THE FASTEST, THE LOUDEST, THE HIGHEST ...but not the best

To add onto what Twang said: Emotion is also completely subjective. Don't pretend that it's something that one song has, and another doesn't.

I honestly don't think that a band can be faulted for having musical prowess (and using it). There are plenty of bands I can name that do this to a much higher extent than Nitro (which isn't even all that bad). It seems to me like disliking an ice cream flavour because there are sprinkles on it.

No, Nitro is not the band to listen to when you want music with a lot of substance. However, for over-the-top hair metal, they are the first band I look to.

So few bands ever write anything of substance in the first place. Given that songwriting ability is such a rare commodity, I'll give the benefit of the doubt to a band that can play their instruments competently over one that can't any day.

That said, the "Freight Train" song was irritating, and having never heard any other Nitro, I'm not eager to check them out.

-While listening to "Machine Gunn Eddie"-

OMFGWTF.

That song is hair metal. Hair metal at its worst.

The solo is ridiculous, and that's not a good thing either. It's amazing, yes, but absolute crap. MAB just wants to show off. He's not contributing to the song or the band at all. He should just solo tour.

Same goes for the vocals. High screams for like 30 seconds gives me a headache. Jim does it like 4 times! You're just like "STOP!"

By the way, it got into Brutal Legend because your character gets dual machine guns, and his names Eddie. LOL.

In regards to Freight Train, it was meh. It did have potential, you are right on that one, but it didn't take off. And the quad-guitar - it was stupid. It was ridiculous. It was absurd. It was taking metal to a insanely stupid new level. I loved it.
