Albums you gave a second chance....

[ds336]

Hey everyone, I think this is a question that doesn't seem to get asked in most forums (I've never seen it at least) but what are some Hypocrisy albums that you like/love today that before you didn't care about? For me it's 'Into the Abyss' & 'The Fourth Dimension..' I'm not counting 'Catch 22' (I don't own it anymore because I only liked a handful of songs really., & I put those songs on a compilation CD.)

I find it hard to believe that everyone here didn't have a Hypocrisy album that they didn't like at first!! Anybody???:Smug:

 

[lumitalvi]

Well it took quite some time to get in to Into the Abyss. And the first two albums I never listen because of the vocals.

 

[ds336]

I never bothered w/ the first because it sounded like typical death metal. The second one (Osculum) was WAY BETTER!! I love 'Into the Abyss' now! I've been playing it a lot the last few weeks! I think because Virus had so much energy, it made me check out Into The Abyss again & I saw the same intensity! Great stuff!

Well,I didn`t ever NOT like Into The Abyss,but it did require a couple of listenings to grow accustomed to it.

i didn't dig on into the abyss much at first. now i do.

penetralia i had no love for until i had it for a few months, then realized how awesome it is.

 

[Shalashaska]

Yeah,it takes a few listening.

A good example of Hypocrisy`s talent is how they approach songs,IMO.

Take Nightmare for example.

As the counter hits 3:21,they start playing perhaps the coolest part of the song,and I just assume that any other band at that time would have played less good than the exellent melody that Hypocrisy plays.

I find it hard to put in words,so just listen to it.
I think you`ll understand me afterwards.

Hypocrisy was the band that got me into Death Metal. They were the first Death Metal band I ever heard so when I first listened to them I was like "Um, what the f---?" But I was hooked soon after that.

I guess I gave 'Catch 22' another chance recently!

 

[Personified Hatred]

The Fourth Dimension and Catch 22.

 

[Zephyrus]

I haven't given The Fourth Dimension much of a chance, and Catch 22 I've tried a couple times. As for the first two albums I am slowly getting more into them. Everything else is high on my list.

 

[The Uppance Has Come]

The first two albums I hated the vocalist he bored me to death.

 

[IntoPhagist]

virus at first to me sounded boring after a couple more listens its def one of there best albums ever lol and catch 22 which is an awesome different album. Into the Abyss to me sucks except for a few songs.

 

[doom_death]

Into The Abyss....hard to get into it,but later becomes kvlt

 

[A1a23]

The fourth dimension. At my first first listens i thought it would be a slow boring album but shit was i wrong.
