Rate The Artist: Three Days Grace

They suck? But you can do better right? AussieePet

That's not relevant, you and I are perfectly capable of judging things we've not done, or can't do... aren't we? (but yes, I could)

Have you ever seen acting in a b-movie, and thought "god, that's terrible acting", even though you probably couldn't have done any better?

I've heard some bad voice acting, and even refused to buy a game 'cause of it, but I'd be a much worse voice actor myself.

It's just like that, you've seen, heard, experienced better, so you can compare even w/o the ability to do that task.

I don't have Parkinson's disease, therefore I can play the guitar better than them. That's honestly the requirement for being able to outplay them is being able to pick up a guitar and strum in rythym.

theone86

That's beautiful, :lol:

[QUOTE="AussieePet"][QUOTE="theone86"]

Uh, no. THeir lyrics are angsty and unimaginative, they use simple chords and don't even show much technical proficiency in doing so, they use the same keys and scales over and over, they rely on distortion to cover up their flaws, and their songs all sound the same. They suck, end of story.

theone86

Yup. Not that it has any bearing on whether or not they suck.

I wonder what OT feels about AC/DC? ...codymcclain14

[QUOTE="codymcclain14"]I know what you ment about "chords" dumbass. I honestly don't see the problem? I'm not going to "argue" with you much long, as this is just a opinion. But your comments just make you look like a stuck up ass.theone86

No, "I like them" is an opinion, what I am stating is fact.

LOL, you're pathetic. I doubt you can play sh!t. You can't play better. Stop trying to sound cool by dissing Mainstream music for being "simple"?codymcclain14

Okay, here's an example of one of their complex pieces, which is like the same four or notes by the way:

And here are two examples of songs I'm learning to play:

Which songs do you think are harder to play?

Stoped reading at "fact"... That's is really stupid. Far from fact. "I don't like them, so they ARE terrible, that's not my opinion, that's a fact". Really dude, you're f*cking stupid. Enough said. I realise you're probably trolling now.

The Beatles? Not at all. Pink Floyd? Maybe 1 song of him I like. Led Zeppelin? Not sure, but I think a few of his is desent. Queen? Can't recall listening to them.

codymcclain14

Pff those bands suck because everybody has heard of them -_-

LOL. Exactly ;)

Thats funny coming from the guy that listens to mainstream fake-metal bands :lol: Everybody listens to As I Lay Dying and Killswitch Engage, which are metalcore bands are and automatically crappier because of that...

If you want real metal, listen to whatever obviously true metal bands I listen to because I clearly know better

[QUOTE="AussieePet"]10/10 one of my fav bands :DCHOASXIII

What a suprise....

I wonder what OT feels about AC/DC? ...codymcclain14

They're pretty bad as well, but at least they can play a decent solo.

Try cIassic rock. Everubody loves Queen, The Beatles, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. :lol:

Where did you see me say I don't like them? Not that I do, but not once did I say I didn't like them. I'm basing everything I'm saying on fact. They are simplistic, they are repetitive, they are unimaginative, none of this has anything to do with wheter or not I like them.

Same objections. They literally use one key, and it's like the most common key in all of rock. Half of their songs sound the same, but at least it's only half because unlike 3DG they know how to mix up the tempo and chords a little bit and add some musical flairs in, not to mention perform a decent solo. Oh, and they're more technically proficient.

They're alright but I'm not all that into them. Some of their songs are pretty good (Break, One X) but as a whole they are a bit generic in my opinion.

I'd give'em a 6.5/10.

Thankyou for enlightening me. I never knew that bands need to be technically proficient to be likeable. I shall now stop listening to most of my bands and listen only to cIassic rock and speed/power metal bands... :roll:

Exactly... I should make a new thread about Children Of Bodoom. :lol: .. [ pretty much power metal ] ... Then tell me if they're simple. -.-

listened to some songs on Youtube.

didn't seem too bad. probably wouldn't listen to them when choosing a song, but could leave the radio on them if it came on.

I haven't listend to them much, but I've like what I heard. I know they change their sound between albums, and don't stick to one "metal" label. But hey, they're technical? right? :P

[QUOTE="codymcclain14"] Oh I know, considering that's the only time I heard them. I can't really judge them on that. I might look at them later.Engrish_Major

Not a huge fan. I like their older stuff more. Guy's voice just doesn't do it for me. Kinda cheesy in the same vain as Avenged Sevenfold.
