alright. i don't listen to or like a lot of metal. i've seen voivod on much music and shit and didnt see what stood out aboot them.
i dont see how negativa has anything going for it without any memorable songs. the idea of them being avant-garde is laughable
it might be a one shot deal

If you don't listen to or like a lot of metal then I guess we won't speak the same language as I love Heavy Metal above almost all. It's certainly up there with cute kittens, barbarians and robots for me. It's understandable that you don't get Voivod, though, they're not an easy band to get. And Negativa, as well as Gorguts are not meant to be initially catchy so I don't know what you were searching for there. These things reward deeper listens.

i liked and played technical death metal in high school and i dont think its fair to assume i dont "get" negativa just because i found it unenjoyable.
i think all music serves an important perpose because there's people who wanna hear that stuff. as for me i like orchestral music.

king diamond is probably my favourite heavy metal band though. the entertainment value of a 40 year old guy singing in falsetto aboot ghosts is immeasurable.

i also like that jingle bells parody aboot batman
it might be a one shot deal

Yeah it's pretty clear for me that you and I won't understand each other if the way you enjoy King Diamond is through irony. Negativa aren't technical death metal so it's understandable that if you approach them from that point of view they will not deliver.

Talkin bout anime, I've been listening to the Bleach ost a bit.
When you watch it you often don't notice much of it, I never realised how good this soundtrack is.
I know probably 95% of you hate bleach, but that doesn't have to mean you'll find the music bad :)
