I dunno, I love Karnivool. :shrug: Until Misha told me about them a while back I just had never heard of them before, guess not enough promotion online maybe?

Sorry, how is that a fail? He is allowed to dislike the tracks just as much as you are allowed to like them.

Yeah. Apparently if you have any opinion against a trend here (i.e: Djent, djunk, bwow...) you're considered a troll and get neg rep'd

No. Karnivool rules, anyone who doesn't like them is WRONG.

to be successful in the music scene right now you need five things:

1/ auto tuned vocals throughout.
2/ cameo by a rapper.
3/ a speech impediment (i.e. p-poker face, umbrella-ella-ella-eh-eh ).
4/ shamelessly transparent innuendo to form the majority of your lyrics.
5/ the name of a famous producer in brackets after your song title.

Karnivool has insufficient quantities of the above.

/thread.

Because people are stupid.

Karnivool is the best band ever...with possibly the worst name...

:rofl: I never heard any song by them until now, it's pretty good :D, but yeah, the name is terrible, I was expecting some weird mix between
Cannibal Corpse and folk elements

They'll break through in the states eventually. they dont force themselves down the listeners throat as much as other bands do.

Sorry man, but those djent kids seem to be more militant than most about their music, so you never know. Other than the fact this guy's name is "Jake" (perhaps) and he likes periphery, I don't know anything about the how, so how should I know if he is joking /trolling or completely serious? Dead pan delivery never comes across well on the net :lol:
