[Lost Wisdom]

Hi Krow,

Could you please explain to me the difference between death metal and brutal death metal?

I genuinely have no idea

Thanks

the difference between death metal and brutal death metal?

Death Metal = angry man vocals
Brutal Death Metal = hungry hog vocals.

What do you think of Viraemia? Rings Of Saturn? Spawn Of Possession? They are a lot like Braindrill.

what is Metal?
as a non-guitarist/non-musician-of-any-sort, I don't really see what makes a soft/simplistic/happy band like Led Zepplin or Black Sabbath 'Metal' while this or that other comparable band is only 'Rock'. Judging by Metal I'm used to hearing, it would seem like a whole lot of Metal bands aren't metal, and I dunno if Pelican is any worse.

Pelican does not write in the standard key of metal. They are an instrumental alternative rock band which happens to use a lot of do0uble kick on the drums, which I guess is why they get lumped in w/ metal bands.
Brain Drill is completely intolerable. Sure, it is impressive how they can jam a billion notes into a measure of music, but it is just not enjoyable.
Here's a band I never hear about 'round here: Samael. Everything up to and includi9ng Passage was damn good imo.

Spawn of Possession are fucking awesome, both of their albums are pretty solid, especially Cabinet .... but i wouldn't say they sound too similar to Brain Drill or Viraemia (who i think are fucking horrible) ... never heard of Rings of Saturn.

I remember hearing Spawn of Possession awhile ago and I enjoyed it but I'm pretty sure they didn't sound anything like Brain Drill.

Heterosexuality of glam metal is unlimited, compared to nerds wanking their instruments thinking they're brutal.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Since when does glam metal need to be compared relative to anything to appear heterosexual?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

glam is the epitome of faggotry.

When speaking of bands like this:

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Glam metal is entirely heterosexual on its own. There is more testosterone in Motley Crue than in every black metal or whiny doom metal or ass-slapping retro thrash band praised here.

 

[Kara-Shehr]

wut

 

[HamburgerBoy]

It's the truth. TheNightsBane's idea of heterosexual metal is teenagers in leather jackets giving each other brojobs on how fuckin metal they are. Cinderella makes those bands its bitches.

Bah, I misread your post But yes, this is the best post I've seen on this forum.
