Nevermore noob here

[Will Bozarth]

yus!

Nevermore needs to do a light ballads-only album. those are the tracks that always stand out the most to me

 

[DreamNeonBlack]

YOU LIE!

on ceti alpha V there was life! a fair chance!

THIS IS CETI ALPHA FIVE!



Ceti Alpha 6 exploded six months after we were left here. The shock shifted the orbit of the planet and everything was laid waste...

I mean I like all nevermore albums, but after ridiculous amounts of listens I like the dissonance in PoE, DNB, and EoR.

Dead Heart and TGE while very good have this kind of consonant "epic" kind of vibe going that I guess I don't like as much.

 

[Will Bozarth]

and your synopsis of the self titled and In Mammary?

 

[Superior]

I don't listen to them very often so I don't have one? =\

 

[Will Bozarth]

so... you don't have them, I take it.

 

[Superior]

So who can't wait for the new Enslaved video of "The Watcher"?!

 

[Will Bozarth]

so, when are you getting the self titled and In Mammary?

 

[Shpongled]

TGE >>>>>>> EoR

 

[Dead Winter]

It sounds strange, but I agree. Well, actually it's not so strange because their ballads are my favorite of any band. It could be a really good idea.

I still love Believe in Nothing, and most people hate DHIADW. I think their ballads allow Warrel to really shine vocally.

 

[Shpongled]

I love their progressive elements... like the entire middle section of TGE title track. I wish they'd do a lot more stuff like that.

Fact: The TGE title track is the best NM song since 1999.

 

[Superior]

Born > EoR
Final Product < Ambivalent
My Acid Words < Never Purify
Bittersweet Feast < Tomorrow Turned Into Yesterday
Sentient 6 > I, Voyager
Medicated Nation < Create The Infinite
Sell My Heart For Stones < Noumenon
Psalm of Lydia + Future Uncertain = Who Decides
TGE < Seed Awakening

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

You are both gay and lying.

 

[Swabs]

Fact: The TGE title track is the best NM song since 1999.

Agreed.

 

[Will Bozarth]

all of that is accurate but the last one. "the masses love the death show" makes me giggle

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

It's a fact, whether or not you agree with it is irrelevant!

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

all of that is accurate but the last one. "the masses love the death show" makes me giggle

he wrote it like that because "Donkey show" didn't fit with the vocal rhythm.

 

[Dead Winter]

I think TGE was a phenomenal album and song for song above EoR. However, I think there was a real lack of songs that truly grab you in TGE aside from the title track and Sentient 6.

I've found myself shying away from overly progressive stuff. Why does Primordial give me a shiver with their simple, 3/4 time and "terzini" found in most folk music? It's not difficult, but GODDAMMIT it grabs you by the fucking balls and doesn't let go. Shining example would be Empire Falls. Conversely, why does the complexity and wizardry of a band I love equally such as Nevermore leave me a little flat sometimes? Personal tastes of course, but I think that good songwriting does not equal exemplary playing.
