Controversial opinions on metal

[KafkaX]

I was gonna go with TD, but LFDGD is fucking top notch as well...So many good songs on both...And the fucking feels on DO???? Jesus christ...Cant pick. Wont pick.

Viva Emptiness was actually the first album I listened to from them. Back when I actually bought CD's...While it is a good album I personally cant say its their best.

 

[CiG]

They really got comfortable in the late 90's and onwards just pouring molten emotion on their listeners, it's visceral.

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Night is the New Day is my favorite, but TGCD might be their most complete album.

 

[Manic Ferocity]

I didn't really "get" The Chasm until a few years ago and now they're my favorite death metal band. The songwriting is unlike anything I've heard before, so I definitely understand why it's off-putting to some at first. Procession to the Infraworld is their magnum opus as far as I'm concerned but Deathcult for Eternity follows closely behind.

 

[Omni]

The Chasm is one of the few bands that deserves all of the praise that they get.

 

[The Ozzman]

Night is the New Day is my favorite, but TGCD might be their most complete album.

That's definitely where they found their sound.

 

[no country for old wainds]

yall should hear the DEATHCULT remaster if they haven't already, i think it may help folks appreciate it.

 

[Krow]

I bought the remaster but I haven't even listened to it because the flac files I have are derived from the first press. Moving out and not having a computer is killing me. Want to be able to convert all my music to external hard drdisk drives so I can mobilize my gigantic collection a bit. My iPods had the same music on it since October

 

[The Ozzman]

Where can one obtain the remaster?

the cd is probably sold out. i need to listen to Procreation of the Inner Temple more but IIRC the production is so shit that it's hard to hear what's going on. the re-recorded track on the Procreation re-issue sounds killer

Katatonia post BMD is pretty horrible uke:

Incantation's first 3 albums are my favorite death metal but i can see how the 2000-present albums sound samey.

 

[Funerary_Doom]

Incantation… I have mixed views with them. They can be a little boring to me, honestly. They play their instruments really well, but…

I love The Chasm though. There's something about their drumming and time signatures that keeps you on your toes. Actually, haven't heard their first three albums, which gotta get on soon.

I pretty much like all Katatonia but haven't heard their last album yet. Dead End Kings is okay. That album can be a little "unauthentically whiny" (whatever this means ) for me at times.

 

[The Butt]

I tried Brave Murder Day again and I just couldn't devote my full attention to it. Decent band but I don't like it.

 

[EspaDa]

Day is such a great track off BMD

 

[The Ozzman]

Digital remaster for only 4 bucks is a nice price. I'll get on that soon.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

yeah Incantation is kinda "samey" but I still love em

 

[CiG]

I respect the consistency that comes with sameyness.

 

[Militant]

I don't like Iron Maiden (don't shoot me).
Mayhem's Grand Declaration of War is good.

 

[CiG]

[thots shired]

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Mayhem's Grand Declaration of War is good.

Second best black metal album (after DMDS).

 

[The Ozzman]

I respect the consistency that comes with sameyness.

Well yeah I can't knock the band either. Those fuckers ruled live and John McEntee is a really nice dude.
