The Thread Where You Talk About Music You Like

[Hatebreeder]

I'm thinking of picking up Chimera. How is it compared to DMDS? In terms of how the music differs.

The production is much cleaner and chunkier and the vocals are screamed more often than the dark spoken narratives like that of DMDS.

EDIT: also, the riffs are more melodic somehow and the overall musicality gives off a blackened death vibe.

 

[Zephyrus]

Cool. I'll be sure to pick it up in the near future. I've been buying a lot of albums off the Season of Mist label recently.

 

[Hatebreeder]

A lot of my recent albums have come from Nuclear Blast. I didn't realize they held so many quality bands. Along with Century Media and Metal Blade, they are among my favorite larger labels.

 

[Zephyrus]

My favorite labels are Season of Mist, Century Media, Nuclear Blast, Candlelight and Moonfog. In no order.

 

[Hammer of Might]

Invictus is cool, but I don't really have a "favourite label"

 

[Matt]

I like Candlelight myself

 

[Nico]

Invictus is cool, but I don't really have a "favourite label"

Invictus is ver' cool, because Darragh is practically an honourary Aussie, but his last name is O'Leary. Best of both worlds, frankly.

 

[Hammer of Might]

Is Poison's Into the Abyss still available?

I've only come across the Further Into The Abyss compilation so far...

I don't recall ever not liking Zarathustra besides, of course, before I actually heard them.

Had to dig this up to ensure I wasn't going crazy:

Zarathustra. Black/thrashers take note. More on the black side of things, but thrashy as fuck.

Meh. They're on the bottom rung of the style. I prefer Suicidal Winds.

 

[Hammer of Might]

He got served.

Had to dig this up to ensure I wasn't going crazy:

Haha, I went to the thread that post was originally from and holy fuck, a year has gone by and I am now amazed at what an idiot I was back then.

 

[Hammer of Might]

I prefer not to dredge the archives for that reason. But yeah, been here more than three years now

 

[Mort Divine]

It amazes me even more because I know in another year I'll find a post from me here and realize just how fucking stupid I was then, and the year after the same will happen.

A goddamned vicious cycle.

So, Dodenz, are you looking forward to the new Pagan Altar?

 

[Nico]

It's looking like a fucking winner. The artwork looks fantastic, the lyrics are superb, and if it's out this year, it'll top my list for sure.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Mass Psychosis is fucking amazing. All fans of psychotic old-school tech-death heed my advice, and seek out Face. Particularly those of you into bands like Atheist, Nocturnus and Brutality.

 

[DarkBliss]

Sold

 

[DarkBliss]

I've said it before but it won't hurt to repeat-Desultory's Into Eternity is utterly fantastic melodic death

 

[Slayed Necros]

Indeed it is. Bitterness isn't too bad either.
