didnt realise this was in another thread, sorry.

[EvilPie]

Couldn't even find what thread it was in lol.
But anyways, its self titled. Interesting

[Asphyxiated.]

good shit, i don't mind S/T albums.

[flood]

not sure about this, black sabbath's s/t album didn't do a whole lot for metal. not very creative, they must be out of ideas.

[DIVINATION]

What are you talking about, Black Sabbath pretty much made metal......and all of their songs from there first 4 albums are fucking good.Metallica and Slayer perfected metal.

they aren't the same band. come on, you're blasting the album before it has even come out.

[rem3mberingnever]

lol people will be people

[SLITrist101]

where does it say anything about the album title?

[usa]

flood: you think that because they are calling their next release "chimaira" that they must be out of ideas? that doesn't make much sense.

if nothing remains is any indication, maybe all bands should run out of ideas.

I reckon this is the album that's really going to set Chimaira apart from every metal band today. This album is going to explode on the scene and make everyone who still label them a 'nu-metal' band, eat their words. This will be album that in future years will be deamed as a classic. Chimaira have finally discovered what they're comfortable playing and now all that's left is to build on that, which is why this album is going to kick ass.

[Abeo]

amen

[FeMetal]

Maybe they just liked the idea of naming it that?...anyway who cares about the title IMO, it's the content that I'm interrested in.

[ReasoningTheImpossible]

I could give 2 shits and a fuck what they call it. As long as the musicis good there is nothing else to worry about.

Well, it's called Chimaira and the glimpse we have been given of the cover art represents a skeletal chimaira creature. Looks pretty cool so far.

[dixectional]

right on, the new album WILL kick major ass, so who gives a fuck about the title? so long as it isn't something totally bizarre and non-serious.

you guys blow at picking up sarcasm no matter how ludicrious the statement is. why would i call out the album that basically created heavy metal and say it didn't influence anything? fucking morons.

[SLITrist101]

sarcasm is very hard to note at times over a messageboard

yeah, Im a fucking moron. I should definetly be able to pick up on somebody's sarcasm that I don't know, especially when we are'nt speaking person to person.

[SLITrist101]

[ChevyRacing1727]
