 | brainmelter i shall check new MD today, wasnt crazy about their last one but it was solid
|
 | Get Low Re: your question about the evidence of assault in the DGD news thread - The only evidence is an apology tweet he made to the accuser (spookypooky8 on Reddit) which a lot of people have taken as an admission of guilt. Otherwise it's just the accusers word vs. the accused, which it tends to be in these situations.
|
 | Minortimbo12 Your nomination will be in Mini Sput Royale, I just asked if you could keep it family friendly
|
 | DePlazz https://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/85336/Soreption-Jord/
|
 | Veldin Wow the new oM is very interesting. Was wondering on your initial thoughts??
|
 | TheNotrap Yeah, it's awesome. I expect to drop the review today.
|
 | DavidYowi I was in the back for GOG, right in front of the stage for Pyrrhon and Imperial Triumphant. I thought GOG was pretty cool, they have a sound they could really develop. Loved both Pyrrhon and Imp Triumph, but ur right about the acoustics, especially wrt the vocals
|
| DavidYowi I?m glad you had fun! What u think of the bands?
|
| DavidYowi Hey dude! You said you were interested in meeting up at the Imperial Triumphant show in Boston?
|
| brainmelter hell yea, hopefully it comes out within the next couple of years lol
|
| brainmelter yooooo so I thought they were extinct.. https://extremeviolence.bandcamp.com/album/unearthing-the-abomination
|
| brainmelter I just heard Extreme Violence too and that s*** blew my mind. what a hidden gem
|
 | evilford Hey just reading thru some old threads/lists I noticed I was a dick to you a couple times for no real reason. Probably thought I was being cool. Anyways, sorry about that, I don't like running across places in time when I was an asshole. Trying to be the chillest version of myself, even on sput. I'm sure you didn't take it personally or care much at all anyways, you seem like the type of guy who takes no s*** and gives no ****s. But on the off chance you cared at all, I apologize
|
| brainmelter oh s*** didn?t even notice new disavowed till I saw your dig going to czech
|
| brainmelter yea psalms is still their best but this is like top 3 DS prob. Entity Dissolving Entity is so nut worthy, so many sick riffs on this thing. Gruber did such an amazing job
|
| brainmelter honestly dont know how it will stack up for you but without giving too much away, its like a combination of passages and psalms with a splash of dharmata while having arguably the best prod they have ever had
|
| brainmelter Hell yea baybee its soo good best brutal death this year easy
|
 | chemicalmarriage Hey man just droppin a line to let you know that you're ****in awesome. You're lists are the s***. Thanks for putting it out there, cheers bro.
|
| brainmelter nah the album leaked extremely early.. but if you?re going to wait for official release thats cool. im a punk ass that couldnt wait and its just amazing
|
 | parksungjoon timestamped cuz the vid has a really long stupid intro. thoughts? https://youtu.be/VfZJej9A9dM?t=45
|
 | Voivod Time is not importart my friend, and yes Parkcrest's sophomore album is huge, and it's all the more enthralling that their debut was no solid indication about its successor.
|
| Voivod Happy holidays man, you need to hear this - https://parkcrestthrash.bandcamp.com/album/and-that-blue-will-turn-to-red
|
| brainmelter the hype for a decade of brutality pt.2 has begun
|
 | SandwichBubble I have to apologize for this, but could you rerate the Hollywood Brats? Your rating wasd in a misunderstanding in the Meds thread | https://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=284412 | again sorry!
|
| Veldin haha, yeah that makes a lot more sense ;) Hey, this wasn't in the Sput database, so I just added it. Really good performances, so in case you haven't jammed before: http://www.daytrotter.com/of-montreal/pabst-theater-september-24-2010.html
|
| Veldin Thank you! That helps a lot. I'm making a playlist for Of Montreal's discography to include all related b-sides, outtakes and singles in chronological order. I was wondering though, you said "Alter Eagle" is Skeletal Lamping (08), but he mentions something about going to see Clash of the Titans which is a film from ('10), so I think it might be False Priest? but there is a demo of alter eagle, so maybe this version is a new version from the Skeletal Lamping demo? Again, thanks for all your help!
|
| Veldin hey there! would you mind explaining Daughter of Cloud, like what years the songs are from? I can pinpoint "our love is senile" (hissing fauna), "microuniversity" (hissing fauna), "georgie's lament" (skeletal lamping), "feminine effects" (this is new, but original from skeletal lamping), but i'm really curious what periods the other, many songs are from. your soundoff states that several are outtakes from thecontrollersphere EP? thanks!
|
 | iamaviate It's desperatly in need of a redesign tho :/
|
| iamaviate Yah same here. I'm glad I get to listen to so much music at work and Spotify makes discovery super easy. I'm also amazed how Sputnik is still so active tbh
|
| iamaviate I'm doing fine, hbu? Wasn't expecting you to be active around here anymore, it's been quite a while :D
|
| iamaviate Hey Ant, Akira here from Kami if you remember me at all. Just droppin by to say "Hai" ^_^
|
| Voivod Hi man, i think that you would dig this a lot - https://wombripper.bandcamp.com/album/from-the-depths-of-flesh
|
 | VaxXi there's something deliciously ironic about chuck saying you dont need to act like a typical lowly internert forum cringe lord
|
| evilford I hope you know I've been ****ing w/ you this entire time
|
 | Astral Abortis New SoP demo snippet, new material hopefully 2018? Sounds great: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYcrjaeUed8
|
| Voivod Check this out and let me know what you think, imho it's nothing new under the sun in terms of death metal, but its spite is missing from most dm releases - http://foetaljuice.bandcamp.com/album/masters-of-absurdity
|
 | Jots by reviewing albums I do like
|
| brainmelter thats sweet man, I have no idea what track that could have been tbh. Who else did ya see them with? Have you heard the new one yet? I'm getting mixed results from friends so far. I didnt like their last one too much. Out of the three singles, I like Night Ride the most.
|
| brainmelter the growlers are great, their live performance is pretty impeccable. sounds like album quality and they're just a great time to watch. they played 'burdern of the captain' both times I saw them (my personal fave) I think they play a lot from Hung at Heart and Gilded Pleasures. but yeah you're gonna love em! the vocalist is always a pleasure to see perform
|
| brainmelter awe yissssssssss. thanks for all the recs man, you the real mvp. I only actually know a handful of the recs you gave me so kudos! and theres so many:D you win the brutal death award
|
 | Crawl I don't think it's that great either. The first half is sweet, but it just drags too much in the second. It should be trimmed by at least 3 songs.
|
| Crawl What do you think of Innocence Reaches?
|
 | iloveyouall it's ****ing weird, yeah, but at least they DO release stuff on a semi-consistent basis. tbh, it's probably good it takes so long too. an inundation of the stuff would kill my love for the genre.
|
| iloveyouall new internal suffering on june 24th. mark the date.
|
| Voivod you really need to check this out - http://ghastlymusick.bandcamp.com/album/ternion-demonarchy
|
| Voivod Hi man, I found this death metal debut to be extremely solid, let me know what your think - http://constructoflethe.bandcamp.com/album/corpsegod
|
 | insanedrexl1 Thanks, will check it out. I hope it indeed burns like a buzzsaw blade.
|
| insanedrexl1 Yeah. Hopefully they don't pull a Brutus and announce a new album 6 years from now and then release it 12 years later.
|
| insanedrexl1 I agree. I found it to be slightly above their last album. Hopefully they just go uphill from here.
|
| insanedrexl1 Are you planning on hearing Inherit Disease's new album soon?
|
 | random Oi. I notice you like Kylie Minogue. She's a gay icon down in Australia, but up here in North America (I live in Canada, specifically) she's only known for "Can't Get You Outta My Head".
|
 | BigBalls Nah, man, facebook is all I got.
|
| insanedrexl1 Thanks will do. The name alone makes me want to hear it.
|
 | GmemberKills What makes it good? Your join date seems better, always cool to see members that have been around awhile.
|
 | Titan great soundoff on the Blackstar thread man.....bumped hard
|
| insanedrexl1 Agreed. Feels almost like a double album since it's unusually long for a brutal death album.
|
| Voivod Hi man, I see that you have an affinity towards checking out everything that's death metal, so I may have a treat for you - http://degial.bandcamp.com/album/savage-mutiny
|
| insanedrexl1 Thanks. Haven't heard any good brutal death in a while so I will check them out as soon as possible.
|
| insanedrexl1 Agreed. Played through Super Metroid for the first time about 3 months ago and it blew my mind. The soundtrack for Fusion has to be one of the creepiest ever. At least for a game that's supposed to be for a younger audience.
|
| insanedrexl1 The Metroid soundtracks have to be some of the best things ever.
|
 | Lord(e)Po)))ts yeah i figured u wouldnt like it as much as vega but still thought ud dig. its definitely not as vivacious but at the same time i find vega gets a little overbearing at times so thats both a good and a bad thing at the same time for me
|
| insanedrexl1 The only one I've heard that was more than slightly above average was Intravenous Contamination -Drowned in Human Fluids. Haven't heard that much more unfortunately :/
|
| Lord(e)Po)))ts yep they were decent but didnt really ~move~ me like this does. guess we got a review for it now at least
|
| Lord(e)Po)))ts what surprises me more than anything is that psychic chasms and era extrana got lots of exposure here, 169 and 288 ratings, reviews and all that, and Vega has pretty much been untouched in comparison. but at the same time it seems like sput has a tendency to get all hyped up on something if a staffer covers it and then when the artists next album comes out everyones forgotten about them because they only really checked out that first release for the sake of being part of the hype to begin with.
|
| Lord(e)Po)))ts aside from Annie I got to say Smut! (omfg that vocal melody for "in the eve of the summertime.." is just straight sex), Dear Skorpio, Slumlord, 61 Cygni and Babys Eyes are probably my favorite. FRAAANKKKIIIEEE straight up Roxanne vibes
|
| Lord(e)Po)))ts 'Annie' easy contender for one of my favourite songs of the year. glad i finally got around to VEGA. it will most likely be in my top 10. get on that George Clanton.
|
| insanedrexl1 Agreed. Turns out it is the album they were supposed to release on Unique Leader so hopefully it will be awesome.
|
| insanedrexl1 Supposedly Brutus are releasing a new album in 2016. I wonder if it is the album they were supposed to release a while ago or if it's a different one. Either way I can't ****ing wait.
|
 | porcupinetheater Yeah, it looks like it cut my comment off cause I threw and ampersand in there and ****ed up the format, so yeah, Behold "AND" See, Ultimate Spinach, one of my favorite psychedelic albums out there, on par with the best stuff by Can, for me personally.
|
| porcupinetheater Heads up, before you get over into your 1968 list, you should check the album Behold
|
| insanedrexl1 Really glad that you liked it. Every track is fantastic to me. Check Never, Neverland when you can. It's almost just as good.
|
| insanedrexl1 Sounds great. Also check out Asilent - Recalibrated Chaos, some great BDM from Singapore.
|
| insanedrexl1 Didn't even know they made a new album :P Will check it out as soon as it comes out.
|
| insanedrexl1 Thanks, will check it out as soon as I can. Although I said Alice In Hell is slightly better than Show No Mercy for me it's really like comparing apples and oranges since they are quite different from each other. See Alice In Hell as Noctambulant and Show No Mercy as Consume The Forsaken.
|
| insanedrexl1 Sounds good. To me it's the best thrash just edging out Show No Mercy.
|
| insanedrexl1 You need to listen to Alice In Hell. Has some of the best riffs I've ever heard.
|
| insanedrexl1 Agreed. U.S.A. and Holland are probably the two other greatest countries in brutal death. Though they have been pretty inactive lately so I'd say Indonesia is the best country.
|
| insanedrexl1 The bass sounds so good. Indonesia is easily one of the best countries when it comes to brutal death.
|
| insanedrexl1 Also, check out Goreality - Perverse Depraved Indifference if you haven't already. I remembered it as being pretty good.
|
| insanedrexl1 Cool, will definitely check it out if I can find it.
|
| insanedrexl1 I think it was Cannibal Corpse that made me like death metal, but Deeds of Flesh and None So Vile to a certain extent were the ones that made me love brutal death metal. And like you said, Deeds of Flesh are the best and probably the most underrated band in any genre.
|
| insanedrexl1 What was the album/albums that got you into brutal death in the first place?
|
| insanedrexl1 Thanks and yeah, brutal death metal is way too underrated around here. Probably because most people just think of it as slams and nothing else.
|
 | psandy agree 100%, I didn't even know he had anything coming out but i follow the dude who did the album artwork on Instagram and it really caught my eye. I dig the sound for sure, it calls to mind Multi Love.
|
| psandy thoughts on the new Neon Indian? it slaps so hard
|
 | MistaCrave Oh no, I think that the lyrics are great. That's not the problem, it's just the instrumentation for me. But each to their own, I guess.. I'll just leave it here, because clearly nothing that I say will change your mind. I respect your opinion, man, I just really wish that you could respect mine...
|
| MistaCrave Bro, not once did I trash on tech death bands. I'm saying that I personally like variety in my music and can't stand to listen to a nonstop wall of sound, consisting entirely of double bass and CHUGGACHUGGACHUGGA. And I'm not sure you what you don't understand about why I think it all sounds the same. Sure they change their riffs, but the tempo is constant. The drumming is the exact same. The riffs are only an extremely small portion of the whole, dude.
|
| MistaCrave And please understand the fact that I completely respect your opinion, and I'm not saying that you aren't entitled to enjoy bands like Nile. It's just that when you come in and tell me that my opinion is "wrong," I'll be happy to defend it and explain it to you.
|
| MistaCrave Ask 90% of metalheads who actually listen to bands other than the mainstream tech death bands, and I absolutely guarantee that they'll tell you how metal with varying paces is far superior to constant blast beats and chugging riffs. You say that it's bands like Nile who are pushing the boundaries of modern metal, but all they're doing is trying to play faster and more intricately than any other band out there. That, my friend, isn't what makes a metal band good.
|
| MistaCrave So... You're saying that you like Nile because they play ridiculously fast and never change their sound? I honestly don't see how you can bear listening to basically the same album, slightly tweaked, over and over. "Metal should be fast. Metal should be over technical." I'm sorry to say, but these two statements could not be farther from the truth.
|
| MistaCrave I agree that some of Sanders' riffs are good, but once you recycle the same formula album after album, it inevitably loses its value and appeal. Also, I never said that if something is technical than it's instantly bad. I love Gorguts, Death, Necrophagist, and a few other tech death bands. It's just that when something is so overly-technical that you have difficulty following it, it really has no personal appeal to me whatsoever. Thanks for your input though!
|
| insanedrexl1 Sweet, will definitely keep a lookout for it then.
|
| insanedrexl1 Does the new Nile riff the hardest of them all?
|
| random I see you're digging Nile.
|
 | Nimb49 Oooh, I better get on it then.
|
| Crawl Colossus is probably the weakest track on Lousy, but I still prefer the album over Aureate Gloom, because there's finally some sort of structure in the songs. It's something I don't require, but I think an album like that was necessary in oM discography. Fugitive Air, Obsidian Currents and Triumph of Disintegation are such jams.
|
| Crawl It seems like you're a massive of Montreal fan, and for the past few months they've been slowly becoming one of my favorites too. And I heard only their post-HF,ATD? work. How would you rank their albums? My ranking so far: 1. HF,ATD? 2. Paralytic 3. Lousy 4. False Priest 5. Aureate 6. Skeletal
|
| Nimb49 Thanks a bunch. I owe you one. :]
|
| Nimb49 s***'s insane. It seems as though that scene is dying out though... I don't think I've heard of any releases post-2010. Do you know of any recent releases in the scene? Or even just any good brutal death that's come out this year?
|
| Nimb49 I was just wondering. Not too many people on here listen to slam/brutal death. You know much about the colombian scene?
|
| Nimb49 You're sputnik's slam and brutal death aficionado right?
|
| insanedrexl1 Will do. And yeah, the new Bleeding Corpse rules hard. Probably the best BDM record of this year.
|
 | klap i put in a request sir
|
 | SanderCohen Bedside Drama is subjectively a 4.5, but Cherry Peel is more like a 3.8. Just missed their show three nights ago due to work. :(
|
 | Insurrection its listenable. the tracks are too repetitive imo, but im not that big on Bowie in the first place
|
 | wtferrothorn I listened to their latest album and it sounded pretty good. What other Of Montreal albums would you rec?
|
| wtferrothorn Holy s***. Over 23,000 plays of Of Montreal. That's quite the devotion; I gotta respect that.
|
 | AmericanFlagAsh I didn't even know it was released? I thought that was later this year.
|
| AmericanFlagAsh Now I'm curious about this kickstarter haha. You could have been sashaying in Kevin's robes!
|
| AmericanFlagAsh You can win clothes worn by Kevin: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/r-e-m-neutral-milk-hotel-donate-items-to-save-iconic-church-steeple-20141103
|
| Voivod Hi man, I recently came across this Austrian dm outfit and I think you will enjoy their last album - http://seduced666.bandcamp.com/
|
| AmericanFlagAsh It is not. I'm sorry to disappoint. I listened to False Priest once and really didn't like it so I was scared away from post Fauna stuff. (Which is amazing)
|
 | CWBrown Hey if I could ask a favor of you. Since I noticed your of montreal love, I also noticed your death metal love. I'm not exactly new to metal, but not exactly up to date either. Could you head me in the direction of the best dm albums of the last ten years possibly?
|
| AmericanFlagAsh That's true. They have a pretty big discog. I've only fully listened to like 5 albums.
|
| AmericanFlagAsh Kevin really is something.But I'm not sure I'll ever get that many scrobbles with one artist. That's amazing.
|
| insanedrexl1 Hey, have you ever heard the band Foul Body Autopsy?
|
| CWBrown You are one of few I have seen to give Paralytic Stalks the praise it deserves. Perfect album.
|
| Voivod Indeed, both bands are great! I recently came across two other great Greek dm bands, Crucifiction with a great 2010 album - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiqHXqrLNJs
|
| Voivod Hey, noticed you are in the brutal death metal thing, I think you will like Cease of Breeding, somehow they sound a tad better than the average brutal death metal band - http://amputatedveinrecords.bandcamp.com/album/sounds-of-disembowelment
|
| evilford thanks sir, I'm sure you have. wasn't really meant to be a super informative list but everything there I've listened to a lot and love and endorse as multiple-listen quality. shadow put up a ****in' death list too that got featured, lots of lesser known stuff in there. I'm gonna do one of those eventually with stuff that's actually not too well-known. I'm sure you know most of this s*** just figured I would throw some dm lists at you since you brought that up lol
|
| evilford http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=148564
|
| insanedrexl1 Yeah, my favorite is probably also Reduced to Ashes.
|
 | lancebramsay I wrote a review for the Demon Queen album. Check it.
|
| Veldin Do you happen to know what years Young Froth and Early Four Track Recordings are from?
|
| klap yeah i wouldn't say it's a progression either. maybe it just reminds me of his older stuff bc it's so removed from his last few records
|
| klap how bout that new of montreal? i'm liking it - sort of a throwback to some of his older stuff
|
 | Sleaper true, i agree. A good sadness is a pretty big experimental mess. definitely the weakest on it. Theres just so many cool influences in this album, im happy! (Mind you, i had almost no expectations for it), so that could be why im so surprised.
|
| Sleaper haha yeh.. its refreshing to hear something similar though. Vanwyngarden is certainly trying to imitate aveytares vocals in alot of tracks.. but thats fine with me!
|
| Sleaper yeh fair enough. I actually heard "I love you to death" first and was freaking amazed, it reminds me of some early ANCO stuff.
|
| Sleaper i think its psych pop..theres plenty of tracks that are catchy.. it reminds me of an experimental beatles. I really really like it haha. Your no fan?
|
 | Trebor. I look at your favorite bands, I look at all the indie threads you post in, 41% death metal, wut
|
 | reportingbird wow,never thought that i'll find someone who 5'd jasad.
|
| Veldin That's awesome! I've yet to see them live and unfortunately, they aren't coming to my state in the upcoming dates. The sound they're going for on Sylvianbriar is sweet, eh?
|
| Veldin New song from Lousy: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/of-montreal-fret-on-she-aint-speakin-now-song-premiere-20130813
|
 | AfricanCowboy its all good then, I can upload things to mediafire! Are you missing any thee oh sees albums I have them all.
|
| AfricanCowboy Do you have a dropbox by any chance? Its easier to trade music
|
 | Calc Good :] I'm not surprised you've heard of it. They are having a vinyl sale that's how I heard of them yesterday.
|
| Calc have you heard of Demon Queen?
|
 | bach Sorry to hear about your break, man.
|
 | Xenophanes Tough break bud. My guy and I are about to split too. Feels bad :(
|
| Veldin sending me a link to where I could dl the album. Like I stated before, if you don't want to, I completely understand.
|
| Veldin Howdy! Seeing as you're one of the biggest fans of Of Montreal on Sputnik, I was wondering if you'd be willing to 'hook me up' with "Coquelicot...". If not, I understand, just let me know. thanx
|
 | Wizard Tbqh, I thought you were just being a dick but I see the ways now. Sorry for the years of turmoil.
|
| Wizard "i'm aware it's exciting to people. do you not notice that i've been talking about that? i'm saying that excitement comes from an artificial place, i'm not talking about how real it feels."I have to give you props for that comment, couldn't have said it better myself about anything new this site gets it's hands on.
|
 | nofunman can you rec me god dm from 2012 please ill give you 3 dollars
|
 | BSX ke$ha friends!
|
 | Pestiferous That is one interesting as hell chart sweet
|
 | InvertTheInverted I was on the 'As Semen Blends With Rot' page and you mentioned that the album was cancelled. I wanted to know if you could shed any more light as to why this is? I really was looking forward to hearing if they had improved.
|
| klap make a post in the moderator forum, Jom will usually all of that when it's something obvious like that
|
| klap glad someone is listening to that new hot chip, i'm not a huge fan but it's really good. surprised it's flown under the radar here
|
