Does anyone know if Discordance Axis is broken up?
I was looking at some of their reviews on amazon, and someone said someting like "this is their final release, but it is amazing". Anyone know anything about that?

EDIT
Nevermind, they did break up :(
This band rules! I'm kinda bummed out that they won't be making more material.
It kinda reminds me of Pig Destroyer, but with more high pitched vocals, which I love. Corporal, do you know any bands like this? I think it's the production and vocals I like the most. I just love high pitched screams, and clear-ish production.

The vocals are too loud and kind of screechy, but they are decent. The guitars and drums really need to be boosted up.

The more I listen, the more the vocals bug me. Turn them down and try to work out that 'screechy' edge to them.

I need some help from my fellow guitarists. I know very little theory and the guitar forum wouldn't be too helpful since this is kind of a specific subject.

I am trying to start a black/death solo project once I get a mic for my computer. I am going to record the guitar and bass parts(possibly vocals :p) then probably send them to someone on these boards to work out the drums. Now, this is really my first attempt at black or death metal. I have made riffs and things that I think sound good, but I am at a roadblock, so to speak, and I can't seem to come up with anything else. Just so you know, I am going for a technical almost melo-death sound, possibly much like a more brutal version of Opeth with hints of black metal picking thrown in.

Now, to get to the point finally; What kind of scales and progressions are commonly used in black/death metal?

I know many bands seems to played in a A harmonic minor scale, but use the 5th note(E) and the root note. E is treated as if it were a minor, even though, according the scale, it should be treated as a major. I know that a phygian E scale is also used quite a bit. I know there must be more tricks and scales that I just don't know, which is why I'm here.

Many of you will say somehting like, 'play whatever sounds good', and I have been told that many times. I know that all these great death metal bands must know what they are doing, and play around with scales and progressions they already know in order to get the right sound. I highly doubt that they just pick up a guitar and play 'whatever sounds good'. Any help would appreciated.

I'm sorry that I wrote so much, ranted, went off topic and whatnot. But it's 3:15AM and I am tired of searching for information online. Thanks in advance for any info.

Welcome to the world of creating your own music.


Now, to get to the point finally; What kind of scales and progressions are commonly used in black/death metal?


Write what you think sounds good. That's far more important than scales (Especially in the riffs themselves). If you want to write a solo based on theory, that's different.


Many of you will say somehting like, 'play whatever sounds good', and I have been told that many times.

I highly doubt that they just pick up a guitar and play 'whatever sounds good'. Any help would appreciated.

I actually do pick it up and play what sounds good. If it's your thing, by all means use scales, though they AREN'T NECESSARY to write good music. I wish I had more theory in my background, though.


It sounds like you know what scales you want to use, but just haven't. Also, you don't need to do the same thing as everyone else. Find a scale you like and use it. Scales shouldn't be restricted to a genre. I wrote a lead/melody riff (when I was stuck and couldn't think of ideas) off of an Indian scale. It fits great and sounds original.

Hopefully this is slightly helpful. I can't really say much except just start writing and recording. Chances are you won't be happy with a lot of it, but keep with it and keep writing. Eventually you'll find out how you like doing it and what works for you.

I also recommend doing a cover to get used to your equiptment and to get into the routine of recording a song.

[One Step Beyond]

I've written things before with teh various bands I have been in, but they were always punk based, which is written very differently.

I am wanting my music to make sense when read. I get annoyed with music that I can't make sense of when i try to learn it, so I don't want to do that. Knowing some scales just kind of give me a guide, I don't stick to them, they just show me some common intervals and such.

Recording a cover sounds like a good idea, and it would probably help me notice how certain songs are played better. I tend to only learn a riff or two of a song before I move on, so I don't always get a good idea of how the song was written.

Thanks!

Now, if anyone else has input, I'm still open :p

[Slapping Penguin]

See I think thats very odd Damien as never run out of riffs but I always forget them or I can't put them together how I want. Too many riffs but I am bad at puting them in what order and stuff. I don't use Chorus and Verses etc as I like it like a classical piece where it just keeps driving on and not repting it self.

Japanese Scales sound cool

I will tell you what some famous muisco said once or something like it.

"You must learn the rules to study music,
but you must forget them to make it"

Japanese scales? I've never even heard of that, could you link me perhaps?

I was looking through Opeth tabs and I figured I was overlooking something obvious. They seem to use mainly one scale, which is the harmonic minor scales but the root note seems to change for various songs, but they always choose one of minor notes in the scale (except in the case of playing in A minor, where they use a E minor). They also switch the modes quite often during every song. I was playing around with this and I made quite lick sthat I like. This should help me get over 'writers block' much easier.

[manuscriptreplica]

in Death metal they mainly use the diminished scale (1, b2, b3, 4, b5, b6, b7) and neo-classical bands use the harmonic minor scale (1, 2, b3, 4, 5, b6, 7). Some however use a combination of both :eek: The only notes metallers don't generally use is the major 3rd and the major 6th, that would be too happy in the world of depressing heavy metal.

Character is such an amazing album

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

neo-classical bands use the harmonic minor scale (1, 2, b3, 4, 5, b6, 7).

I think you mean 1, 2, b3, 4, 5 b6, #7

Harmonic minor is just the natural minor with a #7. You described the natural minor.

[Ad Absurdum]

I think you mean 1, 2, b3, 4, 5 b6, #7

Harmonic minor is just the natural minor with a #7. You described the natural minor.
The harmonic minor doesn't have a #7, it has a major 7 (as opposed to the minor 7 - same as b7 - from the natural minor). So the 7th is half a step sharper than in the natural minor, but it's written as 1, 2, b3, 4, 5, b6, 7.

in Death metal they mainly use the diminished scale (1, b2, b3, 4, b5, b6, b7) and neo-classical bands use the harmonic minor scale (1, 2, b3, 4, 5, b6, 7).

NP Gorguts - Inverted.
When people use the word neo-classical describing metal bands it's actually wrong. Neo-classical is stuff like Stravinsky, classical music that takes well-known classical melodies but uses dischords and crazy time signatures to create the ugly bastard mutations of these well-known melodies.

There aren't any really any set rules as to what scales/notes to use. Like Manuscriptreplica said it's an idea to avoid major intervals if you are trying to create something depressing; but then again a major 6th can have a really nice melodic effect if you are going for that. Although it's really down to the individual, I really like hearing a minor sixth in a melody, I think it gives a nice effect.

[One Step Beyond]

Those japanese scales seem to just be penatonics and things taken out of other modes I already knew :p

[Corporal Compendia]

Yeah discordance Axis broke up because their guitar player started having siesures while playing live, and they couldnt continue. Their drummer went to some metalcore band, Burnt By the Sun i think, but i could be wrong

He was in Burnt by the Sun, but now he's in MUNICIPAL WASTE!

[Magicaltroll]

Well, I didn't think the vocals were absolutely dreadful or anything. You could probably be quite good if you practiced and trained your voice. They sounded pretty good except at certain times when they seemed to be too high pitched and screeched, like I mentioned earlier.
Thanks.
I actually want a sound like the guy from Discordance Axis or Pig Destroyer.
But I know that won't happen for a while. So from now on, I'll probably do lower vocals, or maybe try to work on it, because I'm not a huge fan of low growls.

Thanks for letting me know though, really, I appreciate it.

[Stoic]

Nah, it's not that I suck horribly, it's just that the stuff I think of is usually insanely fast, and technical.

Well, Municipal Waste certainly aren't for everyone, but if you're a fan old old crossover thrash/hardcore(Like D.R.I, Cryptic Slaughter, Cro-Mags, Wehrmacht, etc.), then you'd love them, as I do. Short, catchy, FAST songs!

In your opinion, who is the best DM guitarist?

I think:
Trey Azagthoth
Karl Sanders
Chuck Schulinder

[Fallen Zero]

I'd say its Muhammed Suicmez.

[Slapping Penguin]

In what way. For speed and solos I would say Alex Auburn and Jon Levasseur of Cyptopsy and Muhammed Suicmez.

[i am the robots]

I'd have to go with either Glenn Ljungstrom, Alex Auburn, or Peter Lindgren.

[manuscriptreplica]

Probably Leon Macey (Mithras) or Azagthoth... purely for their effects + solos. Anyone can play fast.

[ThrashMaster27]

James Murphy for solos. All round....probably Chuck Schuldiner.

[slaughteredfirst]

Karl Sanders for skill.

Chuck or Nergal for song writting.

[manuscriptreplica]

When people use the word neo-classical describing metal bands it's actually wrong.

how would you describe bands like Necrophagist, then? Who use the same scales and structure as classical songs?

I think you mean 1, 2, b3, 4, 5 b6, #7

Harmonic minor is just the natural minor with a #7. You described the natural minor.

There's no such thing as a #7, that would be the 1.

[RiceMonster]

Probably Leon Macey (Mithras) or Azagthoth... purely for their effects + solos. Anyone can play fast.
Hell yes!

I also like the Egyptian styles Karl Sanders adds to his music, so I'd go for him.

[Stoic]

I dont have a favourite guitarist and dom...the drums seem to me even more difficult and I live in a flat :p

[Ad Absurdum]

how would you describe bands like Necrophagist, then? Who use the same scales and structure as classical songs?
I've never really heard anyone use another word for it; if you want to be technically correct then it'd be something like "hfusion between classical melodies and death metal". Just continue to use neo-classical, it might not be technically correct but everyone will know what you mean; only people who are really anal like me bother about people using it like that.

Favourite DM guitarist is a hard question, I'd probably go with Chuck though.

[br3ad_man]

Neo classical means taking ideas from classical music and putting it to use in a modern context.

That could mean anything from Necrophagist to Stravinsky.

[Ad Absurdum]

Maybe I'm just too nazi with my genre classifications, but I've always went by the definition I learned for neo-classical. Basically, think of the old classical melodies as the building blocks for the music, and the irregular metres, polyrhythms, more complex harmony, use of dissonance (especially tritones) to give these melodies a new feel while maintaning a slight similarity to the original. I wouldn't really bring Necrophagist etc. under this classification, but maybe that's just me.

[RCA]

In your opinion, who is the best DM guitarist?

Martin Halfdan was really good when he was in Necrophobic, but I'm going with Terrance Hobbs of Suffocation. He blew me away when I saw them at Wacken last month.

Necrophagist use all of those! Irregular time sigs, polyrhythms, complex harmony and dissonances.

[Per Ardua Ad Astra]

There's no such thing as a #7, that would be the 1.

Yes, it was late when i made my post so i was tired. My post was referring to the #7 in the natural minor scale which would be just the natural major 7. My fault for being unclear.

[manuscriptreplica]

It's all good, it confuses me sometimes. my lecturer at uni has the right idea, he either calls it a b7 or a major 7. That seems to remove confusion.

[Ad Absurdum]

Necrophagist use all of those! Irregular time sigs, polyrhythms, complex harmony and dissonances.
Hmm, good point. I'm too close-minded for my own good :upset:

[Arucard]

My faverouite guitarist is James Malone. His melodies, solos and rythmic paterns blow me away.

[Bartender]

I've no idea who I'd say my favourite death metal guitarist is, so I won't.

Does anyone know if Prostitute Disfigurement, Visceral Bleeding or Wykked Wytch are any good?

[Lord Abortion]

Prostitute disfigurement were on the bill at the London Deathfest this year along with Cancer and Gorerotted. I wish I could have gone, though Cancer aren't exactly brilliant.
And Wykked Wytch recently supported Carpathian forest in london.
they were **** apparently.

[Stoic]

I've no idea who I'd say my favourite death metal guitarist is, so I won't.

Does anyone know if Prostitute Disfigurement, Visceral Bleeding or Wykked Wytch are any good?

Visceral Bleeding are quite enjoyable and better than your average brutal death band. I haven't listened to anything off their newest album though.

[Terrorzone]

I know they aren't completly death metal but, what would be the best My Dying Bride cd. I just got a best of and I really like it.

[Ad Absurdum]

Just got back from my first ever death metal gig, really enjoyed myself :D

The lineup was Sons Of Slaughter/Incantation/Nile, all the bands were good. Sons Of Slaughter were pretty cool to see live because I know the guitarist from the band the formed after the split of. They had some tapping in their riffs and stuff which was a nice touch but they were pretty one-sided. Incantation were absolutely awesome, they had a nice mix of fast death metal and slow death metal. Nile were definately on a hit tonight, I really enjoyed their set; especially when they played 'User-Maat-Re' followed by 'The Burning Pits of the Duat'.

Sorry if I made alot of typing mistakes there, I'm still pretty drunk. You have no idea how hard it was for me to type the address for this forum :p

[br3ad_man]

I know they aren't completly death metal but, what would be the best My Dying Bride cd. I just got a best of and I really like it.

34.788% Complete is a good experimental one. Songs of Darkness, Words of Light is probably their best.

[Freezing Moon]

I know they aren't completly death metal but, what would be the best My Dying Bride cd. I just got a best of and I really like it.

Turn Loose the Swans or The Light At the End of the World judging by what I've heard from them.

[the2stranger]

do you like the best of thing?
is it the 3 cd box?
I thought about buying it.

well as far as my favorite cd: The Angel and The Dark River.
nice Epic songs (esp. the first)
and they still have violin there :)

[br3ad_man]

Their keyboard chick is pretty good looking.

[Terrorzone]

I have Meisterwerk 1. So far I'm liking Symphnaire Infernus Et Spera Empyrium and Crown of Sympathy most.

[Slapping Penguin]

I dont have a favourite guitarist and dom...the drums seem to me even more difficult and I live in a flat

Stoic seriously give em a try. The drums are difflcult at first for even the best drummers but I think it is easier to feel your progessing on drums. If not then take up Keyboards move Australia form a band with me because I am going to write keyboard lines to my songs.

Necrophagist I think is not Neoclassical but defintely classicaly influenced. I just don't think it classical enough for Neoclassical but yes defintely classical influenced. Necrophagist \m/

[Bartender]

Supernal seem to have stopped stocking Destroyer 666. I'm disappointed.

Also, I just re-listened to Immortal's At the Heart of Winter for the first time in a long time. I'd forgotten how much I liked it.

[Slapping Penguin]

Destroyer 666 That is possibly the worst band name ever.

[One Step Beyond]

Winds = neo classical

Necrophgist = classicaly influenced technical death

I think.

[Bartender]

That is possibly the worst band name ever.

There's an umlaut over the o, too.

[Slapping Penguin]

umlaut. I am assuming that some werid symbol. Yes I changed my mind worst band name ever. Death is pretty bad too.

Is it just me or in Freezing Moons avatar Spiderman is in the backround sneking up on a leper? Mmm avatars these days.

[Bartender]

Deströyer 666.

^Like that.

[Slapping Penguin]

Yep I thought so they are from Australia aren't they my homeland. Disgrace

[Terrorzone]

Who cares what their name is. They are awesome.

[br3ad_man]

The thing I like about At The Heart of Winter is those clean sections, especially in "Solarfall".

[Lord Abortion]

I don't know whether I like pure holocaust or at the heart of winter better.

Hmm...

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Yep I thought so they are from Australia aren't they my homeland. Disgrace
Nah.

Even if the name is a little cheesy, they still ****ing own.

[SomeGuySomewhere]

I don't know whether I like pure holocaust or at the heart of winter better.

Hmm...

I love both albums, but I'm more in the mood for At The Heart of Winter over Pure Holocaust on average. Have you heard about Abbath's Motorhead tribute band?

[Lord Abortion]

No?
it sounds awesome though.

NP-morbid angel-suffocation

[superpeer]

Has anyone heard the new Hypocrisy? I heard some of what I think was their new album and it was freaking awesome. It had synths and stuff.

If you're talking about the arrival, then yeah, I have it. It's pretty good, the synths are a nice touch. Can get a bit one sided, but still a fairly good album.

[br3ad_man]

The song I heard was awesome...the dude didn't say it what song it was though.

[LeperAffinity]

Yep I thought so they are from Australia aren't they my homeland. Disgrace
Because of the name? I'd be proud to have such an excellent band from my native country(if not for their racist beliefs). A name means nothing, it's all about the music.

[Slapping Penguin]

Guys don't take it too seriously, it was tongue in cheek coment like most of mine. I was just mucking about.

[Daven]

Hey, con someone recommend me a band that sounds like Behemoth. I've been looking for one but i just cant find. Thx

[Slapping Penguin]

Fellas what is Folk Metal, what defines it. I mean I have two supposed Folk Metal downloads Halgadom - Holy War and Finntroll - Minattenes Widunder. What defines Folk Metal, because to me Finntroll just sounds like COB, power metal with harsh vocals and Halgadom well i don't really know what to call it but I fail to see how it is Folkie. Can someone explain to me.

[slaughteredfirst]

Zyklon are sort of the death/black metal thing.



Have you seen the Slaves shall serve video yet?

That is possibly the worst band name ever.

Destroyer 666's music is amazing beyond your pathetic comprehension, child.

Listen to Trollhammaren by Finntroll and you will see the difference.

[One Step Beyond]

Ok, I am watching Headbanger's Ball on MTV right now, and I have a question. War King Diamond meant to be a joke band or did they seriously think they looked and sounded evil? 'Cause I'm watching one of their videos and it is possibly the stupidest thing I have ever seen.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

King Diamond aren't a joke band.

King Diamond > *

'Tender - AtHoW is by far my favorite Immortal album. I don't know if it's because it's more progressive or has got a better production quality but to me it just does the trick whereas other Immortal tends to annoy me.

I say one more retarded comment from Gates of Retardation and he's banned. He'snever said a single helpful thing or even not hostile thing in this thread.

Not to ruin your rant or anything, but I speak to him on MSN and slsk occasionally, and he likes alot of good music.

[black\m/metal]

Off topic, yet Nattfodd by finntroll is an amazing album.

[The Gates Of Heaven]

Burn.
Did he really say Arcturus and Opeth suck?
And if he rads this, why do you think they suck?

Opeth are boring, there songs are longer than they need to be, and if I wished for harmony in my music there are plenty of better bands. Arcturus, I just don't like. No particular reason, just not my cup of tea.

I don't remember Legions Of Marduk shutting me up once. I remember arguing with him, hahahaha.

[One Step Beyond]

Opeth are boring to you, but that is just an opinion. I have never been bored by them. I could hear the same songs thousands of times and they never get old.

[GnOm]

I listen most to black metal, but i listen to some death metal too

Myrkskog
Nile
Cannibal Corpse

not very much :P

[One Step Beyond]

Myrkskog and Nile are amazing. I could never really get into the brutal gore bands though.

[Slapping Penguin]

Not to ruin your rant or anything, but I speak to him on MSN and slsk occasionally, and he likes alot of good music.

Thats fine if I am wrong there then I accept that but you know he mocked me I never provoked him, mabye if he showed he could be nice then I could show a bit of respect back.

Opeth are boring, there songs are longer than they need to be, and if I wished for harmony in my music there are plenty of better bands. Arcturus, I just don't like. No particular reason, just not my cup of tea.

Thats fine each to his own I say but just I remember you quite heavy bagging them. If you don't like them thats fine but please just don't act like an metal elitist twat. Show some respect you get some back.

Pure Holocaust is my favourite, but for the reasons you like AtHoW. :p

[Slapping Penguin]

I heard on a tab program a song by Immortal called Withstand the Fall of Time the tab itself sounded pretty catchy.

[Ad Absurdum]

I lik Pure Holocaust the most aswell, although I'm not a huge fan of any Immortal to be honest. Pure Holocaust does however contain the best ever piece of lyrical work known to man - "I'm a demon, a demon with a shadowed face, entering to my wintercoffin".

[Deathcrush]

That was the shittiest attempt at owning someone I have ever seen. I won't even bother dissecting and destroying each statement you made piece by piece. The only sentence in your incoherent jumble of words that is remotely true/relevent/non-totally-presumptious is:


You can like Metal dickhead and not be a complete arse wipe.

You should have posted that sentence on its own, rather than surround it with a grammatical holocaust.

[Slapping Penguin]

Mate shut up, you used to be cool. Everyone else thought it burnt him hard. What was honstely what was the point to post that. What to piss me off. Good reason..... Just because he might be one of your chums doesn't mean he didn't act like a twit. You can't talk Deathcrush, god did I go that Killswitch Engage and say "that agrument sucked" no I didn't. Instead I said "who cares" meaning the idiots attacking you. There is no point to your post than other to just annoy people. So what my spelling and grammar was wrong, I was angry.

Your not perfect your self :angry:

[Deathcrush]

I'm not saying I am, and I'm not saying my friend doesn't need to change his attitude if he wants any respect on these forums, I'm just saying that what you posted is the sort of thing that you find posted by someone who is under the influence of alcohol.

[Slapping Penguin]

Okay then if you really thought it was that bad then I refain from it doing it again but he just pissed me off to far.

[Ad Absurdum]

I say one more retarded comment from Gates of Retardation and he's banned. He'snever said a single helpful thing or even not hostile thing in this thread.

[br3ad_man]

Yeah I think that's what it was.

[Deathcrush]

I like it because of the guitars. Such luvverly guitars.

The only thing 'worthy' about that album is the atmosphere, in my opinion; the guitars, well yeah some good riffs here and there, but they get old and redundant pretty quickly; and Abbath's vocals - hahahahahahaha!

Popeye the grim ****ing sailor man!

[Stoic]

"I'm a demon, a demon with a shadowed face, entering to my wintercoffin".

People say that alot.
And I can understand the Arcturus thing.

I don't really see why many people hate you :/
Just like the whole Dargon thing. I never got that, I thought he was pretty cool, except for the whole "Death To Posers" thing.

[Dancin' Man]

By the way: Marduk Question:

Heaven shall burn... when we are gathered (€6.99)

or

Those of the Unlight.

And to all - Abbath's vocals = funniest vocals ever.

Dargon was a dick but he and I got along just fine, even though I like music he hated. I think it was because I usually had an open mind and was willing to listen to anything. \m/ Wormed

[the2stranger]

the lyrical theme of Marduk, that is so obvious in every song really turns me of.
I don't care if a band is satanic or writes satanic lyrics, but these guys push it a bit too far for my tastes

I have Le Grande Danse Macabre, is it considered any good by Marduk fans?
I never listened to it all that much

[Lord Abortion]

Calm down, guys. We're all peaceful satan worshippers here, we all like to impale pig heads, so let's be friends, aight?
If I ever saw Maniac, I'd probably either worship him cause he fronted Mayhem, or kick him in the balls for not being able to write songs...
He sang the old stuff OK though...not as good as Atilla or Dead, but alright.

[Magicaltroll]

What's a good Mayhem album to get with Dead singing?

[Ad Absurdum]

What's a good Mayhem album to get with Dead singing?
Live In Leipzig

[Magicaltroll]

Thanks.
Man, I checked out Destroyer 666's "Cold Steel For An Iron Age". Awesome stuff. Kinda progressive. Kinda reminds me of my band, the song writing style. But they do it alot better. But you probably knew that :p

[Bartender]

Cold Steel For An Iron Age is the album I have, and I likes it. I was going to order some more, but as you may have read, the webstore I planned on ordering from is suddenly no longer stocking them.

Apparently they have an EP called ..Of Wolves, Women and War, which I rather want to hear just based on the name.

[LegionsofMarduk]

By the way: Marduk Question:

Heaven shall burn... when we are gathered (€6.99)

or

Those of the unlight (€9.99) ?

Those Of The Unlight. But they're two totally different sounds. Those Of The Unlight is more "old school", a bit more atmospheric. Heaven Shall Burn is all out fast, aggressive, balls-to-the-wall stuff to listen to when you're pissed and want something to match your mood.

I have Le Grande Danse Macabre, is it considered any good by Marduk fans?
I never listened to it all that much

It's ok. It's a lot better than Panzer Division. The songs are much better written. If I had to rate it I'd probably say it's about a 7-7.5/10.

What's a good Mayhem album to get with Dead singing?

If you can find it anywhere, get Out From The Dark. Or download it...whatever.

[Magicaltroll]

I searched Destroyer 666 on soulseek, and first thing that came up is Of Wolves Women And War :p
Bartender, want me to send it to you if I get it?

[craggyisland]

Bartender, if you're trying to order from Supernal and have only looked on the website, call them to see if they still have it. I had the same problem with the Arghoslent CD I bought (it wasn't listed on the website, but in fact they did have it). Apparently they made some changes to the website and some CDs did not appear there after the changes took place, or something. Anyway, check with them first, they may have it.

[Bartender]

I hope that is what's happened. Destroyer 666, Hollenthon and a few others are gone..it's not just an album though, it's a whole artist missing. Maybe it's the same thing.

magicaltroll - if you have time, then you might as well upload it. I'm not that bothered at the moment though, so don't put yourself out. Thanks, though :)

Mostly rap/hip hop when it comes to lyrical styles, though.

I second that. At least Iowa has a few good tracks. "The Subliminal Verses" is really the first time they've really put together a good album, which threatens a lot of people who wrote the band off as mere bull****.

That's why the last year or two since that album came out we've seen so much debate about Slipknot on the internet. The old fans like the newest album because it kicks arse, as well as winning a whole legion of new fans.

They're doing two, one on saturday and one on sunday. I live right near the gaelic club so I know some of the guys that work there.

[HappyMarshmellow]

Me too. And I'm saying the reason their old stuff's got some serious attention paid to it is because the new stuff kicks arse so much.The old stuff was immature bull****.

Yeah, I dig it anyway. I'm not a very mature person, I can chill out sometimes and just listen to stupid stuff like that.

I'm so high that I'm hearing voices right now. Whoa.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

The first one isn't sold out, but the second one is.
I'm buying my ticket to the first one tomorrow.

[Jasarn]

I'm buying my ticket to the first one tomorrow.

Ditto.

Bit expensive though, $45...

It's the other way around for me.
The music was better back then in my opinion. Lyrics have always been kinda crap.

What are you on?

Just cannabis, but it's very potent stuff.

[Magicaltroll]

Interesting.
That's the only time I've heard of that happening.

[HappyMarshmellow]

It happens all the time. Auditory hallucinations, I've got a friend that gets them too.

It's just small stuff like hearing someone scream your name or keys jingle or something primal like that.

[Magicaltroll]

I used to get that when I was little.
I'd love to get that again. It was cool.

[HappyMarshmellow]

It's kind of creepy, really. I'm also seeing stuff in the corner of my eyes, and I'm a little paranoid.

[br3ad_man]

Man, you Sydney people get an all ages Nile gig. I doubt we will. I might ask my parents if we can go on a holiday in early december :)

Where's the gig?

Where do you live?

[br3ad_man]

The Sydney one is at the Gaelic club. I live on the Gold Coast and the Brisbane gig will most likely be at The Arena.

To start some more DM discusion, last time someone asked favorite guitarest this time Bassist. A DM bass player I highly respect is Jon Levasseur, his bass lines for Cyptopsy are beyond great. Also I don't know his name but Necrophagist's bass player is amazing just listen to the intro of Only Ashes Remain.

Are Nile coming to Canberra?

[The Gates Of Heaven]

I heard Nile are coming to Melbourne. If it was a year or two ago, I might have gone to see them.

I knew you couldn't resist. :lol:

And to do with DM, I don't really know many DM bass players.

[The Gates Of Heaven]

Any fans of Necrony here? If so, anybody have their full length? Can't find it anywhere. I'll trade you the demo Sever Malignant Pustle for it if you have it.

[Slapping Penguin]

I knew you couldn't resist.

Well unfortuanely I hardly know them but as I have become a Death Metal fan I would love to go to a DM show.

And get stabbed and sacrificed while drinking goats blood and getting eaten by demons.

[The Gates Of Heaven]

Shut up faggot.

[Magicaltroll]

Shut up large bundle of sticks.
Wtf?

And how are Death Metal shows? I've never been to one, so is it really as bad as some people make it out to be?

[Jasarn]

Shut up large bundle of sticks.

Joke...

[Freezing Moon]

Joke...

Overdone and not funny.

[Slapping Penguin]

Well personally a good coke with a Subway or Ali Baba does me.

Fagot by any chance?

[br3ad_man]

I'd like to know as well. I'm going to a metalcore gig in a couple of weeks which will be my first heavy gig (unless you count the Blood Brothers). I'll go to a metal festival next May which is only Australian bands but it should have Psycroptic.

[Turbonegro]

Ive never been to a death metal gig, the heavyiest band ive seen live is Lamb Of God. But i am seeing Nile tonight :D:D:D, Decapitated soon and Deicide. Great year for gigs in the UK :P

[br3ad_man]

Nice. Let us know how Nile are because I might see them this year. Sometimes I've heard they're good and other times I've heard they're not so good.

Nile are one of my favorite bands and with there new album 'Annihilation of the Wicked' should be awsome. Ill tell everyone how the gig went, thats if im not paralyzed. Suffocation and Kastrated are apparently supporting but i dont really like them.

[br3ad_man]

Suffocation are pretty good man, you might like them more after you see them live.

[Bartender]

The last time Nile played in my near me, I couldn't go. I heard later that a few people had to be either taken to hospital, or at least checked out by paramedics, after the show.

Also I don't know his name but Necrophagist's bass player is amazing just listen to the intro of Only Ashes Remain.

Stefan Fimmers, I think his name is.

[Squirrel]

Sup guys ?


In the Technical Heavy Metal thread, someone posted some links to songs and videos - one labels itself as WOC in winamp - anyone able to tell me what band this is ?#

Would that be Nile with Dying Fetus and Necrophagist ?

Necro then pulled out ?

It was necrophagist and my quick time couldnt open any of them :(

[Squirrel]

No it wasnt necro :(

I can upload this if you'd like ?

[Bartender]

What for?

The place was really small, so some people had chest pains/ear pains from the volume of the music, and apparently the crowd was very violent - not in a nasty way, but a few (three or so) people got various bits of themselves stood on, or cut, or something. The most serious lasting injury was that a guy had his shirt torn, though. Nothing serious.

Ah, no. That was near me, but near me in Leeds; I meant near me in Newcastle. The one I'm thinking of was December 2001, I think.

[the2stranger]

good day from school this is
first day
/pukes

I might be going to a Nile, Behemoth gig soon :0

[Squirrel]

I'm going to Newcastle uni.

[Bartender]

Nice. (Good) Gigs usually seem to be few and far between around Newcastle, though :-/

What are you studying/will you be studying?

[Squirrel]

Biology :)

What is it you do ?

[Bartender]

Philosophy, at Leeds. For no good reason other than to try living away from home.

[Squirrel]

Heh, that bad ey.

Stefan Fimmers' credits Billy Sheehan as his inspiration, which is probably why he can tap so ridiculously good.
