Some Favorite Songs
These are just a few, in no particular order save for number 1. |
1 | The Black Dahlia Murder Miasma
It is my opinion that this is the best song they have written. It creates an atmosphere and carries it through the whole song. I love it. |
2 | Cryptopsy Cold Hate, Warm Blood
I just like this one. If you don't, tough. |
3 | Carcass Blind Bleeding the Blind
The riff that drives this song is just plain bad ass, and as disjointed as the lyrics may seem at first glance, I think they fit well with the song. The dueling guitar parts during the leads was cool. |
4 | The Acacia Strain Demolisher
This song is extremely simplistic, however, it is aptly named. It accomplishes what I think most Acacia Strain songs are supposed to do, demolish your speakers, demolish your ears, and demolish your face. |
5 | Nevermore Never Purify
One of the better songs off of Enemies that wasn't a single, as far as I know. As a result, it was a song I liked that was still fresh to me when I picked up the album. |
6 | Dry Kill Logic Neither Here Nor Missed
I tend to like this band when they're not attempting to be heavy. They have a good sound on their more mellow songs I think. I really wasn't impressed with Vengeance and Violence. |
7 | Glassjaw Ape Dos Mil
I think most of this album was very solid, however, this track caught my ear in particular. |
8 | Ion Dissonance She's Strychnine
This song is of interest to me because it maintains the harsh sound I usually associate with this band but does a good job of adding groove without falling into the Meshuggah worshiping riffage they went with on Minus the Herd. |
9 | Meshuggah Vanished
Speaking of Meshuggah...This is probably my favorite song by them. Pre-Nothing era. All the lead parts were awesome in this song. This was back when the band didn't write a solo just because it was in an odd mode for a metal song. Seriously, if you don't have Destroy Erase Improve, at least check out this song. It runs the gamut of Meshuggah's sound. |
10 | Metallica Damage Inc.
This was a pissed off song. I don't think I have to say anything else. |
11 | Pulse Ultra Slip in Sin
I miss these guys. All the members of the band have their own projects, but Pulse Ultra were a strong band with an awesome sound. This song was a standout in my opinion. |
12 | After the Burial A Vicious Reforming of Features
This song sounds like it could have been on Nothing or Obzen. I know I talked about Meshuggah worship earlier, but I like this song. |
13 | All Shall Perish Prisoner of War
This is another song that sets a mood. The band chose a direction for the sound on this song and stuck with it. It stands completely apart from the rest of the music on this album |
14 | The Black Dahlia Murder I'm Charming
Heh, this song has better drumming I think, than the whole of Nocturnal. At least, it sounds more interesting than the endless sorta blasts on Nocturnal. |
15 | Behemoth Slaying the Prophets of Isa
Best song on the album. All the pieces fit here, and the Choir parts are an awesome touch. |
