Controversial opinions on metal

[no country for old wainds]

septicflesh have been bad for ages but the debut is a bonafide classic.

im going entirely based on Fallen Temple, Communion, Titan, and Great Mass.

well, its all a communion of titan sized great massive fallen turds

i will admit, titan was fucking atrocious

 

[CiG]

They suck, even their so called classic debut is mediocre.

Explain how.

 

[The Ozzman]

That band was boring live. The only interesting thing was the lead vocalists' body armor shirt.

 

[RedStorm]

Explain how.

it was boring, i liked estropen because of the melancholic feel it had and the vocalist sounded like he was putting his all into, his long growls were awesome, now all i hear is the drums

i used to think this then it clicked. it has a lot of annoying ass fans though i must say

 

[Omni]

Their early music is good. The later stuff is atrociously bad.

I'm willing to give it another chance.

I like Communion for reasons I can't really articulate apparently. The rest I don't really care for much though.

As far as the CoF comparison goes, I suppose I could tolerate them with decent vocals, so maybe that's why.

Septic Flesh have some good stuff. Some of their earlier work is pretty good, and so are Communion and The Great Mass. I remember everyone liking those albums when they came out, don't now what the fuck happened now. No one incorporates symphony into death metal quite like they do ... and im talking about an actual orchestra.

 

[Krow]

I liked The Great Mass before but last time I tried to listen to it I turned it off really fast. Maybe I should go grab it out of my music room and try again sometime soon.

 

[AllShallFall]

Give Titan a chance too. People hate them because they use a real orchestra in their music, but hating them for that reason alone is meritless. It's incorporated really well into the music and flows well.

Don't judge them just off of The Great Mass.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

The Great Mass is a much better album than their last release.

Most, or maybe just about all the other "symphonic" dm bands dont and cant even incorporate a real orchestra into their music.

 

[The Butt]

I actually never cared for Septicflesh. Always found them absolutely mind-numbing.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

Great Mass and Communion are good, but Ophidian Wheel is where it's at.

 

[CiG]

Why the fuck would you even want an orchestra in Death Metal? I don't get the appeal at all.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

Why have an orchestra anywhere?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

... I personally don't give a fuck about most symphonic death metal, but Septic Flesh are something else ... and its mostly due to the fact that they work with a real orchestra. It blends in with their sound perfectly imo.

I dig some Fleshgod too(most people here don't), but i dont think they work with an actual orchestra ... i honestly cant think of another dm band that does.
