CYNIC – TRACED IN AIR
album of the year!
Matt Heafy? Coldplay?! WTF!!?? Coldplay f*<kin’ suck!
Nice to see matt’s liking a bit of Maximum the Hormone. Would be nice to see a review in Metal Hammer…
coldplay fucking shite hahahaha
What about the best album of the year, Enslaved “Vertebrae”?
makes me laugh that that hack Heafy put Trivium in at 10.
Album of the year = Bleeding Through – Declaration.
probably because shogun was one of the best albums of 08 you spastic
my favourite album of the year has defo been bleeding through, they’ve gonna hella brutal. produced by Devin Townsend too which is pretty sweet! as for heafy and his coldplay loving ass, i have no comment, what a dick for putting your own band in your top 10? the only good thing he’s put there is Opeth ffs.
Heafy=self promotion.
what a surprise, put Gojira in there though, gets a tiny slither of a rumour of semi-credability back, but then loses it for double i repeat double coldplay.
rofl at the ~Coldplay.
Nowt wrong with a little self promotion – not that Trivium really need it! Shogun is an excellent album imho. Also, so what if Matt likes Coldplay – just because you don’t like them, it doesn’t instantly make them crap. I’m sure the millions of fans in this country alone will tell you that – look up the word ‘diversity’ in the dictionary and while you’re at it, get a life!!
I’m in an argumentative mood, can you tell?
Blimey Mel!
Rob Flynn what were you thinking?!
Lil Wayne?! that guy is fucking crap!
Why shouldn’t Matt have put Shogun up there, it’s definitely one of the fucking if not best metal album of the year
millions of people like coldplay
millions of people wanted hitler!
you can’t trust people
Heafy’s a coldplay fan?
i dont like their singles very much but are coldplays albums actually any good?
