Chuck's voice on Live in LA isn't that great, in my opinion. They do play some of their better songs though.

How's the Death one? I've been looking to add it to my collection of DVDs. I'd say if the CD and DVD are identical, might as well own one >.>[/QUOTE]

The Death one is great :thumb:

I guess I should give a little review of it all. Death - Live.....I don't need to say anymore, it rules. Spriral Architect - Overly progressive and has no catchyness at all, but it makes for an intresting listen, because it's more technical than life itself. Demons and Wizard - It's alright, but the first was better. King Crimson - is....well it's alright, I was somewhat expecting something a bit different, it is from 1969 though. It's kinda hard to get into.

oh well..........I need more thrash, it's getting harder for me to get it

nontie69 08-16-2005 11:04 PM

hey guys can someone tell me some good testament cds i just barrowed there dvd of one of my buddies and it was awsome

Freezing Moon 08-16-2005 11:04 PM

Spiral Architect is far too much wankery for my liking, except when I'm in the mood for that kind of thing.

The bass arrangements and such are amazing though, there is no denying the extreme technicality of that album.

I checked out Xentrix a day or so ago and listened to it today, and it's excellent. :)

I know the feeling. Somehow, some way, it might just grow on you. Maybe not.

It depends how you accept the music. Treat it like a time capsule. That's what I did with my Destroyer 666 CD.

1969 though...hmm...60s rock :D

FatalEnergy 08-16-2005 11:16 PM

Yeah, The whole King Crimson album had 5 "songs", I would say only one was a song. The rest of it was like a guy that kept dropping his drum sticks and........that's about it. One song kept my attention, kind of sad

and that's coming from a guy who really digs Pink Floyd, so you know that the KC is really ....out there

Get [i]The Legacy[/i] and [i]The New Order[/i].

nontie69 08-17-2005 12:05 AM

o.k thanx ive downloaded some of there stuff fromthe album THE GATHERING it doesnt sound the same at but its pretty good i like DNR and True Believer

FatalEnergy 08-17-2005 12:09 AM

Stay away from Demonic....The Gathering isn't very good, and Low is mediocre. Everything else is pretty good IMO

RavenousMetalist87 08-17-2005 12:15 AM

Low > Demonic & The Gatherning

'nuff said :cool:

nontie69 08-17-2005 12:18 AM

so pretty much its all there old stuff thats better?

FatalEnergy 08-17-2005 12:18 AM

Yeah, Low was much better. It at least had a few good songs on it, while Demonic was pure [COLOR=white]s[/COLOR]hit, and The Gathering is wanna-be thrash. Nothing will ever beat "The Legacy".....and yes, I'm one of those few people that like "The Ritual"

RavenousMetalist87 08-17-2005 12:19 AM

[QUOTE=nontie69]so pretty much its all there old stuff thats better?[/QUOTE]

To me, yes.

Face thinks Low isn't so great when I think it is :angry:

That bass solo on track 9 pwns everything they've ever done! :cool:

It's not Bad! It's just not great, but...........yes, that intrumental is one of the best they've ever done. Greg Christian is/was under rated as a bassist

Alrighty then. Now I can sleep at night :lol:

I wonder where Greggie is anyways >.>

I might be staying in his home town next week if my mom and sister go up to the East Bay. Funny if I saw him walking around randomly.

FatalEnergy 08-17-2005 12:26 AM

He's actually in Testament right now, because they are still doing the reunion thing. I missed them twice within a week :angry:

Gah. That's one thing I wanted to see but didn't seem to have a way or place to see it.

nontie69 08-17-2005 12:35 AM

ah i really like there bass player hes pretty good

DisposableHeroes 08-17-2005 03:40 AM

I met him, very nice and approachable guy. He had his beard at the time and so he kinda reminded me of a muppets character :p I also met Skolnick, but thats another story.

In other news heres the first review of the new Exodus album

I have World Circus now \m/ man it rocks!

[QUOTE=Freezing Moon]Chuck's voice on Live in LA isn't that great, in my opinion. They do play some of their better songs though.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I noticed that his vocals kind of faded away from the Death element album after album. Symbolic I almost can't listen to cause his vocals pretty much suck in my opinion, but cause of the amazing musicianship it makes up for the bad vox.

Oh yeah, I bought Join The Army by Suicidal Tendancies today for a bargain $10AUS...it's alright, not really a great album. I like Rocky George though, he's a great Guitarist. It's not as good as Lights...Camera...Revolution. Miles off infact.

NP: Necrophagist - Only Ash Remains

Apocalyptic Raids 08-17-2005 08:03 AM

Yeah the vocals aren't great on [i]Live In LA[/i], although the main problem I have is the drums are too loud and the guitars are to quiet, and lack crunch.

And the snare tone sucked. I wish he would've done the growling on Zombie Ritual...

Can someone reccomend me some more brutal thrash? I can never get enough.

Well......that review was one in Exodus's favor, hopefully it's as good as the reviewer says it is.

RCA 08-17-2005 07:03 PM

I hope it is as well.

Next HoT: Possessed/Syzygial Miscreancy

Terrorzone 08-17-2005 07:18 PM

I'm praying.


RCA: Nice, for song suggestions might I suggest The Exorcist and Seven Churches.

RCA 08-17-2005 07:53 PM

Got it.

/me jots down song suggestions

Terrorzone 08-17-2005 07:57 PM

/Me thanks
How are Ripping Corpse y Dekapitator?

FatalEnergy 08-17-2005 07:57 PM

At least include one song off of [I]The Eyes of Horror[/I]. I would say "Swing of the Axe" or something, even though it dosen't matter much since they are all good.

RCA 08-17-2005 08:13 PM

[QUOTE=Terrorzone]/Me thanks
How are Ripping Corpse y Dekapitator?[/QUOTE]

Ripping Corpse = one hell of a death metal band, HIGHLY recommended to fans of old-school death and brutal thrash. I base my name off of them too, not just the Kreator song. :p

Dekapitator = Fun, fast thrash band. Grab [i]We Will Destroy...You Will Obey[/i] if you can find it (I reviewed this album on Sputnik and M-A). They've got a new album in the works.

[QUOTE=Face]Include something off of The Eyes Of Horror[/QUOTE]

What am I, a dolt? You'll definitely see something from that EP. I might even upload the whole thing! :D

Terrorzone 08-17-2005 08:15 PM

I shall aquire both then. Anyone heard of Voodoocult? They're line-up sounds too good to be true. Are they good?

RCA 08-17-2005 08:19 PM

The band with Mille, Dave, and Chuck? Can't say I have. :(

Terrorzone 08-17-2005 08:25 PM

I think I have to get it. No one has heard them.

RCA 08-17-2005 08:35 PM

[QUOTE=Terrorzone]I think I have to get it. No one has heard them.[/QUOTE]

Get it! Then upload a track or two for all of us to hear. :D

Terrorzone 08-17-2005 08:48 PM

Will do.
