Topic: Genesis vs. Death Posted: April 14 2011 at 15:38 |
Well,
it seems that the flood of nonsensical, weird or quite ridiculous "Band vs. Band" polls is really neverending. Why not to cooperate on creating them, this once about Biblical theme?

Death is way better than Anderson's awful band. Starless isn't even a good piece of music.

Genesis never wrote anything even half as good as "Crystal Mountain".
Death every time.

Genesis at their best would be hard to beat, but they were very rarely at their best. Death on the other hand only got better with age.

This is off topic, but that Destroy Erase Improve image in your signature is very cool, Zargus.

Maybe no Mountain, but Fountain (Of Salmacis).

That joke wouldn't be half funny even if Genesis had a song called Crystal Fountain.

Imagine Peter Gabriel's intro speech for that one:
"Let us now travel to the icy peaks of a mountain built upon deception and greed. A place where evil takes it form and commandments are reborn. The Crystal. A bit faster Phillip. No, faster Phil. Where's Gene Hoglan when you need him?"

Is Death the end of life? Or does it have another meaning I'm not aware of?

Death! But to say the truth I would like a combination of the two bands. That's why Opeth is my favorite band.

Genesis = beginning, birth
Renaissance = re-birth, new-beginning
Exodus = procession, departiure
Amageddon = last battle on the fields of Mageddio
