Exactly what the title says. Bring out the genuine hot takes - ragebait is too easy.

I think we've come full circle where this isn't a hot take anymore, but for at least a decade it was. This is genuinely a good album along Silver Side Up.

The Mars Volta is probably the most overrated band I can think of

You're right about 9, so I'll forgive your steaming hot dump of a take on 7.

I have personally enjoyed most of what Seether has released.

Metalcore peaked in 2009 and it's been struggling to get back to that ever since.

Not amongst us, but I can assure you it's pretty hot if you're in your early 20s.

This is a wonderful youtube video about Nickleback and how they became so hated. youtu.be/GFC4OFWIPtw?si=A4uQS9OhsqR9TXhT EDIT: I'm not working harder than this to share the link.

Blood Mountain is the best Mastodon followed by Remission. Early ICP and Twiztid is actually not terrible and often has really cool production. Esoteric Warfare is the best Mayhem album and pretty much perfect.

Remission was my favorite Mastodon album from the beginning. The new one might surpass it, though.

I still need to check the new one. I’ve been putting it off. The Hunter was the last one that I actually return to much

The new one has a Pink Floyd vibe to it, if that interests you at all

Verified that it in fact rules via work jam. The tripped out last half of The Three Fates is amazing, The Vanishing and In the Ruins stood out too. Definitely got the Floyd vibes

ICP aren't awful agreed and Esoteric Warfare does rip! I don't think it beats DMDS for me but it's fighting for second with Chimera.

Asking Alexandria is one of the most overrated Metalcore bands of all time.
