    Has anyone ever heard of Chimaira? I just discovered them they are amazinggg! My favorite song of thiers would have to be "pure hatred" the bass is just awesome. The Impossibility Of Reason is without a doubt the best CD! Just thought I would share...

    Yeah, I've heard some of their stuff. I know some people who like it. I don't dig them at all, really. Just another alternative metal band.

    I've listened to Chimaira for a few years now they are a really good band. Although, i don't like their new album as much as a few of their older one's. The Impossibility Of Reason is probably my favorite cd of theirs, so i have to agree with you on that one.

    I saw them live with Killswitch and Dragonforce. They were fuckin insane. I haven't heard much of the studio stuff though.

    Well, I certainly didn't ever think I'd be reading THAT question! Slightly more mainstream to most of the Metal I'm into, and fitting into the genre 'Metalcore', I find them quite interesting with their Fear Factory-esque futuristic keyboard additions and Andols Herrick, an amazing drummer. They stnd out amongst other Metalcore acts! I have 'The Impossibility of Reason', 'A Pass Out of Existence' and their self-titled album and have to say there are many decent songs by them. 'Dead Inside' has gotta be my favourite song though.

    Imposibility of reason is definitely worth a listen once in a while. But they are a bit samey. And the drummer is a complete right-wing wankface.

    Well, they are nu-metal hardcore as fuck...

    But I've seen them 8 times nonetheless. I live in Cleveland, so they're here all the time. And it's a show worth seeing, even if they have teen angst lyrics like, "Fuck your powertrip" and "I hate everyone". It's just a good brutal pit.

    They have a pretty damn good drummer. During the '04 Spring Jager tour, the pit BROKE THE BARRIER and while it was getting fixed, he just busted out a ten minute crazy drum solo. And for being a metalcore guy, I kinda dig Mark's voice.

    I wanted to see em but i dont like dragonforce or kse really. Nothing Remains is good, as is Resurrection, Army of Me, and Salvation.

    its funny because i used to hate metal music, i did listen to a little bit of rock that came on the radio but thats it and i would alway listen to rap, thats it really. ever since i started going to heavy metal concerts, which iv seen almost every new rock band out i really liked it all.and i think thats all music in general, whenever you listen to it long enough you really start to like it. but its somthing about alot of metal bands that i love, i guess its just way more deep than any rap song could compare to me. it gets my adrenaline going, also when im at concerts. i guess i just love the feeling i get. haha no more ranting bye..
