Just came in here to post this:


As I hadn't listened to it in ages and holy fuck it's great.

But glad to see that the in-crowd are accepting Grin finally haha

 

[Vilden]

Heh! Grin may actually be my #2 Coroner after Mental Vortex.

Mental Vortex.

Wow, I thought that HBB and I were the only ones here that liked it. Fave track?

is this Doom, Black, what? I like the Dostoevsky-ish cover.

 

[Draehl]

Both. More black, but a definite doomyness.

Host I think, really dark and unsettling. You?

QFT.

Good album. By far their weakest though.

Serpent Moves closely followed by Paralyzed, Mesmerized.

The first few are my least favourites. R.I.P. is a typical debut, sloppy and raw with some good ideas but amateur compared to their other albums and Punishment for Decadence has much better songwriting and riffs but No More Color destroys it. They did their best work when they realised they didn't have to go a hundred miles an hour all the time and concentrated more on dynamics and good riffs.

 

[Phylactery]

Lies. Punishment for Decadence is bestest.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

yada yada .... concentrated more on good riffs ... yada yada yada

because surely Grin has more killer riffage than those first two albums, right?

And did you just call R.I.P "sloppy"?

Lies. Punishment for Decadence is bestest.

Without a doubt.

As far as Coroner goes, my order is:

1. Punishment for Decadence
2. Mental Vortex
3. No More Color
4. R.I.P
5. Grin

I still like Grin. Coroner's worst is better than many bands anyway.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

No More Color > Mental Vortex > Grin > Punishment for Decadence > RIP

First two are objective masterpieces, Grin only falls slightly short due to some needless repetition at points. Punishment gets a bit samey but still has a lot of excellent moments and is basically an upgraded, thrash metal version of RIP.

Oh, and the new songs on the S/T are on par with Grin on the whole.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Good call on SC. That could very well be it. How the hell did you remember that briefing song?

I played Starcraft Battle.net for literally thousands of hours between 1999 and 2002.

 

[RadicalThrasher]

Never even heard of these guys until recently, but this kicks all kinds of ass!
