Metal Music Discussion

[Frozen Sky]

Edit: Speaking of Death, today marks the 4th anniversary since Chuck Sculdiner's death. R.I.P.

RIP Chuck

Check out Carnage (They were the band before Dismember I think, can't remember)

[Seraphis Cain]

I recommend people check out a Japanese metal band called MUCC. They're awesome.

[Seraphis Cain]

Never mind.

[Skinner8]

Oh right. What do you crazy kids think about Zeromancer? It's metal-ish, at least, and I've been enjoying it for a while.

Hey, I used to like P.O.D.(a Christian nu metal band). But then I found my religious awakening with Deicide.

Me too brotha! ..Except I never liked POD

We're gonna make a song based on 'King of All Kings' by Hate Eternal, and we're calling it 'The King of All Chinks' and it'll sound hilarious when it's done.

'I my communion, I reign white-supremely
I AM THE KING OF ALL CHIIIIIIINKS!!!!!'

Don't take it too seriously, it's just a joke. None of us in the "band" are racist. Yeah, we don't call ourselves a band (at least not me), since we hardly ever play and we suck

I have a cover of a Nile song "Unas, Slayer of the Gods", I renamed it: "Anus, Layer of the Logs". (c) some dude at the Nile forums.

Never heard of Zeromancer. Will check out Carnage. Nihilist are pretty good Swedish DM too, they were the band before they changed their name to Entombed.

I've been listening to a lot of Death and Atheist nowadays. I love their technicality man, it's so different from plain death metal but not over-the-top like modern tech. DM, like say Necrophagist, Deeds of Flesh or Decrepit Birth. I've heard of Cynic and Crionics, are they anything like these 2 bands? Anyone know any other oldschool DM bands like Atheist and Death?

Cynic is the shit. They're not very similar to Atheist and Death because these guys are more experimental. Their only album Focus is simply amazing. Very technical jazzy riffage and such unique vocals. They hired Tony Teegarden to do the death metal vocals because Paul Masvidal was on the verge of losing his voice. On Focus, there's a very odd mix of both death metal vocals and clean ones done by Paul. And the clean ones have very weird effects on them that make it sound like a robot. Very weird but sounds great. Great band.

As for other old school tech death bands, check out Pestilence. Tony Choy played bass for all 3 bands at one point or another... Atheist, Cynic, and Pestilence...

[Frozen Sky]

Oh yea I forgot to mention Autopsy, not that technical but old school death metal...

Cynic are a bit like Atheist (one or two members of Atheist went on to play in Cynic, I believe), but with a lighter, more artificial sound (although thats mostly from the production and the singers voice) and a more experimental song structures. They only put out one album, Focus, which is pretty damn good.

I cant really comment on other oldscholl TDM bands, as I'm only just getting into it myself

How the hell do you edit albums on Metal archives? I go to 'edit' and there's no options for me to edit/update! I'm gonna be fucking famous with this edit I'm doing I just registered too.

Edit: Ah, fuck it, I don't even care anymore All it was was the song 'Penetration' on Behemoth's Slaves Shall Serve EP. The name has it as a cover of 'The Nefilim' when it should be 'Fields Of Nephilim'
It makes me wonder why the fuck I cared in the first place

[Tancred]

Unless you have acquired like 1000 points and your rank is veteran you can't edit information. You can ADD and report mistakes. But unless you have enough sufficient proof to correct the mistake, the mods are gonna be ignorant assholes and not do it. I swear man half of Necronomicon's discography have the incorrect tracklist. I showed them the link from classicthrash.org with the correct info as proof and they didn't do jack shit about it.

And Countess had 2 more members. I sent them the link from the official Countess website showing these 2 guys. This is 100% proof and of course they didn't add them...

Fields of Nephilim... that's a band that Nergal of Behemoth really likes(and has covered).

Will grab Cynic. Already had Crionics and Autopsy's discog. and they're now on my iPod. Gotta fix the track titles for some songs... I have "No artist" showing up for half of the Kreator albums on my iPod.

[Seraphis Cain]

I need to get rid of some more crap.....My recent music spree has eaten up a ton of space on my HD.....I think nearly half of my 55 GB hard drive is music now.
