The Thread Where You Talk About Music You Like

both, right?

 

[Mr_Haze]

add Internal Void to nec's list.

 

[Mr_Haze]

and I'll add Mood, Krux, Tefra, Shepherd, Memory Garden (maybe not so much..), Dawn of Winter.

I'm going to check out several out of your list that I don't know, thanks. I checked out some tracks of Iron Man and I really like them but can't seem to track down any full albums on soulseek...

Edit: On a similar note, I still havn't heard any Wretched. Have you? They have had some worthy names in their lineup... are they worth checking out?

Edit2: and I have to check out Stillborn too...

Cianide - "Hell's Rebirth"
Really cool death metal.

 

[Mr_Haze]

That's the one. I'm going to keep my eye out for them.

Listening to Spiritus Mortis for the first time, and liking it. I wish I ventured into this style of music sooner...

Unleashed 'across the open sea (song/intrumental) reminds me of the movie 'a nightmare before christmas'.

I think more extreme bands should have clean guitars or acoustic guitars. I'm not saying bands need to go full out like Opeth, but 1 or a few of these on an album really give everything more dimension and diversity, and also a traditional feel. Acoustic guitars can be weird/dark/evil/menacing. The acoustic section on Dissection 'unhallowed' towards the end for example. Sometimes metal music seems to even get more evil with acoustics and clean parts. I like metal to sound like it's coming from nothingness/abyss. Sacrilege has some really sinister acoustics for example. Acoustics and clean guitars really do demenstrate someone's capability and diversity as a musician over a lot of techniques and approaches. If you can't sound good on a clean instrument that demenstrates you are not a good musician. Musicians showing what they sound like without distortion is very nice sometimes.

Miasma - Drowning In Blood has the coolest acoustic section(s) ever.

 

[Wires & Waves]

not so much acoustic parts specifically, but much of metal is sorely lacking in interesting dynamics other than fast/slow and the occasional quiet/loud, and even these are pretty rare

ironically the album i mentioned in my above post is one of the worst culprits of this tendency

Pure Holocaust

 

[CF87]

I like 'enjoy the violence' more. Massacra seem more focused on getting across ideas.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Enjoy The Violence is a little bit better, but both are stunning.

Miasma - Drowning In Blood has the coolest acoustic section(s) ever.

What about the opening and ending of Molested - Forlorn as a Mist of Grief

 

[cookiecutter]

My favorite clean guitar parts are Silent Death from Destroying Divinity - ...Created... and A Seed For the Suffering from Nachtmystium - Instinct: Decay

Also very good but the break from acoustic to GRAAAAAAGH in the Miasma song is beyond awesome.

 

[Wires & Waves]

OPETH

It's one of my favorite tracks @ Miasma. I shall put it on after The Gates of Slumber

 

[Astrum]

OPETH

The necessity of that post was paramount.
