any other death heads?

[RetiredAt21]

Ah, I see, thanks for clearing that up. I was wondering what trolling meant. I thought it was...acting like a troll.

[Ve Das]

Basically,that´s where the word came from ;)

[Dancin' Man]

hought it was trolling as in the style of fishing. At least I think it's a type of fishing. Maybe now.

In any case, I've decided I dislike the sound of really wet clean vocals and if harsh vocals are wet enough you can really tell, I don't like them either. This post, is useless. About as useless as the last page.

Toozey - Just because Isis have hardcore roots doesn't mean they can't change to be metal. Didn't the Red Chord use to be a grindcore band on the side of hardcore? I'll research that but I think so.

[Bartender]

What do you mean by wet vocals, exactly?

The Red Chord have always been metalcore.

And you can't serious, Isis hasn't got a "metal" thing going for them. They are dense, thats about the only link between themselves and metal. I just really think it's a stretch to describe them as metal.

[Dancin' Man]

I still think that is a dumb thing to say. They are just on another pole of metal. That's like saying a composer from the early part of the century not classical because it doesn't follow the conventions of boroque music. Subgenres. It's still closer to classical than jazz and Isis is still closer to metal than hardcore.

i know this isnt extreme metal by any means, but i know for a fact there are enough people in here who will be interested in this:

i picked up the new bruce dickenson album today "Tyranny of souls" and its amazing, i reccomend to any dickenson/maiden fans you go buy this immediately.

It's been in the "being recorded" stage for a couple of years now though, hasn't it?

Yes it has, and their site which used to be "under construction" is now an expired domain.

What is a good Morbid Angel CD? I have yet to really hear anything by them so give me the best.

note - last week was the first time I really gave Death a listen for the first time. Hot ****, I diggit.

[Mekkalayakay]

I've only got Formulas Fatal the the Flesh. It's good stuff. Most atmospheric death metal work I've ever heard.

[LeperAffinity]

I like Blessed Are the Sick for old stuff, and Gateways to Anihilation for newer MA. Secured Limitations has one of my favorite solos of all time.

[Freezing Moon]

For Morbid Angel, I like Altars of Madness, Formulas, and Blessed are the Sick.

I like that album a lot, but still prefer Arsis. SuidAkra though do seem able to go more places with their music than Arsis.

Yeah, their latest album features good use of bagpipes. :eek:

As for the Morbid Angel recommendation, go with Blessed Are The Sick or Domination.

Altars of Madness and/or Formulas Fatal to the Flesh. Covenant is also good, and that's all I have by them so far.

I've recently begun to explore more death metal, I can't say im a big fan, but I am a huge fan of metal in general. Regarding death metal I wouldnt know whether to classify Opeth as black or death metal, but i do love them and their melodic approach to things

So could someone please recommend some tracks which arent too extreme and have that beauty that Opeth has ( not necessarily acoustic )

[the2stranger]

I bought
behemoth - demigod.

is this any good for starters on behemoth?
I read through the boklet of the cd, and it referred to a lot of Egyptian mythology and all. I never knew they were influenced by that.

does it sound a bit like Nile?

Human is my second favorite Death album. Hoglan was GREAT on that album; those drums really took Chuck's music to a new level IMO.

NP: Running Wild - Draw The Line

[Vortigon]

^ I prefer Symbolic to be honest.

And on Morbid Angel, having heard all of them bar Heretic (I own B,C, F & G) Blessed Are The Sick is still my favourite. "Doomsday Celebration" just sums up the vibe I get from the album.

Where is a good place to start with Rotting Christ?

Also, what's the deal with Thus Defiled? I've heard they're good from people and terrible from others, what's the opinion hereabouts?

[Bartender]

Thus Defiled have some popularity around here, I think.


anyhow I ordered human by death just now... any good?

I can't tell you how it measures up to ITP, but it's a very good album. It's also (so far) my second favourite Death album, but behind Scream Bloody Gore.

Farmakon - Loosely of Amoebas (http://s20.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3NPT740HU9M6B0CJKCZ33EAWV6)

[manuscriptreplica]

ITP and Human are two completely different albums, you couldn't even tell they were both Death if you didn't know, Chuck's even changed his vocal style.

There's a song on soundclick.com called 'Astaroth' by Thus Defiled which slays an incredible amount of as s, i highly recommend getting it.

[i am the robots]

Farmakon are Finnish? I always thought they were Russian... hmmm, either way, they are amazing, they remind me a lot of Opeth... but more Jazzy.

[Mekkalayakay]

Just picked up Annihilation of the Wicked. It's not a masterpiece, but I still think it's really good.

[Cardboard Headgear]

Human is my second favorite Death album. Hoglan was GREAT on that album; those drums really took Chuck's music to a new level IMO.

NP: Running Wild - Draw The Line

Hoglan was on the two albums after Human (Individual Thought Patterns and Symbolic), he isn't on Human. That's Sean Reinert of Cynic for that ablum, and personally I find the drums overplayed, but not in a good way. Hoglan and Christy go nuts on the Death albums they're on, but it fits, Reinert's just doesn't do anything for me on Human. It just seems too clinical. Oh,and PIRATE METAL YAR

I didn't like the new one as much as Goremageddon. It was good, don't get me wrong; I just didn't like it as much.

[HappyMarshmellow]

The new Aborted album is actually pretty good! There's tons of hooks, swings, catches, it grabs in many different ways.

Grind and all its subgenres including Gore are pretty dry because every band sounds like every other band. It's boring as hell, I'd rather slam my nuts in the microwave oven door.

But this time around Aborted is more fun to listen to than a chore.

[LeperAffinity]

Yea, the new album goes for a slightly less brutal sound that the others, but it's still a really good listen. I wasn't the biggest fan of it at first, but the songs carry over really well live.

[Dancin' Man]

Aborted have done a great job making goregrind listenable and enjoyable. Must be the waffles.

[RCA]

I think the main reason Aborted are so listenable for a goregrind band is that they have heaps of death metal influence in their music, much like ****...I'm Dead.

Yeah, Aborted is **** good. There's really nothing grind about their sound, just death metal. The solos are very melodic and well written. Their new record actually has some melodic parts to the songs.

ENTHRONED - "Eternal Years on the Path to the Cemetary Gates"
AURA NOIR - t.b.c.

FUNERAL PROCESSION - "A Perfect Vision of the Rising Northland"

I think it should be intresting, although I haven't heard some of these bands before.

Enthroned would do a great job, I'm sure. They are a lot like Immortal and they're also superb.

I am not going to even start, you are a fool and that is it, there is no need to argue when I can throw an insult and not waste my time.

In other words, get the **** out and never come back you ignorant ****.

[Harrow]

OK OK!!! you ARE cool enough to play dungeons and dragons, and I am very afraid of your level 38 wizard with lightning bolt!!!

[the2stranger]

If you want to bitch about DM and BM, ok, make a thread about it, and get some good arguments to defend your statement.
but don't come in a thread dedicated to D E AT H M E T A L
and bitch about it.

and just for your information, Detah metal ( not talking about BM!!)
is one of the most sophisticated genres of music.

in order I think:

1) classical
2) jazz
3)progressive rock/metal
4) death metal.

death metal is influenced by classical music on many aspects, and a lot of death metal musicians have great knowledge about music ( in general) and a lot of them have studied Music

[superpeer]

He probably only knows Six Feet under and Cannibal Corpse anyway.

[the2stranger]

^^^ :lol:

anyways, I bought Demigod by behemoth a few days ago.
I think it's really good, I really like the way the vocals are dubblemixed and all the effects used.
although I wonder how the vocals will sound live, I assume it will sound empty?

I might go to see them this summer :cool:

[LeperAffinity]

Am I the only one that noticed the dm-hater was promoting Arsis, a band with obvious black and death influences? As for the Behemoth question, I've ehard that all 3 of them do vocals, so it still has that layered effect.

Yes! Awesome album.

This is very late but.... Which Deathspell Omega lbum should I get to introduce myself to them? Tell me which is the best album and, if you have figured out my general tastes by now, which I would most enjoy (which will probably be their "worst" album but whatever)

Limbonic Art are awesome. By that I mean one of the best symphonic black metal bands I have ever heard.

[Hammerheart]

Kenose is better IMO, but it's just an EP.

[ninjamonkey]

Whoever the original poster is, I am appaled that you listed Isis as death metal, please don't lump talented artists in with this mass of crap, god I freaken hate death metal. But heres something I'm sure you nerds can appreciate www.worshipdepraved.com check out Arsis, they are Extreme Metal. In the famous words of crotchduster, "black metal and death metal are for nerds that aren't even cool enough to play dungeons and dragons"
You hate death metal? You like Arsis? Are you so dumb that you don't know that Arsis IS death metal. Get the **** out, fag.
OK OK!!! you ARE cool enough to play dungeons and dragons, and I am very afraid of your level 38 wizard with lightning bolt!!!
You seem to have death metal confused with some other genre where the kids play dungeons and dragons.
Am I the only one that noticed the dm-hater was promoting Arsis, a band with obvious black and death influences?
No, that was the first thing I noticed. I was actually confused for a second b/c it didn't make any sense.

[Magicaltroll]

Are there any bands that sound like the newer Nile, or Behemoth.
Because I really like those bands. I've been pretty into Death metal stuff lately. But I also like it to be pretty melodic.

[AblazeMySorrow]

anyoen like On Broken Wings?

[Rothmans]

Hey lads I got out today and I bought decapitated - The negation (awesome) and I also bought entombed - wolverine blues and I was just wondering if entombed - wolverine blues was any good?

(I also got mike patton vs. the excutioners)

[Stoic]

I've been exposed to some very high quality metal lately including the NILE, COMMUNIC and especially ORIGIN.

Informis Infinitas Inhumanitas literally slays, one of the best death albums I've heard. Basically, I like almost every band that refers to Chuck Schuldiner as an influence but this is another story. Well, I cant see why people compare them to groups like Hate Eternal which absolutely bore me to death.

Any other simiral technical death/grind suggestions (except for the standards of course)?

...and please someone UPLOAD ENSLAVED - Vetrarnott

NP Death - Nothing Is Everything

I havnt got around to properly listen to it but I am gonna start it up now in a min but I was just wondering for some general opinions about the band.

[Dancin' Man]

Woah.... I just downloaded a Corpus Mortale album. It is amazing.

I'll uplaod a song or two. Really great stuff. This band may actually work for whoever wanted music similar to Behemoth and Nile. It's a bit heavier but still has quite a bit of melody and the solos are more shredtastic.

[superpeer]

The more you say that, the more I think you're easily impressed.

[Dancin' Man]

^me or Rothmans? Corpus Mortale truly are an excellent band. Better than Iniquity (who they share members with)

[LegionsofMarduk]

I just got back from vacation so I haven't read the last however many pages. I'll get around to it sometime. I'm at the in-laws house for the weekend anyway so I probably won't get a chance to really read it all until I go back to work on Tuesday anyway.

On a somewhat music related note...We went to Disneyworld for our vacation. While at the World Showcase at Epcot, I talked to some people from France and Norway. The girl I talked to from France wasn't into metal so she hadn't heard of any of the LLN bands. But a few people I talked to from Norway had heard of quite a few bands. One guy was actually into black metal! I talked to him for a while about Burzum, Mayhem and a few other Norwegian bands.

[Dancin' Man]

You, of course.

[Dancin' Man]

^heh, slow internet sucks. I remember those days. an hour for one song only to find out it was corrupted or mislabeled or just plain sucked.

Anyway, I'd love to jam live with a band like Agalloch. There is so much room in that kind of music for improv. They just have such a groove feel to them while still being really atmospheric and chilled out. I could see myself listening to this band while high.


Superpeer - Psh.... it's a great band. I am fairly easily impressed but I can still hear when a band is good or not and this is one that is.

[superpeer]

By the way, can someone upload the Iniquity song that was used for the Growl Karaoke? :)

[manuscriptreplica]

Can anyone tell me about Theory In Practice?

They are awesome and you should download 'Colonising the Sun' right away

[Bartender]

Similar bands is a hard one, I think. They don't really sound unique enough to honestly say that they're unique (i.e. it's still very much a technical-/melodic-death record - the only part approaching genuine uniqueness is the keys), but at the same time they don't really sound like any other bands, or at least any that I can call to mind right now. They're an excellent band though, death metal with lots of technicality and melody. The most common complaint I read about them is that they have raspy vocals, and they don't bother me, really. Here's a couple of tracks from Colonising the Sun;

Theory in Practice - Colonising the Sun (http://s8.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3MYOJOY66Z3PE3IO42L5JPM2E8)

Those were great, thanks Bartender. I like the vocals, a bit like Mastodon but not as good.

[LeperAffinity]

Just curious DM, which Corpus Mortale album did you get? The only one I've got so far is "With Lewd Demeanor", and I've been blasting it since I heard it.

Theory in Practice is one of my favorite technical death metal bands. Yes, the vocals are a little different, but the music more than makes up for it. They aren't necessarily brutal like Necrophagist or Origin, but the riffs are great. You should check out "The Armageddon Theories" as well, especially the five-track epic. Great stuff.

[slaytalica25]

decrepit birth... they kick so much ***. check em out.

[Dancin' Man]

I got With Lewd Demeanor. It is great, is it not? I have yet to check out Theory in Practice. Maybe tomorrow.

[Stoic]

I dont like the vocals on Theory in Practice but musically the slay. The only similar (not that much though) group I've found so far is Terminal Function (again I dislike the vocals). It's a demo group actually www.terminalfunction.tk

As for Iniquity it's not exactly what I'm looking for and I cant say I was impressed (= didnt get my mouth on the floor like origin did) but certainly an interesting groovy listen.

I'll be off for 4th week :upset:

NP Origin - Perversion of Hate (since I got the album a week ago I must have listened to it at least 20 times)

[Cardboard Headgear]

I dont like the vocals on Theory in Practice but musically the slay. My thoughts exactly, the vocals are just weak sounding.

[ForiegnPenguin]

How is Hate Eternal?

[Bartender]

They're okay for a few tracks at a time. They get boring quickly, though.

[ForiegnPenguin]

Oh, well would you say that I, Monarch is worth buying?

[Bartender]

That'd be the new one, yeah? Sorry, can't help you. I've not heard it.

[Dancin' Man]

I've wondered about Martyr lately. Are they worth investigating?

[ForiegnPenguin]

Oh, thanks anyway.

For those looking for similar bands to Theory in Practice, I have read that Mutant are similar. However, I am yet to hear them.

[funk_metalguitarist]

I've wondered about Martyr lately. Are they worth investigating?

If you're talking about technical melodic DM band from Canada then yes, they are definately worth investigating. If you're into bands like Quo Vadis, Arsis etc then you will like em.

[br3ad_man]

Does anyone in here like Converge? I know they really don't fit in here, but I was just wondering.

[the2stranger]

hey

In my band we're covering satyricon - mother north.
too bad it's the only song I have heard by them, and I asked my guitarist what cd I should check out.
and he told me: none, cause mother north was their only decent song in his opinion.

is this true, should I stay away from the band, or are they worth checking out?

ps: I'm looking for them ore atmospheric black metal, not poorly produced tr00 BM :p
so if the rest is tr00 I won't like it I think

[Vortigon]

The Shadowthrone and Nemesis Divina are my favourite Satyricon albums.

[LeperAffinity]

Definitely Nemesis Divina. Du Som Hater Gud is my favorite on that album, even more so than Mother North.

[Dancin' Man]

If you're talking about technical melodic DM band from Canada then yes, they are definately worth investigating. If you're into bands like Quo Vadis, Arsis etc then you will like em.

Thank you, I will check them out now.

Converge?

I realy like them. Sometimes they get a bit tedious but from song to song I really like them. And you are right, they belong inthe Hardcore forum. Does that still exist?

[Bartender]

Yes, it does. I think he knows they belong there, and was just wondering.

For myself, I haven't actually heard them. Heard plenty about them, but that's about it.

[TTTSNB]

They are good.

For those looking for similar bands to Theory in Practice, I have read that Mutant are similar. However, I am yet to hear them.
Could you send me some of thier stuff? Their site is down, so I can't listen to them. AIM is Deliverance2345.

[Shadows]

Definitely Nemesis Divina. Du Som Hater Gud is my favorite on that album, even more so than Mother North.
Thou liketh any song more than Mother North? Blasphemy! I've been looking for some of their other stuff besides Nemesis Devina, which I love...is Shadowthrone any good?

[superpeer]

My favourite Satyricon song is Woods to Eternity of Shadowthrone, don't know if the album is good though.

[RCA]

Shadowthrone is good. Since you like Satyricon, you'll like it.

That's a pretty cool idea. We should participate - and I'd personally like to participate as well. either with mixing or actual instruments/programming/vocals.

or if someone does the programming they coudl send me the midi files cause I can get sampled drums sounding pretty real.

[Freezing Moon]

That sounds like a good idea, it should be pretty cool.

Choosing a song may be hard though, haha.

[Dancin' Man]

I could probably program the drums, assuming we don't have a drummer here good enough to play the parts. Plus, I can do the drums in .wav which I think sounds much better than midi.

We'd have to choose a genre first and then a song.

I wasn't saying I was going to do them midi. But you program them in midi and you use that to get real drum sounds.

I can do some guitar tracks depending on the song. Or I can mix the whole thing with my professional recording software.

I'm home from the Maryland Death Fest. A totally rad fest it was.

Other wicked bands include:
Ghoul, Regurgitate, General Surgery, Bodies Lay Broken, Rotten Sound, Gronibard, Warscars, Abscess, Screaming Afterbirth, Amoebic Dysentery.
There were many awesome bands to be seen.
Biggest disappointments were Leng Tch'e and Pig Destroyer.
Leng Tch'e, because they have a new singer and he's TERRIBLE! It's just not the same.
Pig Destroyer's sound was just bad... made for a boring set.
Bands that just sucked, generally because they suck anyways: Aborted, Despised Icon, Prophecy, Ion Dissonance.

Nuclear Death - Bride of Insect/Carrion For Worm
Lykathea Aflame - Elvenefris

Out of interest, how much did all that set you back? Just because you seem to buy quite a lot, so I'm just wondering if you're incredibly wealthy, or whether you just go for cheap things over expensive. Or you know, a thief or something.

Gronibard are tough to describe. They're grindcore, but they're not a serious band at all... a lot of funny/stupid things in their music. Check out their self titled album.
But if you want something a little more serious, check out the Warscars MCD. It is 4 members of Gronibard, but they're not doing the goofy/gay stuff. Awesome music.

I thought it was England. I don't know of any good English metal distros, but it can't be much to order from other European distros can it?

I don't know of any really good European ones either. Supernal is based in England and is good, though mostly for black metal. Other than that what I buy is usually just whatever I find in stores.

Do you get those Century Media distro booklet things with Century Media cds in England?

Hell, order from The States or Canada then. There's plenty of awesome Distros/Labels in North America. Shipping will cost you a wee bit more, but it's worth it!

I'll be going to America for a while over summer, so I'm actually looking around for USA/Canada based distros to check the possibility of having things shipped to me while I'm there.

high_voltage - I don't know. I don't recall one particularly. Maybe I just ignore them.

www.redstream.org is a good start.

Is Engineering The Dead as good as Goremageddon - The Saw And The Carnage Done from Aborted?

Because if it is, I'm gonna have to buy it.
