Whether it's a good call or not has nothing to do with my question. I don't recall the Wire ever giving props to the overall type of music Celtic Frost play (and I don't think it's unfair to call them old school death metal as they've been around forever and whatever they play is based around the sound they pioneered which is what was originally called "Death Metal", it wasn't a dis, I'd call Einsturzende Neubauten, who I worship, old school industrial to differentiate them from NIN bullshit.)
It seems Sunn O)) have succeeded mightily in their mission of bringing the good word of metal to the academics at the Wire, which is all I was ever commenting on.
