Katatonia huh

[Vegard Pompey]

Brave Murder Day, Tonight's Decision and Discouraged Ones are their best efforts.

He also says fuck a couple times in 'Without God'. That bug you too? Shut up please. Katatonia is in no way over rated, nor are their lyrics bad.

Last Fair Deal Gone Down is amazing. 'Tonight's Music', 'Disposession', 'Teargas', and 'Sweet Nurse' are fantastic tunes.

 

[no country for old wainds]

katatonia are pretty bad at placing their lyrics, esp. on last fair deal iirc

i used to be so obsessed with sweet nurse hahah

Why does the use of profanity piss you off? Is it because it ruins the flow of the song? I don't think it detracts from it at all and fits the song well given the context

word. it's perfect as it is within the songs on Viva Emptiness (which is my clear favourite together with BMD)

 

[Xorv]

Lyrics does not always equal quality. This isn't the poetry thread people.

 

[Lateralus14]

My favs are bar none Brave Murder Day and Tonight's Decision. Favorite songs are Black Session, Nowhere, and Endtime right now. Liked everything overall but Last Fair Deal Gone Down and Viva Emptiness are a little weird for me sometimes.

 

[Xorv]

I prefer Discouraged Ones and Tonight's Decision AND the great cold distance

my least favorite: Brave Murder Day

 

[Vilden]

I like everything they've done, but LFDGD is stretching it, obviously their worst output.

BMD > DoDS > DO > the rest.

 

[Ross]

brave murder day is easily there best album imo, every song is great

 

[darrkon]

LAST FAIR DEAL GONE DOWN

 

[Psychonaut]

Viva Emptiness is the strongest of their newer stuff. Brave Murder day is awesome in its own right. All of them are good and worth checking out. Hopefully Katatonia will lead you to Diabolical Masquerade and October Tide as well.

Best album ever made.

LAST FAIR DEAL GONE DOWN

Don't listen to this guy.

I'll concede to their lyrics being meh on that and Clean Today. But overall fantastic. And I've always loved that song. It's the BIG chorus. They do so well at that...

 

[Nightmare_Heaven]

Brave Murder Day
Sounds of Decay
Discouraged Ones
Viva Emptiness

All amazing, amazing stuff.

i got Viva Emptiness. like it a lot! very moody songs. and their guitar tone is kinda grungey. cool lyrics that stick out like sore thumb sometimes "*atmospheric riffing*...a fucking lie! don't give a shit...it's over now."

 

[Hypnos]

BMD + Viva Emptiness > Great Cold Distance > Discouraged Ones > DODS > Tonight's Decision > LDGD

Hopefully Katatonia will lead you to Diabolical Masquerade and October Tide as well.

yes! Definitely once you're done fiddling around with Katatonia, look into Diabolical Masquerade and October Tide

 

[The Ozzman]

Maybe the bad placement of lyrics is intentional? Just a thought.

I apologize for having an opinion, and not being able to enjoy mediocre lyrics. It's not like I don't enjoy the band anyway, they have awesome choruses and are great songwriters, the lyrics just seem really forced at times, and don't flow well.
It's not even specifically profanity that I'm saying they don't use well, but just word choice in general.
