who has a rat face?

so hey, can someone tell me what makes gorguts good? I will say they're good musicians, but their style of music isn't really musicial at all. I know you'll say THATS THE POINT or some bullshit

but I hear little that actually sounds good from the new song. They try so damn hard and just create a bunch of avant-garde bullshit that you guys eat up because they're socially accepted on the internet.

the point is you rip on me listening to tech death you know nothing about, then go ahead and say gorguts is awesome. You guys really think I'm the one who knows nothing about death metal?

I like a handful of songs from obscura because they have actually hooks buried in the technical avant garde shit

stop saying fucking hooks, nobody in their right mind listens to death metal for "hooks"

page turned

yeah responded to that already

shut up about hooks in death metal, it's not like we're taking about fucking ashanti you queer

just got my first gorguts album (obscura) last week and though i know nothing about dm it didn't hold me all that much so :\. probably because i'm a dm noob.

personally if i'm going to listen to one of the big fucking names i'll go with onward to golgotha because i love how thick it is. anyone got similar recs to that? even if it's just that claustrophobic warpath feeling?

raspy recd me em.

Band rules. We need a full length.

if you weren't such a douchebag in putting forth your opinions this scoffing thing you hate so much wouldn't make for such a hostile arena

we all like different stuff most show a general respect for each others tastes, unless a n00b like you comes along and tries to make their reality everybody elses then you need to be whipped into shape, ridiculed into oblivion or ignored

get used to it

Whitechapel, Emmure, Disgorge, Defeated Sanity Tour 2011.

Sounds horrible.

We don't hate on music because it's a certain genre, it just happens that a large part of mainstream tech death is cookie cutter drivel that lacks distinctive riffs and sound that make death metal as a whole appealing.

Gorguts not only has a sound of their own but it's a creepy as fuck sound that has lots of intricacies and amazing riffs. I'll admit I don't like all their songs but their good stuff is some of the best in death metal, and like many other complicated bands it's also an acquired taste.

this is one of the most interesting death metal songs I've heard.

Gorguts isn't just music you can listen to on a shallow basis and immediately be impressed with the results, which is exactly what most tech death is. With Gorguts you have to actually listen carefully and hear what they're going for and then you realize that it's really cool and eerie, it's not just being impressed with how fast the guitars and fake triggered drums sound. This is why nobody takes Brents opinion on music seriously, he has no musical knowledge as to what makes music good for the most part, he just takes wanky shit at face value and refuses to branch out.

the fact that brent hears that Gorguts song as a "wall of overwhelming dissonance" or whatever he said is proof to this

Someone should recommend me a new album to download, haven't gotten some good death metal in awhile.

dragged into sunlight

Jake actually told me about them a few days ago and I got it, really good stuff.

I'm looking for more straight DM anyway.

luc - you're a jackass. Plain and simple (unlike the song structures of bands I listen to but assume thats what I listen to)l[/QUOTE]

I [i]know[/i] what you listen to.

mutant supremacy
primitive graven image
stargazer

@steve

Thanks bro I'll check em out, you're usually pretty reliable ;)

mutant supremacy is some croosh old school shit (they're a new band tho)
primitive graven image is like blackened death, kinda progressive
stargazer is progressive death stuff

get graveyard's new album steve

stargazer are pretty hit and miss
[QUOTE=adb;18421981]I like a few songs on Obscura, I've said this many times.[/QUOTE]
have you listened to any of their other albums? y/n
[QUOTE=adb;18422007][url]http://www.baringteethmetal.com/[/url][/QUOTE]
that's actually pretty cool. looking forward to the album now.

I've heard songs from other albums but didn't like

all I have to say is

you guys, you really need to understand how hilariously hypocritical you are. You rip my taste in music by attaching a negative connotation to "technical" when thats not in any way why I listen to it

then you go and say gorguts are awesome, the new song is great etc. It's a joke, a literal joke how you guys attach yourselves to bands that are socially accepted on the internet, and hate "tech death wank". Gorguts is absolutely tech death wank

and before you say it

sweeping isn't the only fucking way to discern technicality, just because they don't sweep does not mean Gorguts isn't wank.

I'll admit I'm close minded when it comes to music, but you guys need to as well. We have totally different tastes, the difference being I don't give a shit how elite or how much e-cred they get.

I get your explanations on WHY you like gorguts, but then be goddamn consistent. Don't say you like it for a similar reason why you bash the music I listen to.

Especially steve, you have no goddamn clue and think all tech death sounds like brain drill or something
