Gorguts

[Post_Scriptum]

Negativa guys.

 

[CF87]

I prefere older Gorguts over their newer.

Considered Dead is my favorite.

 

[hibernal_dream]

Do you even have to ask?

Luc is a vastly superior songwriter.

That wasn't what he asked

 

[Freanan]

Obscura was my first album by them and my favourite.
Erosion of Sanity is very good too.

The first one sounds not extremely special, and i did not get into the newest one very much either.

 

[hibernal_dream]

From Wisdom To Hate is my favorite - Obscura has several weak songs. Any one else feel this way?

 

[Life Sucks]

Gorguts are great. Too bad they aren't around anymore. I love all their stuff, but their first two are actually my favorites, as I love straight up old school dm.

bought the roadrunner `from the vault` album for gorguts, took me a while to realize how godlike these canadians are, superb death metal at its finest

 

[The Antihippy]

only have obscura but it was great. what was their earlier stuff like?

 

[Vitor]

old good death metal... it's enough to know

What's this? A compilation? Never heard of it

Yep. Old School death metal is the only death metal.

 

[DarkBliss]

Well, yea, with the exception of Gorguts and a couple of other modern DM bands, who managed to retain that feeling which makes OSDM so special.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

obscura is pure modern DM, I dunno how anybody can say otherwise. The production is very clean and polished, the sound is very modern.

 

[DarkBliss]

Well, what I wanted to say is that the clear production doesn't detract from their modern era works, it's perfectly tailored to the band's sound. And the music is spirited, something that is also true of many OSDM classics.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

what you are truly implying is that modern death metal is trash and when a purely modern death metal album is great (like later obscura) it is still somehow connected to OSDM even when the sound is 100% modern DM, this doesn't make much sense to me either, but hey whatever floats your boat...

 

[DarkBliss]

what you are truly implying is that modern death metal is trash.

Nope. I haven't heard ENOUGH modern DM to imply something as broad as that. It's just that a lot of modern DM I have heard to me sounds samey, faceless and one-dimensional, because the digital production sucks all the life out of it.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

I'd be inclined to agree, though most bands suck regardless of production. Outside of nile, lykathea, augury, gorguts and deeds of flesh, I'd say I listen to 99% OSDM as well.

strangely though, I generally prefer later works by the OSDM greats, later immolation >>> dawn of possession. I'm not a fan of the muddy production of the very early 90's a lot of times.

 

[DarkBliss]

I don't like Deeds of Flesh and newer Immolation,in my opinion, outside of Unholy Cult is completely average. But hey, at least we agree on the OSDM bit.

 

[Papa Josh]

it's their first two albums on one cd

ANd a terrible package. Metal Mind released a superior remastered digipak with bonus tracks for each cd. Been following this band since the first cd was released, still have my original cassette tapes of the first two albums.

And who the fuck is this Muhammed?

 

[hibernal_dream]

Well, yea, with the exception of Gorguts and a couple of other modern DM bands, who managed to retain that feeling which makes OSDM so special.

You need to get Wicked Innocence - Omnipotence. Totally modern and IMO totally as good as, if not better than Obscura. It baffles me why so few new bands have latched on to this style.
