Hey Paul... what was the name of that band with Pasi?

[General Zod]

If memory serves me correctly, you were telling Ali and I (at the NYC show) about a band featuring Pasi (x-Amorphis) that you were very fond of. Assuming I didn't dream this, do you remember the name of the band? And if so, is there one disc you'd recommend above the others? Thanks.

Zod

Zod,
www.metal-archives.com is your friend!!!!

Here are the bands Pasi is or has been in....

Pasi Koskinen - Vocals (Ajattara, Mannhai, Shape of Despair, ex-St. Mucus, To Separate the Flesh from the Bones)

 

[OPETH_DT]

Ajattara.. yeah.. I overheard Paul mentioning it to you. You probably saw me. I was wearing an October Tide shirt.

 

[General Zod]

Thanks. But the problem is I'm not sure which one, and not sure which disc I should check out.

I don't remember off hand. I know about 15 people who were there.

 

[NvmbrsDoom5]

The band Paul was talking about is Ajattara, and any of their discs is worth checking out! They have a Myspace page too where you can listen to some songs, go find it, it's good stuff. Pasi rules.

 

[General Zod]

Larry... Thanks for the confirmation.

OK. Wasn't sure if I was putting your nick and your face together.

I know I am going to get flamed HARD for this, but I have never ever checked out Amorphis!!!!!

 

[Novembers Paul]

Here's a hint to our European fans... If you have not already, you MIGHT want to start checking out Ajattara.

Zod, All 4 CD's are awesome. It's hard to suggest what to start with. I started with their first CD, "Itse." Very catchy, and tons of hook. It's what "hooked" me into the band. Their newest release "Äpäre" is also a good starting point!

All the lyrics are in Finnish (I believe) and normally this would get to me, but this band is so fucking good, it doesn't matter I can't understand them. I don't have enough praise for this band.

 

[lurch70]

Thanks.

Ha ha, I was there too, and still aren't sure who's who as far as members that met.

 

[OPETH_DT]

I wasn't drinking at all. I had that one rum and coke with dinner, and I was tired, since I had been up since 6 am.

 

[dan of bereavement]

I woke you up again at 6 am puking lol!!!!

 

[OPETH_DT]

I finally put a face together with a name. I know who Zod is now. I just saw a picture of him with Sam from H.C. 2006 while looking at her page.

 

[Will Bozarth]

LOLZ DEW U NO ME?!

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Everyone knows who I am. EVERYONE.

 

[SetHeh]

Anyone here listens to Shape of Despair? For my musical taste they're one of the best Funeral Doom bands. Sometimes I like to listen to them when I go to sleep (the music is very dreamy).

 

[AnTz0r]

does anyone of you know paramaecium? they were doom band from austrialia, actually one of the first metal bands to use operatic vocals and violins and stuff. their album Within The Ancient Forest is quite great actually, although it has its flaws... just wondering, i've never heard anybody mention it.

 

[Novembers Paul]

Paramecium is OK. Always average for me. The first metal band I heard to use the operatic vocals was Celtic Frost. That's where we were inspired from to use the female vocals.
