Surprised that they are #19 on Billboard! What's going on? The public baffles me at times.

These cats wouldn't last 5 minutes against Ragnar Lothbrook.

Even less against Lagertha.

I've never considered this stuff music.

It's a display of speed, nothing more.

Just as a sidebar they're playing in Vermont today. They have a strong following!

Someone sound salty here. Why follow metal if you think speed adds no value to the music being played? It's supposed to be powerful and impressive, that's the whole thing. It's like saying metal vocal techniques are stupid because you might as well use your regular vocal chords instead of both\the false chords.

^^
in my case, I don't "follow" metal
I follow new music
or at least what is called music
any genre is fair game to make fun of

GMO crops courtesy of Monsanto does crazy things to people, this is just another example of it.

I said it's a display of speed, nothing more.

I never said anything about it not adding value to a song.

That's something an individual listener decides.

It's supposed to be powerful and impressive, that's the whole thing.

Ok, then.

It's a powerful and impressive display of speed, nothing more.
