I'll throw out a couple, but I really only listen to his first four records. And as far as I'm concerned, you could throw the entirety of How the Gods Kill on your playlist, but here are a few I don't think anyone is mentioned yet: Heart of the Devil When the Dying Calls Going Down to Die...

Obscura - Cosmogenesis - Relapse Records - 2009 Technical death metal has always been pretty divisive with me with most of it eventually falling by the wayside over time. The reason is simple. While conveying the most depraved acts and thoughts through devastatingly brutal music has its...

I really have not had a similar reaction from anyone when I presented them with SW, but I certainly understand the reaction you described. Metal fans can be unbelievably open-minded or frustratingly close minded and clean vocals can be a major turn off for some. I know plenty of people who...

I picked up Waiting in the Wings in a used bin somewhere after hearing some rumblings about the band. As it would turn out, "one man's trash is another man's treasure." Lucky for me, I was on the latter half of the exchange and absolutely loved the album. Mercy Falls has been my most recent...

Thanks a bunch! I was getting frustrated trying to decipher all the lyrics while listening to the album. This should make things a lot easier.

I was hoping someone may have a link to the lyrics for Mercy Falls. While I purchased the CD, I have a disability (paralysis) that precludes me from holding the liner notes/lyrics. Metal Archives does not have the lyrics nor does any other online source that I could locate. Any assistance...

Unfortunately, the band is spread across three continents. Please don't take any of the following as an absolute truth, because I am not entirely sure about all of it... The principal songwriter, I believe, lives in Chicago while the drummer is in Canada and the singer is over in the UK...

Good stuff! Their EP is available to download for free off of the band's official website. I have Lux Aeturna, which is absolutely great, but how is the band's latest album? On topic: I figured some of you may have an appreciation for Chicago-based doom metal bands. Therefore, while...

Empyrium plays some serious sorrowful music. Definitely a folk inspired doom metal band. Great stuff to play while it storms here in Minnesota. Check it out: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=87591591

Byzantine is a great thrash/groove metal band. Unfortunately, they broke up shortly after the release of their album, Oblivion Beckons, earlier this year. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=2197302 Mar de Grises is an excellent death/doom metal band...

I have a pretty good understanding of the bands with "essential" albums from the genre, but I am not sure on the actual albums. If you could point out the best albums from the following bands, it would be greatly appreciated. I realize favorite albums is a rather subjective issue, but I am...

I will throw out two of my favorites: Seventh Wonder - Waiting in the Wings & Subterranean Masquerade - Suspended Animation Dream As for the best/worst, progressive metal is way too tricky a subject to have this debate.

Yeah, there is no instant gratification with this album. It really does require several listens to develop any appreciation for what's on the album. Personally, I really enjoyed this album. While the album contains some doom and prog elements, among others, I don't think fans of either...
