Like edgeofthorns on the Amorphis thread, I am a bit lost here. So where should I start? I am sure the newer stuff is less growl oriented. Has there been a change in vocalist or styles over time?
I must admit I have a thing where I have a hard time going backwards in a bands catalog. Strange I know but if the first album I hear from a band is their 4th and they have eight, I can much easier get into 5,6,7,8 vs. going backward into the older stuff. I know it's crazy but it seems that once I hear a more polished and produced version of a band I can't go backwards.
Based on that I guess I should start at the beginning. Most of you know I don’t do growls very well although I am able to tolerate them more now than ever. (Thanks Magius) So is the early stuff too growl laden for a guy like me and are there any “WTF” albums I should skip?
