Army Officer Fronts Metal Band

[BruisedEyeSockets]

Jesus christ, #5 Decible?? Fucking love Cobalt.. Probably my favorite band.

[Me4tSp1n]

I would say blackened post-metal

[Fetrey]

Cobalt isn't black metal. they don't dress up like black metal bands do, they don't write about black metal themes, and they don't even consider themselves black metal.

If you had to put a label on Cobalt, ithey're a mix between extreme metal and prog metal (like a much, MUCH more extreme version of Tool).

[Atrumus]

Cobalt IS black metal. Image has nothing to do with it.

[Fetrey]

not black metal, faggot. mayhem is black metal.  cobalt is not.

[Atrumus]

Obvious black metal newb. I'm out.

[FaderSemen]

@Fetrey: You didn't say anything about what the actual music sounds like. Isn't that what comes first, rather than clothes and lyrical themes?

[mustasparta]

the arguing in this is stupid

bottomline: Cobalt is fucking tits

*thumbs up

[Stilkk]

@arcturo777 Hahaha agreed

[XxDregeNxX]

And I think this interview was pretty terrible, but it's from FOX so hey, what more can you get...

[lykathea87]

"So, basically, it's about killing"? Fuck you.

[usefulidiot227]

At first I thought this interview was gonna really blow, being that it's fox news. But the guy actually seemed like he enjoyed the album, which is just kinda weird, being that he's on fox news. I dunno, I've never watched the Red Eye thing or have any idea what it is. Either way, great band. Gin is one of my favorite albums of 09.

[HybridTimes]

Fuck yea! Cobalt is fucking awesome!

[emericashoes]

At least this band is a Black Metal band and not a deathcore fag band. I give more respect for black metal bands anyday rather then to some job for a cowboy/sucide silence clone band with breakdowns up the ass. Fuck that.

[TheReapersSon]

Look at those tards at the beginning. Goddamn, I wanna bomb the fuck out of that building

[TheReapersSon]

Wow, Fox shows once again why they will forever be a joke

[bojangles240]

yes cbsbyte you are SO right because nothing says "i'm a bad ass" like having the worst living conditions in the military an also thinking you are more superior than the other branches. you total nailed it.

[cbsbyte]

He's a pussy for joining the Army. If he wanted to be a man join the Marines.

[n1bleachfreak]

@cbsbyte

In war I dont think it really matters.

[usefulidiot227]

I once heard that Marine was actually an acronym for Muscles Are Required Intelligence Not Expected. haha

[aldrichp]

The album is awesome.

[NjDubstep13Lb13]

arsonry? funny since it sounds like an old nj band called arson..hahahahah

[Entropy56]

In Vietnam they sat on a stack of Playboys so what does that have to do with anything?

[SecureBurgerTown]

Why would Fox News even care!?

[TheBigMclargehuge]

Fuck fox news. Censor me, bitches.

[MrMemag]

You should hear white phosphorous, from Gaza.

[MrMemag]

And eat shit an all side dishes.

[Gazellington]

Fuck.

[DEATHBYSOCIALIST]

i think it is cool this guy be a metal frontman and a soldier truly he can see the horrors of WAR

[zookaba1]

Why does the title say army officer if the guy is a staff sgt?

[Blacha970]

Bad ass! Cobalt pimps the media!

[serenityinfire777]

@bryanCUFF

Do you mean "hear?"

[bryanCUFF]

Yes I meant "Hear". Sorry, long day at work. I actually am literate.

[lonewolfimmortal]

Honestly, I'd say Greg (the main host) likes the band. He's had artists ranging from Gwar to Fucked Up on the show.

[mrbobsevil]

I love metal, but I think these guys are terrible.

[KickAss667]

have you heard the whole album?

no? then STFU

[mrbobsevil]

No, I haven't. And I don't ever plan to. You know why? Because I know it would sound the same as whatever this shit is in the video.

No, I will not STFU. I have the right to express whatever opinion I might have about anyone or anything. Thats exactly what I did, express an opinion. And if you don't like people expressing opinions, then the internet is not for you.

Let me guess... You are a butthurt member of the band or a friend of the band?

[KickAss667]

you don't know, since you never heard it so Shut the fuck up you fucking troll

and no I'm not butt hurt nor I have heard the band

I just don't like false metal heads

also technically you don't have an opinion since you haven't tried it

[mrbobsevil]

A band doesn't change their style of playing for every song they produce. You know that.

I'm not a troll. Do you even know what a troll is?

And yes, I do have an opinion. You can take a bite of a piece of cake, and make a decision of whether you like it or not. You do not have to eat the whole fucking cake to have your own god damned opinion about it.

For the second time, no. I will not "shut the fuck up".

[Bodycage]

shut the fuck up.

[Bodycage]

you're a monumental faggot.

[Adriankat]

"Because I know it would sound the same as whatever this shit is in the video." Dumbass. They only showed a few seconds of an hour long album. Cobalt is progressive black metal.

[Adriankat]

They're not like 1349 where they just BLASTBLASTBLAST all the time. They're like Deathspell Omega, where they actually convey all sorts of human emotions. There's a lot of chanting prayers in it.

[phili666]

theres your mistake, cobalts music changes a lot throughout the album

also, if you didn't like what was in the video.....then you dont have good taste

[Bodycage]

faggot, lol

[RobotRock0101]

"So basically it's about killing!" WHAT?! Obviously that puppet of Fox News was too ignorant to make a remotely intelligent reply. Metal CAN have overwhelmingly intelligent lyrics and themes, so don't downplay or dumb it down. Thanks. I doubt that idiot has even read (or maybe heard) of Nietzsche, Hunter S. Thompson, or Hemmingway.

[n1bleachfreak]

@RobotRock0101

true

[n1bleachfreak]

My 5 fav albums in general are:

Bless The Martyr And Kiss The Child- Norma Jean (Josh Scogin era)

Back Breaker- The Showdown

The Oncoming Storm- Unearth

Messengers- August Burns Red

An Ocean Between Us- As I Lay Dying

[swampers1]

@n1bleachfreak Negative Points.

[n1bleachfreak]

How did I get 7 thumbs down?

[DemolisherovChrist]

"...so basically it's about killing! HURGH HURGH HUH HAW"

[n1bleachfreak]

lol

[n1bleachfreak]

sweet!!

[maddne0]

Damn, Cobalt on Red Eye?

[speedmonkey]

God damn this is stupid as shit. FuCk YeAh MeTaL!!!!

[eyehatehippies666]

This is an awesome album, nice to see it get some coverage.

[bestdeathfan]

the top 2 albums of 09 World Painted Blood by Slayer, and Evisceration plague by Cannibal Corpse BUY THEM!!

[Bodycage]

shit albums, fag.

[bestdeathfan]

shut the fuck up you lonely fuckin virgin, how bout you fuckin go jack off or somethin cuz i know you don't have anything better to do with your pathetic life, and lol you prolly like some fuckin american idol shit you retard

[Bodycage]

you named really shit albums, don't cry about it faggot.

[bestdeathfan]

wtvr your just a little queermo fuckin dickface so go listen to ur emo shit

[phili666]

what a brilliant and intelligent argument.

CC have gone way downhill and never were amazing, they're decent

slayer suck, bad vocalist, terrible guitarists

[bestdeathfan]

im not even gonna give a long debate on why you are gay im just gonna say youre a fag

[phili666]

good, intelligent response and retort again, must have taken some time to structure that eh?

i don't get your name, you call your self a death fan but dont seem to know any bands that are death metal besides the really famous cannibal corpse. and you like slipknot ? lol

slipknot are a disgrace, what are you 12?

[bestdeathfan]

umm i actually like tons of death metal bands you retard i like suicide silence, suffocation, morbid angel, job for a cowboy, six feet under, nile, death, and others that im not gonna say right now,

[phili666]

suicide silence, job for a cowboy and 6 feet under are faggot deathcore

nile, death, morbid angel and suffocation are all really popular death metal bands.

proving you dont know shit

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

I dont know wether to 'lol' at that, or actually feel sorry for you. Suicide Silence and Job For A Gayboy ? They are Deathcore, not Death Metal. If you knew what you were talking about.... you would know the difference.

[bestdeathfan]

i know they're deathcore you faggot but it fuckin derives from the same genre you stupid faggot

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

Wrong... Deathcore comes from Metalcore. Metalcore comes from Hardcore Punk. Not Metal. Therefore proving you know nothing about the music you listen to.... once again. I suggest not going on anymore and save yourself the embarrasment.

[bestdeathfan]

lol wow if only you knew that deathcore comes from death metal and metalcore so you should fuckin shut your retarded prollly 40 year old ass and learn some fuckin shit you stupid cunt

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

Wrong.... Its an offshoot of Metalcore, with Death Metal elements to spice it up. Therefore Metalcore being the main element within the music. And we all know where Metalcore comes from. Hense the CORE. Learn your shit please.

[bestdeathfan]

lol its funny that you thnk ur right and also jfac isnt even really deathcore anymore so get your facts straight you stupid lonely pathetic old man,

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

It's funny how you think Deathcore is Metal. And enlighten me to what JFAC is now please..... They still have Deathcore roots no matter what shit rolls off your tounge. Why am i even bothering with someone who still thinks Slipknot is Metal... Honestly. Oh and your childish insults are pathetic. You cant win an argument, so you resort to name calling. Very mature kid.

[bestdeathfan]

you keep puttin in slipknot like its my fuckin sanctuary of a fuckin band which its not so how bout you use somethin else, and the reason im using insults is cuz its true you are a dried up old man who cant get a girl and sits alone in the corner, and i dont jsut listen to death metal i do listen to other genres which include much better bands

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

I mentioned Slipknot ONCE. Learn to fucking read. It was the other guy who was mentioning Slipknot previously. And how would you know its true ? Oh wait, you dont. You just think its clever to throw insults about when you cant win an argument. Really childish tbh.

What other band/genres do you listen to ? Enlighten me.

[stabyourcat]

I would say that metalcore definitely comes from metal as well as hardcore.

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

Metalcore was actually named 'Metalcore' before it even started to introduce Melodic Death Metal elements. It was just a form of agressive Hardcore Punk during the late 80's. As i've said

[XxDregeNxX]

@DevilMayCryMaster666

Yes, but the kind of metalcore you were bashing the other guy about does incorporate metal elements.

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

Woah woah, wait up.... You're changing your statement now ? You just clearly said to me, they BOTH derive from Metal. When that's complete bollocks. Now you're agreeing with what im saying, but saying i was talking about a different form of Metalcore? Make your mind up.

Oh and Black Metal is far more than just a form of music, wether you or anyone else likes it or not. Its main ideology/foundation is to get a message across to attack Christianity.

[XxDregeNxX]

@DevilMayCryMaster666

Yes, I did change my statement. You proved me wrong on the general basis, but I'm still retaining the point I was trying to get across.

And really, do you even... you know... Take time to enjoy the music? Or do you just get so absorbed in the culture that you becoming blind to anything else? Kind of hypocritical, seeing as you want to attack Christians for that same exact thing.

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

My point is proven with the Metalcore. But as for the taking time to enjoy music.... Of course i do. As i've said previously, i listen to Music because it appeals to me and sounds good, but i also do my research on the history and culture so i actually know about the music i listen to. I have separate opinions of Christians as it is, not linking to Black Metal. I think its a scum religion. All i need to say is 'the crusades'. If you know your history, you will know what i mean.

[XxDregeNxX]

@DevilMayCryMaster666

They both derive from metal. Deathcore is basically heavier metalcore, which takes elements from metal and mixes it with -core. So it IS derived from metal, whether your elitist ass likes it or not.

Of course, you can always tell who the 'troo metul' elitists are because they always have 666 in their names. How original.

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

Well done, it takes ELEMENTS from Metal. Which means the main foundation of it is Hardcore Punk. A form of more agressive Hardcore Punk, was already named 'Metalcore' during the late 80's even before they started taking Melodic Death Metal riffs from the pioneers such as At The Gates. So dont give me all that bullshit which is 'it's derived from Metal'. Because it's not. Learn your stuff before making your mouth go.

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

Oh and another thing..... You're completely fucking oblivious to what my name even means.... Not to mention its generally 'Metulheads' who use 666, not 'Elitists'. And my name has nothing to do with music, so once again, you've just proved your ignorance.

[DevilMayCryMaster666]

Are you also some sorta hypocrit ? You listen to Black Metal, in which the main foundation is Anti-Christian, yet you have shit like Creed favourited. Which is VERY Christian, and expresses it in their music. Seriously just dont even TRY and have a go at me, when you're pulling shit like that.

[XxDregeNxX]

@DevilMayCryMaster666

What makes you think I care about lyrics? I can see both points of view. I'm not Christian by any means, but I won't bash those who are.

You know, maybe I just step outside the box, and listen to music that sounds good to me instead of saying "omg it's so christian, and it sux because i listen to black metul". It's irrational.

And I did say that metalheads use 666, hence the term "troo metul elitists", which are generally what metalheads are.

[hartley10]

OMG u r such a no0b - deathcore isn't derived from either metalcore or death metal it IS A COMPLETELY ORIGINAL GENRE. Job for a Cowboy is not deathcore anyhow, they is old-skool-thrash-core. And Slipknot is, although often mistaked for 'new-metal' or thrash metal they is actually have A DJ SO ARE punk-disco/techcore punkcore.

[georock123]

@hartley10

Obvious troll is obvious.

[XxDregeNxX]

@hartley10

Your stupid troll attempt made me laugh, thanks.

[guy12343456]

Can you name bands that he didn't name already?

[Stilkk]

@bestdeathfan haha they were probaly the worst metal albums of 2009 imo and i think a lot of people would agree with me.

[bestdeathfan]

ya prolly not

[MrMemag]

Cow balls.

[DemolisherovChrist]

Great band.

[calosity]

Buy it, because they said so!

[MickeyLWalker]

meshuggah is better
