Regarding the above mentioned music, it's just new age metal, which is so plain and anti-badass. Riff rock is the stuff that never sticks around.

Tis why Zeppelin, Top, and AC/DC faded out so fast.:rolleyes:

That stuff isn't riff rock, you just like it because of the riffs. There is deeper meanings to those songs.

I agree with that. Let's see. The meaning of songs by Zep, Top, and AC/DC.
Sex, drugs, booze, cars, and women. Not that deep.

BTW, Rush is deep. Tool is deep.

Led Zep. - Immigrant song

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing.
Yep, definitely about drugs, chicks, AND cars.

Tool isn't deep, they just use music to take jabs at things they don't like/agree with.

I'll give you deep. You'll need a history lesson to understand the meaning behind this song.

No one makes it out alive, but I know where the killer hides tonight
No one makes it out alive, but I know where the killer hides

I saw this night and the next, erupt in flames but years ago
Women and children scurry like roaches stomped out by fire
I warned these insects not to move but no one ever listens…

”Don't believe this girl, she preaches mayhem!”
“She's the devils ***** and a liar!”
“I want to see the look in her eyes,
when body parts ways with life!”

No one listens to the damned

No one listens to the damned
At six miles up it will explode, I can see it all
No one listens to the damned
At sea level you will be drowned, I have seen it all
No one listens to the damned
Beneath the surface the monster will have you
No one listens to the damned
But god damned no one will believe me

No one listens to the damned
No one listens to the damned
No one listens to the damned
No one listens to the damned…
The music Video is above under "Fear Before The March Of Flames".

Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, here is what Sheep thinks is deep.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmkLQRp8htY

I just can't take it. I don't see the point. Am I supposed to be scared? I just want to jam. That souns like a bunch of crap.

I understand we have an extremely different taste in music. I just don't understand how anyone can like some of the bands you get into.

There is one that is similar, that I do like. Combine that singer with my kind of jams.

Reveille

Yep. That's deep. Straight out of hell.:mad:
Well you gave it 1 complete sentence, what more could I ask for?

The real meaning is a modern take on Cassandra and her gift of prophecy. Apollo gave her the gift, but she did not return his affections and he cursed her. Hence the "Don't believe this girl she preaches mayhem".

The latter part of the song is more of a modern interpretation of the legend.

"At 6 miles up it will explode" = Space shuttle.
"At sea level you will be drowned" = New Orleans
"Beneath the surface the monster will have you" = Earthquake/Volcano

Cassandra played a big role in the Battle of Troy. She told everyone not to except the gift (Trojan horse). No one listened to the damned.

Yep, they have it.

this song is about people thinking that drugs and alcohol are the only way to have fun, and that eventually it ****s lives up.
Obviously you'll need to read the lyrics, but it's all there.

Stop editing your posts and adding crap. Just make a new one.

That Reveille sounds like a crappy Rage Against The Machine.

Yep. I agree. Sounds like your style of singer with my kind of jams.;) They can't all be zingers.

That guy isn't singing, or screaming, or anything. He's talking, and then using protools to make it sound like that.

Well, when I checked-out Fear Before The March Of Flames, that shrill voice instantly reminded me of Reveille. I actually had to go find the cd to remember the bands name. It was a little dusty.:D

My dad and I don't have the same musical taste, so I don't believe we are supposed to either. I do enjoy checking-out bands I have never heard of though. You may find one that I can relate to one day.
