Death Metal

[V.V.V.V.V.]

You're the one who reccomended them to me.

I'm just getting around to checking them out...where the hell have I been? Nocturnus is up next, I'm loving Florida's Old School DM scene.

Woot. Anyway yeah, early technical Floridian death metal is GOOD fucking stuff...

The New Dismember kicks ass I love those growling vocals and Maiden riffs on the guitar

It's good and all, but I feel like The God That Never Was hit me much harder. However, the doomy sections and that Maiden section you're talking about are fucking awesometastic.

How about Dark Suns progressive death metal?

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Not very good. It's also more like doomy gothic/"dark" metal than death.

Also, where to start with / best Immolation album?

Dawn of Possession. Then Unholy Cult imo.

I like the new Dismember album alot, the production is much more tame IMO such as the new drummer I think fits in quite well.

Start with Dawn of Posession, and that is their best. The other stuff is quite different, but Here in After rules for that style.

Brutality was formed by Jeff Acres in 1986.The band released 4 demos and 2 7in ep's before being signed to Nuclear Blast records in 1992. The band recorded 3 albums for them before disbanding in 1996.The band got back together in 2008 and are working on songs for a new album.More info in the coming weeks.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

...awesome!

As much as I hate to admit I think I've finally found why everyone likes Quo Vadis so much. Oh well, good band - I just wish they didn't drag on so much at the end of their songs.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Agreed...the second half of I Believe is crap. It becomes a completely different song.

 

[General Zaroff]

I actually never heard any Quo Vadis.

Yeah, I don't get what they did there. The first half is great but then they have some really shitty riff that just ruins it all.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Definitely. Vocalist is super weak too. Effeminate harsh vox loses UNLESS it's Omnium Gatherum on SAAL!

I actually never heard any Quo Vadis.

"Defiant Imagination" is a very good, solid slab of tech death, I recommend checking it out.

Will do, cap'n.

 

[Vilden]

ok, anyways, whats the opinion about old bolt thrower compared to the newer material.

Old totally wins! I think newer Bolt Thrower is pretty generic with boring production. Old Bolt Thrower had alot of character and awsome atmosphere combined with crushing riffs. Realm of Chaos is one of my favourte death metal albums ever.

 

[Lunar Descent]

Also, where to start with / best Immolation album?

To start with, Dawn Of Possession. Their best album? Close To A World Below.

Does anyone dig OLD Living sacrifice material? To name one specifically, Inhabit.

 

[Koude Haat]

i got the reissue of Morpheus Descends- Ritual Of Infinity in the mail the other day, been enjoying it a lot. How does Chronicles Of The Shadowed Ones compare to it? Worth picking up also?

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

The production isn't as good, but it's a solid piece...did you actually find a copy??

 

[Alter]

I am totally up to date on the black metal scene but I am pretty much not informed on the current death metal scene save for
Nunslaughter. So can someone tell me where to start on some newer bands akin to them.

 

[Manic Ferocity]

Well I don't care for the brutal death metal scene but there have been some awesome contemporary old school death metal bands popping up lately.

Check these out:

Deathevokation
Kaamos
Repugnant
Nominon
Necroccultus
Denial Fiend
Graveyard (Mex)
Dark Faith (not exactly "old school" but a fucking awesome band nonetheless)
Decrepitaph
