They have made some amazing pieces of music, master composers

More into my extreme/industrial metal though. Bands like Strapping Young Lad and also Ministry do it for me. Just pure musical intensity, killing joke are another of my faves.
But I am a fan of most musics.

I'll be intrigued to see if they pull that off. I won't hold my breath, though. Bands that have been playing for as long as they have find it notoriously hard to recreate their early success. When top bands first burst onto the scene their music is fresh, original and more than a little raw. Over time, it's hard to avoid losing some of that freshness and originality: you have a sound and, once it's no longer new, it lacks some of the punch it once had. So, many bands try to reinvent themselves and end up p.issing some of their fans off in the process (a la Radiohead), while others just keep churning out the same sort of material and turn into something resembling their own tribute band (a la Red Hot Chili Peppers). Plus, as bands grow more successful most lose some of (or quite a bit of) that edge that made them so appealing in the first place and the music suffers. Take a band like U2 for instance. Their early stuff was brilliant but, IMO, they haven't put out an album worth lingering over for well over a decade. Metallica, for me, started to become victims of their own success with the 'black album' and--save for a few good songs here or there--haven't produced too much of note ever since. If they can somehow turn back the clock and reproduce the mind-bending genius of their early stuff, I'll be very, very impressed. As I say, though, I won't be holding my breath.
