Death Metal

[Eligos]

So you think both will pale in comparison to Obscura and Naer Solen Gar Evogher?

 

[divine_torture]

That's what I'm saying. I called it, folks. Both Gorguts and Dawn will fail this time around.

 

[Eligos]

Your prediction doesn't surprise me, coming from you.

 

[divine_torture]

The first half of your post I lol'd, then I was confused. Why coming from me?

 

[Avigrus]

New Gorguts material? Fucking awesome, that's news to me.

That paragraph-or-so long post you made a little while ago that bled pessimism

 

[divine_torture]

I breathe pessimism, haha. I don't know which post you're referring to. But in the interest of fairness, I think Dawn has more of a 50/50 shot at creating something truly worthwhile.

Scythian - "To Those Who Stand Against Us" really kicked my ass. Is that their only album?

 

[Krow]

Other than a demo... that album is really good though... I had no expectations at all for it... and it kicked my ass.

What would you recommend for somebody who's getting into Swedish DM? I own first two Entombed albums and Dismember' The God That Never Was. I would prefer if albums could be relatively easy to buy.
P.S. I have heard Vomitory and I really like their sound.

If you're just now getting into Entombed, I would cover all your classic old school dm too instead of focusing on sweden.

These shouldn't be too hard to find:

Unleashed - Where No Life Dwells
Unleashed - Shadows in the Deep
Grave - Into the Grave
Carnage - Dark Recollections
Dismember - Like an Ever Flowing Stream
At the Gates/Grotesque - Gardens of Grief/In the Embrace of Evil
At the Gates - The Red in the Sky Is Ours

Dakryn, if that avatar is a fusion of Bush and Obama, that is a total mindfuck. It is so subtle that I could barely tell. If that is just an Obama pic, than I am losing it

 

[Thrash82]

Thanks for recs people!

 

[Lateralus14]

Listening to Ulcerate's other album, not bad.

Anyway...

What's most worthwhile from Gorguts after Obscura (if any)?

 

[ASD]

I'd suggest their first two actually. Not avant garde like Obscura, but good old school dm.

Agreed.

I prefer Considered Dead & Erosion of Sanity rather than Obscura & From Wisdom to Hate. I love all of them, but i think the first 2 albums are particularly strong - I would say Considered Dead is my favourite.

 

[Lateralus14]

Ok but is From Wisdom to Hate good for someone who liked the more unique style on Obscura?

 

[Avigrus]

Yes. I would say so.

 

[no country for old wainds]

yeah
