I wasn’t aware of that inspiration behind Crystal Mountain… interesting! Bad neighbors are legit one of the worst things in life to deal with

Crystal Mountain is my fav track of the album and I always had shitty neighbours, so maybe there is some kind of synesthesia thing going on here haha

Band literally inspired me to buy a new guitar and start playing again after a very long hiatus. Trying to learn/practice a few of my favorite Death songs now and it's honestly the most fun I've had in ages.

That's the only Death song I know how to play from start to finish. I know a ton of Death riffs, but there's something about playing the whole song that feels so good.

Yea I'm trying to learn Crystal Mountain and I agree it's just so fun to play some of the riffs there

My favorite riff in that song to play is the "All the traps are set" little breakdown part, it feels so good. The solo is also manageable somehow. Takes a little practice and technique but one of the more doable of their discography

I went and looked up that little "breakdown" immediately after the solo in Low Life today. Such a simple yet sick sounding riff.
Getting that guitar tone that Chuck has on the guitar leads has been another challenge altogether though
|

t/t really do be one of those songs that slams a buncha spuriously related riffs against each other but it's all okay because they each repeat just enough to stick and the drums somehow knits the whole thing together
or maybe that's just dm for ya

This makes simultaneously less / more sense than most DM and arguably (is it?) borrows heavily from tech thrash anyway
Maybe that’s why it works? Regardless, it remembers to be fun despite the technical chops and Chuck’s memorable vox / iconic lyrics hold things together at times, even when the instrumentation feels like it’s in danger of collapsing in on itself

"arguably (is it?) borrows heavily from tech thrash anyway"
I'd say that's pretty much what it is outright.

I think the bass work's somewhat overlooked on this given DiGiorgio's presence on the prior two albums, the basslines on Sacred Serenity are excellent.

Zero Tolerance is far too coherent to be a tech thrash song lol, but yes I do hear this elsewhere
