Death Metal

[~Derek~]

Nick said they were.

 

[S.U.A.D.]

Dying Fetus aren't brutal death.

I just consider them death metal, what do you consider them?

 

[Life Sucks]

death hop (death metal + hip hop)

 

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

Dying Fetus aren't brutal death.

Sometimes more than others, but for the most part they are. Also, Vomit Remnants basically sounds like earlier DF, so that lends more credence to this.

Speaking of early DF...absolutely brutal. And great.

Dying Fetus aren't brutal death.

They are broseph. Similar to what Celtic Frost are to black metal I'd say. Not as obviously part of the genre, but an influential originator and one that can't be separated from what came later.

As V5 said the early stuff is really good (Killing on Adrenaline ) but their newest is decent too

 

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

Agreed Nick, very nice way to look at it imo.

So they are like Suffocation in that they are proto-brutal death.

I always considered Dying Fetus brutal death and a part of that scene in general. But looking back and listening to them these days, they were definitely, at times, a bit closer to the more straight DM sound of, say, many of the Florida bands compared to many contemporary bands in the BDM vein. Their influence on the genre is pretty evident either way.

death hop (death metal + hip hop)

how the fuck do you draw THAT conclusion? *scratches head* Even with their last album (wasn't particularly as keen on W.O.R. as I was with the rest of their stuff) they still don't come close to that description. Are you referring to the Vince-era material?

 

[Malfeitor666]

I've never heard them called death hop before but I suppose thats the same as me calling them wiggercore. Slam death = wiggercore, most of the bands that play it admit to hip hop influences

 

[Death Aflame]

I don't think I have seen it mentioned here, but I am really enjoying Messiah's Choir of Horrors. Great OS death/thrash.

 

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

Not necessarily. Sometimes though.

 

[False Joe]

Lynch the fuckers.

V5 is a black man liker liker.

 

[~Derek~]

I like the brutal DM slams/slam Death, I just didnt find the vocal styles appealing, mainly those inhaled gutturals.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Gutteral vocals and breakdowns, when done right, are awesome.

Anyone else a big fan of Wormed and Dripping?

 

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

Everyone cool.

yeah. The music is appealing, but I like vocals that can be deciphered with some effort.

 

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

It's kind of a learn-to-like-it thing...

 

[waif]

i know. I'm learning. I've already come pretty far - I went from being able to tolerate/enjoy Anders Friden to being able to tolerate/enjoy Glenn Benton. Just have to give it time.

Benton has better diction than most singers
