Soulfly - 3

I ordered this one on Lala, not expecting much.

I'd recently got many Sepultura albums through Amazon and I love each of them, so I added all the Soulfly albums on LaLa and the first 3 were instant ship.

Definatley not Sepultura, but also not really the nu-metal it gets labeled either. Honestly, this sounds alot closer to Pantera then any nu-metal. (I'm only specifically refering to 3, I haven't gotten the other ones yet!)

With that said, I enjoy this album being a Pantera fan myself... but it really is no Sepultura... at least not the Sepultura with Max.

I had the first Soulfly and traded it.While I Love Sepultura and really like all of Max's work with them,I just couldnt get into it.It had too many Korn elements to it.

I have the first one coming, from what I heard on Amazon i'll probably be sending that one off.

Bingo.

I think its funny that people are bellyaching for Max to come back, but its not like they're going to record a masterpiece like they did in the 80, it would probably sound more like Soulfly.

I ended up getting 5 of them on LaLa (im probably going to order the last one. ) I liked the first one, 3 and Prophecy... but I ended up pushing stop a few songs into Primative.

The Derrick Green era of Sepultura is much better then Soulfly, but thats not really the point I suppose, the only point i'm making is that the people that want Max back in Sepultura would probably get a Soulfly CD with the Sepultura guys. Should they keep using the name? Probably not, but thats not for us to decide.

If you like aggressive music you'll like maybe love Soulfly's Dark Ages record. It's closer to 80's Sepultura than anything Derrick Green Sepultura have released. It's the record Soulfly should have started with!

I have that one coming! I'm looking forward to it.

If you don't mind the bad language you'll probably love this one.

Nah, never has bothered me. I curse alot myself... (but i dont tend to write it in the songs I write.)

I bought the 2-CD set of the debut album, man the live tracks rock!

i love sepultura but i hated soulfly instantly.

Many many people have based opinions off blind assumption, myself included.
