Please, this is laughable. You tell me that Cannibal Corpse is LESS generic than Behemoth? That's just a joke. Believe me, I like Cannibal Corpse, but they have absolutely no originality nowadays. Yes, Nergal sounds different in GROM compared to their demos and first album, but he has IMPROVED greatly from his beginning.

Not going to bother with that any longer, since it's just opinion anyway and this "argument" could go on forever....

Yes... Generic comes in many varieties. CC may seem more generic now, but when they started they were original. They invented the genre of Gore Metal. I mean, bands like Gorerotted are only copying CC. And ever heard Meshuggah? They are the master of energy. Get Destroy Erase Improve and you will get destroyed by their energy. Or get "Grand Declaration Of War" by Mayhem.

Have it, love it. It's awesome, but I'm not sure if it's their best. I also love "Chaosphere". Have you seen the video track to "New Millenium Cyanide Christ"? It's hilarious :)

Anyone know a good Old Mans Child cd because i was thinking about going to get one.

oh and i wanted to check out Krinsin

You are going to be the lead singer? With what singer can your voice be compared?

Damn, Ive been really creative with photoshop latley.
I tweaked the Metal Hell sig, feel free to use either version;

Well I dont know any cd's by Old Mans Child,but the song Revelation Obscure is a good song. And Krisiun is a great band. I would recommend all of their cd's but mainly Ageless Venomous and Conquerors Of Armageddon. Their new CD, Bloodshed, has some new and old songs. But the new songs are nothing to new or intresting, but nonetheless its good.

Krisiun is not a bad band, but they are not that original. They play almost the same stuff since 1990 or so. A little varity in their music would really help them.

Hey guys, just checking in again, as you all know, the hardrive situation hasn't gotten any better. I've been working on guitar a lot and came up with an awesome riff in drop D
it only uses the top three strings, and is played moderately slow

D|-----0-----0-------2-------0-----0
A|---0-----0------0-------5-----7---
D|-0-----0-----0-------3-----5------

it's ok, really easy, but sounds cool

I'm in a one man band called "Midian" and my guitars are cold and sort of like Euronymous, but without the crippling lack of technical ability. My drums are relatively fast, and my vokills cannot be compared to many else. You will just have to listen to material.

Oh, and to be clear, Mr_SaMsON is not an alt of mine. He lives in pinole, I live in El Sobrante, and he's a few years younger than me. If it ever appears he's an alt, he's not.

Any Borknagar fans out there?

by the way that whole euronymous sucked post you guys that wasnt me. My cousin goes onmy name and forgets to change it so he end us postng stuff that pisses people of at me. Most posts about metal and stuff are his just to clarify. I think i'll make sure he doesnt do that.

Yeah, they are good, so are Vintersorg. Borknagar's better though. What's your favourite album? Mine is Empiricism, my favourite song by them is "The Genuine Pulse"

Empiricism is tied with The Olden Domain. I don't have a favourite song, but I have ones I like better, like "To Mount And Rove", "Grimland Domain", "Dawn of The End", "Inherit The Earth", "Oceans Rise", "Dauden", "Liberated", "Soul Sphere", "The Stellar Dome", and "The View of Everlast"

Ditto with Darkthrone, circa 1991 or 1992. Since Blaze In The Northern Sky, they have been doing the same thing, only with a little tonal tweaking. They have been playing the same melodies and the same song styles. The production's changed (From dry, cold and hoarse to organic, grainy, and overwashed), but the songs are still basically the same.

One band that HAS changed is, of course, Mayhem. Every time they release a new CD, they revolutionize Black Metal. They reinvent the genre with every new release. They, instead of repeating themselves for yaers and yaers, they do new stuff. Some of it is controversial (Grand Declaration of War) and some is celebrated (DMDS), but all of it breaks new boundaries.

Any suggestions for my audio submissions? I would ask you to review them, but I'd rather have an in depth conversation. Please be constructive; I hate ppl who just say that I suck and don't give any reasons why and/or are extremely abusive.

I agree completely. I was never really a fan, though.

DMDS ain't a bad album, but I'm just not a fan of Mayhem either. I don't know, I don't enjoy the "raw" kind of black metal so much. I prefer the real symphonic BM stuff(not electronic half black metal like Dimmu) like Limbonic Art. They are probably my favourite BM band out there.

ive seen you mention limbonic art alot but aggrovatingly they dont have a website from which i can download some samples, which of the albums could you recommend?

They don't have a website because they split up two years ago :(

If you want an album, you should definatley check out "Epitome of Illusions". It's amazing.

Mayhem isn't that raw. Listen to Chimera or Grand Declaration of War or Wolf's Lair Abyss and you will see what I mean. Borknagar was rawer when they released "The Olden Domain" in 97 or 98. DMDS isn't that raw, either. The production is heavily modified, and Dissection is rawer, still.

Dissection has more of a live-feeling, but the production itself is better. The guitar and the bass are easier to hear and the vocals are superior anyway.

I think, that Mayhem's Deathcrush EP is a lot rawer than anything by Borknagar.

Nailbomb is also a good band.

Speakingof good bands, Annihilator is one. For the last two days I've heard Alice in Hell at least 4 times and it's pure greatness. You could say that they take the best of Slayer and Megadeth and mix it together creating something absolutely awesome.
