any other death heads?

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Moonsorrow is a great band...

I need to find more of their stuff then just the Voimasta Ja Kunniasta album.

Folk and viking metal = \m/

[Ihsahn]

I absolutely adore Moonsorrow, almost everything they've done. Thier new album is quite good, and still very long and epic.

On another note, I was listening to some Psypheria that I got from Ninjamonkey and was pleasantly surprised to find that the intro to the second track was the main motif from Bach's "Little Fugue" in G minor... I'm really getting into this Psypheria so far, though the keys seem a bit out of place sometimes.

[Freezing Moon]

Has anybody ever heard of Demilich? I ran into them surfing the internet the other day and I think they're pretty good.

They have all their stuff up for download at http://demilich.doesntexist.com/.

Definitly worth checking out... especially since it's free!

[methodlessman]

Yeah I got the whole album off their site, its some pretty good stuff.

Yeah, I know this guy who's english teacher was one of the guitarists in Psypheria. He said that he's stopped playing metal and is playing classical now. haha

Death metal rules. here's a few I like:

Arch Enemy(amazing band, and the lead singer is HOT!!! what more could you ask for???)
What more could I ask for? How about getting rid of Angela and bringing back Johan 'Liiva' Axelsson?

In Flames - melodic death, and was not even close to black metal in any way ever.

Man, I've been feeling so untr00 lately as I've been listening to a lot of Rush. Exit...Stage Left is amazing.

Other than that, I've been getting a bit more into Doom Metal and getting back into Black Metal. Right now I'm looking for more bands a bit like 1349, that have the aggression and rawness of the older BM bands, but actually sound good too. Any suggestions?

[atremore]

I've never heard 1349, but I've heard good things about them. Is it true that Frost is their drummer? Could you give me a description of their sound?

As for new bands that have the rawness of old BM, but sound good, try Abyssic Hate or Goatsblood (sludgy, fvcked up doom/ black metal)

Yeah, Frost is their permanant member and is ****ing AMAZING on the drums. They have very atmospheric music, but its very raw and aggressive with no synths or anything :thumb: and is right now probably my favorite BM group. Its kinda hard to relate them to any groups, as I don't know very much about BM, but the music reminds me of some Immortal I have heard, and the vocals are your standard BM vocals, but are pretty good.

Thanks for the suggestions too.

[ninjamonkey]

Pelican rules.

[atremore]

Yeah, Frost is their permanant member and is ****ing AMAZING on the drums.

Frost is the man! I love his style on Satyricon, it really stands out as original. Have you seen that Satyricon DVD from 2000? Frost is such a tripper, just the way he is on the road doing day to day things.

Thanks for the info on 1349, I'll keep an eye out for them for sure!

:lol: man Geddy Lee is a phenomenal bassist! All of the songs on here are great too, which is cool because on most albums theres a couple songs you don't like, but this album is great the whole way through. I need to get the Rio DVD now.

what do you guys think of SADIST?

[Ve Das]

I've been thinking the same thing for a couple weeks now I just keep forgetting to mention it. I'd say wait until after the holidays. That way we'll most likely have new cd's we can include tracks from, and we're not rushing around trying to fight crowds at the post office. Maybe wait until like the 2nd week in January?

Thing is,Jondur hasn´t sent me anything yet so until I get summat,I´m on hiatus in that reguard.

They were power metal.Now they´re crossover.

Moonsorrow is awesome, but it just sounds a bit weird because of the finnish lyrics, if you understand them. I might like them even more if the lyrics were norwegian or swedish so i wouldnt understand every word.. Its just because finnish is not like english, it just doesnt sound very good in death or black metal. uhh i cant explain

yeah man i dont get what youre saying at all. Then again I know nothing about finnish other than it is not an indo european language. The finnish itself seems to flow with the music well though, even though for all i know the lyrics could be about leprochauns dancing under rainbows while making sweet love to a christmas ham. Then again, with Henri in that band, that might not be so out of the ordinary.

[LordDargon]

Wrong, to the n00b who asked, The Ultra Violence is quite good. In fact if you look in the CD Reviews list, you can find a review I did of that.

Dark Angel are better though.

hmm.. yes it does flow with the music, but it just sounds odd and i cant.. aaa, its impossible to explain. The lyrics are fine, if you look at the translations from darklyrics.com they seem alright in english, but in finnish they sound a bit dull and to be honest a bit funny.. but nevermind. to you it sounds different than it does to me..

[MorduM]

The Ultra Violence is a **** good album! havent heard much of Dark Angel, but Death Angel is good!

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

Yes, Demilich rules.

I disagree.

I've never heard 1349, but I've heard good things about them. Is it true that Frost is their drummer? Could you give me a description of their sound?

They are pretty aggressive black metal, due in large part to Frost's drumming ability.

Other than that, I've been getting a bit more into Doom Metal and getting back into Black Metal. Right now I'm looking for more bands a bit like 1349, that have the aggression and rawness of the older BM bands, but actually sound good too. Any suggestions?

No, but I think I want to now.

I do too :eek: <3

I'm not a big fan of Death, the only bands that are death metal, that I know for sure I like are Morbid Angel and Brutality.

I'd say no, I love that album.

[Ihsahn]

Am I a bad person if I don't really like The Necrophagist at all? :p

[XoListenen]

Yes, yes you are.

[manuscriptreplica]

Listen to Necrophagist for the technicality, and the stupidly good solos

[Bartender]

I rather like Necrophagist outside of the solos, as well. I much prefer Onset to Epitaph, though.

[Ihsahn]

I just got bored of them, is all.

[xizoesira]

I'm not a big fan of them either, Ihsahn. I'll listen to them here and there, and Muhammed is extremely talented, but I'm certianly not shitting my pants at it as many of the death heads do because music that focuses so much on technicality just doesn't engage me.

Though I admit they have their moments.

*growls mutilate the stillborn to self*

[Dancin' Man]

I think that is one of the best parts of Necrophagist. Super technicality but there is still emotion, especially in the solos. Hard to find that generally.

[Cardboard Headgear]

I like Epitaph better because I think the songwriting is better, they actually come off more as songs that are technical than technical exercises in the shape of songs.

[manuscriptreplica]

I think the opposite, Onset was pure death metal, and Epitaph was just a wank off

I managed to snag some mp3s of the Mortem EP, Slow Death, in order to answer my own question, and its quite good. Riffing is kinda blackened in some places, songs are short with the longest one being 3:33 long but the vocals are somewhat ****ed. They're masked under a wall of distortion and reverb, and the first time they kicked in I was having a hard time figuring out if they were vocals or some weird guitar or drum effect. Its kinda funny that this band ended up evolving into Arcturus.

[Silenius]

Could anyone in here reccomend me some stuff along the lines of Cirith Gorgor, Marduk, and Lord Belial?

Thanks :thumb:

All you guys complaining about having emo-length hair...
Take advantage of it while you can, girls are crazy over that hair style. Quit bitching and get bitches!

[Ihsahn]

I had hair about halfway down my back until mid September, at which point I cut it due to me going bald :/. I'm ****in 17 years old and am already losing my hair. I swear, sometimes it sucks so badly to be brown. There's two types of brown people. Those with really thick hair, and those with no hair. All males on both sides of my family happened to fall into the latter category :(.

Apocalyptic Revelation and Conquerors of Armageddon.

And if you get CoA you will definitely also want to download the song March of the Black Hordes from AR.

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

So, i saw Trans-Siberian orchestra last night. I was pleasantly surprised when Alex Skolnick came on and played with them for the show because i had heard he wasn't touring with them.
They put on the best live show i've ever seen, by far.

[manuscriptreplica]

Now that's a cool present. :eek:

What if you grow tired of darkthrone though?

I just wasn't going to say anything. But that's exactly why I would never get a band tattoo.

So...manuscript...what exactly is the tattoo going to be? Darkthrone's logo?


It will be the logo, probably on the top of my arm

And if I get sick of the band, at least I'll always have a gr1m logo on my arm

[LordDargon]

I saw these guys under RCA's files under "non-metal". What kind of music are they?

That was at Per Ardua.

Manu: Knowing you, you'll grow tired of Darkthrone and call them "generic" or "monotonous" within a couple of weeks :p

[LegionsofMarduk]

Setherial is quite similiar to Marduk, though I'm not overly familiar with the others. Just a few songs by each. Terminal will know a ton I'm sure.

[manuscriptreplica]

Ha, probably. If they ever sell out I'll have to amputate my arm

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

They are christmas music but metal-ized, you've probably heard some of there stuff.

At Dargon.

[LordDargon]

Ha, probably. If they ever sell out I'll have to amputate my arm
No, you can just burn some of the surface flesh off with acid.

They are christmas music but metal-ized, you've probably heard some of there stuff.
I don't recall hearing any christmas music particularly metal-sounding, but I have heard some xmas songs played with electric guitars.

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

That's probably it.

Cirith Gorgor fill an especially unique niche in black metal, and there's isn't really anyone that sounds that similar to them, although I do know some bands who might sate your appetite for aggressive black/death metal, namely:
Axis of Advance- Evanescent Judgement and Nix the Sphere are good places to start, as well as all of the Strike album.
Sigrblot- Not as bombastic or brutal as the above bands, but same intensity with great melodies and speed. Crisis of Faith and Sacrament are two of my favorite songs from Blodsband. Probably my favorite black metal band of the moment.
Allfather- Some of the most intense black/death metal out there. The riffs are well-written and extremely well complimented by the huge and destructive drums behind it. I currently only have the Promo 2001, which I love, but their newest, Weapon of Ascention, is out in January, and the samples from it sound great.
Hate Forest- One of the best things to ever come out of the Ukraine. Battlefields is probably my favorite release, but Purity and Scythia are also great. The last EP, Resistance, was also very good. Our Fading Horizons is a good song from the Battlefields era, where Domination from Purity represents a more basic style, without the atmospheric flair of Battlefields.

Probably not exactly what you're looking for, but all excellent bands, none the less.

[ninjamonkey]

hey ninjamonkey! I found Psypheria - Embrace the Mutation CD and I'm thinking of ordering it along with some other stuff. The link to their official site wont work so I have to ask you about the vocals: are they of the low gutteral ones?
Where did you find to buy it?
Yes, the vocals are gutteral and low.

I'd like to be recommended something if you'll humour me. A friend of mine recently told me to check out Benediction without recommending anything. As they're Death Metal and this is a Death Metal thread I was wondering what album would be good to start off with.

Much Obliged!

[bassaholica2004]

I just heard some Vintersorg, and its really wierd. The music seems to me like Power Metal. I don't like his clean vocals either, they don't really fit with the music IMO. A bit of a letdown from the good stuff I've heard about him. :(

Also, I got Immortal's At the Heart of Winter, and its great. They have great atmosphere without all the synths and whatever. Still one of my favorite BM bands.

NP: Immortal- Tradgedy Blows at Horizon

[Cardboard Headgear]

You don't like Vintersorg? I'm sorry, but you're going to have to leave the thread.

What songs did you hear? His solo stuff has two distinctly different sounding eras to it.

It was from the Focusing Blur album.

It was from the Focusing Blur album.

Nothing about that album seems power metal at all, on top of that its a completely amazing album. :confused:

[bassaholica2004]

Nothing about that album seems power metal at all, on top of that its a completely amazing album. :confused:
Maybe its the wrong album then? It sounds very much like a Power Metal album to me. Not like Sonata Artica or stuff like that, but the lead riffs seem to be rather upbeat and Power Metallish. The vocals aren't in the high pitch style like most, but he sings like a Power Metal guy. I probably got the wrong band :lol:

[A Dark Wisdom]

I bought Eaten Back to Life by Cannibal Corpse Yesterday....This really changed my mind about them.

I bought it just because I didn't have an actual Cannibal Corpse cd. This cd is so much better than a lot of other stuff I've heard from them.

[Stoic]

Where did you find to buy it?
Yes, the vocals are gutteral and low.


A mailorder here has it. Do you actually own it?


By the way, do you guys trade stuff with people from the net?

[CaptainWaits]

I don't but I'm sure other people do

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

Any non-Vintersorg fans/lovers are not welcome here.

[LegionsofMarduk]

Every so often we'll all have a round of tape trades. It's getting about time again.

:( Vintersorg doesn't seem very Black/Death metal, or extreme, but whatever.

Other than that, has anyone heard Fullmoon? They got pretty good reviews, and I'm trying to find some on Soulseek.

[LegionsofMarduk]

I'll try to remember to e-mail Jon tomorrow when I get to work. I think I've still got a few e-mail addresses from the last round. It would be cool if we could get some more people in on it. I dunno...guess we'll see.

Then work your way forward. You shouldn't be disappointed with any of them if you like that album.

What is the name of the song?
"A Sphere in a Sphere" is the one I heard. The guy is good, he is very talented, but its just not my kinda stuff.

[NJMetalMeister]

That is the right band/album/song, but it aint power metal. And that kinda stuff he does needs to grow on you a bit. Listen to the Til Fjälls album, you will probably like it better

OK cool, thanks. I started listening to this band expecting Black Metal, so I guess thats why its a bit of a letdown. I'll give it another try though.

I sometimes try and decipher AN lyrics, but it's almost impossible, like with Gilla Bruja.

Just a post to say that I'm up for another CD trade, definitely.

To give this post a little more point, I'm currently really liking Cruachan. Not their black metal stuff, though, just the good old heavy metal.

Can someone explain the CD Trade?

Do you fill up a CD with songs you like and htink other people might not have heard? or what?

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

The Cd trade is when a bunch of mxers make a compilation of songs and burn them onto a cd and send that CD to their assigned mxer.

[Terminal Spirit]

How about Anaal Nathrakh? I haven't heard any of the bands you listed so I'm probably pwning myself but they are fu.cking intense BM.

It's a different style of black metal. While Anaal Nathrakh is indeed quite intense, there are so in a different way than Allfather. Anaal Nathrakh using very raw production on fast blasting drums with rather chaotic guitars and vocals to achieve their level of intensity. In contrast, Allfather have precise riffs and drumming with relatively clear production, but the music in all forms is very complex, and even concussive in the drumming aspect.

[Stoic]

The Cd trade is when a bunch of mxers make a compilation of songs and burn them onto a cd and send that CD to their assigned mxer.

The other kind of trade is what I have in mind, where you send (via traditional mail) a CD of yours to another guy and after he receives it he will hopefully send you a CD of his own and the opposite. (eg my zos kia cultus for your close to a world below).

[shamed-angel]

For example, I searched the thread and here is a tracklist of the cd I sent to Per Ardua:

Faustcoven - Annointed n Flames
Craft - World Of Plague
Moonblood - In A Bloody Night Of Fullmoon
Blodsrit - I Vantan Pa Dod
Frozen Shadows - Adrift In The Supulchral Snow
Nattstrype - As The Past Stands By
Setherial - Among The Flames
Wulfhere - To The Mountains Of Shadow
Bethledeign - Legions
Vardoger - Footprints Of Thunder
Lucifer - Watching The Christians Burn
Axis Of Perdition - Reflections Of The Underdark
Primordial - The Heratics Age
Forefather - The Fighting Man
Thus Defiled - A Crimson Vision In The Blade Of Shadowfire
Sinners Bleed - The Ludo Game
Ebony Tears - Harvester Of Pain
Grimfist - Primal Aggression

They are done using traditional mail. Someone makes a cd, takes it to the post office and sends it to the other MXer. Metalfan-You still want to be in on it since it's not exactly what you thought it was? How about you ninja? I"ll probably send out an e-mail to everyone on Friday. That should give people enough time to see the thread and get me their e-mail addy. Plus I don't have to work Friday so I'll have time to do it!

"Effigy of the Forgotten" is their second best in my mind, cuz nothing beats "Pierced From Within"......I fu*king love that album to sh*t

But Necroticism would deffinetly be a good choice too (just not as melodic if thats wat u want)........and Symphonies of the Sickness is amazing too, but not as good as the other 2

[Bartender]

Well Carcass changed their sound a lot from album to album, so it depends what style you're interested in.

Reek of Putrefaction/Symphonies of Sickness - if you want grind.
Necroticism - for death metal.
Heartwork - for melodic death metal.

Anyone heard of a band called Reverend Kriss Hades? I looked em up on M-A, and the review say its the most twisted extreme album they've ever heard, and I wanna hear it. I found someone with the album on Soulseek, but he's not on. :evil:

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

[Stoic]

you guys were so right about Psycroptic, they are incredible! I'll look for them in the stores on Tuesday and I've already sent an e-mail to unique leaders asking them if they accept hidden cash

[CaptainWaits]

^^Yeh Psycroptic is a great Technical Death Metal band......I love "The Scepter of The Ancients" album

[Stoic]

^
not only are they technical but their songs are catchy as hell like power metal!

[CaptainWaits]

^^ Yes they are......I'd have them as my second favorite Death Metal band, just behind Kataklysm

[Corporal Compendia]

I saw Macabre last night in Toronto. Those guys may be getting old now, but they still crush! Corporate Death is just plain funny to watch... the facial expressions he makes when he does the high pitched vocals are great.
They played plenty of new and old songs... loads of energy from the band. Loads of booze going around the building. Good freakin' times!

[Ihsahn]

In conversation with many fellow metal heads who've listened to death metal and black metal for years, I've found that without exception, every single one of them loves some kind of folk/industrial/electonica/drums&bass music. Personally, I am a huge fan of Death in June, Garmana, Puissance, Sol Invictus, Juno Reactor, Dead can Dance, and Der Blutharsche.

How about the rest of you?

When in the mood I love some Folk type of music. Especially fantasy-based music, like music based of LOTR, stuff like that.

Also, electronica can be really good when you're high. Seriously, nothing is better than having a strobelight and some pounding techno beat while you're high. Its like it increases your thinking capacity, for me at least. Thoughts just flow across your mind, and its so great.

[albinobuttcheeks]

does anyone one here do, or know of anyone who would create a band logo for free/cheap??

[Lord Julian]

A lot of dm / bm heads like different styles because they can relate to them and just because the genre necissarily isn't metal it does represent some beautiful melody. Thats why you see some bands incorperating folkish elements into harsher catagories (ie: Ulver, Opeth)

On topic yes I am a bm / dm head! :D

[Lord Julian]

Yes, feel free to pm / email me and we'll talk further.

[Cardboard Headgear]

Today I got Emperial Live Ceremony, Enslaved's Live Retaliation, Katatonia's Dance of December Souls, and Emperor's Prometheus The Discipline of blah blah blah. Emperial Live Ceremony is quite rad, Ihsahn looks like a complete psychopath. Finally got Prometheus, been looking for it forever (and it came with stickers, which are most definately going on my car). I'm pretty disappointed with the Enslaved dvd though, it just doesn't do much for me, not to mention the fact the crowd SUCKS. What, are you too tr00 to headbang? To yell? TO EVEN ****ING MOVE?!? Feck that crowd. Still, it does have As Fire Swept Clean The Earth in the seltist, so it's got that going for it. Haven't got to listen to Katatonia yet, but can't go wrong with a $7 cd.

Nice stuff you got today.

Also, what would you say are the best Enslaved albums to pick up?

I like Dead Can Dance, other stuff like Dreamtribe and late Ulver are also very good.

[CabbageStabbage]

I was at a party last night. I brought my computer, and I requested Nile - Execration Text. It was played after some crappy rap song. I heard the opening of it, I was all like YES!!!

So I went to the dance area, and started headbanging. Within 10 seconds, a random mosh pit occurs. It was awesome. Too bad all you could hear of the song was the drums and the growling.

I also played Pakanajuhla by Moonsorrow. No mosh pit there, but lots of people looking confused or headbanging.

I listen to quite a bit folk and electronica, and some industrial. I listen to plenty non-metal anyway, though.


I think it was stickied at one point

I can't remember it ever being stickied.

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

Also, what would you say are the best Enslaved albums to pick up?

All of them! They started off as aggressive viking/black metal with albums like...
Frost
Viking Ligr Veldi
Then they progressed ontowards more progressive music while still incorporating extreme metal in the music with albums like...
Mardraum
Below the Lights

Mardraum and Below the Lights are my too Enslaved favorites.


I also listen to alot of trip hop/Electronic stuff.

[Existence Is Lost]

the death metal bands i like are: Arch Enemy, Death, Cannibal Corpse, Napalm Death, Circle of Dead Children, Dark Tranquillity, Vomitory, Possessed, God Dethroned, Malevolent Creation, Cryptopsy, Obituary, Soilwork, and more that I don't feel like typing.

[RCA]

Did anyone see Macabre in Toronto the other night?

[manuscriptreplica]

I love Vomitory, to whoever suggested them. One of the few non-technical DM bands I can stomach

I listen to plenty of non-metal, but none of the genres you listed :confused:

[sensitiveorgan00]

Same here. I'm really more into jazz/fusion than electronica.

[SickSlap]

all death metal sounds exactly the same. the crowds at shows suck and no one in the band does anything, they just stand there and headbang

[Squirrel]

1. Wrong.

2. Every crowd, at every show, at every death metal bands gigs suck ? riiight, generalisation ++. ( and wrong )

3. Even if they did, it implies theyre enjoying the music and also, what the **** do you want them to do, have a tea party ?

[superpeer]

It was stickied for a few days when it got closed.

Headbanging is doing something. And the very first part of your statement is just wrong.

I remember when I first got into metal a few years ago met some black metallers and they actually were into electronica too.

I'm really more into jazz/fusion than electronica.

I've recently started listening to instrumental groups that have such influences. My latest discovery is Uthull. They dont play metal and dont have a guitarist (bass-drums-keyboard/piano) but I really like them. Do you know any instrumental jazz/fusion groups?

I love Vomitory, to whoever suggested them. One of the few non-technical DM bands I can stomach

someone else agrees too...

They are currently violently ripping off my skin and eating it while raping my dead family

:p

Although the stuff they play is quite common I find it VERY entertaining!
