end up giving them almost the exact same score.

Really digging Dead Winter Dead and Gutter Ballet lately
