Rate the song above you: Music that isn't entirely electronic

2/10

Even when I was into metal, I didn't care for the death metal growl I'm afraid :(

 
^Scottish? Eminem? Did you listen to the same song mate? He doesn't sound scottish nor is he, and his flow is completely different from eminem. Completely in time with the beat with how he stresses the lines, eminem famously has a significantly more rubato-y flow. For lack of a better way of putting it.

6/10

Pretty generic country music, I did like his vocal pedal steel guitar though. We're gonna give you some more jam baxter because he is so horrifically original in his flow, but yeah, spooky is his style.

If I am being honest I have no idea what he is saying or what he is talking about, the beat is repetitive, the song lacks any structure, white people should not rap imo,
We will try it again on my song too. Here is DAC who made the song famous.

 
6/10

Just country music, non-offensive pleasant to listen.

Hip-hop beats are repetative by nature due to the way they're made, ie using short samples, especially old school stuff by black peolpe so I don't know what your beef with that. As for the abstract lyrics and your inability to understand a london accent, here's something less abstract very clear what it's about, I'm not sure where leaf dogs from, but I don't think it's london, maybe you'll find his accent easier to understand.



"give me ten gurners, 2 grams and some 2c-i and we can get HIIIIGHYYYYYY" :D
 
I was feelin the bob marley samples, and the piano reminded me of this UK rapper
but too much of the same would be stale, so have some US rap (i'll bring out the aussie shit later ;) )
 
^ Not my cup of tea but I loved the message... and it didn't have obscenities in every verse...double bonus. 6/10

 
Don't hate the player :\

6/10 .. would probably like it more if i was more familiar with it..



PS sabbath sucks.
 
Oh Christ another one.... 2 1/2/10

Here try some REAL music. It'll make you feel better.

^^^ Y'all need to stop your bitching and play the game right. '0/10' is not an acceptable rating ya lazy cunts.

Anyway, I'm not sure what else needs to be said about "Into the Void" - it's one of Iommi's most classic riffs from one of Sabbath's most acclaimed albums, although it could be a bit shorter. It's good. 8/10

 
How is 0/10 an unacceptable rating?
It would merit 1/10 if I didn't hate Ozzy's voice, but I do. That's how music works, if I were to grade the song on objective merit the evaluation itself would be ingenuine.
Sabbath were a great influence on music, but that doesn't mean their music itself is good.

3/10 It's very spastic, it's like they're all playing different songs. I'm all for differing tempos and polyrhythms but that was dulled
I can't explain it, it's like the folkiness of it just detracts from what could have been achieved.
 
How is that stupid? Been here for 2 months and you're gonna call something stupid without explaining how? lol
I could name 20 bands without even trying who have better riffs, tone, musicianship, song structure, etc
Sabbath are the first dirty, slow, heavy stepping stone into the genre. Their music isn't meant to be the height of the genre, and it certainly isn't.
If you think otherwise you're either ignorant about the genre or stupid, either way you shouldn't be spurting out filth on the boards.

I mean you're not even worth explaining this too if you genuinely couldn't even hear the guitar or cymbals in that mix (i'm not defending the mix, either)
6.5/10 for the queen song

 
Not bad, a slight hint of "Sludge" in my view but I prefer eyehategod or Iron monkey in that style to be honest.
I throught it would go into some DSBM or Sunn O))) style at the start but was kinda suprised, cant say I am a fan but I am going to youtube the band & have a listen to other stuff.

Sadly I still can't get to grips with how you make the video show like you lot have so it will have to be the old skool link, sorry folks.
I've been playing this song alot today, in respect of the people I came across from Somalia seeking asylum in Norway while on holiday

How does that make any sense? The evaluation has more meaning if you can look past your personal bias and judge a song by its individual flaws or merits. 0/10 is basically saying something is devoid of content, which would be incredibly disingenuous, especially when the band in question undoubtedly has a certain amount of talent. I mean, fuck, you gave that Shaggs song a 3/10. Obviously your rating will be lower because you don't like Sabbath for whatever reason (I'm guessing the same reason thrash metal fans dump on Metallica), but when you respond with "0/10" without giving any criticism or reason why, and then copping a bitchy attitude by saying "listen to some REAL music", you're being intentionally antagonistic and ignoring the rules of the game.

Here's an example of how to do this:

Frankly, I hate Motley Crue. I think they are a generic, superficial boyband composed of tone deaf cross-dressers. This song in particular exemplifies everything I hate about them: the main riff is incredibly simple and monotonous, the lyrics are typically generic misogynist (comparing a woman to a car? never been done before), the chanted chorus is silly to the point of being stupid, and the guitar solo is lazy even by 80s Hair Metal standards. Motley Crue are the inbred, sissified castrati of the metal scene, and even with my personal disdain for the group, I'm still gonna give the song a 2/10 because it's still far from the worse thing I've ever heard.

See? You can still be obnoxious and make valid criticisms about a song.
