any other death heads?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Spooky isn't Dargon. I exchange messages with him over at M-A, and he has sworn never to come here again, even to troll.

Dargon ain't coming back.
This man speaks the truth.

One another note, I picked up Obituary's Dead for a bargain $13 Australian! Great CD, except they only play the first 50 seconds of Chopped In Half :angry:

[RCA]

Sucks, Chopped In Half is a great song!

[Freezing Moon]

The only Obituary I have heard is Slowly We Rot. I like it a lot, what other albums are worth checking out?

I just spent a week at a guitar workshop, and I must say after hearing so many people playing the same Led Zeppelin rip-off riffs over and over, I'm very glad I'm a fan of metal. I did learn a lot, so the ever looping blues solos were worth enduring.

And I must say those last few pages were quite entertaining.

From what I've heard/read, Cause Of Death.

RCA: I know, it was the only song I knew before getting it too :(

[RCA]

Since you've already heard Slowly We Rot, I recommend you get Cause of Death. If you like that, then get The End Complete next. :thumb:

[Freezing Moon]

Alright, I'll check those out. Thanks.

Off topic question: Since lots of the stuff I listen to isn't tabbed out, I've been figuring more and more out by ear lately. When you guys want to learn an obscure song, do you figure it out or just not bother? I used to be really horrible at ear transcriptions.

I recently figured out the intro riff for Banquet in the Darkness, and I kind of like figuring riffs out on my own.

[RCA]

All by ear, but then I try to find an accurate tab to see if I was playing it correctly.

[Magicaltroll]

I hate figuring out Death Metal stuff...
Because alot of the time I have to tune down.

[Freezing Moon]

Yeah, that is a big problem. I sometimes figure something out, and then find out I'm a half of a step off the tuning or more and have to re-transcribe it.

99% of the time I don't bother.

Although once I did manage to figure out most of the riffs in Death Angel's Voracious Souls. :D

[Magicaltroll]

For the new competition, I'm gonna cover Bathory-A Fine Day To Die. Should be pretty cool what I come up with. Seeing how I now have a drum machine.

[Stoic]

morning guys :)

Hell, what happened in the past few pages? Some people should REALLY get a life.

Hey, did you listen to Jugular Carnage? :p

Also, what does everyone think of the vocals on Opeth's Morningrise? Specifically the growls..

[TheUnavoidable]

So..... good Gorgoroth songs? :p

[NJMetalMeister]

I just pose a question real quick before i head out. For the july metal competition, if i decide to do it, should i attempt to do "A problem yet to be solved" by Anata, because i found an excellent guitar tab for it.

Reason i use the word attempt is because programming the drums is going to be quite a bit more than a pain and a half due to all the fills and weird half changes.

[blackout]

Personally, i'd really like to hear your version of it. What are your other options?

[Stoic]

Hey, did you listen to Jugular Carnage? :p


At last I was able to download it earlier today but it seem that I dont have the appropriate software to open it. I'm currenty working on it...

EDIT

before looking for software I tried to open it with windows media and my PC crashed again. It also crashed yesterday when I downloaded the rar thing for the pig destroyer songs. I hate my PC, I hate my life :mad:

[Toozey]

Everyone stop posting in this thread.

[Stoic]

huh? :confused:

[Toozey]

What did I just say?

oh wait, my comprehension of english is twisted sometimes.
Is "everyone stop posting in this thread" imperative or an observation?

It's imperative.

Sorry about that :upset:

[ninjamonkey]

I just got back from Mexico. I was gone for a week if you didn't notice.

I saw the French bm talk and people didn't know that many bands. So, I remembered this thread from M-A. You'll find plenty http://www.metal-archives.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=11624&highlight=


MetalFan, For the internet radio stuff, check out www.snakenet.com

**** metal. kittie is one of the worst bands in the world. proving once again that girls cant play metal
You haven't heard Mythic. Or Garden of Shadows. Or Estuary.

Too true, bit of a novice I think.

Always came across as if he'd only been into this stuff for a year or so. I agree, there are fair better flamers here and much more knowledgable people.
b/c that's how long he had been into it. haha
Some consider melodeath to be more on the melodic side, and melodic death metal tends to be still quite melodic but with a bit more of obvious death metal influence. Esentially its the difference between like Dark Tranquillity and Arghoslent.
Truth.
good choices, especially quo vadis.

/wonders where is ninjamonkey when needed :p
Haha. I was in Mecixo, sorry. I'm too lazy to search and find my old melodeath lists right now, though.
Oh, yeah. The search isn't working properly at the moment, since the server switch. Won't bring up results older than the switch, I think.
Will that be fixed?
I've got this really weird thing that happens sometimes where everything feel in slow motion but I can move twice as fast.
Hey, I have somethign like that too, but I never thoguht of describing it that way. I just called it mind-racing or soemthing. It used to happen to me more in the past though.
:eek: This is the first time I've heard this by someone else. It has happened to me 4 times in the past but no one understands when I try to explain it. What the hell is it?! :confused:

EDIT

goodbye :(
What was the "goodbye" for?
Woohooo!!!! He's here at last! the next generation of metal drummers!

http://photobucket.com/albums/v720/Jondur/Sammy/

This is Sammy, he arrived at 11.48am on tuesday. I know we're all hardened metallers here but c'mon - admit he's cute!!!!
Congrats Jondur!
Mic. :)
What did you mic? I thoguht you said you went from effects straight to the computer.
What did you use for the drums?
Fixed.
Thrash belongs in this thread. It's the extreme metal thread. I don't even know why the thrash thread was started, besides to get more specifically into thrash, because everyone knows this thread is for all extreme metal.
On the other hand, it makes me feel elitist to know them. And like them. Warp Zone = a killer album

It's not elitist to simply know and/or like a band. Besides, MANY people know Martyr.
Indeed! Why are they changing their name all the time?!
They aren't. It's a different band.
Haha...Gorgoroth and 1349 are coming to sweden in december. The gig is like 100km away, but it would be ****ing worth it. :p
I thought one or two guys from Gorgoroth just got in jail. How are they giving concerts?
Spooky isn't Dargon. I exchange messages with him over at M-A, and he has sworn never to come here again, even to troll.

Dargon ain't coming back.
I forgot why he left. Care to refresh?
The only Obituary I have heard is Slowly We Rot. I like it a lot, what other albums are worth checking out?

I know that riff too. It's kind of awkward though, so care to share how you play it?
I don't really bother learning bands songs. I usually just make up my own stuff. However, if I ever REALLY want to know how to play soemthing, I'll look for a tab first. If I can't find it, I may try to figure ti out by ear, but the problem is that I never knwo what tuning a band uses, and that si essential. Eventually, I'll ask my guitar teacher to help me figure it out, but I've only done that a couple times.

Is my avatar distorted?

[Freezing Moon]

Which guitar workshop?National Guitar Workshop. It was in Seattle, pretty fun. I wish it were more Metal oriented though. :-\

But I'm also interested as to why Dargon isn't coming back.

Thanks a lot!

Haha. I was in Mecixo, sorry. I'm too lazy to search and find my old melodeath lists right now, though.

I had started to worry man, what were you doing in Mexico?. However, I was sure that you would appear at some point and make a huge post like this one after reading all the pages you missed (tr00est thing to do \m/respect\m/). In general I sense that this thread is kind of...dying so thank god (whom!?) you're back.

What was the "goodbye" for?

Actually, Dancin' Man said he would be away for a month (July) and I thought he would be leaving that day. However, it turned out that he'd just gone for a piano lesson :p

They aren't. It's a different band.

But the members are the same, arent they?

Is my avatar distorted?

I cant understand what it shows so I guess it is distorted

EDIT

Will you take part in the new contest?

[Deathcrush]

ninjamonkey, I assumed he meant mic input on the computer. I used Fruity Loops 3 for the drums.

[Arucard]

I really want Dargon back. On a ligher note, i bought Emperor : Emperor/Wrath Of The Tyrants. Although im not a fan of bad production, the album/s still kicks so much arse.

Which band and song is that?

[Dark Hero]

Anyone heard Dripping and Mortal Decay yet? I ****ing love them.

[Charlie Gaines]

Capharnaum
Lykathea Aflame
Anata
Arcturus
Commit Suicide
God Dethroned
Cryptopsy
Death
early Deicide
Necrophagist
Opeth
The Red Chord (they fuse genres, they aren't true death metal, but I still throw them in with the rest of these bands. If you are upset about this, you've got problems.)
Theory in Practice
Dissection (old) Maha Kali, Maha Kali

That'll do.

[Stoic]

nice taste :thumb:

[Arucard]

Yes. Shall i whore him some Beneath The Massacre?

[ninjamonkey]

I was in Mexico for my oldest brother's wedding. His wife is half mexican, so they wanted to get married there.

Haha, yeah, it took more than 2 hours to read through the 20 pages and make that post.

Yes, most of the members were the same, but I just wouldn't consider it a name change. I dunno why.

I'll re-load my avatar.

I might take part in the contest. Any song suggestions?
Intestine Baalism - Banquet in the Darkness (Intro/Main Riff)
*tab*
That should be a bit closer. Still distorted though.
Hmm, I play it quite differently. I think it's in B Standard tuning.
ninjamonkey, I assumed he meant mic input on the computer. I used Fruity Loops 3 for the drums.
Ah ok. So it was line-in but plugged into the mic-input.
Which samples did you use with Fruity Loops and how did you dl FL3?
Anyone heard Dripping and Mortal Decay yet? I ****ing love them.
Yeah, I've heard Mortal Decay.

[Stoic]

Yes. Shall i whore him some Beneath The Massacre?

:lol:
nah, dont waste your time, I doubt if he ever comes back. This thread would be half without such posts by newbies that never appear again...

[Charlie Gaines]

nice taste :thumb:

Thank you. :)

[Stoic]

Thank you. :)

:eek:


Shall i whore him some Beneath The Massacre?

go on!

[Freezing Moon]

Hmm, I play it quite differently. I think it's in B Standard tuning.

Very possibly. I also made a few small mistakes typing that out, but its close to how I play it.

It sounds right to me in E, but it probably isn't. I was in E when I figured it out though, and my guitar definitly doesn't want to drop all the way to B.

[Stoic]

I might take part in the contest. Any song suggestions?

If I wasnt worthless and could play the guitar properly I would do one of these since they have some particular riffs I adore:

Satyricon - Mother North (the slow part/second verse)
Moonspell - Alma Mater (the main riff)
Windir - A Warrior (the break in the middle)
Amorphis - Exile Of The Sons Of Uisliu (the first breakdown)
Dying Fetus - Institutions Of Deceit (the chorus)
Slough Feg - Professor's Theme (the intro)

[RCA]

I'm looking to try out My Dying Bride, any album recommendations?

[Shadows]

I've heard the Angel and the Dark River is hands down their best, but I'm not into Doom Metal at all.

[Stoic]

I've heard so too. Same with their latest one, off which I had the chance to listen to a couple of songs but didnt like them at all.

[RCA]

I'll check into those. :)

[Lord Abortion]

so yeah, congrats jondur, although you have a receeding hairline, the baby seems cool and could be listening to emperor before you know it...

in other news, I have been listening to alot of cryptopsy recently, none so vile has been a pretty constant accompniment to stuff on my computer.

[Stoic]

I wonder when and if I ever start liking Cryptopsy. The vocals still ruin it for me :(

[Reaper06]

those aren't that heavy
Pantera and Slayer are heavy as F###, cant say the same about that boyband linkin park :lol:

[Ad Absurdum]

I wonder when and if I ever start liking Cryptopsy. The vocals still ruin it for me :(

:confused:

Lord Worm's? Or DiSalvio's?

[Dancin' Man]

I'll have to rip South Facing Epitaph and let you hear it. It's ambient neo-classical avant-garde death metal. :confused: :thumb:

This a reminder to me to investigate. Or for you to investigate for me.

Anyway, here is a Corpus Mortale Upload and an Appallign Spawn Upload

Corpus Mortale - Mass Funeral Pyre (http://s51.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1FTCOP8I13T453GJWLSI43MGHI)
Appalling Spawn - Sublime Fury (http://s51.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2GAT9AG91EJB738P7O9I4XR4NT)

[Dark Hero]

Go here (http://www.macabremementos.net/japan/j_main.htm) if you are interested in hearing "Dripping."

[Lord Abortion]

:confused:

Lord Worm's? Or DiSalvio's?
Di Salvo is pretty poor in comparison

[Ad Absurdum]

Di Salvo is pretty poor in comparison

Yeah, I agree. DiSalvio wasn't that bad, but Lord Worm is just ****ing Godly. I was just a little surprised at MetalFan not liking the vocals; I've never heard anyone (who listens to death metal) complain about Lord Worm's vocals.

[Kreator2112]

yea who ever started this thread wasnt really a 'death head'. cannible corpse is a horrid example of a death band. i dont catogorize myself in any way but the bands i listen to are...
death
cryptopsy
deicide
aborted
nile
vital remains
necrophagist
cattle decapitation
decapitation
strapping young lad
malevolent creation

[Rothmans]

Pantera and Slayer are heavy as F###, cant say the same about that boyband linkin park :lol:

slayer actually arent heavy at all just really fast pantera arent exactly heavy either and this is for exreme metal.

[Kreator2112]

slayer is heavy thrash, pantera is power, opeth is progressive. in no way do i consider these to be any form of death

[Lord Abortion]

yea who ever started this thread wasnt really a 'death head'. cannible corpse is a horrid example of a death band. i dont catogorize myself in any way but the bands i listen to are...

bollocks, another person knocking CC. What a surprise. :rolleyes:

I would flame and tell him to get live cannibalism and a new set of ears but can't be bothered, sorry

[Kreator2112]

are you trying to compare cannible corpse with some of the creators of death metal? every band on my list is 203592502 times better than cc.

[Ad Absurdum]

Cannibal Corpse are a much better example of death metal than Death.

Edit - Cannibal Coprse are inferior though

[Kreator2112]

......


oh well you should have said that in the first place, of course older versions of subgenres of metal do not correctly represent the subgenre today, they are ever evolving

[Lord Abortion]

are you trying to compare cannible corpse with some of the creators of death metal? every band on my list is 203592502 times better than cc.
please distinguish between opinion and fact, and learn how to spell cannibal,

what is it you hate so much about them, gods to me as they are?

[RCA]

slayer actually arent heavy at all just really fast pantera arent exactly heavy either and this is for exreme metal.

Slayer is plenty heavy.

[Kreator2112]

first, i dont know how you can even say cannibal* corpse and names like death or possessed in the same sentence, let alone cc being better of the two. maybe you are just not a fan.

symbolic, human, sound of preservance. PeRiOd.

no... I really like death, but find some of the riffing a little weak
/picking stupid, minor faults here, I just love CC and all they do, I'll ask again, why do you not like them and what have you heard?

[NJMetalMeister]

Personally, i'd really like to hear your version of it. What are your other options?

other ones i was considering:
Edge of Sanity - Enigma
Emperor - I am the black wizards
Dissection - Nights blood

thats basically it for now, i may come up with more in the next 24 hours or so.

I think if my move back to the states somehow prohibits me finishing it, if i do choose to do the anata one, even if it doesnt get entered ill post it here.

[Dancin' Man]

I thought I'd mention I am not a big Lord Worm fan. His annunciation sucks and a lot of the time his voice doesn't seem like it fits. DiSalvio I'm not a big fan of either because I think he sounds like Peter from Vader but less bad. I think DiSalvo fits better than Worm. I also wish (speaking of Quebecois) that Gorguts would get a new singer.

Wow^ three awesome bands. I couldn't find the original post, what were you talking about?

[Dancin' Man]

[bassaholica2004]

I thought I'd mention I am not a big Lord Worm fan. His annunciation sucks and a lot of the time his voice doesn't seem like it fits.
Me neither. I like Cryptopsy a lot, but I think the vocals are the weakest part of the music for them. Worm just never clicked fully with me, I'm not sure why. Also, sometimes he gets off-beat with the music, and it gives me a headache lol.


I also wish (speaking of Quebecois) that Gorguts would get a new singer.
:eek: :eek: Gorguts wouldn't be the same with a new singer! He's one of the main reasons I like them so much!

[Huber]

Lord Worm is a huge turn off for me. He's really the reason I haven't really gotten into Cryptopsy yet.

[Charlie Gaines]

I think Worm did well on Blasphemy Made Flesh and None So Vile, and I also think that DiSalvo did well on Whisper Supremacy and And Then You'll Beg. But if you switched up the vocalists and put them on the opposite albums, I think it would sound like a horrible mess. With that, I like LordWorm for what he did with the first two, and I like DiSalvo for what he did with the last.

However, I really liked Lacroix's voice. :( Does he play in any other bands? Or did they just randomly pick him up?

[jimiandangus12]

Can someone recommend me some good viking metal bands, merci.

[Chu]

Some guys I have been hanging with recently have been telling me to get some (The) Haunted..
Well, what should I be expecting, and what are some good songs/albums?

[RCA]

The Haunted? Ick.

[Chu]

Not good?

Edit: These guys have been telling me The Haunted is so much better then the bands I currently listen to (Cryptopsy, Psycroptic, Rake Sodomy, Megadeth, Metallica, Dream Theater etc.). I don't really know the guys that well, but I figured they'd know more about music then me, so I'm just wondering are these guys any good?

[Txus]

Hey guys! i haven't seen much talking in here about amorphis in fact i haven't seen anybody talking about them IMO they are ****ing awesome i don't really know how to classify them really but i at least think they are death metal....but they are great what are everybody thought's about them?

[ninjamonkey]

Edit: These guys have been telling me The Haunted is so much better then the bands I currently listen to (Cryptopsy, Psycroptic, Rake Sodomy, Megadeth, Metallica, Dream Theater etc.). I don't really know the guys that well, but I figured they'd know more about music then me, so I'm just wondering are these guys any good?
The Haunted are just kinda shitty metalcore. At least i think so. Your friends don't know much.

[Chu]

The Haunted are just kinda shitty metalcore. At least i think so. Your friends don't know much.
Horrible then :(
I thought they were actually talking about a decent band...

[Apocalyptic Raids]

The Haunted... they are the band with ex-At The Gates members right?

[Blackhorizons]

Can someone recommend me some good viking metal bands, merci.
Bathory "blood fire death"...one of my favorites, I'm pretty sure that would be classified as viking metal.

[RCA]

Check out Enslaved too.

[Txus]

First two albums rule.
Indeed they did, my favorite album is Tales From the thousand lakes it's awesome but also their 3rd album is awesome IMO is called Elegy i really like it .

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Can someone recommend me some good viking metal bands, merci.


Ensiferum
Amon Amarth
Thyrfing
Windir
Equilibrium
Asmegin
Bathory (Blood Fire Death and onwards)
Borknagar (first two albums)
Falkenbach
Manegarm
Moonsorrow
Tyr
Wintersun

[Dancin' Man]

Amon Amarth, Equilibrium, Asmegin, Windir, Bathory, Borknagar, Enslaved and Tyr are all viking metal bands I love. Most of the others Bob listed I haven't heard of don't like (Wintersun, Eisiferum).

Amorphis = pretty good first few albums, relatively crappy later albums. I like the style of rock they play now but not the way they do it.

[br3ad_man]

Hey Dancin' Man, how do you deal with getting patterns in time with Fruity Loops? Is there some way to use snapping or something so it's all in time?

[Charlie Gaines]

Where/how can I download Fruity Loops?

[Stoic]

Yeah, I agree. DiSalvio wasn't that bad, but Lord Worm is just ****ing Godly. I was just a little

surprised at MetalFan not liking the vocals; I've never heard anyone (who listens to death metal) complain about

Lord Worm's vocals.

I dislike them both and as you see I'm not alone :p. In fact it took me a long time to get used to deeper and more brutal growling. I couldnt even listen to Nile.

pantera is power

how?

of course older versions of subgenres of metal do not correctly represent the subgenre today,

they are ever evolving

hell yeah. Whenever someone asks me to name a representative death band, I dont know what to say :(

first, i dont know how you can even say cannibal* corpse and names like death or possessed in the same sentence

I'm a huge death fan but really older doesnt neccessarily mean better.

think he sounds like Peter from Vader but less bad

replace less with even and there's my opinion.

Worm just never clicked fully with me, I'm not sure why. Also, sometimes he gets off-beat with the music, and it gives me a headache lol.

Lord Worm is a huge turn off for me. He's really the reason I haven't really gotten into Cryptopsy yet.

my thoughts exaclty

Amorphis = pretty good first few albums

:thumb:. Cool cover artworks too. Do you guys know whether their play songs off their first albums live?

[supra_speed]

Sinners Bleed and Beneath the Massacre are kinda close to Necrophagist (not that much though).

For brutal death and/or grind: you might also like Suffocation, Nile, Origin, Dying Fetus, Severed Savior

For melodic death: At the Gates, Carcass, Arsis, Quo Vadis, Depresy, Arghoslent, The Chasm

For technical non brutal death: Death, Atheist, Pestilence, Gory Blister

There's a lot of stuff out there actually. If you're not familiar with Death and Atheist I have uploaded some songs on the YSI thread.

Tell me I'm not too late to find out about "Paracoccidioidomicosisproctitissarcomucosis"

:p

[NJMetalMeister]

I will actually be doing "A Problem Yet to Be Solved" for the metal competition. It isnt nearly as tough as i had originally expected because while there are a lot of little fills and stuff, he uses the same ones over and over again so copy and paste is where its at. I was able to get the first minute programmed with little difficulty today.

Just hope ill have enough time to record the guitars bass and vox properly when i get back to the sates before the deadline.

[Dancin' Man]

Hey Dancin' Man, how do you deal with getting patterns in time with Fruity Loops? Is there some way to use snapping or something so it's all in time?

I do all the drum programming in the project (hit f5 while you're in there, you'll understand) and set up the full song. Then I save it as an mp3 and load it into audition and record the other parts.

[Rothmans]

how?
I never said that.

[Magicaltroll]

Slayer is plenty heavy.
Same with Pantera.
They've just got that heavy vibe going through in some of their songs.

I only like a few songs though really. And my favorite of theirs is "This Love".

[Dancin' Man]

Alright. Peace out for a month. I may log on a couple times. No new music for a month!

Same here. It's an awesome song. I have to say that Walk comes in a close second though. I just love the all around headbangy-ness of it. Forgive the lameass explaination; headbangy-ness.

[Stoic]

I never said that.

Sure you didnt man, my mistake, I'm sorry :)

[Arucard]

You guys get to hear me cover Blinded By Fear. w00t.

first, i dont know how you can even say cannibal* corpse and names like death or possessed in the same sentence, let alone cc being better of the two. maybe you are just not a fan.

You seem like you could be a decent user. Keep acting like this though (like no one else could possibly be right), and you'll just be banned.

The only one you need is Enslaved, they are far superior to just about every other band that attempts to do the viking thing

Edit: DarkHero: yeah wait until i post another band thread on tuesday, then you'll have a suggestion ;)

anyone wanna take bets as to the band? because you probably will not get it.

Very good grind. I remember attempting to download some stuff from them a few months ago but I failed to find anything. A bit odd. But I will try again.

[Rothmans]

I have never considerd slayer as a heavy band in ways they can be but they just play really fast for the lack of heavyness.

[TheUnavoidable]

I have never considerd slayer as a heavy band in ways they can be but they just play really fast for the lack of heavyness.

Reign In Blood is heavy.

For not being in the death metal genre, they are pretty heavy.

Well i'm not looking for "very" obscure grind. I'm just looking for "regular" obscure grind.

I find it somewhat hard to care; I was getting tired of waiting. I can't pretend I'm not slightly disappointed, all the same.

[ninjamonkey]

It's always disappointing, even if you knew a new album really wasn't going to come.

[Rothmans]

Crap I was really looking forwar to another album by them oh well..

They have some AWESOME songs, but the rest are eh...

[RiceMonster]

Slayer has never done it for me. They have a cool riff here and there, but they get boring fast.

[Rothmans]

Slayer to me are very repetitive some songs are good they have never been different which is kinda sad.

[James Van Halen]

Oh yeah, definately. Those three songs are awesome, but everything else just isn't really worth listening to. Plus they went to **** when King started writing the songs.

[RiceMonster]

King is a terrible guitarist. I'm not even going to elaborate on my hate for him.

[Shadows]

I was never able to enjoy Slayer even when they were 'good'. I have nothing against them, I just don't find their music appealing.

King is a terrible guitarist. I'm not even going to elaborate on my hate for him.

[Arucard]

Im sure he can play alot better than anyone in this thread, so i think we shouldnt diss.

[James Van Halen]

I wouldn't be too sure of yourself, there are a lot of incredible guitarists in this forum.

[LeperAffinity]

Regardless of how well he can play, he's still an awful guitarist. It's more than just how fast you can play, it's about what you can compose(All of the Slayer material written by Kerry is awful). And if you want to talk about speed and all that, look at his solos. All he does is slide and beat the **** out of his whammy bar. Then there's his actual personality, which I won't even get into because it could jsut go on and on...

Exactly. In fact I never really liked any of the so called big four of thrash. Alright, some megadeth maybe, mostly because of the solos but nothing more.

It's pretty annoying at live shows, when a band covers raining blood (how original!) and everyone goes crazy. Come on, big deal! Zzzz

But I think I've got something here for you. It's a bit different from typical sounding tech death. I can't really put my finger on it, but it has more of a Death (the band) influence on it.

I cant deny that there are knowledgable people in here. As for me I just picked a genre (tech death) and try to listen whatever fits under it. Just stick around for a while and you'll become familiar with many of the bands that you might not know.

I'm already familiar with Burning Inside, it will be hard to name a tech death group that at least I havent heard. However, I dont know this particular song so I guess it must be off the Eve of the Entities (havent heard it all). Upload appreciated \m/

Whichever one has "Reverie" in the title (Lost in Reverie, is it?) comes more highly recommended from what I've heard, I think.

As for the metal-archives alternative discussion, BNR seemed a popular alternative before MA gained favour. I've never checked it out that much myself, though. http://www.bnrmetal.com or something like that.

[LeperAffinity]

For Peccatum, avoid Amor Fati. I love their other two albums, but could never get into that one, not one song. An in more Peccatum news, their upcoming EP will feature a cover of Bathory's "For All Those Who Died". You can hear a preview and see a short clip of an upcoming song here:

I must say, I'm liking the new Scum song. Granted, Casey Chaos sounds a little out of place, but it somehow works.

[ninjamonkey]

you do? I dont use AIM and I didnt get a decent speed when I tried to download stuff from you on soulseek. I'm sure I'll get me the album in some way. Do you remember mentioning this band in here at all? Because if you did and didnt check it I suck (or maybe it was during the period I wouldnt bother with brutal stuff) :p
Hmm, I don't remember you trying to dl off of me. My username on slsk is ninjamonkey. And no, I don't think I mentioned them here before.
Well...I did skim through the last 10 or so pages since I was last online, but I don't remember what all I was going to reply to other than Jon's new arrival. Congrats man! Good luck!
Hmm, that is the reason I make my posts as I browse.

solefald - fraternité de la grand luminiere.

That was surprisingly strange and awesome piece of metal!

Holy Crap dude! That was awesome.

[the2stranger]

Again, thank you. I've been meaning to check them since February (seriously). By the way, why dont you put back your carrot avatar and write avant garden over it? Just a random stupid thought before I go to bed (2:00 am).

:lol: that made me chuckle, I might consider it.

That was surprisingly strange and awesome piece of metal!
their approach of Metal is one of the most unique I've heard in a while.
adding brass instruments? :eek:
making them play a solo worthy of being in a metal song? :eek:
just great.

I'll upload some more BM style Solefald in a bit

[NJMetalMeister]

yeah solefald is incredible, i had a solefald avatar for a while, but changed it once i got bored with it (the avatar that is, not the band, never will get bored of those guys)

[the2stranger]

they don't get boring indeed :p
didn't you have a usertitle with 'buy my sperm' too?
that song is so great, the vocal harmonies while singing the part 'buy my sperm' are amazing, as well as the entire songstructure.

[NJMetalMeister]

yes my user title was Buy My Sperm, which is a very cleverly written song

I'm so looking forward to the new album, whci will be released by the end of this summer.

Yeah I usually do that, but I could't be arsed to do that last night. It was late, I was tired.

Awesome! Why the hell didnt I check them earlier!? I must get an album of theirs right now.

In other news, there is an Alarum (7.5/10) and an Arsis (8/10) review in this month's greek metal hammer. They were a bit late obviously, but this is an encouraging thing since there is a possibility to find these albums in some local store. I didnt know Earache released these two in Europe.

Ah ok. I was wondering who MysticalBard was. haha

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Dancin' Man says he can't take Solefald serious because of that song...

Solefald is quite the group, and Cornelius and Lars has to be one of the best vocal duos in metal today. If Garm and Vortex was still in the same band, they would easily take the title of that though heh.

[Stoic]

I'm loving Solefald, I have heard these two songs at least 4 times in a row each. Any other upload would be appreciated since their albums on soulseek have been queued for the whole day. What other bands sound like them?

Also, has anyone heard the new Hate Eternal yet? I've read that it has better production and riffage than the previous one, which I found totally boring and forgettable, so I'm curious about it

[the2stranger]

hey, I added you on msn, cause you mentioned an album you were willing to share.
a band sounding similair to necrophagist and beneath the massacre.
but I haven't seen you online, so if you read this, please add me too :)

Thank you very much but it seems I was a bit late since you're not on at the moment. I'll keep an eye on your status, I hope I get a decent speed, which is (for me at least, an ex 56k user) >10k/s.

Are you talking about Domination Through Impurity? He must have known them for a while and I found out about them just yesterday out of random metal-archives research! I think, I've discovered a lot of interesting bands lately thanks to MX and my personal research :)

/jeez, I almost double posted by mistake and erased my second post immediately. The mods are very strict lately.

Yeah I heard the new Hate Eternal. It's definately an improvement from their previous albums. The riffs are more memorable and slightly more diverse.

[Bartender]

I don't particularly enjoy any of the older Hate Eternal I've heard, but what I've probably liked about them most is their riffs. So if they've improved them, that sounds promising.

/jeez, I almost double posted by mistake and erased my second post immediately. The mods are very strict lately.

I was worried this might happen; the mods (i.e. me) don't particularly care about consecutive posting in regular threads, provided it doesn't get ridiculous. Just in the community thread is it a problem.

[Toozey]

The new Hate Eternal is mint.

[Dried Muffin Remnants]

Hey guys... lately I've been listening to some of Isis (the early stuff) and I really enjoy it. The music is really sludgy, but in a good way and the vocals seem comparable to those of death metal...

So are these guys considered death or what (if not for the vocals)? They're definitely not brutal...because the music is not too heavy, and sometimes I think of them as ambient metal.. if there IS such a thing.

So what do you guys think of Isis? Not brutal enough? Not even death? Sorry, I'm not big into this genre, as I only listen to these guys, Meshuggah, and some more melodic death...

[Dark Hero]

The new Hate Eternal is mint.

Lol, I was just going to say that, the guitar solos are amazing.

[Bazarov]

Lol, I was just going to say that, the guitar solos are amazing.

I heard these guys for the first time on Sunday night. I was really impressed, the radio mentioned them having a new CD which I'm planning on going out and buying. Any CD recomendations?

I only heard Oceanic but it's really good. I don't think they are death metal, but I know some people who classify them as ambient sludge metal, which I agree with.

They were on metal sylum on fuse tonight.First time I'd ever heard them.It was pretty kickass.They seem like real cool guys too.I might pick up that I,Monarch cd soon,that song was awesome.

Anyway,has anyone heard the band Dark Lunacy?I'm sure people have as they aren't really unknown or anything but I never see many people talk about them.I've been listening to a ton of them lately and am really digging it.So far my favorite track of theirs is "My Dying Pathway" off of their new cd.Anyone else like them?

These comments are indeed encouraging. I'll look for some tracks on soulseek. Hrothgar, I've only heard King of All Kings and didnt like it at all. But this is only an opinion.

I was worried this might happen; the mods (i.e. me) don't particularly care about consecutive posting in regular threads, provided it doesn't get ridiculous. Just in the community thread is it a problem.

hmm, I see. It's fun when regulars are banned though :p

In other news, I was reading the comments on my current favourite new Nile song (The Burning Pits of the Duat) from the booklet and it seems that it took the guys weeks of practice. Karl Sanders even had problem (intense pain) with his wrist and was afraid that this song might end his career.

That's crazy.The only song I've heard off the new cd is 'Lashed to the Slave Stick' but I know these guys spend weeks,months,years writing and mastering this stuff(as well it should) so I don't doubt it at all.

I've heard a couple of tracks by them, thanks to Dancin' Man, and they were pretty good.

[NJMetalMeister]

Yeah i really like Dark Lunacy. They remind me of older dark tranquillity but with violins. A nice combination if you ask me.

I know although I had just heard half of their album before buying it. I Hope they release a second album sometime. They are supposed to have completed two new songs. Anyway, how's the cover going?
