I know basically everyone here is a massive slam fan.
Is it true that slam is one of the most hated genres in metal? If so, why? I just got Devourment's entire discography along with Awaiting The Autopsy's "Couldn't Tell The Bodies Apart" and I haven't listened to anything else in the last few days.
Is Gorguts' Obscura out of print? I ask this because, for some reason, it's like 50 quid on Amazon. I wouldn't have thought that an album that's still being produced would cost so much. I understand that it's one of the most technical death metal albums of all time but there's no way I'm paying that much to get it on a CD when I could download it for £7.99 on iTunes and then put it on a disc anyway. Does anyone know where I could get it in CD form cheaply?
Ebay would be your best bet. Just check up on it every week or so. Prices will fluctuate quite alot but if you check up consistently then you'll get one for cheap eventually.
I hate most of it because most of it's ridiculously bland and generic. Plus the album production is always terrible sounding. I actually used to like it quite alot but one day I put it on and realized that I disliked everything about it.
I dont see how slam is really that hated... shit, it's pretty much the fastest growing genre of metal at this point.
