Themed Mixtape Game

Could it be... Satan? - 5 Admittedly one of the better bands in this vein of metal. However This song was fairly generic and did not capture the theme musically at all. Perhaps lyrically, but that is only part of the battle. Also not exactly an off the beaten path band in these parts.

Defeated Sanity - 7 lol, intros are not brootal enough for us warthogs. Musically thematic and I have no fuvking idea on the lyrics.

Dying Fetus - 6 constipation bros. I like that there were slightly contrasting vocalists, but there could have been more variety for the individual singers as well. Some moments bordering on nu metal..

Seventh Angel - 8.5 what a fun fucking song. It's all over the place, and the vocals made me chuckle yet evoked punishment at the same time.

Blind Guardian - 2 pls, no more blind guardian, not even going to finish this

Exodus - 8 this is one of their later albums that still has some worthy moments, the first half of this song is one. I can feel anger and pain coming from this musically, sure.

The Chasm - 9 this is one band that actually deserves the hype they get around here. This sounds good and evil. Tight musicianship.

Burzum - 4 and here's a band that doesn't. Sloppy and annoying often. It's still better than some of the music in these games.

Dread Sovereign - 5 points for the vocalist. The music is exceptionally boring, is this metal or a lullaby? He deserves a better band.

Iced Earth - 6 decent, too long

Thunder Rider - 5 I hear some untapped potential. Too bad they didn't tap it.

Slayer - 5 oh so this is what Slayer would sound like trying to cover a 5 finger death punch song. Sounds try hardy like someone above said for sure.

Starlight - 9 wow this is great. Will have to check out more of them soon.
 
This sounded really wicked and evil. I had to look up the lyrics and I'm honestly not sure if this is a good song for this theme. I thought it was weird.

I interpreted it as someone dying and expecting to go to hell, but instead going to heaven and the person interprets it as punishment and intends to somehow get to hell.

I could be way off though.
 
I have no idea I don't listen to that junk

Edit oh you changed your tone, I'll change mine too then. Oh ok I'll check it out, though metallum says folk metal..

I could see you appreciating Primordial. Problem is, their albums tend to vary just enough to likely divide your opinion on them based on which album you listen to first.
 
I've adored Primordial over the years so I see where you're coming from but lately the more I listen the more grating Nemtheanga's vocals are, and as they are a big part of the band they just ruin the music for me. I mean he is passionate for sure, but alot of times he is just off key and sounds awkward.

Spirit the Earth Aflame is their best work though for sure. Gods to the Godless is the best song they've done.
 
Yeah, I could never get into Primordial's debut. However, Opeth's first two are enjoyable. The only Opeth records I don't really like are Heritage and Deliverance.
