Death Metal With Short Songs

[nissan]

I find myself getting bored a lot of a time when death metal bands go further than like 3:30 point because they end up just repeating shit and it gets real redundant. I mean if songs are progressive it doesn't matter (for example the 40 minute song Crimson doesn't bore me at all) but most long songs are merely repetition...

A good example of what I'm talking about is Capharnaum.


Cheers

fortunately we're not stuck with cassettes anymore... you can just skip to the next track when you get bored

Are we talking about Napalm Death type stuff here, or normal Death Metal?

Fallen Christ - Abduction Ritual
Death metal with a grind mentality in that they tend to move it along before the two minute mark.

Probably you just need to work on your attention span.

Fear Factory - Soul of a new machine

A lot of short, fast, industrial death metal songs. It has grind running through it a bit but I would not call it anything like Napalm death by a long shot.
