CD Reviews

Good CD for people who like all kinds of metal!
Metal B. Thyname | NJ | 04/12/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)

"How can you go wrong with 38 groups and songs of what's happening in metal and alternative of today. The only thing I don't care about these MTV CD's are that they're edited for cursing and they don't tell you. If you want the original version of a song you like, you have to buy the CD it's off of. But other than that, you have 2 1/2 hours of headbanging that will keep you busy on those slow days."
There are 2 Good songs on their Entire Compilation.
Senior IKnowRealMetal | Razzolia | 05/24/2006
(1 out of 5 stars)

"" The Grand Conjuartion " - Opeth

" Through The Fire And Flames " - DragonForce



Aside from those 2 tracks, this compilation is Absolute Filth.



Well okay, theres a live thing of the Trooper. But to be perfectly honest, I am EXTREMLY sick of Maiden and they should've called it quits after Fear of the Dark, like Bruce Intended.



May I also ask why in God's name is "From First to Last" on here?

First HBB is playing Underoath videos then adding From First to Last on their compilations. Last time I checked, these compilations were geared towards something called: METAL.



Ladies and Gentlemen, I am not so proud to announce that HBB gets worse Every Year. And the nose dive continues!



The only good thing I can say about this compilation is that they actually had the balls to put a Good Ol' Kick Ass Euro-Power Metal song on here. Most stupid kids today are too fixated on horrible Hardcore/Metalcore which requires Zero Talent. At the same time though, it's embarrasing that DragonForce must share a compilation with such horrible bands (excluding Opeth, of course)."
Compilation of "trendy" pop metal dribble
See about me | North | 06/01/2006

"There are only four worthwhile songs on this compilation. They are...



"Blood & Thunder" - Mastodon

Nautical noisecore, very good.

"The Grand Conjuration" - Opeth

Opeth is always great.

"Through The Fire And Flames" - Dragonforce

Okay, I don't like power metal and Dragon Force is obtrusively cheesy, but damn do they shred.

"Devilution" - High on Fire

A pounding stoner metal anthem.



Then, the mediocre...



"Take This life" - In Flames

Bleh, worst real song on their so-so new album.

"Nemesis" - Arch Enemy

Arch Enemy are recycling riffs and losing steam. Not a good way to enter the mainstream.

"In This River" - Black label Society

Face it, Zakk is terrible at ballads.

"The Trooper" (live) - Iron Maiden

Dickinson sounds like a strangled muppet singing opera live. And how many live versions of this song are there?



Other than the aforementioned, we just get a fleeting glimpse at the sad state of popular and alternative metal. (i.e. What the average MTV2 viewer enjoys.) Pseudo-thrash metalcore (Hatebreed, Chimaira, DevilDriver), vapid goth metal (Lacuna Coil, HIM), Countless Swedish-inspired gothencore acts, and apparently the already-awful nu-metal genre is evolving into a lukewarm form of hard rock. And eugh, there's even Christcore.



Don't buy into the hype.
