but to me, Korn and the Monkees are better than DT

have you heard many Korn or the Monkees, especially the superb psychedelic album Head?

Now this is one of your silliest ever statements, just read what you`ve written again.

Il Duce did said Korn made a superb made. Even most of their fans would not agree with that. There's nothing silly about that statement.

And I respect your opinion even if it is absurd to me. So how come you feel the right to call people trolls just because their opinions seem absurd to you?

Well if hell doesn`t freeze over, you need me to explain that to you!!!

Would they really be FANS of the band if they didn`t think they had some great albums? I mean people don`t become fans of a band, if they think their material is just medicocre.

Superb and great are not the same thing.

i don't think so - you said the Beatles are big because they're marketed well in another thread, the same principle could be applied to DT yet i'm not fazed by the marketing

the Beatles are big because they're good - you can't spend billions on marketing disguising sh!t as gold

but your opinions are unjustified and self-contradictory - you claim Lennon-McCartney can't write for sh!t yet spend a vast amount of time listening to them

for me, DT can'r write for sh!t and I'm done listening to them. EVER. AGAIN.

So you`re into semantics now! In the context of music and their fans, it would be safe to say that fans of Korn would view some of their albums (mostly the early stuff) as great or superb, why wouldn`t they? The nu-metal sound they cherish is very evident on Korn`s early releases, especially the debut album which is seen as a classic of that sub-genre.

This is not another thread.

As I posted a couple days earlier I listen to them because of their melody and fluidness.

Btw everyone thinks their opinions make sense (even I). In reality they are just opinions. You think Korn is better than Dream Theater? Think as you like. The same applies to me. Since we disagree that is why we debate about it.

Once you cross the line and call someone a troll because their opinions don't match up with yours you've pretty much lost the right to say you like Justin Beiber.
