^yay :D

br3ad man and slapping penguin, do you consider yourselves knowledgable enough on the christianity matter? If so please add me to your MSN. I have a few questions but keep in mind I'm viewing christianity strictly from a philosophical point.

[Magicaltroll]

No, I wasnt talking to you. Thats why I said, "general 'you'" b/c i meant everyone, not YOU.

As a side note, there is no proof that the biblical Jesus of Nazareth existed. In fact, there is quite a bit of proof that he is just a fabrication of the church.

I'll be gone for 3 days. Going on vacation.
What "proof" do you have?
Just wondering. I'm not being a dick or anything :p

And I just wanna share that I am a Christian. I'm a noob though, because before I went to a camp (3 weeks ago), I was an Atheist you could say. It really opened my eyes, and showed me something was out there.

What do you mean overdo it?

[Stoic]

What do you mean overdo it?

being either fatalists (believe everything is god's will and do nothing to change their lives) or being dogmatist (take everything for granted and deny hearing other views).

[Arrakakaka]

Mmm but its scary because those BAD christains (as the majority are good.... mabye not in America well from what I have seen) if put in the same postion as say the Iraqi Muslism fundamentlist would they kill innocent people and blow themselves up? My I think all christains should be like my mum!
The bad ones would be the extreme conservative ones right?

NP - Iniquity - "The Bullet's Breath"

[Arrakakaka]

'Reroute To Remain' and 'Soundtrack To Your Escape' is just heavy metal or something else. 'Whoracle' and 'Colony' are melodic-death metal.

[Lefty]

Seer's Tear are perhaps even more esoteric, they started off as a doom band (MDB guitarist Hamish Glencross was in them and vocalist Stoy was in Solstice for a time) and the demos reflect this but "Precious", their only album, is very much more progressive. I'll admit to being a bit of an obsessive fan - "Precious" is probably my fabourite album by a UK artist! And yes I'm including Sabbath, Maiden etc etc! Not bad for a relatively unkown band who released one album on an obscure label!

Sorry for bringing up such an old post, but I'm rarely on here. Can't hold the pace of this thread! Do you know of any distro's who has Seer's Tear in stock?

I disagree entirely.

Much the same way as I hate vegitarianism, but respect vegans ultimately more than 'vegitarians', I think that if you are to follow Christianity, then follow ****ing Christianity.

Idiots who label themselves Christian, then complain about the 'strict rules' of the religion are worthless.

eg, "I'm a Christian, but I love to listen to Christ-Raping Black Metal, and I have pre-marital sex and get drunk every weekend. I break the majority of the Ten Commands, but hey, I'm Christian, so God forgives me!"

Doesn't mean to say that genuine Christians aren't worthless either, mind you.

people should indeed take thier religion serious, and if they don't want to, there is little reason to hold on to the religion indeed.

but that are some people how miss-interpret the religion ( tha's what I meant by over-doing it) or who do not, but I dislike the way they follow their religion because it is too far away from my own ideals believes and values.

I wonder why I even took part in the religion discussion of the last few pages cause I don't feel like talking about it right now :p


so anyone up for some good metal?

Good points but as the real ideology of Christianity has become distorted through time it's more than likely that those who are ultra-orthodox may well be following the wrong path.

I'm a vegetarian by the way. I can probably live without your respect.

[Deathcrush]

I'm a vegetarian by the way. I can probably live without your respect.

:lol: I'm friends with alot of vegetarians. I'm basically vegitarian, but not for any moral reasons. I just feel quite sick knowing that I'm chewing on "burnt bird carcass" (as I said at the dinner table last Christmas).

I meant the vegitarians who go by the whole "I am vegitarian, therefore a better, more caring and morally correct person than you".

Also, for many vegitarians, it's all about sympathy for the animals used for human consumption. Yet, they will still drink milk/eat cheese etc. despite the fact that the animals used for dairy products etc. are forced into a much more horrible life than the ones used for meat.

Obviously this doesn't apply to all vegitarians, me nearly being one myself, but you should catch my drift.

But I don't think music really has MUCH to do with your faith in God...
As long as you don't take the music personally. I mean, I know it's not really good to do (listen to the music I do), but I'm trying to somewhat tone down my music taste to non-"anti-christian" music, but in metal, that's kinda hard :p

I'm still working on my "christian walk" as most people call it around here. Alot of habits are hard to break. Like cursing, and lust and stuff like that. But I'm progressing :thumb:

Yeah, the same thing happened to me. I got out of that crap as quick as I could.

I once scared away a jehova's witness that came to my door. I happened to be wearing all black that day (black slayer shirt, black jeans, my hair being black) and when I saw them coming I quickly popped an alkaseltzer in my mouth, rolled my eyes back and opened the door saying, "SATAN WANTS YOUR SOUL :evil:. " :lol: :lol: :lol:

They heard what I said and saw the alkaseltzer causing my mouth to foam and they got the f**k out of there in a hurry.

Get over your self, seriously. It is quite disguisting to see some one think so highly of their opinions that they think they are they are right and every one else is wrong.

Grow the **** up and show some maturity when it comes to opinions.

NP - Behemoth - Horns Ov Baphomet

You are flawed, since you are your own enemy. Your opinion is that there is no right or wrong music choice, yet you see that to see that this "opinion" right or wrong. Well, that's contradictory! By the way - nobody could give a flying fukc what you're listening to right now!

Health permitting, I should be seeing this band live in a week or so :).

I didn't like Stevie anyway, that avatar is just plain stupid. Christianity preaches acceptance, whether you believe that Jesus died for peoples sins or not (or whether he even existed or not) it is stupid for him to put a picture of Jesus on the cross with laughter and even more ironic because it seems that him (along with most people in this thread) seem to preach acceptance which is what Jesus represents in the bible.

Scum. Without a doubt.

From Enslavement, allthough good, gives off a whiff of "Try to hard". It tries to hard to be like Scum, and it doesn't work. Get both though, they're both pretty seminal. :p

Go with Scum, although if you want the ULTIMATE grind album (IMO) go with Repulsion's Horrified. That album is riff-a-licious. :D

But who decides what is Christainity? Fundamentalists? People who try to live the life by the good vaules? Religion is what you make it. In the end if your a good person that is all that matters. Christainity can give you some great vaules to live by. Christanity isn't nesscarly no sex etc. Got to remember man changed religion for his benefits or beliefs.

Doesn't mean to say that genuine Christians aren't worthless either, mind you.

I agree. Except with 'christ raping black metal'. I have yet to see anything to even remotely suggest that I am sinning by listening to it. For example, I wouldn't wear a Slayer God Hates Us All shirt, but I would definitely go to one of their shows (maybe I wouldn't after watching "Fans Rule", but that's another issue) and maybe buy the cd if I saw it cheap. I have no problem with listening to the band's music, but I certainly don't want to advertise a band that blaspheme my God. I very much believe that I am a geniune christian, God is the most important thing to me in life and I hope that others believe I am geniune.

And I definitely will never have pre marital sex or get drunk (Obviously it's not something I can absolutely promise, but I definitely don't see it ever happening and I will take certain steps to make sure that it doesn't), though I certainly will have sex when I am married and I certainly will drink when I am of age.



Dancin' Man, Ion Dissonance are cool, Toozey hooked me up with some songs a while ago and I think they are great. I would also like to get more into old school death metal, so if anyone has any reccomendations, I would like to hear them.

[the2stranger]

I just made an audiosrobbler account
thus far I've listened to 3 songs :p

[Deathcrush]

Note: Neither pre-Marital sex, nor listening to black metal, nor getting drunk are in the Ten Commandments. And anybody who thinks that something is a sin just because some random deciple says it is, is an idiot. Even moreso than a follower of the religion in general.

You're being pretty ****ing stupid. If you think that Christianity appreciates listening to music based entirely on denouncing their God, and the person of who's teachings they follow, then you don't really know much about Christianity.

[Riva]

Hey, Pete. Ion Dissonance are great!

So, yeah, I've just burnt a few CDs for the guy I do my album trading with. Can't wait to see what I get in return!

(He requests various albums that are hard to find in Australia, since he doesn't use the internet). I obtain them, and then burn them for him. In return, he picks 3 or 4 of his albums (all originals) and let's me borrow them for a month or so. It's pretty **** sweet. :cool:

[Deathcrush]

But who decides what is Christainity? Fundamentalists? People who try to live the life by the good vaules? Religion is what you make it. In the end if your a good person that is all that matters. Christainity can give you some great vaules to live by. Christanity isn't nesscarly no sex etc. Got to remember man changed religion for his benefits or beliefs.

If man changed a religion for his benefits or beliefs, then he can ****ing rename it. A religion can't be changed. The entire point of it is "this is how we think, how we want to live - anyone else who follows this way of thinking, we consider one of us".

Not "Alright I'm Christian now. Kickass. Well, to be honest I don't like some of this. *changes things* Yeah, now I'm a Christian that appreciates things that my religion doesn't, and does things that will potentially send me to hell."

Since I'm hungover, I'll lightheartedly make a joke of comparing calling pseudo-Christianity 'Christianity' and calling Cradle of Filth 'black metal'. :p

When people go changing the core beliefs of christianity, that is what you would call a Cult.

When does it become "too far" from the 'real' religion? Who decides that?

So it's alright to change these rules? What if I said "I will stay Christian but I will claim that murder and rape is totally justified".

Are you going to tell me that "that isn't Christianity"?

WHEN DOES IT BECOME TOO FAR DAGNABIT!?

[br3ad_man]

Well, actually, it's pretty easy to see a line in a lot of things. You mentioned the example of rape and murder. Considering that the bible explicitly prohibits it, it would be obvious. In other situations, it's not so easy for some people. There are a few core beliefs that my religion teacher came up with for christianity (probably the smartest and wisest person I know), I'll post them in a minute.

yesterday I was having an argument with some guy

we were talking about harsh death metal vocals

and I caal them growls, the other dude says, there is no such thing as growls it grunts.
after that we went on to BM vocals,; I call them shrieks, he says, there is no such thing as a shriek, it's called scream.

what's your take on it.

for me
grunt vocals: Slipknot :p
growl vocals: Opeth

scream: DEP
shriek: Emperor

np: Finntroll - Marknadsvisan

[RCA]

Growl: Disembowelment
Grunt: Suffocation, most of the time

Scream: Bathory - "A Fine Day To Die" (You know which scream it is)
Shriek: Judas Priest - "Painkiller"

IMHO.

The song happened to be Hereditary Taint, and she had this look on her face, that she gave to my roommate that essentially he needs to straighten me out and that she couldnt beleive that he was living with a racist.

about 2 minutes later she goes "how can you listen to something like that?" To which i replied, "well, its real good music".

and then she said "music can only be as good as the lyrics in front of it"

Nah, I dont think he's a racist. He can just ignore the lyrics, which I cant for some reason.

"music can only be as good as the lyrics in front of it"

well this is not fairly intelligent she could have come up with some else to express her objection against racist lyrics. Still this objection has a point and I didnt find the incident quite hilarious if you ask me.

Ah, I was just wondering, perhaps I should merge the two death head threads. :amaze:

[NJMetalMeister]

SO you are rascist?

considering half my family is of jewish descent, what do you think?

Ill give you a hint, it begins with an n and ends in an o.

For all i care the lyrics could be about two blokes rogering each other on a park bench while listening to liberace music, the lyrics mean nothing, i listen to music for the music. Sure good lyrics can enhance a song, but its easy to push them to the background when you have such brilliant music playing such as in Arghoslent.


well this is not fairly intelligent she could have come up with some else to express her objection against racist lyrics. Still this objection has a point and I didnt find the incident quite hilarious if you ask me.


Well from what I was told by my roommate while his bird was in the bathroom was that when she goes to buy a cd, unlike most of us who download the entire album to see if its worth picking up, she goes and reads all the lyrics instead of listening to it. To her the lyrics are more important than the music being played at all.

In essence she is a poetry fan, not a music fan. Which is dumb, you should like poetry for poetry, and music for music. It is one thing to like well written lyrics, but if they are your sole reason for buying an album, then just buy books.

some instrumental stuff doesn't need vocals IMO cause it has a voice in it self. but it needs some skill to write music that really says things without words.

I trhink Burzum ambient stuff is great.
a lot of post rock can express lyrics too without having vocals.

Music can be perfectly fine without lyrics...most older stuff was instrumental, and that was some of the greatest music ever written.

Dont try saying that at my university, they have been telling us since before our first semester there that the true definition of racism basically says that as long as you arent in the majority race (i.e. white males) you cant be racist. Anything else is just backlash for thousands of years of oppression :rolleyes:

[Dancin' Man]

And I will always find that rediculous. Racism will always exist so long as people say anything about seperate races. As long as define someone by a group they belong to based on physique, it will exist. Once people start saying "Yeah, the guy over there with dark skin" as opposed to "The black guy over there" things will be progressing.

"the guy over there with the dark skin" would also be considered racist by my university because it lumps them in as a group as opposed to gives recognition to their cultural heritage. The way they would want you to say it would be like "That african man over there, who is possibly from the region of Ghana" or whatever because they also tried to make us learn where different shades of darkness come from in certain areas of africa, because "all africans are not the same", but as far as they are concerned there is no difference between someone of lets say Scottish heritage and someone of Russian heritage, because they are both white europeans (even though a large majority of russians live in Asia)

I think that is more rediculous. By identifying someone based on the color of their skin is different than just calling them black. Saying "the guy with the dark skin... The really tall one, with the curly hair... between the really light skin and the guy who's really dark..." seems to me acceptable because it is a physical description with more thought than "black". It makes me think more of referring to someone as a red head or with the long beard rather than a white guy or a black guy.

I think many people use racism to their advantage now. There are many of them who will call you racist, if you tell them they're stupid. I'm also sick of hearing how "opressed" they are now. They aren't "opressed" anymore at all. Is there still racism? Yes. Are they "opressed"? No, and plus this is CANANDA. As far as I believe, Canada was never involved in the slavery of blacks. Without Canada, a lot of theit ancestors would't have been freed from slavery. In fact, Some Canadians had set up an "underground railroad" inwhich they helped blacks who were in slavery escape, and be free in Canada. But no, they still have to tell me I "opressed them".

Edit: I have no problem with blacks, I just think people are losing the idea of what racism truely is.

Well that is why my high school history teacher used to call the american university system "a foreign country". The PC crusaders as i like to call them have gone totally insane with this diversity concept. I have been told by my old roommates ex that I am racist by default just because i am a white male, and the only way to rectify it is to go to feminimity training, diversity training, and language training, but really as far as im concerned she is just taking the piss.

If she thinks that then she is inadvertantly racist. Just like the Lynch movie, The Elephant Man. The doctor thinks he is doing John Merrick a service by helping him but he only further puts the man on display and exploits him. She thinks that by so magnifying the issue, she is helping stop it but she only rejuvenates it. Only by completely disregarding the exsistence of racism can it be nullfied.

shes extremely racist and segregationist, but if you told her that she would think youre insane, oh wait, mentally challenged, my mistake. But i digress from the topic this thread is about.

Yes, despite being racist, Arghoslent rules.

Same thing could be said for hardcore-ish punk band Blue Eyed Devils.

And despite being awesome, Gorguts are.... well, awesome.

[i am the robots]

I still need to check out Gorguts, I used to have like 3 songs, but then I forgot to back those up when I reformatted :(.

[CaptainWaits]

I finally heard another great Old School Death Metal group, Autopsy, and their album Severed Survival. That's the type of Death Metal I go for, none of the Brutal Death, though Technical is sometimes d*mn sweet. What do you guys think of Autopsy??

[Dancin' Man]

Jondur has decided they are the best.

[CaptainWaits]

Jondur has decided they are the best.
His opinion has been well thought too.

[Dancin' Man]

No, your the only one

And you're an idiot. That post is over 3 years old. The forums were new and that was from death heads thread v.1. I think I will hate you until you prove yourself a valuable or helpful user.

what do you guys use to upload?
I used YSI , but it times out way too much lately.
now I'm using megaupload but it's slow as hell

so anyone?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

You could use rapidshare. Although that limits the amount someone can download in one hour. Shouldn't be the problem if its just one song or two.

[the2stranger]

thanks

/uses Raqpidshare, it's quite fast :eek:

I haven't heard Autopsy but I have a compilation of Abcess demos (with members from autopsy).

I heard the groups are similar. If you're talking about death metal that actually has a song structure and some catchy choruses with perverted topics and horrible guitar tone, then yes I like old school death metal.

[Arucard]

I bought Drudkh : Autumn Aurora and its great. I also finally got my hands of Borknagar : Epic, but was slightly dissapointed.

My best metal purchase of the week was The Haunted : The Haunted Made Me Do It.

[the2stranger]

you were disappointed by Borkanagar, and surpirised by The Haunted? :eek:

weird, Borknagar for teh win, although I haven't heard Epic

[Arucard]

I thought it was going to be a good album, just not that good.

But that Borknagar album was just meh, Quintessence all the way.

[the2stranger]

I like empiricism the best
I must really buy more borknagar albums

[Vortigon]

I have all the Borknagar albums, they are all excellent. Epic is great, but I think it takes a little while to grow on you. But then, so did Quintessence when I first got that.

I have heard rumors about them releasing an all acoustic album later this year.

Anyone know what all that is about? :confused:

[the2stranger]

awesome :D

I hope there will be huge ammounts of Keyboardand that Lazare will do lots of Vocal harmonies, and backing vocals with Vintersorg

/Lazare fanboy

[Special Brew]

Well, they did say there was going to be a wide range of instruments, so we can always hope :p

That is all the info I can find on this though. Strange, you'd think they would say something on their site. http://www.borknagar.com is the official site after all, isn't it?

[Special Brew]

Also, I just heard about this prog-rock side project of Vintersorg's called Cronian. I can't wait to hear some.

[the2stranger]

indeed, but a lot of bands have old info on their sites, esp. when touring or recording, it's annoying.

they also say, a large range of vocal styles, I wonder if there will be BM vocla s over accoustic riffs.
also I would love if Vortex and Garm made a slight contribution in the vocal department.
it would be wonderfull, Borknagar has had such talented vocalists

That info has been on the official borknagar messageboard for months now, any information updates is best to check there, not on their website which is barely updated ever.

[Special Brew]

Okay, I will go browse their boards right now.

I love almost anything with Garm in it. I love that man. Harsh vocals over acoustics would sound so good. The only band I have heard do anything like that is From Auntumn To Ashes( :lol: ). Could you suggest any other groups who do that?

[Special Brew]

Hello Folks!

As you may know, our next album will be an acoustic based album. The new album will mainly contain new songs, but we are just these days considering doing two bonus songs. And guess what.....we are thinking of doing two old songs in acoustic version. So in regards to that and on behalf of our curiosity, which two songs do you think are the most suitable for the purpose?
That is all the info I found on their message boards about the new album.

[the2stranger]

I've heard of them, I'll so Soulseek some stuff up.

Also, I think I asked you before and forgot, but what is your Soulseek username? You like the same stuff I do mostly, so I want to check out what I haven't heard .

I'll be on for a few secs, so please contact me, so I know who you are.
I can't stay on long though, but I'll be happy to give you some albums

[Special Brew]

Well, I walked off and played my guitar after my last comment so I am afraid I missed you.

My Soulseek username is Damien Rhodes, just like this one. My collection is poo right now, because I have been moving/deleting stuff. I will message you next time I see you on though.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

So I visited my local library today, and borrowed none other than Leprosy and The Sound Of Perseverance. They also had Scream Bloody Gore, but I already have that. It was a pleasant suprise to say the least. :D

[LeperAffinity]

****, that's a hell of a library.

[RiceMonster]

****, that's a hell of a library.
No kidding. Metallica and Black Sabbath are the only metal bands who have albums at my library. It's excellent if your looking into classical music though. They have a very large selection of that.

[Special Brew]

You can checkout CDs at your library? :eek:

Wtf?! Why doesn't my library have that!

[Apocalyptic Raids]

heheh. Funny thing was I wasn't even looking for what I found. I went to get some Megadeth.

I also found Emperor's Best-Of and Coroner's R.I.P..

[Slapping Penguin]

Hey guys yesterday I bought my first Cyptopsy CD. I had to choose between Blasphemy Made Flesh or And Then You'll Beg. I chose and And then.. because I prefered (doesn't mean I don't respect Lord Worms) the vocals and the production on Blasphemy would have annyoed me a bit. Doesn't mean I won't get it in the future. Well the albums is bloody good thats for sure.

[Special Brew]

Where the hell do live man?

[Chu]

My library has heaps of Australian artists, alot of Australian Jazz. I haven't ever been there for CDs, but my ex-girlfriend gave me some CDs of Australian Jazz musicians a while ago, which she had borrowed from the library.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Where the hell do live man?
Australia.

[Slapping Penguin]

Yeah Man I live in Australia in the same town as Chu, Canberra. Why do you ask.

[Special Brew]

Australia.
I don't think the US has libraries like that, not that I know of anyway.

[Slapping Penguin]

Sorry I thought you were talking to me.

[Deathcrush]

Since my soulseek isn't really working for me anymore, could anyone please upload any good funeral doom demos/albums for me. It would be totally appreciated, and I could try to pay back the favour. :)

Cheers in advance, although I assume this will go unnoticed.

[Slapping Penguin]

Well Death I would like to ease the tension between us and do it but unfortunately I don't have any.

[Riva]

My local library has an awesome CD collection. And they order stuff in for you also! I got a few DM cds from them once. :D

I live in Ausland too, by the way.

[Slapping Penguin]

God I should really check my libary.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

God I should really check my libary.

Do you have MSN?

Wow Jason, they let you order stuff in?!? That owns.

listen to in flames if you want to know what good death metal is...melo death ;)

[Jondur]

shut up idiot. We all know who in flames are. And we all know that they're really not very good and that if we wanted to listen to Melodic Death Metal we'd dig out our copies of "A Velvet Creation" or "Incorrigible Bigotry"

[Stoic]

I now OWN it: http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=56361 :cool:
japanese technical/melodic death metal slightly reminds me of arghoslent.

[Deathcrush]

I wish soulseek was less of a prick to me. I'm checking out some doom, ranging from Nortt, Evoken, Skepticism and trying but failing to get others. :mad:

I really like Evoken. :)

DCC++ saved me :)

I wish soulseek was less of a prick to me. I'm checking out some SLOW DEATH METAL, ranging from Nortt, Evoken, Skepticism and trying but failing to get others. :mad:

Not doom. If you do actually want some doom feel free to try me - same username on Soulseek.
