Extol

[Scourge of Malice]

Okay so today I was bored and felt like buying some new music. I was glancing through Tower Records and noticed Extol. I had heard a couple songs from them and was fairly impressed. I noticed that "Burial" was only 9.99 so i thought what the heck? and took a risk. I have only listened to it once through but I am quite impressed. Of course it needs to sink in more but I could definitely see this band becomming a favorite. My question is: what cd would you reccomend next? From what Ive read undeceived is atleast as good or better and it has more clean vocals and vioilin (which I like).. should I get this one next or the new one? Thanks!

Get... some better music.

 

[Post_Scriptum]

Undeceived definately

 

[Scourge of Malice]

Get... killed. idiot

Any intelligent people care to reply to the topic?

 

[Scourge of Malice]

***thank you post scriptum.. just saw your reply. that last one wasnt directed at you

 

[Funeral Portrait]

Undeceived is a great album. Get that one next.

 

[blakmetalemp]

Undeceived is by far their best IMO although I enjoy them all, Undeceived just kicks way too much ass.

TIIIIIME STAAAANNDS STILLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!

 

[Flaming Death]

yeah, I have Burial and Synergy. I have undecieved burned.

I like Synergy the least.

 

[Black Winter Day]

synergy is very good IMO... although i haven't heard their other stuff

 

[futile]

I only have synergy , and i really like it

Is the older stuff much different ? better?

 

[Funeral Portrait]

Undeceived dominates over all of their material...imo of course. But everything by Extol is great. I got a bunch of free merchanise of theirs because I did an internship at their old record label in Seattle. bwa ha ha!!!

UNDECIEVED!

that album is just epic. that album was the album that got me into extreme metal. one of the best bands to currently exist.

to answer maiden nz's question, synergy is very different from their older stuff. their older stuff is darker and more extreme. actually its more extreme and more mellow, depending on the song. go get undecieved and see what i mean
~gR~

 

[Life Sucks]

Undeceived. Synergy has more clean vocals, is more melodic, and is the least heavy Extol CD so far.

 

[futile]

Thanks guys

sounds like i will definatly have to check out Undecieved

 

[Caelum Adustum]

Undecieved...

I think Synergy sucks, I don't see why they changed to metalcore/hardcore/neo-thrash whatever the hell you want to call it.

 

[oneshotendsthiswar]

undeceived is more straightforward and heavy, the production is devastating. synergy is a lot thrashier and has a lot more interesting time signatures. their drummer is amazing. both album are the kill.josh.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Synergy is good for being straightforward melo-thrash.

Undeceived is good for classical/jazz influenced melod-death with less clean vocals.

Take your pick.

Start with "Undeceived" (as the general consensus states) then move on to "Synergy." The EP's are worth looking up too, especially the "Paralysis EP."

 

[Hammer of Might]

Undeceived is a great album. Get that one next.
