any other death heads?

[bassaholica2004]

Since theres all the talk about Anaal Nathrakh, they said that they would play live if they ever found a drummer, and I was thinking that Frost might be able to pull it off. So far I think everything Anaal's done Frost can do, and I think he would add an interesting aspect to the music. Anyone else agree? Or have other ideas?

Umm... sorry for being a noob, but who's frost?

[Dancin' Man]

Drummer of Satyricon and 1349 (I think)

I'd say Hellhammer just cause he's God. Or Flo Mournier.

Hellhammer maybe, I'm not too sure. I wouldn't wanna see Flo in Anaal though, his style is too relaxed IMO. He has none of the aggression and emotion that I get from Frost's playing. He is extremely fast, it just always seems like he's sorta laid-back or something when he plays, I dunno. I'd just prefer Frost.

All of those drummers could probably do it. Maybe not Flo, which does not mean he is bad in any way. Frost is probably my favorite drummer. I love his work in 1349.

You have to atleast get some drums in there... it sounds boring without them.
but not too bad, it has potential :thumb:
Vocals were pretty good for an attempt also.
And one more thing.. i cant stand the guitar sound, its WAY to trebely, but i know some people like that stuff, so thats just my opinion.

[Dancin' Man]

I like trebly guitar but also know that there is no bass so that throws the mix way off. My vocals are tr00 and n3cr0 are they not?

[PIGS(1 different one)]

Downloading your song now fast fingers.

[Dancin' Man]

Heh, you'll love it.

Yeah, the vocals were pretty cool.
ok im deciding to put up a song from our first concert (by far the best recordings we've done... and thats sad).
So with this sendit thing, is it really easy? do yuo need account thingy?
eh, nevermind, ill figure it out, ill post the lyrics on here too.

EDIT, nevermind, what do you put for the recipents address?

umm EDIT... again thanks for that :thumb:

Here is a little melodic death/thrash/doom whatever riff I made up.

Download and tell me what you think. :evil:

[Dancin' Man]

How'd you do the drums???? Real drums?

I really like it. I really want a black metal band so I can make it a progressive one and join the ranks of Enslaved, Vintersorg and Borknagar. I'd call if Firebreather because that would be a hot name. I'd name my doom/sludge band Elephant because that would be an awesome name. I'd name my death metal band Guilt Eater cause that would be an awesome name.

[PIGS(1 different one)]

My band name, or one man band name is "The Manhattan Project"

I need to write more songs, I have like 30 stupid little riffs and ideas. Only 2 full songs.

[Magicaltroll]

This ones called "Ode Of Eulogy".
it takes abou 40 seconds to actually start because the other guitarist couldnt hear himself, and the guy talking in the beginning is the drummer.

http://s10.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1JGYBCUZL3UPV3P54DKI3EBXKJ

if you can, put the treble WAY up on your media player, because you cant hear anything if its bassy,

come on people! tell me what you think :D

like i said, if you can, turn down the bass, and turn up the treble. i wanna know what you guys think! :)

and the music part of it, not too bad :thumb: i liked your other riff a bit more though.

[PIGS(1 different one)]

I record onto a computer.

[Magicaltroll]

I record onto a computer.
we do that also (not on the song i put up though). but we get a ****ty sound.
Its probably my sound card, it sucks horribly.

[PIGS(1 different one)]

Here's a more metaly riff, I hate don't really like it though. Took me about 5 minutes to make.

^^That sounds pretty cool

[Dancin' Man]

I record onto a computer too. I direct line in through my amp. I use Adobe Audition as my editing program. I have a half decent soundcard but it flips out on me sometimes.

Pigs I really like these. Are those real drums?

[PIGS(1 different one)]

It's just samples, and I use fruity loops for sequencing.

Here is an Opeth cover of Advent, well a bit of it anyways, that I made back in June or July.

GuitarPro4, I used the drum and bass lines, and just played the guitar parts over top of it in Cool Edit Pro.

Another little thing, this was used in a Canadian TV show called JR Digs. I used to write for his show, untill it went of the air.

I think all of the clips I put up so far were used actually.

Don't worry, I don't really play that bad. :lol:

[Freezing Moon]

I record through a USB thing, then onto my computer. I don't know if I'm doing it right, but i get tons of white noise, making it sound either very bad, or very tr00.

I think I need to mess with the settings, because not only do I get lots of white noise, it picks up every single mistake I make. If I don't pick the note perfectly, it sounds really bad, yet sounds great when I plug into my amp. :(

It's not bad, even though I've just been fooling around with it. I guess you could try it, the samples are a lot better than the Guitar Pro 4 midi drums.

Audition has a noise remover. You first record a sample of what you want removed then, using the saved sample, the program will filter out noise. It's pretty awesome.

I'm gonna try it out, because im gonna put up one of my little "riffs" that i made up, more like a song... a really short one though.

Nick Barker, as people have said. They have Shane Embury handling bass as well, provisionally. Although, this is only for the performance on the Radio One Rock Show, which is coming up soon. They've previously been rather negative about the idea of touring...

[br3ad_man]

Thanks for all the black metal Bartender. I'm liking that really long Burzum song so far, but I haven't heard the vocals yet...

Loved the Mysterious track :p

EDIT: He sounds like a bat. A screeching one. He isn't scary, but he just sounds stupid imo. I liked the rest of it though.

Great idea.
Drummer of Satyricon and 1349 (I think)

I'd say Hellhammer just cause he's God. Or Flo Mournier.
Not to slag them, but for Hellhammer... well, Frost is one of the only BM drummers I've heard who can keep up such high speeds for so long. And Flo might make it too technical. Anaal should in no way be technical.
Me too; Internal Winter is probably one of my top 3 BM songs of all time.
I was just listening to that. How about the fast riff with the fast drumming in the middle-end? Brilliance. So cold... pure, evil ;)

/me is glad to not be the only one wanking 1349

Yeah I am actually. Are you?

Does anyone know of any (death metal) bands that write lyrics after they record the song?
Fields of Elysium often. :p
It's just samples, and I use fruity loops for sequencing.
How did you do the interesting background stuff? (In the one called neww)

Er, I don't have The Codex Necro, but on Total ****ing Necro they all sound about the same as Pandemonic. There is one song, Ice Blasting Storm Winds, with a keyboard part, but excluding that...

I'm starting to think they are being surrounded by too much hype. THey're really good and all but I'm afraid that people are placing too much faith in them as the saviours of black metal or something.

And who is Nick Barker?

[Corporal Compendia]

And who is Nick Barker?

Big fat bald guy... played in a bunch of ****ty bands. Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Borgir, Old Man's Child... probably more. He was in Lockup too though, so that's sort of a saving grace.

[craggyisland]

And who is Nick Barker?
He's in Brujeria, and used to be a member of both Dimmu Borgir and Cradle Of Filth. I think he also used to drum for Old Man's Child but I might be wrong on that.

Damn, Corporal beat me. :p

For a second there I thought you were trashing Old Man Gloom (singer of Isis' old band) who are killer. I also happen to like Dimmu.

Sounds like he has a big resume, but not a particularly intense one (hasn't heard Lockup or Breujila)

[Stoic]

Well the thread DOES spread like fire! What happened to Jondur's band? I saw a post from ninjamonkey about it somewhere.

I never knew he drummed for OMC and Dimmu...

[Vitriolic Rage]

Woah! did you play those drums? There was some sweet double bass going on if you did. I want to find a good program for programming drums.
No, I programmed them using Leafdrums.
I used Leafdrums, and used drum samples from www.hollowsun.com

The sound effects are just actually guitars and drums I put phaser or flange on, the one at the end was a harmonic I played, and I thought "Hey, that might sound cool like this"

I'll mix it again soon, it was only afterwards when I listened to it through headphones it doesn't sound too great with the bass that high.
Vocals will be on soon...spewing out evil, nihilistic, misanthropic things.

[RCA]

Does anyone have Dismember's "Live Blasphemies" DVD? If so, how was it?

I am listening to my track right now, I just did vocals. They are very Nocturno Culto Funeral Moon era. I like them, but I don't like the rythm or anything.

I am wondering whether I should leave it or not.

For the stuff at the end, I just messed around with effects, and played some sloppy guitar, then reversed the track and added TONS of reverb, then reversed it back. So it is actually preverb.

It took me a while because i kept starting from scratch because i was off time with about everything, im still off time in some parts.
I screwed up alot too, but i just wanted to get it done with and try to get some opinions off of here.
Im converting it to mp3 this time :thumb:
and you can actually hear it without having to **** with your sound settings or whatever. so i hope you like it :D
ill have the link up in a few minutes.

[Magicaltroll]

http://s5.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0G7P10N36IH611VJS3WKHMM1X7

i couldnt convert it to mp3... but its in .wav, and alot of media players play .wav, so it doesnt matter that much anyway, except for its a little bit bigger, but anyway
I think the intro is kind of like Cradle Of Filth- Gothic Romance, with the violin and stuff, but when it goes to after the intro thing, it gets really sloppy. sorry about that, but i had to do the drums on my keyboard, and it sucked...
but its my first recording that ive done like this, so keep that in mind :D
well ill stop talking about it...

Craggy, you are one of my top neighbors on audioscrobbler
What's your username on it? And is anyone else in here on Audioscrobbler?

[Cardboard Headgear]

I havent seen you for ages! Remember a while ago when you posted some pretty good lyrics and didnt mention where they were from?
Go back a few pages, the rest of them are there.

Anyone heard Vondur? Uber-rediculous band. I didn't even know who/what they were, or even what their name was when I bought their cd. But I just had to buy it, the only thing on the front and back cover is pictures of Darth Vader.

[Stoic]

Alright, I'll look for it. Life sucks without search button

EDIT:

So it's "Shipless Harbor" by your band! Do you have a site or something?

[superpeer]

What's your username on it? And is anyone else in here on Audioscrobbler?

I just signed up there. :)

[whatduffhuck7]

does anybody in this thread have soulseek? my sn for soulseek is whatduffhuck send me a message ill add you to my list. what are some of your guys sn's?

[Dancin' Man]

Audioscrobbler confuses the hell out of me. Thus, I refuse to use it.

[Magicaltroll]

What's your username on it? And is anyone else in here on Audioscrobbler?
Whats audioscrobbler?
like purevolume? :confused:

[Ve Das]

Way to go slick. And how old is that post? 2 years? Mutilator hasn't posted here in probably a year or more. I still talk to him quite a bit and he's not even listening to much death metal these days.

Was that one of the "nile-fan" posts I ripped into? :D

[craggyisland]

Whats audioscrobbler?
like purevolume? :confused:
It's a plugin which attaches to Winamp, or iTunes or whatever you use to play music on the PC. It logs the music you play, then matches your music to other bands, and people with similar musical tastes.

[Magicaltroll]

whoah, thats pretty cool, is it free?

[craggyisland]

Yeah.

Hey Superpeer, I downloaded those Aborted songs you posted links to. They're freaking awesome.

[Bartender]

And is anyone else in here on Audioscrobbler?

I am, but I signed up just yesterday, so there's nothing yet to see.

[br3ad_man]

Guys, help me out here. This guy I was talking to has no idea how metal can work with jazz. I listen to Athiest, Cynic, Ephel Duath and some other bands that mix jazz with metal, but if you guys could reccomend me some songs that best represent the fusion of jazz and metal, I would be very happy. It's just that I have stacks of songs and I'm not sure which ones to tell him.

[Cardboard Headgear]

Aghora - Immortal Bliss should do the trick.

[Rafflesia]

I'm more of a hardcore/metalcore fan.

I play in a band that plays that kind of a music,named RAFFLESIA.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

I'm more of a hardcore/metalcore fan.

I play in a band that plays that kind of a music,named RAFFLESIA, and here's a sample of what we do. This song is called "The lie of lies".

Why are you advertising it in an extreme metal thread then if it is "hardcore"/metalcore?



GROW A ****IN' BRAIN YOU DUMB SON OF A BITCH!

There is also no advertisment on these boards as well.

[opeth_oasis]

Aghora - Immortal Bliss should do the trick.

i'd agree with you there, thats a top song

[Rafflesia]

Ok, advertisement isn't allowed, so ****ing what. How do you expect beginning bands to make their name known if you can't even do a bit of advertising on a music forum.

And, if I'm not mistaken, calling each other names isn't allowed on a forum eather. Stomme lul daj zit.

[Deathcrush]

You can advertise them on an other forum and you can advertise them to PEOPLE WHO CARE ABOUT HARDCORE/METALCORE.

And calling eachother names on a forums is allowed, ****wit.

either*

[opeth_oasis]

yeah it wasnt exactly the best idea to advertise in a death metal thread

[br3ad_man]

Anyway, back to me...

:p

Thanks for the Agorha song, I'll check that out for sure.

EDIT: Sorry, but can someone gmail or yousendit to me? I can't find it :(

Not to mention that Rigor Mortis is thrash and not death metal anyways.

That Audioscrobbler thing sounds cool.

[NJMetalMeister]

Yeah i just signed up for audio scrobbler, i had something in the past that was similar, but cant remember what it was called, just remember that it was shut down.

[TheUnavoidable]

I doubt this is useful to many people, but just in case I posted it here. Anyone who wants to check out Atheist and hasn't yet, here's a link to Unquestionable Presence, zipped:

Great stuff.

I signed up for Audioscrobbler too!

EDIT:
When are the songs supposed to appear

[Dead_Trench]

Could someone tell me some good melodeath bands?

[Bartender]

Well, are you just a lazy bastard who couldn't be bothered to say "melodic death metal", or are you someone who refers to melodeath and melodic death as separate things?

MetalFan - have you downloaded a plug-in?

[Dead_Trench]

Pretty much the lazy part. Now tell me some good bands.

[Bartender]

Alright then.

Arghoslent
Carcass (on Heartwork)
The Chasm
Quo Vadis
Gandalf
At the Gates
Eucharist (apparently)
Hollenthon somewhat, I suppose, on Domus Mundi.

[Stoic]

NP: drowned in the mournful blood, there some certain riffs here that tear me apart.

Bartender: Yeah! It worked, I just needed to select the non library thing.

[Cardboard Headgear]

Thanks for the Agorha song, I'll check that out for sure.

EDIT: Sorry, but can someone gmail or yousendit to me? I can't find it :(
Probably because it's spelled Aghora.

[jcs497]

Hey, where did you all get your Arghoslent? (directed at whoever has any Arghoslent). I really want some, and it's nowhere to be found

[superpeer]

Hey Superpeer, I downloaded those Aborted songs you posted links to. They're freaking awesome.

Great, glad you liked them. :)

If you need some more, let me know. :)

[Magicaltroll]

Thanks! :thumb:

Great stuff.

Eh. I can't really get into that Athiest stuff... maybe it has to grow on me.
Oh yeah and i checked out Melechesh-Sphynx, and its is amazing, i love that cd :thumb:
Is their older stuff anything like the new cd?

Oh yeah and i signed up to that audioscrobbler too, its pretty cool.

[Bartender]

Hey, where did you all get your Arghoslent? (directed at whoever has any Arghoslent). I really want some, and it's nowhere to be found

At first I downloaded them using Soulseek, since I couldn't find them anywhere. Incorrigible Bigotry I bought from http://www.supernalmusic.com, later. I still only have two other albums in digital form though.

yea at first i didnt like atheist either, but after you listen, like sit down with a cd and just listen to there music, dont be at your comp[uter or driving just all you think about is the music and its great stuff, ull start liking it after about 15 mins

[Invicta_Veritas]

Ok,I've got a few questions.

I just picked up Nile-In Thier Darkened Shrines. Holy **** these guys are awesome. However, I was quite amazed at the extent of their research into egyptian history and mythology, and occasional references to sub-Judaism. Are these guys Egyptian or European themselves, or is Egyptian and eastern history/philosophy a pasttime of thiers that they incorporated into music?

Also, as a side question, what is DEP classified as exactly? I have Miss Machine, and I've heard they are mathcore and grindcore both, but niether term do I sufficiently understand. Can someone clarify?

[Bartender]

I think they're from Florida, or South Carolina. Definitely America anyway; Karl Sanders is just fascinated with Egyptian mythology, I think.

[manuscriptreplica]

Karl Sanders is just interested in Egyptian mythology I think

And DEP can be described as technical grind, or math core, or whatever the hell you like. Mathcore is just another name for very technical grind, Meshuggah have also been called math core or math metal

[Silenius]

Doesn't Karl have his own band?

[manuscriptreplica]

Yeah, I have the Saurian Meditation CD, it's like Nile without the death metal. I.e Egyptian ambience :cool:

[Bartender]

He's released a solo album. I don't think he's in another band per se, though.

EDIT: Yeah, what manuscript said.

[Invicta_Veritas]

Does he have any higher education, or is he just that eloquent?

[Silenius]

Cool because I've seen that album filed under Nile and I was curious what it's like. Egyptian Ambience, sounds cool.

[manuscriptreplica]

It's cool as, but can get pretty repetitive

[Magicaltroll]

[Silenius]

It's cool as, but can get pretty repetitive
Kinda like the ambient Burzum stuff?

[manuscriptreplica]

I don't know, I haven't heard Burzum. If you get on soulseek you might be able to download off me, head1psycho. If not I guess I could yousendit a song to you

[Silenius]

I don't know, I haven't heard Burzum. If you get on soulseek you might be able to download off me, head1psycho. If not I guess I could yousendit a song to you
I'll get on.

(me is high_voltage_acdc on slsk)

Dammit, error getting list.

Maybe you can get some Burzum from me though. :)

[Invicta_Veritas]

I take that as a no, or nobody knows.

Error list as well. Are you using soulseek 155? If so, soulseek is gay. I'll upload the Saurian Meditation album for you though

^I have no idea

Yeah I'm using 155. It's starting to piss me off. I couldn't browse Superpeer's files either. Thanks for uploading the album though, I'll give it a thorough listen tomorrow since I need to get of the computer right now.

[Invicta_Veritas]

I wasn't real fond of serious mythylogical death or black(or this Viking metal **** I've heard about), but I can really apreciate Nile. Somebody suggested Emporer to me today, anybody else got suggestions on death or black bands that aren't too internally involved in gimmicks or mysticism?

Lykathea aflame


123. Amazing band.

[Invicta_Veritas]

What are they like?

[Freezing Moon]

What are they like?


Extremely melodic death, but brutal at the same time. That's the best way I can think to describe it. Check them out for sure.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

What are they like?


Experimental death metal. Incredible band to say the very very very least.

I can upload some tracks if need be to show the greatness of this band.

[Invicta_Veritas]

na it's cool. Do they have like a website or anything?

[manuscriptreplica]

It's down at the moment, lykathe.com

But here's a song http://www.obscene.cz/mp3/038.mp3

[Bartender]

It's been down for ages, hasn't it?

[Invicta_Veritas]

That sucks. Anyway, Ill check em out next time I'm out and hit the music store.

[manuscriptreplica]

It's been down for ages, hasn't it?

It was always working but the page never had anything on it except for the logo. For a while it had some info about the new album, but now it doesn't even load :(

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

That sucks. Anyway, Ill check em out next time I'm out and hit the music store.


I doubt you will find it at a record store.

http://s31.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3CKP4XP0S6T6R1ZZIXQEDTY3DO

Lykathea Aflame song...

[Invicta_Veritas]

Cool.

I dunno, I've found some wierd sh*t at the record stores here. For some reason, they stock Dimmu Borgir by the dozens, and there were probably 15 or 16 copies of Nile's album when I bought it. What Label are they on, or are they self -produced?


My comp. is ****in up....it won't download anything

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

They are on Obscene Productions for a label, and they are from the Czech Republic.

They are far far more obscure then Dimmu Borgir and Nile in a record store. They are not obscure in the death metal community, but everywhere else they are fairly hard to find.

I also want to know what is up with them and making a new album. One album is not enough!

[Magicaltroll]

Experimental death metal. Incredible band to say the very very very least.

I can upload some tracks if need be to show the greatness of this band.
Please do :D
nevermind saw the song you put up...
Oh yeah, and Bobo, do you still want to trade albums because i would like some Metal stuff :D

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Yea, I still want to trade, just been busy lately.

Sorry if it has seemed like I have been ingoring ya, just started work and all, and my mind has been all over the place.

[Magicaltroll]

Yea, I still want to trade, just been busy lately.

Sorry if it has seemed like I have been ingoring ya, just started work and all, and my mind has been all over the place.
Its fine, i kinda figured you were busy so i didnt bother you too much.
Well if you know a time thats good for you, just let me know.

[Invicta_Veritas]

Dude, my two month old boy just fell asleep to Nile. How ****ed up is that?

[br3ad_man]

I just got that Aghora song (only took like an hour...) and geez it's good. Best Sean Malone thing I've heard so far.

[8XoXoclairebear8XoXo]

Is there ne girls that like death metal???

[Jondur]

Anyone heard Vondur? Uber-rediculous band. I didn't even know who/what they were, or even what their name was when I bought their cd. But I just had to buy it, the only thing on the front and back cover is pictures of Darth Vader.

Look at my username. That's where it's from. Absolutely ridiculous.

[Lord Abortion]

pit of zombies is in my list of Cannibal corpse songs to do in my band
"Captured by the priest of evil,
deep inside the hive..."
and I shall try and link you to an interesting article mentioning cannibal corpse later

[Lord Abortion]

O.K can't find it ...
but the gist was

vocalist of poppish band the beautiful south, (remember "perfect 10"?)paul heaton took a suggestion from their website that, for their new covers album they cover I cum blood so they downloaded it, and couldn't cover it... he said
"we listened to it again and again but the drums were inpenetreble and we couldn't do
it, and the lyrics were just filth... they are obviously a fantastic band but just not us"

I thought that was pretty cool that they would bother for a song that was obviously not their style the article was in ****ty psuedo- intelligent magazine word last month
just thought I'd share

[Tools of Skatan]

Haha thats awesome Abortion. Cannibal Corpse of all bands...

[br3ad_man]

I reviewed "The Painter's Palette" by Ephel Duath, if anyone cares

http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album.php?reviewid=1896

[Distorted Vision]

Good work br3ad_man. Did you read that thing I wrote on them for you in this thread a while back?

[Distorted Vision]

By the way, I've met Ephel Duath. They didn't speak much English though, so it was a lot of smiling and nodding.

[br3ad_man]

Yeah I did read it, thanks for that, it was good. It took me a while to find stuff by them, but obviously I'm very glad I did. That's so cool that you met them. You can post in the review if you want :p

[LordDargon]

Does he have any higher education, or is he just that eloquent?
I wouldn't say he's unusually "eloquent". However, given the abysmal, inconceivable stupidity you have manifested in some of your earlier posts, you may consider him as such.
I'm pretty sure he taught himself about the Egyptian stuff. You know, it's possible to do research on your own.

[Distorted Vision]

Yeah I did read it, thanks for that, it was good. It took me a while to find stuff by them, but obviously I'm very glad I did. That's so cool that you met them. You can post in the review if you want :p
Yeah, I met them when they supported the Dillinger Escape Plan. After they finished I couldn't be bothered to watch Poison The Well, and I went to buy an ED shirt. They were standing around at the back and I just went up to the bassist, trying to say 'You played great' and 'I'm a bassplayer myself'. He didn't understand a word, he just smiled and nodded and said 'Grazi, grazi'.

That was :cool:.

[Dancin' Man]

I want to see DEP. And Mastodon. And Tool. And Cryptopsy. And Opeth.

Why didn't you invite me to see that show?

[Lord Abortion]

"this song is about shooting blood outa you... I CUMMMMMM BLOOOOODDDD!"
man I can imagine them playing that

[LegionsofMarduk]

Dude, my two month old boy just fell asleep to Nile. How ****ed up is that?

My daughter headbangs and listens to music with me. She'll be 4 in May. Any my son is almost 4 months old and he quiets down if I turn the stereo on.

[Jondur]

Well there's hope for me yet! Cranks up Extreme Noise Terror ready for July!

Nah, I've never liked them. The riffs are just hard to listen to, dare I say ANNOYING? But yeah, if you like them, that's cool, I'm just sayin' they're boring as hell to me.

[ninjamonkey]

What's your username on it? And is anyone else in here on Audioscrobbler?
my username is Melodeath. I usually play my music in Windows Media Player though and my plugin is for Winamp. Oh well.

Probably it was Listen-to. I had that as well, but it no longer works. I htink they are tyring to bring it back though.
Is there ne girls that like death metal???
We've already been over this. Quit trying to be different.
Dude, my two month old boy just fell asleep to Nile. How ****ed up is that?
Not too messed up.
Could someone tell me some good melodeath bands?
If we had the search feature back (both at this forum and another forum i go to) I would compile all the melodic lists I've made.
For now, I'll keep it very short:
Intestine Baalism
Holymarsh
Nonexist
Autumn Leaves



NP: Nonexist - Deus Deceptor album (you all need this album)

[NJMetalMeister]

NP: Nonexist - Deus Deceptor album (you all need this album)

I have had that album for quite a long time, i have been a big fan of Johann Liiva and his vocal work despite how many people say otherwise in regard to arch enemy at least, and yes it is a top notch album.

[Griffin_Page]

I'm into Death and Morbid Angel and I've been told to listen to Obituary. Where should I start?

[Invicta_Veritas]

I wouldn't say he's unusually "eloquent". However, given the abysmal, inconceivable stupidity you have manifested in some of your earlier posts, you may consider him as such.
I'm pretty sure he taught himself about the Egyptian stuff. You know, it's possible to do research on your own.

It's not the everyday person that can form thoughts into that kind of language, you know. I wasn't saying he's a language god; that was kind of uncalled for.

By the way, I did go ahead and look into the band last night, and they are from S Carolina (Karl is anyway). However, I'm really curious as to who does the drumwork. Nile is described by the two guitars and bass (all of which do vocals), but there is no mention of a drummer. Any ideas?

[ninjamonkey]

www.metal-archives.com is your friend.

[superpeer]

He is certainly not a Language God, there are quite a few spelling mistakes in the 'In their Darkened Shrines' booklet.

Tony Laureano was the drummer on their last album, I believe. He left though.

NP : Probot - Sweet Dreams

[ICB]

NP: Kreator-Enemy of God

NP: Arcane Sun - Arcane Sun album

Nah, it isn't too gothenburg, the music fits the guy's voice perfectly. They remind me of a German Slayer.

[LordDargon]

Yeah, it is way too gothenburg actually. At first I was like "New Kreator, wow!" But now, the only songs I listen to are the title track and World Anarchy. The rest lack basically any thrash aggression.

Impossible Brutality and Dying Race Apocalypse are guilty pleasures for me though :upset:

[ICB]

Blasphemy! It's still good head-banging music.

[ninjamonkey]

Nah, it isn't too gothenburg, the music fits the guy's voice perfectly. They remind me of a German Slayer.
I disagree. I found the mix very awkward. I wanted the vocals to change, or the music to be thrash.

[Invicta_Veritas]

I said he wasn't a language god.

..and spelling mistakes in the booklet are irrelevant. Artists rarely complete the final revised copy of what goes in a cd booklet.

[ICB]

I disagree. I found the mix very awkward. I wanted the vocals to change, or the music to be thrash.

I don't know...his vocals just fit with the songs, to me. Impossible Brutality is a little bit thrashy.

[Invicta_Veritas]

Stupid question, but what is Gothenburg? Is it like german or norweigan metal?

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Stupid question, but what is Gothenburg? Is it like german or norweigan metal?


There is a city in Sweden named Gothenburg, and all those bands such as In Flames, Soilwork, Dark Tranquillity, Arch Enemy etc etc all have a similar sound and all come from that city/area.

[The Depressed]

Stupid question, but what is Gothenburg?

It's a city in Sweden, where the so called 'Gothenburg' sound originated from. It probably orginiated from Liverpool in England, where Carcass are from.

Woo! I might have found myself an extreme metal band - finally. They're a mix of brutality, melody, ambience and random time signatures. Early days yet, it might not happen, but the idea and the possible members are cool enough.

NP: Cynic - How Could I

EDIT: Dang, Bobo beat me too it :(

[Invicta_Veritas]

There is a city in Sweden named Gothenburg, and all those bands such as In Flames, Soilwork, Dark Tranquillity, Arch Enemy etc etc all have a similar sound and all come from that city/area.

So Gothenburg is a term that can be used accurately to describe those bands as a whole? And how do you separate the bands you just listed from any other death/brutaldeath/heavy thrash band?

[Bartender]

The same way your differentiate any other genre or music; they sound different. they share certain characteristics and lack others, etc.

[ICB]

There is a city in Sweden named Gothenburg, and all those bands such as In Flames, Soilwork, Dark Tranquillity, Arch Enemy etc etc all have a similar sound and all come from that city/area.

And that is where you get the definitive gothenburg sound that you hear today.

[Bartender]

EDIT: Dang, Bobo beat me too it :(

You're listening to Cynic, though, so you win.

[Invicta_Veritas]

I didn't really think arch enemy and in flames souned that much alike. Then again, Ive only heard a few AE songs, as opposed to my ownership of one IF cd.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

So Gothenburg is a term that can be used accurately to describe those bands as a whole? And how do you separate the bands you just listed from any other death/brutaldeath/heavy thrash band?


Gothenburg is pretty much just another name for those melodic death metal bands from that area. Such as In Flames when they hit the Gothenburg sound era with Colony and upwards.


I also own all In Flames albums, few Dark Tranquillity and a few Arch Enemy...

You can certainly tell the similaritys in their music if you listen to them.

Also, what In Flames album do you own?

[Invicta_Veritas]

Sorry I bug you guys with so many stupid questions, but some of the heavier death/brutal death/ black metal is starting to really interest me. For a long time, after a friend gave me Kataklysm, vehemence, dimmu borgir, and CoF, that's all I really knew of the general styles of music. Then I picked up in flames STYE and yesterday Nile ITDS and am getting really into that whole area of metal.

[ICB]

I didn't really think arch enemy and in flames souned that much alike. Then again, Ive only heard a few AE songs, as opposed to my ownership of one IF cd.

Let me guess...you've heard "ravenous" and "We Will Rise" and own either Soundtrack to Your Escape or Reroute to Remain?

I personally love STYE, but their other older stuff is far better and sound nothing like that album.

I wasn't too giddy about In Flames, but still, they're a great band.

[The Depressed]

You're listening to Cynic, though, so you win.

Of course. I'm going on a massive kick with these jazzy influenced extreme bands - Martyr, Meshuggah, Alarum, Cynic to name the main ones. Anyone suggesting anymore (apart from Atheist and Pestilence, already know those two) will be repped according to my enjoyment.

NP - Martyr - Deserted Waters

PS - When did this thread get so popular? We've had about 20 pages in the last few days alone! Keep it up!

[Invicta_Veritas]

Probably because of people like me asking a lot of stupid questions lol.

[The Depressed]

Oh my god. This thread didn't leave the first page for ages, and then I post and an hour later its down on the second page. So here is a shameless BUMP.

For some relevance - NP: Gorguts - The Art Of Sombre Ecstacy.

Gorguts are the best band from Canada. EVER. Yes, beating even Cryptopsy.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Recommend me a Gorguts album...now!

I have been meaning to check them out.

[ninjamonkey]

All (I haven't heard Considered Dead though)

That doesn't really help me...

Care to give me which you think is their overall best album?

[The Depressed]

Obscura. A masterpiece in metal. So atonal, so chaotic, yet highly melodic and meditative.

[whatduffhuck7]

[craggyisland]

Quo Vadis is a band I've been meaning to check out for a while. What's the best album of theirs to start with?

Day Into Night is my favorite out of the 2 albums I have...

But if you are a fan of Steve DiGiorgio, check out the album Defiant Imagination.

[Silenius]

Anybody here like Finntroll?

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Finntroll rules, well at least what I have heard of them so far.

I only have Midnattens Widunder, but its a cool album.

I just got Nattfodd, really cool stuff. I love how they have the folky/polka keyboard lines.

As some other people have pointed out, it's because of all these n00bs spamming it up. Hint to n00bs: If you don't have anything useful to post, don't post. The pit is made for spamming - go put your spam in it.

Ironic, though, considering this post will unfortunately have nothing extreme metal related in it, other than that with all the talk about Melechesh, I'm going to have to download As Jerusalem Burns from a certain source.

Is melodic death such as newer In Flames characteristic of gothenburg or is it the opposite, with In Flames graduating away from what is technically considered so?

Gothenburg = In Flames sound from Colony and up and such.

So yes, it is a characteristic of Gothenburg, at least melodic death such as In Flames as of late. Gothenburg tends to be alot softer/melodic then other melodic death bands from different areas.

NP: Seance - 13th Moon

[manuscriptreplica]

The Erosion of sanity is one of the best techmnical-death albums I own. It's brutal and fast as fu ck

[br3ad_man]

Nearly all the Gorguts albums rule, I've heard "Erosion of Sanity", "Obscura" and "Considered Dead" and they're awesome. I'd reccomend any of them. Probably "Obscura" if I had to say one.

[Jondur]

NP: Seance - 13th Moon

I've not heard any seance bar the "Levitised Spirit" demo [/kvlt] - Any good?

And here's some advertising! The River on the net: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/8/theriver.htm

This is a song that was recorded for a split 7" on COTD records , however its been delayed for so long that I thought I'd let some of you have a listen. Note the kvlt raw production due to a one take recording session! Everything done live in a dingy, damp room - just the way its supposed to be done!

[sickgoregrind]

Anyone else getting excited about the new Craft album this month?

[slave2thegrind]

I live in Yorktown Va. My friends are in an awesome death metal band called Hours of Freedom or HOF. They ****ing rock! You can check out their site at www.hoursoffreedom.cjb.net . They have 3 songs you can download but the audio quality kinda sucks. Check 'em out. Take notice of the guitar solo in Exagerated Dismemberment, it's awsome.

That's rubbish. Sorry. Very generic. Tell the vocalist to get his hands away from the mic - cupping is not tr00.
