I have said it many times before - there are quality stuff on the first three records or so. However what brings it way down for me is the drumming. Its plain and boring and gives no life to the songs. It rather takes life out of it. Thats why I can never stand to listen to all of "butchered at birth" at once for example. I think they would be alot better with another drummer.
To give an example where the drumming really stands out I would nominate Vomitory. Its nothing special technically. The drummer usually keeps to the standards. However I have rarely heard a drummer that, in some way, incorporates so much "groove" to all the aspects of his drumming. I dont know what it is but to me he always stands out and he makes the songs breathe and always feel fresh.
