i guess depending on the song, the used can be pop...some of their songs are definitely in the rock genre however, so i figure they're a mixture.
Avenged Sevenfold-lengthy music, sometimes repeating the same progressions over and over almost to the point where you just want to scream "END THE FU@#$(# SONG, GET TO THE GOOD ENDING"...in other words, some of their songs would be just as good without repetition
Thrice-constant quarter notes pounding on drum/singer sounding bout the same in every song, although right now im not sure what to think of their new cd, definitely more mellow but more experimentation with vocals/ think they could come up with more advanced parts, especially in the drumming, but for some reason tend to stick to the same old pound out the rhythm technique
tsunami bomb-albums are too clean....they are very punkish in concert as compared to the clean/remixed sound given on their recent albums.
metallica-one thing, drummer...doesnt play complex rhythms worth shit on most album songs/very repetitive quarter notes, sometimes fast bass beats, but for the most part, very much same pattern in all the songs....all other band members🙂awesome
