These are all good, but it's Devastate under Hallucination

You need to get Human Rejection and Down From the Wound

 

[Henrik Main]

1. Crap, you're right, of course!
2. Crap, Human Rejection should've been in my top 10, editing my list now!
3. Down From The Wound is pretty shitty

...Down From The Wound are NOT shitty!!!

 

[Henrik Main]

I dunno, there's absolutely no logic to my tastes in slam death. I worship Despondency, Abominable Putridity, Ingested, Crepitation and Infernal Revulsion, but I actually dislike Devourment, Cephalotripsy and quite a few other similar bands. It's pretty absurd, and I can't really explain why. If pushed, I'd probably claim that the former bands are more groovy and have a more "flowing" vibe going on (if that makes sense), plus you can actually make out all the riffs.

Granted, the only Down From The Wound songs I've heard are the ones on their Myspace, so I might have been a little to quick to write them off; but I found those songs really mediocre.

 

[False Joe]

Excellent song, the album's best along with "Infernal Phantom Kingdom".

What band is this?

 

[Henrik Main]

Limbonic Art

 

[False Joe]

Cheers.

I know what you mean, I am this way with a lot of black metal. It's weird that you can like Abominable Putrdity, a direct clone of Devourment, and not Devourment itself.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

That's definitely true...HM, you're a weirdo.

 

[Life Sucks]

Crackdust - Dented Reality will certainly be in my top 10 of 2007. I've been spinning it like there's no tomorrow. It sounds like it was recorded in the early 90s, both in terms of production and songwriting. It's straightforward, downtuned, old school death metal. I wonder if the old school feel has something to do with the bands location (Botswana, Africa).

 

[BloodSword]

Album of the Year 2007- Primordial-"To the Nameless Dead." Also digging Shining-"V.Halmstad."

 

[Life Sucks]

To the Nameless Dead is my favorite of 2007 as well. And V Halmstad is also a great album would rank in my top 10 of the year.

What's with your obsession with African metal?

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

Because the thought of someone playing metal besides a white guy is refreshing.
