 | Hawks It's like a mix of brutal death metal and black metal with horror movie themes and s*** like that. It's so good and I'm pretty sure you'd dig it.
|
 | ShadowRemains As Serenity Fades - Earthborn. Rather similar to Hypocrite
|
 | Xenophanes "Beneath" and "Destroyer of All" may be my favorite tracks, and for all the reasons I listed.
|
 | Xenophanes It's the dynamic shifts that get me. I mean, I hear people say how homogenic it is, but seriously, it's so full of ups and downs and such. Not to mention the atmosphere of the whole thing is absolutely wonderful. Perhaps I'm just a death metal 'noob,' but these are things that stuck out.
|
 | Xenophanes I look forward to it. I typically am indifferent to dm, but for some reason I can't stop listening to this. Probably because I enjoyed EiF as well.
|
 | Xenophanes waiting on your Ulcerate review brooooooooooo
|
 | Hawks Haha finally. Seems a lot longer than it actually was.
|
 | Hawks When the balls are you unbanned?
|
 | HSThomas I submitted the review before I saw your proofreading but thanks Crysis :).
|
 | Ire already got a lot of those a few days ago. i entered dryden
|
 | ShadowRemains adramelech - psychostasia, acrostichon - engraved in black, agressor - towards beyond, chemical breath - fatal exposure, chronic decay - justify your existence, cosmic atrophy - codex incubo, deathevokation - the chalice of ages, desecrator - subconscious release, funebre - children of the scorn, cenotaph - the gloomy reflections of our hidden sorrows, mastication - mastication, megaslaughter - calls from the beyond, necrophiliac - chaopula - citadel of mirrors
|
 | ShadowRemains if you like Stench of Decay and the like, you'll enjoy this: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/bands/Necropsy/24724/
|
 | R6Rider What did you get banned for?
|
 | Hawks Dammit I can't find it.
|
 | Hawks Where did you download the new Fen album from?
|
 | Willie Cool. I haven't heard their debut, but I think I'll avoid it. The clean vocals weren't bad and at least they kind of changed things up a bit, but they were definitely kind of whatever. My complaint is that all of the songs seem to be aimless (after one listen, anyway).
|
 | ShadowRemains not sure if you heard this, but it's another goodie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeGDhr_oIn4
|
 | ShadowRemains check this out if you haven't yet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJzdtapWbzs
|
 | ShadowRemains lets hope douches like butcheredchildren don't listen

|
 | Metalstyles I see you've got it all figured out, good, now it's time for actions.
|
 | Metalstyles You need to write an indie review bro, like, give it a 4.5, don't go for a 5 because that's too much, but a 4.5 will do. Also, you don't even need to like it, just blatantly lie, but make the lie a good one. Then you'll be staff in no time cuz everyone are going to be like "man Crysis is really stepping it up, look at the diversity!"
|
 | Metalstyles Thanks for the kind words but I still think I have room to improve ;). Anyway, Crysis for staff 2011 campaign is the one we should be concentrating on haha.
|
 | Metalstyles I did not apply because I simply feel I am not ready to be staff. My writing has a lot of development room and I wouldn't have wanted to become staff to be honest because I myself feel I definitely don't deserve it yet. Besides I do think I can and should improve my English further too.
|
 | Metalstyles At the end of the day, they should just promote people who write well and you my friend most certainly do.
|
 | Hawks That's true. I'm gonna keep going and keep trying to improve and hopefully get it next time.
|
 | Hawks Yeah I know, but I feel as though you definitely deserved it. I think a few of the choices are sketchy, but I guess they have their reasons as to why the promoted the people they did.
|
 | AtavanHalen Thanks. I'm not sure I've read anything of yours, but I appreciate the support.
|
 | Hawks Definitely think you got ****ed over in the whole promotion thing. You definitely deserve it.
|
 | AtavanHalen Thank you very much. Sorry, did you used to be someone else?
|
 | Observer other than yourself and knott imo :( this is just wrong. I hope you stay around though. You're getting it next time no matter what
|
 | Bitchfork you'll like it i guarantee it. very... RAW
|
 | Bitchfork yeah i like spreading the width a lot too - that and precious magnetic fields were recorded like 2 mos. before anything else on it so I was surprised it had such lasting power with me. thanks for listening. did you check out trash dog yet?
|
 | Hawks It's so ****ing good. I had to tell you, Wiz, Spirit, and Balls haha.
|
 | Hawks Listen to Night on the Bare Mountain by Veles. You'll love it.
|
 | Bitchfork *gasps* http://www.mediafire.com/?zyntm4no0wn
do it. now.
lo-fi punky punk that's in the bm vein but not bm
|
 | Bitchfork yup. by chance do you listen to trash dog?
|
 | jingledeath Wow 4 years. I haven't been banned on this account yet and I think I'm almost at the 3 year mark. And good luck with making staff, I'm pretty sure getting banned once won't hamper your chances at all.
|
 | Hawks Yeah I asked Willie about the whole process and he said it's just a spur of the moment thing and there's no set time on when they announce it. Has me pretty damn anxious, that's why I've been working my ass off lately and reviewing so much lately.
|
 | Hawks I don't think it should have a bearing on that at all. Doesn't effect your writing skills so I think you should be good. Plus, Willie has a say in all that s*** and he's cool about everything. I'm really curious for the promotions now that you mention it because I'm hoping to become contrib haha.
|
 | Hawks How's the ban life going brother? Lol
|
 | jingledeath ah life is cruel man. Is this the first time that you got banned?
|
 | Ire clean production clean vocals 1/5. raw bm n black cover 5/5
|
 | Ire two months ov drums.
|
 | Xenophanes Mh, your name is suspiciously close to that of another man I know....
Jk, but funny profile pic man :p
|
 | Ire http://soundcloud.com/bloozdies/tribalbm made dat for u
|
 | Ire shadows was totally gay yr cool. hope u get promoted to staff
|
 | Bitchfork cool cool cool. its in the database in case ya wanna rate it lata
|
 | Bitchfork it is done but right now it's an email only thing. sent it to the kyle_ward edu email
|
 | Bitchfork well i've been off sputnik for a week to do real important things
like make a new EP c:
|
 | HSThomas If you became Staff, would think of filling Shadows' shoes and taking you're place as Sputnik's dedictated metal staff reviewer?
|
 | Bitchfork I didn't know that contribs/staff could get banned. One of Hep Kat's lists. Redsky spilled the metaphorical beans. I'll just have to be on rym more often :\
|
 | HSThomas That's taking banning to a whole new level. We have freedom of speech here lol. Well I do hope you get a Staff position. Maybe you can do something about it through influence or something like that. From what I've seen and heard, apart from that incident you've got a pretty good record with the Mods and you do activelly contribute to the website so I so little resistence in you becoming a Staff Reviewer. All I can say though is good luck with it.
|
 | HSThomas I do get your point. I remember browsing through the ban threads forum once and seeing people doing all kinds of crap. I remember even one guy got banned for promoting hatred, cocaine use and anti-americanism. I have to admit though I've seen the Staff behaving like a bunch of complete bastards on occasions, mostly when people disagree with them on the "Sputnik" bands and yet they're rarely banned for it. I mean seriously, something's got to change.
|
 | HSThomas Crysis, what the hell did you get band for, mate?
|
 | FadeToBlack yah I know. i made a brand new alt and all I said was "good thing he's not a chef". oh well at least now i'll get some revision done
|
 | Wizard I was just thinking about how the staff can get away with murder.
|
 | Hawks Yeah I saw all that. That's why I didn't even keep posting. I completely agree with you that Norwegian black metal had nothing to do with a Leviathan thread. I kinda got into it with Butchered about the whole Mayhem thing, but we took it to the shoutbox. Everything in there is pretty much pointless and doesn't relate to the actual news at all.
|
 | Hawks Yeah Dave seems like he's a lot more strict about things than Willie is. Still, nothing said in the thread was ban worthy, at least when I was in there.
|
 | Hawks Two weeks is also excessive. It shouldn't have been at all, but if anything a few days instead of weeks.
|
 | Hawks Come on dude there has been MUCH worse things that have been said around here without people getting banned. That's pretty harsh just for making a joke about something like that. People do s*** like that all the time.
|
 | Hawks Really? Didn't seem like there was anything that was ban worthy in that thread. I don't understand why people like Porch and Alacahol-fag-whatever can say anything and not get banned, but you get banned for that. Don't really get it.
|
 | Relinquished hey like I said it was bitchfork that told. I'm wishing that it happens, but that should've happened a while ago tbh
|
 | Relinquished I think that sputnik should section the site into a user section and a staff section. The former wouldn't be affiliated with the latter." that's pretty much what bitchfork told me
|
 | Relinquished Apparently the staff/mods had been talking about it for a long time but they finally decided to go through with it since all those people with alts decided to scat it up on the review pages and a bunch of websites were threatening to drop their affiliation with sputnik (probably metacritic mostly).
|
 | Relinquished By June, Sputnik is taking the userbase away from the reviews beacuse of all the scat trolls and such. Reviews will have to be turned in via email. Eveyone will be restricted to the forums. Some of the contribs will be staffed and they get review access.
|
 | Relinquished better off starting a rym account. don't take this site too seriously, yeah being contributor looks cool, but it doesn't have worth. I heard a bitchfork rumor that goes like this...
|
 | Relinquished and the people you see around aren't smart and won't give a crap about you until you find the right people and run a blog together
|
 | Wizard This site is a lot like life, if you know people in high places, you go somewhere. If you listen to what you want like us, you're going to get hated on.
|
 | Wizard What the hell did you say about Leviathan? I mean, I've said worse and how is it that I've never been banned yet? Doesn't make sense. Anyways, realize that you're a contributor and they want you to behave yourself a bit more, hence why they made an example of you. Don't think I'm taking sides, I think this site is biased as **** and depending on who you "know", you can get away with anything. Too bad you're not one of those indie ****s or else the majority of this site would be sucking your
|
 | Relinquished ehh that's why you don't get emotionally involved with the retards here. better off starting a rym account like all the cool kids
