[Hell Awaits Us All]

I see

structurally speaking, I didn't see any such problems with the album - I found almost every song on the album very catchy + melodic

That's another thing I don't like about them. Melody generally gives me the shits.

Satanstoenail: I am not sure if this fits perfectly with what you are looking for, but either of Defeated Sanity's albums feature heavy riffs and a thick production.

Cheers, yeah it's a bit more brutal death than I was after but it's not too bad.

Satanstoenail: Check out Nox - Ixaxaar and Visceral Bleeding - Remnants of Deprivation.

Gorod - Leading Vision

 

[CF87]

Meshuggah - Catch 33

I call this the rubber band album because the E chugging sounds like rubber bands!

After you hit one note for so long it starts sounding like a rubber band!

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

I find Meshuggah to be repetitive and boring.

Feel free to recommend bands that play black metal in the vein of Merrimack, Antaeus and Tsjuder.

Satanstoenail: Check out Nox - Ixaxaar

YES

I've been listening to this almost non-stop the last four days. Superb death metal with that special Dutch touch. Kind of reminds me of CENTURIAN or old SEVERE TORTURE in places, top notch stuff.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

averse sefira were a little bit antaeus-ish at one stage, actually

I have only heard Tetragrammatical Astygmata what's the best place to go next?

 

[cookiecutter]

It seems that Antaeus is the band of the week around here. Their name keeps popping up.

Cut Your Flesh and Worship Satan is some of the most chaotic Black Metal I have ever heard, and deserves a fair amount of recognition

 

[cookiecutter]

I won't deny that they do, it just seems that everybody is now mentioning them all at once.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Every decent band has their run.

I find Meshuggah to be repetitive and boring.

I didn't see it.

Merrimack:
Hail

Hail sound absolutely nothing like Merrimack.

Henrik, check out Eternal Majesty and Flamma Aeterna.
