Death Metal

[Death Aflame]

Opeth are simply a progressive metal band that occasionally use death metal vocals. Every other musical aspect about the band is clearly not death metal related. It really isn't too hard to distinguish this if you know or are even slightly familiar with death metal.

I like Opeth's first six albums.

This is great stuff.

Well this IS a death metal metal thread so...

 

[Moves]

yeah i know...and i DID already explain myself...so fuck off and stop badgering me about saying the word Opeth in the Death Metal thread

 

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

But they're off topic here. You don't talk about Dimmu Borgir in the power metal thread, do you? Opeth gets enough discussion all over the universe anyway.

Recommend me some fucking awesome, grandiose, majestic death metal that has a bit of melody, maybe something like Cemetary - An Evil Shade of Grey or Caducity - Whirler of Fate.

In-Quest - Extrusion: Battlehymns
In-Quest - Operation: Citadel
Deathevokation seconded.

You explaining yourself isn't relevant. This is a discussion about DEATH METAL hence why talking about Opeth is off-topic.

well im a n00b...so forgive me. Someone else start some conversation instead of focusing on me being wrong

indeed, good band but not a death metal band in any sense other than the vocals

Thoughts on Jungle Rot?

one of the worst bands in death metal uke:

 

[ohiogrinder]

I heard one song from this album recently, and it was pretty good. Even though, they shouldnt be considered death metal anymore, more like death and roll.

as far as I'm concerned, its still death metal in a sense. I mean Left Hand Path pretty much annihilates most death metal coming out these days. they are exceptions, of course.

 

[ohiogrinder]

Unluckily for me I live nowhere near a decent oldschool black/death/heavy/thrash band.

isn't Blasphemy from Canada?

thoughts on Gorguts?

New Benighted isn't as good as Identisick at all.

 

[Hatebreeder]

thoughts on Gorguts?

Worth it. Start with Considered Dead for solid old school death and The Erosion of Sanity for incredibly dissonant experimental death, and move on to Obscura if you can handle the latter.

thoughts on Gorguts?

Awesome. I really don't have a favorite album of theirs, simply because everything they released has been extremely good.

AWESOME album...I own it on tape. Great story involving it: my iPod-to-car-tape-player thing was broken at the time so the only music I could listen to driving around to take pictures before prom (and then to the prom itself) with my girlfriend was Luck Of The Corpse (and other tapes, but that was mainly the one we listened to). I don't think I'll ever forget that!

Yeah I've got it on tape too, I've been listening to it non stop to and from work.

British Columbia.

Which a long way away.

Deathevokation is the best DM albums this year. It fucking rules.

Fucking ace! Awesome album.

New Benighted isn't as good as Identisick at all.

I disagree.. the songs on Icon seem better to me.
