I HATED epitaph. It was nowhere near as explosive or as engaging as Onset of putrefaction, it sounded more like robots playing a guitar/drum/bass solo than a group of cohesive musicians (if that makes sense)

I liked Epitaph, although not as much as the awesome Onset Of Putrefaction.

To the guy looking for tech-death, check out Septycal Gorge. Probably not the most technical band, but they remind me of Cenotaph, who you already listen to.

 

[skeptik]

How are Torturer (Chl)?

Good.

 

[Disarmonia_Mundi]

Anyone have any reco's for me. I'm looking for bands that are similiar to Lyzanxia's UNSU album..

 

[Hatebreeder]

No, he's actually fucking right, despite that sounding like merely another bigdave-ism...it's my belief, also, that Epitaph sounds more mechanical and forced than Onset... which is just hilarious and ironic given the circumstances!!

Strangely enough. Maybe Muhammed Suicmez does better when he doesn't have the pesky ideas of other musicians.

On topic:

Thoughts on Fireball Ministry?

Best Motorhead album excepting Ace of Spades?

 

[skeptik]

Iron Fist or Overkill (guess which question I'm answering)

 

[Blacken the angel]

Recommend me some Instrumental Metal.

 

[Life Sucks]

I'm looking for some heavy metal with harsh vocals. And I'm not talking about CoB type stuff. I just discovered a band called Ambehr, and they are a good example of what I'm looking for.

Apocalyptica. They are awesome. Metalheads who play cellos. They also work with Dave Lombardo (Slayer's drummer) and Mikko Siren (great independed drummer). They've made great instrumental covers on Metallica too. I've seen them live, trust me, they kick asses.
You can hear them here - http://myspace.com/apocalyptica

Also check out Judas Iscariot - Heaven in Flames. A half of the album is instrumental.

 

[entanglement]

^ Get ther album 'Cult' if you end up going for it.

 

[Disarmonia_Mundi]

No Lyzanxia fans here eh?

http://www.myspace.com/lyzanxiaband < Lyzanxia

Anyone have reco's for me that sound like them?

 

[Blacken the angel]

^^Thanks, but I know Apocalyptica,I'll check out the other album you mentioned.

 

[Disarmonia_Mundi]

Weird request, but does anyone know any bands who have used "Video game" themes in their songs similiar to

Eternal Tears of Sorrow - Aurora Borealis (Zelda)

Would be pretty funny to listen to some other video game themed songs

Aurora Borealis actually a kickass song too

I don't know that band, but maybe Devil Lee Rot and Heathen Hoof are what you're after. And earlier Goat Horn (namely Storming The Gates). Give them a listen and if that's what you're looking for, I'll try to think of some more.

HORSE the Band

Don't know if it's similar to that song because I've never heard that song, but HORSE the Band are very video game oriented, using video game music and lyrics based on characters like Cutman about the Mega Man boss.

Gah, I mention looking for metal bands with interesting use of instruments and no one brings them up. They kick so much ass, are there any other awesome bands with interesting instrument use that you guys have been hiding from me?

What kind of instruments? I always love me some Turisas when I want some sweet folk metal

Trumpets/Flutes etc. very good shit.

 

[NinjaGeek]

any non-standard instruments really as long as they're used well and fit in with the metal sound. Already explored a lot of folk metal like Turisas, Korpiklaani, In Extremo, and many others. Just curious if there are any bands like this Cello Metal band Apocalyptica who really do things differently, or maybe some Folk Metal bands thave have really interesting instrument choices (Like how In Extremo has 2 bag pipes and a harp). I like weird music and I like metal.
