Dawn Of Possession.

What he said

 

[Knifehappy]

What's a good song by these bands to get me started:

Carcass
Damageplan
Black Label Society
Soilwork

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Carcass- Black Star, Heartwork
Black Label Society- Doomsday Jesus
Soilwork- As We Speak, Natural Born Chaos

All should suit you well.

 

[cookiecutter]

Carcass - Incarnated Solvent Abuse is good too

 

[DarkBliss]

Carcass

The entirety of their Necroticism album is a good start

 

[ohiogrinder]

whats a good place to start with Goatwhore?

 

[~Neurotica]

I love their last album.

They don't really have any albums that are very good, but pieces of all their albums are OK.

 

[Hammer of Might]

Are there any other bands who pull off the darkened heavy metal sound of Dissection with such ingenious use of dual guitar work and majestic (yet still aggressive) songwriting?

 

[cookiecutter]

Naglfar maybe

 

[skeptik]

No, definitely not...

 

[cookiecutter]

Ok, I was unsure exactly what he was asking for.

 

[Zephyrus]

Speaking of Naglfar, Jens Ryden's solo project Profundi just released the new album The Omega Rising. This might be worth checking out.

 

[cookiecutter]

I am always wary of side projects. Is it just him or a full band?

 

[Zephyrus]

Just him, but from preliminary reviews, this sounds promising. I'll pick it up soon and see for myself.

 

[Scarifier]

Has anyone heard Thorns - Thorns and do you recommend it.

At the moment i am using soulseek to download stuff... but it doesn't have everything i search for like this album. What do you all use again (sorry i have seen all you post this bullshit before but i never took note)

It's an okay album. It loses points when it strays too far into experimental elements that don't work. If it were a straightforward metal album, it would probably be better. The guitar sound is dry and rather unique, but there aren't enough riffs that really pay off. I'm sure there are many other albums to track down before this one.
