any other death heads?

[HappyMarshmellow]

Alaska is the song I posted. :thumb:


Uh, no. Im calling you ignorant because I post a song off the new album, and you call it Metalcore instantly without even listening to it.

I don't want to listen to that song. I'm not in the mood.

Man I hate this Babylon way of thought, people are taught to force everything that they like onto people.

Between the Buried and Me have put out mostly metalcore. So they are metalcore. I didn't say the new song was metalcore, did I?

[Endless Obsession]

No but you did respond to my post and say "BTBAM is Metalcore ****it." I just made the assumption you were answering my question.

[HappyMarshmellow]

No but you did respond to my post and say "BTBAM is Metalcore ****it." I just made the assumption you were answering my question.

Also, you already know that it's metalcore. You just want someone to back you up on your thoughts, don't you?

Why?

[Endless Obsession]

Also, you already know that it's metalcore. You just want someone to back you up on your thoughts, don't you?

Why?

Well I thought they were Metalcore, then I listened to that song and it sounded death metal to me. Im not an expert on Death metal so I wanted a second opinion.

Back to the FYE topic.

The Mall here in Salisbury has an FYE which has a great Metal section.... if you want oldschool Nu-Metal albums for $5 bucks a pop... but other than that, it sucks... now a town nearby, Whitehall has a much larger mall, and somehow, don't ask me how, the FYE there turned into a Metal haven recently, their Metal section has some really rare Death, Black, and Thrash material, and for reasonable prices at that, it's a freaking dream come true, the 15 min. drive is so freaking worth it.

Nu metal for $5 a pop is like crack for $1 a rock; It's just not worth it, no matter how cheap it is.

[superflyjojo]

Can someone reccommend me some Cannibal Corpse to start out with. I'm just starting to get into them.

[manuscriptreplica]

Try their early albums, Butchered at Birth is a good one.

[Dancin' Man]

HM - are you suggesting a band can't change their sound and should therfore one's opinions on the band should be based on what they may have sounded like at one point? If so I think many people in here would hate Carcass thanks to Swansong and Amorphis would be a no-no band considering Am Universum. That is what I think was ignorant about your statement. BtBaM have taken a much more diverse path in their music and while Metalcore is there, so is lots of other stuff. The fact that Byzantine posted Alaska was maybe a poor choice as that song is based on power metal and metalcore and doesn't support my statement well at all but what can be done.

[superflyjojo]

Yeah I was probably going to pick up Butchered or Tomb Of The Mutilated

Comparing Between the Buried and Me to the likes of Carcass and Amorphis isn't smart at all.

But I get what you mean. I just don't like Between the Buried and Me, the same way I don't like metalcore.

I sit on here for an while before I go to bed and then hardly anybody posts then I wake up the next night and have to read though 4 pages on posts hahaha.

Uh, no. Im calling you ignorant because I post a song off the new album, and you call it Metalcore instantly without even listening to it. Oh god I hate that. People just say so many bands are so called Metalcore sh*it (See earlier) without even giving it a shot, dimissing it and when they probely wouldn't have the slitest clue as to what Metalcore sounds like.

Yeah it is a Death Thread, but that doesn't mean we act like a pack of elitist tools and dismiss or other music. (and yeah the guy asked if the band was Death Metal so it is related you idiot)

Too militant? Do you even know the meaning of the word you fool. You are a twit. I guess it makes you tough to tell a guy to suck your own peni s on a internet site. Just stop been a wang and I may wanted to know you better. Thats my rant you can countine but I won't.

[HappyMarshmellow]

Still have 3 girlfriends? :lol:

:lol:

I remember those days.

No man, I'm just going straight with my girl now. I've been with her 10 months actually and I haven't cheated at all.

She's a crazy nympho. If I don't please her sexually, she actually gets pissed at me. She starts fighting and bitching and stuff, and that's when I know I have to go down on her and make everything OK again :lol:

But I really like her. I'm still smoking pot and doing drugs in general, and I still listen to metal even though I've gotten really into reggae, electronica, and country music.

I'm actually playing bass for a latin jazz band now, my death metal bands have all fallen apart and the reggae band I was in smoked itself apart.

I'm going to start a more progressive metal band this week with a few old buds though. I'm going to sing and play guitar, so I'll be the frontman.

Everything is pretty good. :cool:

Go and whine somewhere else, man. Nobody needs these weak vibes.

If you chill a bit, we can clean the slate and know each other better. I'm just opinionated is all, but I'm all around a friendly guy. How about we do that? I'm up for it.

That's cool. I respect you now.

I noticed you have an Opeth shirt on.

Blackwater Park dominated a good part of my listening during my more depressing high school years. It's good stuff, thick and atmospheric.

I got Damnation a while ago and I didn't like it at first, but it's definetly growing on me. I've got to get some more herb, probably tomorrow, and give it a spin now that I'm reminded I have it.

Have you heard Steel, the joke band with the members of Opeth?

[Slapping Penguin]

Nope is it good? Yeah Blackwater Park is very good. Well I don't have the shirt on my pet penguin umm........... Flossie does. Steel eh. So bunch on funnies are they?

Yea, I didn't think they were. Most lyrics I looked at were about acient(sp?) Egypt, but I thought there may have been deeper maenings to them.

Unless you meant the Skepticism album Farmakon, in which case... damn :lol:

Thanks a lot man! I can now understand the comparison with Opeth but the death parts are more crunchy traditional tech death and the clean parts funky and fun :D

hxxp://s7.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=30PKZRVGCF56Z0PG4WK3OLQ7V1

This is the song I was talking about. Could an expert please listen and tell me if it is death metal.

Finally a BTBAM song without mellow parts! I agree with Dancin' Man, this is a coherent blend of various genres. It differs at some certain points from a traditional (tech) death band but yet it has many similarities I cant overlook. Well in my opinion this sounds like technical/melodic death metal with a well concealed -core touch (=metalcore-ish breakdowns and too trebely guitar tone and modern production for the death standards). The vocals are smartly done, dont sound screamo-ish at all to me (they're not pure death at certain parts as well). They kind remind me of Origin's as well :p To be honest, I wouldnt have problem cautiously calling this death metal. Does the rest of the album sound like this or other songs have mellow clean parts as well?

[Magicaltroll]

STEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL!!

I love that EP so much. I remember making a thread about them a few months back, but everyone ignored it :upset:

[Lord Abortion]

Yeah I was probably going to pick up Butchered or Tomb Of The Mutilated
I would suggest live cannibalism, gore obsessed, the bleeding or gallery of suicide

Chris barnes' vocals are nly better than average on the bleeding and George is miles better than that too...

live cannibalism has all the great songs off the bleeding, (stripped, raped and strangled and staring through the eyes of the dead, to name two of the very best) and with a much better vocalist, tomb of the mutilated however, I cum blood and hammer smashed face apart, sucks in comparison the the later albums or mid period ones, and live cannibalism has those two one with george aswell.

butchered at birth is a good album, but again, has chris barnes on it, not so good, and besides, meat hook sodomy, covered with sores and gutted are on the live album too...

so, get gore obsessed and live cannibalism please...much much better than butchered or tomb...

I can prove this with uploads if you want...

[HappyMarshmellow]

I listen to music for the music, not for the beliefs man. :lol:

No, this is impossible. As soon as you listen to music that doesn't preach christianity, you are giving into satan and "materialism".

Yeah, I hate the mentality as well. God forbid they be a little open minded.

[Arrakakaka]

I'm starting to listen to more Napalm Death when they switched to straightforward death metal. They're actually pretty awesome.

[Lord Abortion]

My drama teacher is an orthodox christian, he's an actul preacher bloke in his spare time, however, he's really cool in spite of this, I explained to him about the Norwegian BM movement when it came up in conversation, and how the rejection of christianity was due, largely to the Force and horrific slaughter that brought christianity into norway and the destruction of the traditional belief systems, aswell as simple teenage rebellion.
He was really appreciative of the information, and seemed to agree that this was an understandable thing... it was interesting to hear his views on it, I think that alot of the religious idiocy in the christian-Jewish religions is in America... the religious people here tend to be more open minded in my experience...

Yes! Inquity freaking rules, the lyrics by Fagerland are ****ing epic, the rest of their lyrics are kinda juvenile though, Grime is an excellent album, also, since we're on the topic of Inquity, would Sludge Metal be considered a sub-genre of Death Metal or just another etreme Metal sub-genre that is very similar?

[ninjamonkey]

No, sludge is not a sub-genre of death. Sludge can either be metal-y or rock-y, but I'd still call it a sub-genre of metal.

Melodic Death you idiot, Melodic Death is nothing like death metal.

[Slapping Penguin]

Yes it is. It has Death Vocals, Death Blast beats the only thing different is the guitar is alot more melodic. Stop trying to look good.

WHOAAA I just heard THE CHAOS PATH by Arcturus GEEZ IT IS GOOD. I LOVE THE START.

[Riva]

The Chaos Path is great. You can really hear the influence of The Trial by Pink Floyd. One of my all-time favourite Arcturus tracks.

[Slapping Penguin]

Well I just copied the Wall and Dark on to my Itunes. I will have to listen to the Trial.

the2Stranger, after hearing that Growl Karakoa thing a while back it made me donwload the bullents breath and is now one of my faviorite DM songs. It is a great listen.

[manuscriptreplica]

/listens to the Trial.

Hey you're probably right! Did you hear them say that or what

[Slapping Penguin]

Yeah I just litened to it too you could diffentetely hear the influences.

Is Ulver Black Metal. If it is I might have to investigate as I was looking on the Arcturus website and was a Ulver album metioned about Willam Blake which makes me think again what I thought was just idiots in corpse paint might be actaully very deep and intellegent.

[Riva]

/listens to the Trial.

Hey you're probably right! Did you hear them say that or what

Nah, I just guessed from the way Garm sounded slightly British, had that strange sort of catch at the end of his voice, and the general feel of the song musically.

[manuscriptreplica]

Vortex was on that track. But it is very bouncy, 2 feel ish, like the Trial.

[Riva]

Oops, I though Garm did La Masquerade Infernale.

But yeah, great band all around, and my eyes really perked up when I first heard The Chaos Path. :p

[manuscriptreplica]

Garm did, Vortex randomly did The Chaos path.

[Slapping Penguin]

Well put it this way I am glad to have investigated these guys.

[The Gates Of Heaven]

Yes it is. It has Death Vocals, Death Blast beats the only thing different is the guitar is alot more melodic. Stop trying to look good.

WHOAAA I just heard THE CHAOS PATH by Arcturus GEEZ IT IS GOOD. I LOVE THE START.

Haha, am I being told off by an Opeth/Arcturus fan? LOL!

It has weak vocals, and blast beats don't mean anything. The guitar as you said is more melodic.

Melodic 'death' metal is just pure ****, while death metal is amazingly good (in some cases)

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Yeah I just litened to it too you could diffentetely hear the influences.

Ulver is all kinds of genres, from folk to black to electronica to ambient.

Themes From William Blake's The Marriage of Heaven and Hell is the name of that Ulver album by the way.

And to think that black metal is just a bunch of idiots prancing around in corpse paint like idiots is quite the ignorant statement.

[Slapping Penguin]

Oh I agree it is extemely ignorant. Don't think for one second I am justifing myself, its a poor opinion that I and you should not take too seriously. I just hold lightely because I don't know any better and I am just judging on their looks and personas. Don't worry I THOUGHT it was pack of idiots in corpse paint. Never said IT WAS.

Haha, am I being told off by an Opeth/Arcturus fan? LOL!

Melodic 'death' metal is just pure ****, while death metal is amazingly good (in some cases)

Yeah, real funny :rolleyes: Yes blast beats do mean something as they a key point in defining basic Death Metal.

Death metal is usually identified by extreme brutality, intensity and speed. "Blast beats" are frequently used to add to the intensity of the music. The vocals - death grunts, (guttural roars) or "growls", as they are often called, are rough and often incomprehensible (sometimes derisively called "Cookie Monster vocals" by those who dislike this vocal style).

www.Answer.com

To YOU the vocals may be weak. To say Melodic Death is pure **** is a statement only an idiot would make. Fine you may not like it then fine don't like it. I can live with that everybody likes what they like. Like you I also enjoy plain Death Metal but to say Melodeth is rubbish you just established your self as a twat. Think before you post and don't try to impress a bunch of Death Head by acting extreme.

Melodic Death you idiot, Melodic Death is nothing like death metal.

Melodic death metal is a sub-genre of death metal. It has some of the same basic characteristics of death metal. Therefore melodic death is something like death metal.

Haha, am I being told off by an Opeth/Arcturus fan? LOL!

It has weak vocals, and blast beats don't mean anything. The guitar as you said is more melodic.

Melodic 'death' metal is just pure ****, while death metal is amazingly good (in some cases)

And he's getting told of by someone who, as far as I can tell, likes nothing? And can only name a few bands that were (probably) looked up on Metal-Archives? Or can you name some more? Because the only ones I've actually seen you name have been the more known LLN bands.

Seriously...I agree about In Flames (newer stuff at any rate). But don't be a ****ing little cockwhore all the time. Melodic death can be great if done right...ie: Eucharist, Carcass, old At The Gates etc.

[Slapping Penguin]

Thanks Marduk.

(Gives a wigger hand gesture and says "MX Pride fo real)

Melodic death metal is generally considered an offshoot of death metal. The subgenre contains more melodic guitar riffs and solos, which are sometimes acoustic, and also occasional 'clean' singing as opposed to traditional death grunt vocals. The song structures are generally more progressive, using diverse themes throughout the song. Death and Morbid Angel, often considered the "godfathers" of death metal, are primary influences on the genre, but its progenators are still a mystery. Some credit In Flames as the band which popularised the sub-genre. Melodic Death metal, though from the same geographic area as Black Metal, rarely speaks of Satanism or the downfall of Christianity, but has more poetic themes, which vary greatly.

/restrains self from flaming melo-death randomly

What I don't understand is why former and sub BM bands like Old man's child, dimmu borgir and, yes Cradle of filth, get pretty much flamed relentlessly in places wheras melo-death is held as a legitamate genre?
they hold pretty much the same places in the genres IMO

[Stoic]

there's a chasm between commercial NWOSDM and the rest of melodic death that some people seem not to grasp.

[superpeer]

I never understood why Old Man's Child get so much hating anyway, apart from their relations to CoF and Dimmu. Their last album was superb.

[NJMetalMeister]

I never understood why Old Man's Child get so much hating anyway, apart from their relations to CoF and Dimmu. Their last album was superb.

I would say thats probably why. Although i love OMC

[superpeer]

That's a pretty stupid reason then, oh no, Nick Barker Plays (Played) in OMC, they have the same awesome drummer that Dimmu Borgir had, o noes. :eek:

Can't say much about Galder either. Ok, they do look kinda goofy. :p But they're all great musicians. But if looking goofy was a reason to hate a band, black metal would die quickly, as would Power Metal.

By the way: Is metal-archives gone?

[Stoic]

it looks so dammit! :angry:

[Lord Abortion]

Nick Barker was also the drummer until midian for Cradle of filth, I think that was the point that you could say the music evolved totally away from BM, although Cruelty and DAHE aren't specifically BM, you can see the elements are still there

[Arucard]

Ok, is the argument above about Gothenburg Melodic Death? Or Melodic Death Metal? Because you Melodic Death Metal is obviously Death metal, listen to Arsis and tell me the blast beats and vocals are 'weak.'

If you are talking about In Flames, i agree to an extent, but other Gothenburg like Carcass and At The Gates is also obviously DM.

Actually, there's a few people here who don't like Opeth, myslef included. The fellation of Arcturus is pretty much universal in this thread though.

Anyway, Carcass - Reek Of Putrefaction and Napalm Death - Scum both turned up today. Two essentials I guess, I've not listened to them yet though.

arcturus are avant garde ;)

[One Step Beyond]

They are not melodeath. They are symphonic black metal, or symphonc extreme metal, since some people are under the assumption they have no BM qualities.

EDIT: Stoic said avant garde, thats a better classification :p

[Lord Abortion]

OK my bad... I'll give them a listen ...

[LegionsofMarduk]

Seeing as we're whoring out Arcturus on this page...Stoic's got La Masquerade Infernale covered...Azathoth's got The Sham Mirrors covered...I'll post a song from Asper Heims Symphonia. I haven't heard La Masquerade Infernale, but Aspera is more black metal than The Sham Mirrors. Very symphonic black metal.

What cheese.

Anyway, I think LMI has been the best Arcturus so far. It was more experimental than both AHS and SM and just had better song writing overall I thought.

[Arucard]

'Radical Cut' with Ihsahn from Emperor is a very solid track, its also very brutal.

[Vortigon]

Hmm, I was just thinking, wouldn't it be interesting if Vortex started his own band where he wrote all(or most) of the music. I mean everyone knows he has incredible vocal capabilities, but from what I've heard of music he's had a larger hand in writing than usual he seems to have some awesome, off-key ideas. I think it would be cool anyway.

This comes to mind cause I'm listening to "Ad Noctum" by Borknagar.

I really dont think that's a very good description.

I can't think of any melodeath (gothenburg) that has clean singing, nor can i think of any clean singing examples in melodic death metal.

[Dancin' Man]

Melodic death as I see it is simply metal with a huge focus on melody. Technicality, originality and heaviness are all secondary. I don't actully understand why it is called melodic death metal except that it was created by bands that had been death metal started playing it. I see maybe a closer link to power metal than death metal as far as MDM goes.

[Corporal Compendia]

If you have a problem with those two bands, you aren't going to be well-liked aroudn here.

Sure he is! I like him already!!

So guys, is it just me, or does CBT - Opus(sy) VI groove and crush like no other album?! No... no it's not me.

I acquired this album today along with:

Dead Infection - Surgical Disembowelment
Agathocles - Superiority Overdose DVD
Pungent Stench/Brutal Glockel Terror Split Tape
Soothsayer - To Be A Real Terrorist Demo Tape

I rock.

[Stoic]

uh...Is there any band liked by ALL of us in here?!

Atheist come to my mind. Is there anyone who doesnt like them?

[Dancin' Man]

Just so everyone knows, The Chaos Path is the best Arcturus song released so far. Hopefully the new album, with Vortex sounds like it.

Is there anyone here who doesn't like Atheist or Death or Emperor?

Stoic - did you edit your post? I think you did because I posted this before I saw you enter Atheist into it.

[Corporal Compendia]

Atheist wins. Discussion over.

Time to listen to Dead Infection... Their first full length. I've not yet heard this one, but I am quite excited!

Right, you have sub or former BM bands, like Old Man's child, Dimmu borgir and, Yes, CoF, which get alot of flaming... then you have Normal BM right?

on the DM side of things you have Arch enemy, in flames and other bands from Gothenburg... which don't get as much flaming...then you have good DM (sorry, couldn't help myself)

I can't see why one offshoot of a genre for BM should get flamed mercilessly and the same sort of commercial offshoot for DM doesn't get as much flaming, and is held as a legitamate genre...

[Dancin' Man]

I dig the tech/core side of grind. Bands like Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza, The End or Ed Gein.

Can anyone find me audio of Origin? I hear they are really awesome and I saw a band (Animosity. Death metal from San Fransisco, I'll post their album Empires later. Their drummer is the likely replacement for Sleep Terror if that means anything :thumb: ) who had toured with them. They said they are awesome and to check them out. I looked at MA and in fact, they are reviewed as being quite good but look a little boring for my tastes maybe. Also, I want to check out Cephalic Carnage, Burnt by the Sun and Dim Mak.

My guess is because for the most part, black metal is less impressive than death metal. That is to say, one doesn't need to be an amazing instrumentalist to be in a black metal band whereas death metal (or IMO power metal for MDM) takes a bit more skill. That's just me though. Since I normally hate boring death metal, I tend to just entirely ignore those bands and have a slightly lopsided view of the genre.

Because those Old Man's Child, Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth are ridiculous; even most symphonic black metal fans will agree.

And it's as simple as that.

[Lord Abortion]

I can't see how Arch enemy are less commercial than cradle are...

[Deathcrush]

Death metal is a more commercial genre than black metal is (infact, it was because of death metal's commercial status that black metal took off); so bands who 'sell out' are treated much more harshly in the BM genre than in DM.

Arch Enemy are a joke too, but:

Black metal's image is important because it's very serious music.

I mean that BM bands have to maintain a dark, mysterious image, or else the listening experience is not as great.

Listening to a cheery, party loving black metal musician isn't the same as listening to a depressed, abhorrent soul who mutilates himself and hates humanity.

[Riva]

Yeah, I can't remember the exact reason he was depressed, but he commited suicide not long after the band started getting big.

[Lord Abortion]

I believe Euronymous said to Hellhammer "Dead's gone home" as a way of breaking the news, apparently they believed he was better off dead because of his depression,
I will research this further tonight to remind me of the exact details, post it in the morning/afternoon

[Deathcrush]

Euronymous must've placed it like that, because I've seen the real photograph and it's nearly exactly the same as the artist's impression.

And yes, Dead was a psychopathic depressant; he believed that he was actually dead due to a near death experience (illness related) as a child. If I remember correctly.

He was depressed partially because he wanted to see evil, but all he saw were people roaming around "in baseball caps" [- Euronymous quote] and other sorts. You get the picture; the world was pathetic and too based around 'love' for him to handle. He wanted to see evil and hatred.

[Lord Abortion]

Well, being deceased isn't too cool.
On the contrary, I would suspect he's extremely cold now...

[Deathcrush]

That was discraceful.

Guards, seize him!

[Lord Abortion]

Apologies for the ****ing terrible pun

[Deathcrush]

It will take more than apologizing to heal these bullet-wounds.

[ninjamonkey]

He was depressed partially because he wanted to see evil, but all he saw were people roaming around "in baseball caps" [- Euronymous quote] and other sorts. You get the picture; the world was pathetic and too based around 'love' for him to handle. He wanted to see evil and hatred.
Haha. Isn't that a little weird?

[One Step Beyond]

Haha. Isn't that ****ing crazy??
Fix'd and yes.

I've got an AR-15 from Vietnam with the original wire cutter barrel end that was later recalled by the government. It shoots pretty nice

[One Step Beyond]

I hate guns :(

I am fine with any other weapons though. I have a small assortment of nifty looking daggers, swords, and such that I get at flea markets. They are worth anythingm but they are fun to mess with my friends with. We have samurai/viking battles all the time :cool:

Not very smart, I know, but it is fun.

The Dead sucide story is on Metal Archives.

Yeah I have a Samurai sword I picked up in China (Yes I know they were not samurai but it is a samurai sword) for 40 bucks Aus. It is all black with silver guard and scabbed tip with a caving of a dragon on it.

Haha. Isn't that a little weird? I think so. Is Mayhem even really evil now. I mean without Varg, Euro and Dead. Is Hellhammer even bad. How did they get so screwed up.

[One Step Beyond]

I don't think Hellhammer is 'evil'. He just seems to be an amazing drummer that goes from band to band providing us with wonderful music. It must be hard to get that evil feeling out when your primary instrument is drums, heh.

Samurai sword? Last time I checked it was called a "Katana"

Also, Varg isn't necessarily evil, just really wierd... he is very ignorant, and has gotten more so with time, but originall he just had a kind of "Viking" perspective, also, he killed Euronymous in self defense :thumb:.

[Ihsahn]

Euronymous must've placed it like that, because I've seen the real photograph and it's nearly exactly the same as the artist's impression.

And yes, Dead was a psychopathic depressant; he believed that he was actually dead due to a near death experience (illness related) as a child. If I remember correctly.

He was depressed partially because he wanted to see evil, but all he saw were people roaming around "in baseball caps" [- Euronymous quote] and other sorts. You get the picture; the world was pathetic and too based around 'love' for him to handle. He wanted to see evil and hatred.


See, that "psychopathic depressant" thing is something I find sortof hard to believe. People talk about him always roaming around in corpse paint and being really serious, quiet and reserved, and never smiling etc... However, I have a video of a Mayhem rehearsal with Dead and Euronymous, and before they go in the barn he's joking around oustide with whoever's filming, and seems pretty happy-go-lucky, smiling and laughing.

[the2stranger]

I dig the tech/core side of grind. Bands like Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza, The End or Ed Gein.

Can anyone find me audio of Origin? I hear they are really awesome and I saw a band (Animosity. Death metal from San Fransisco, I'll post their album Empires later. Their drummer is the likely replacement for Sleep Terror if that means anything :thumb: ) who had toured with them. They said they are awesome and to check them out. I looked at MA and in fact, they are reviewed as being quite good but look a little boring for my tastes maybe. Also, I want to check out Cephalic Carnage, Burnt by the Sun and Dim Mak.


didn't you read my wrie-up about them last week? :eek:
it had a full album download, the link mightt still be working if you're quick

S-T-R-A-N-G-E stuff on Cephalic Carnage (http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=384755)

Is this a computer video that can be uploaded??

[The Gates Of Heaven]

If you have a problem with those two bands, you aren't going to be well-liked aroudn here.

Shut up. I don't care to fit in here. I've found 2 people here that I talk to outside of the forums, and a further 3 or 4 who know what they are talking about, and even less that have a decent knowledge of extreme metal. Do not try to harness my opinion. Why should I have to change my tastes to conform to your pathetic views?

[Lord Abortion]

anyone else like neoplasmah?
they seem all tech-death or melo-death, but I like them quite a bit.

I do (cheers RCA :D)! I found their album in a mailorder but the bastard hasnt replied yet :angry:

[craggyisland]

Omfg! You have Natasha in mp3! I love you! I've been trying to find this mp3 everywhere. Thanks. :D
Haha, cheers :lol:

I love that EP so much. I remember making a thread about them a few months back, but everyone ignored it :upset:
I didn't, that's the only reason I found out about them. :thumb:

Rotten Sound
Yeah, they're great.

Discordance Axis
I couldn't get into them though, despite the fact that I like the music a lot, the vocalist sounds too much like Seth Putnam for my liking.

When I got back today I had 9 CDs waiting for me, including Cryptopsy, Arghoslent, Mortifera, Velvet Cacoon, Xasthur and others, so that should keep me entertained for the next few days.

[Bartender]

EDIT: ^Which Cryptopsy, and which Arghoslent?

Just finished catching up (kind of). You guys post a lot in five weeks.

Has it really been nine months since Legions kid was born? :-/ It seems like maybe three, at most.

Anyway, whilst away I picked up (amongst other things) Reverend Bizarre's Harbinger of Metal EP from the slim metal pickings I found. It's almost as good as it is long.

Blasphemy Made Flesh, And Then You'll Beg, and Incorrigible Bigotry, all of which I've had downloaded for a while and not yet bought.

Long time no see :wave:

[theresareason]

ok :(
good luck with fixing it..

I think I also prefer slightly livelier doom (lively by doom metal standards, anyway) most of the time, but not all the time, so I like it, provided I have time to listen to it.

Yep. Hopefully back for a long while now, though.

Good albums, too. Blasphemy.. and Incorrigible Bigotry anyway, I've not heard ATYB in full.

[Lord Abortion]

I need more doom, actually, I've only really got into candlemass and Cathedral

[Bartender]

If you like Candlemass, you'd probably like Solitude Aeturnus. I might be able to upload a song of theirs for you, but I'm not sure what the YSI situation around here is like now.

it's alright, as long as you use the HXXP thing when putting the link in, so it's no longer a url, they can't trace

not too long ago:

OmgZZ!! Check out my new Emperor shirt. On the back it says ' Now that i am gone, put thorns on my grave' or something corny like that.

:lol::lol::lol:

[Arucard]

:(

I can't stop talking about that shirt. I really wanted this Dark Throne one with the Soulside Journey cover on the front, but on the back it said something like 'We will rape your dreams of heaven' or something. I was abit like :\ I don't wanna get beaten down by the KKK.

KKK?

I got called a goth too once.
I was like: WTF?!!!? :lol:
I was wearing a hawaii shirt for god's sake.
must be the long hair maybe, or more likely, the iignorance of the peole who called me a goff in the first place

[Arucard]

Yah, people do have no idea what goth is. I also get abused by the 'real' goths for not liking Korn and Slipknot. I can't win!

I get called it constantly, for some reason usually when I wear my Jack Daniels t-shirt. I seriously have no idea why that is, but most people my age around here are useless wastes of oxygen, who spend most of their time throwing eggs at houses and such.

I know, there are hardly any people with whom I can discuss music in real live.
the boards is my only oppertunity to discuss good metal, instead of all those poseurs that whine how talaented corey taylor is, and how deep his lyrics are, and how good fieldy's bassplaying is, are trying to own me.

that's why I don't really like to go out, and meet' """metalheads""" from my area

Same here really, altough i gradually got my mate Jamie into DM, through a mixture of DragonForce and CoB. He went out and bought the new Obituary album!
