Exactly!!! It was amazing how low you would stoop to find something new and heavy that wasn't shitey Black Metal. Credit to my bud's Scoob and Mark, they were never suckeed into the nu-metal bollocks.

Papa Roach

I used to listen to the first Slipknot album, I had 2 LB cds , SOADs first album or 2, didn't really get into that much of it though, but it got me interested in the whole metal thing so I suppose it should be thanked!!!

I would but I can't. If James reads this thread, please oblige.

In relation to Pantera, implying that KISS are glam is fucking laughable!

'Ride My Rocket'?

Erm, no thanks Glam Panther.

I was really into Slipknot - probably the first metal band I liked. I wouldn't consider them Nu Metal though, I don't think they sound much like any bands that are classed as nu metal.

they might have started of as a glam band but then they saw the light re invented themselves and became a decent band. Kiss has always been and will be glam, and gay.

Never got cought out by the Nu-Metal trap, never owned a single piece of that fake metal crap!

KISS have never been Glam. Do you even know what Glam is? Sod off and actually listen to the first 5 KISS albums. They are no more Glam than Bad Company or Deep Purple. Sure, they wore make-up but then Bob Dylan and Alice Cooper also wore black and white make-up, does this make them Glam? Nothing about KISS' music makes them Glam. KISS went from being Classic Rock to Arena Rock to, very disturbingly, Grunge.

And KISS, gay? Excuse me but how many women has Gene Simmons bedded? Gene is a perfect role model for any red blooded male; excellent business acumen and, apparently, sex appeal.

The fact you say that Pantera became a decent band makes your existence totally pointless. Pantera always sucked regardless of who they were ripping off.

I'm finding the whole anti-KISS rhetoric on this board quite amusing now. In the past 24 hours people have used Chuck Schuldiner and Pantera in their anti-KISS musings. Seeing as Chuck and Dime were two of the biggest KISS fans of all time, I don't see the logic in this.

I fail to see how anyone can say a band is shit on here when 95% of you are all in fucking horrible bands.

Including you

Pfft, Heretic might not get the recognition of a bunch of long haired wimps with bad B.O., but the girls love us because we look like the Arctic Monkeys.

We wish. Unfortunately, we only bothered to learn re-hashed Slayer riffs.
