I think parts of it certainly were, unless we're using different terms to describe the heavier parts of the album i.e. the first section of 'Wreath', the first half of the title track, and so forth.

awesome, thanks for those

Glad you enjoyed them, and you're welcome.

OK, so now that we know you two agree with each other, you think you could stop the respective back patting long enough to inform us what you'd consider DELIVERANCE to be?

I know.

I know better than you.

If this wasn't clear to you before,death metal with progressive elements.

Not to pat anyone's back, but I'm quite sure that Deliverance doesn't really have any black metal involved. Sure, it's theme is dark, and it's heavy, but in a DM sorta way...minus the prolonged blast beats, screeching vox and dronish guitars that sometimes typifies black metal.

cue hardcore black metal fans to bite my head off.

 

[Suicide Nation]

who cares? we all know that it's amazing, so what's the big deal?

 

[Katabasis]

fair enough then

categories pretty much suck. The only thing they're really useful for is describing to others the ballpark sound that a band has. And even then it's pretty sketchy.
