Death Metal

[Ryuuzaki]

Not to seem stalkerish, but are you going to be going to the Suffocation/Fleshgod Apocalypse/Decrepit Birth show?

No.

Sounds pretty awesome though.

So what other Finnish DM do I need? Only know Demilich and Demigod so far, methinks I need to investigate further.

[Inso]

haha awesome, will youtube all that today. Thanks for the recs as always.

Think I might get that Vorum album, sounds pretty epic so far. Album actually available in major retailer, wasn't expecting that lol. Convulse - World Without God is very nice too.

Seems to me that finnish DM is similar to sweDM in some ways but with a bit more brutality like the old US stuff, kind of a fusion of the two.

 

[Blind Guardian]

Velocibrad forgot Amorphis!

 

[Master_Yoda77]

And a bunch of others.

 

[VelociBrad]

yeah I wasn't trying to cover every finnish death metal band. just a bunch of stuff that came to mind.

 

[Wvrm]

And a bunch of others.

I'd like to see you make a list of every single worthy Finnish DM record.
Go ahead, make my day.

Or, if you didnt want to be quite so lazy... http://www.metal-archives.com/advan...ase_name=&release_type=1&label=&release_year=

There's every full length release on ma from finland from bands with "death" in their music genre.

 

[VelociBrad]

For anybody interested..

Hi everyone!
Just letting you know that I have now put up the next 'TO THE DEATH' release for possible pre-orders.
This one is limited to 300 copies, so act fast!

MEGA SLAUGHTER - Death Remains - The demos 90-91 LP
Release date: Nov. 12the, 2010

Classic death metal from this overseen swedish band. Their two demos transfered at studio Sunlight from the original mastertapes + two never before heard tracks from an early incantation of the band!
Limited to 300 handnumbered copies it includes an 8-page, A5 size fanzine-style-booklet with lyrics, info, photos and other classic memorabilia all true to the classic swedish döds scene.

Order it from: www.bloodharvest.se/catalog

 

[Crapples]

Which reminds me I haven't listened to Calls from the Beyond in fucking forever. I will have to fix that. Hopefully I can grab that LP soon as well. Been a while since my last Blood Harvest haul.

 

[Zephyrus]

So how's the new Hail of Bullets?

 

[VelociBrad]

Great, of course.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

what the verdict on this album guys?

Vasaeleth - Crypt Born and Tethered to Ruin

 

[VelociBrad]

I think it's pretty good stuff.

 

[Mayhem_MetalHead]

Good new black/ death metal, except VERY similar to Incantation. If you don't mind the similarities, then you should enjoy it.

Not quite as innovative as I would have hoped. For me to really like any of these newer "old-school feeling" bands, they have to bring something new to the table. Otherwise it just sounds too replicated/copied. I'm still on the fence with whether I consider Crypt Born and Tethered to Ruin to be an Incantation rip off, or an interesting full length debut for Vasaeleth.

I guess I just have to give it a few more listens and wait to see what direction the band takes with their next album.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Uh, it's fucking awesome. It's like a mix of fucking Demigod and Incantation. Best OSDM of the year.
