I remember Ghoul sending me Kinetic by Arcturus and I didn't really listen to it until like 2 years later. T'was jaw dropping when I actually did.
Liberals defend the exploitation of man by man, Conservatives defend the reverse.
Im addicted to this song even thou it's not metal or a real band.
No not Dethklock

The only thing I remember Ghoul introducing me to was Savatage but I'm still very grateful for that. If it weren't for him, I still wouldn't have checked out Savatage.

No matter the fuck what you like, these bands have both brought metal to another level with their creativity and originality and you dare to say Gorod are a copy of Necrophagist? Fuck you!

He also sent me some middle-to-late Ulver which I got into. I deleted the songs with all my none-full-album stuff but I'd imagine nowadays I'd like them, given that I like Ulver... makes sense.
He introduced to me Allen & Lande as well, which again I listened to months later :P.

I'm not gonna dickride Death just because they're the biggest DM band. Gorod? Mediocre would be a complement. I wouldn't even call that shallow wank music.

They pretty much are. I don't see how it's that hard to understand. There's nothing creative or original about abandoning songwriting so you can focus more on sweeps. Plus, they bree. Speaks for itself. But then again, something must be wrong with me if I can't enjoy a song that's pretty much a sterile guitar solo. Stop being so butthurt. I just don't like those bands. I don't go telling people to fuck off like you just did to me because they don't like the bands I do. /shrug

You can think what you want about Gorod being better. (I'm serious, and not being sarcastic.) But dude, have you ever even listened to Immolation? They're nothing like Suffocation. They're not even technical enough to be noted.

Ha, yeah. I forgot about Cannibal Corpse.
I wouldn't call Gorod wank music, period. And this coming from a guy who hates technical wankery.
I know, I just said that to see how people would react. In the song I listened to, after the bree/sterile scale run it went back to some repetitive riffing. The kind you might see in deathcore. Nothing special, or even likable, but it definitely shows they know what a riff is. Unlike Necrophagist.
How about you start hating on bands that actually do spend their whole time sweeping and soloing, like Brain Drill and Viraemia?
Because I don't follow techdeath. But those two are definitely horrible.
No, you go telling people they're stupid for liking bands you don't.
I've never done that.
That's not why Ponos made the comparision. He compared them because they're both old school death metal bands.
Oh, I thought he was putting them in the same camp as Suffocation.

I wouldn't say their songs are sterile guitar solos; the bass does logical counter melodies with the guitar riffs, and the drums follow the style of the song. The songs are pretty cohesive, even if they change riff every four seconds. Necrophagist, on the other hand, doesn't have songs, just vehicles for guitar soloing, so it would be accurate to say that Necrophagist is one big guitar solo. I wouldn't go so far as to apply that label to Gorod. I'm not even a huge Gorod fan (I've only heard maybe five or six songs by them), but I'd say they're a pretty great tech death band. If you don't like tech death, I don't really think you should be hating on them. That's what's ruining the metal-archives; cocks who hate a genre and review albums anyway.
Related note: Atheist. Thoughts?
On a related note, I wouldn't go so far as to say that Death are one of the biggest death metal bands. Though they're very important to the style's development, in my experience they aren't as popular as other death metal bands. A casual death metal fan is far more likely to listen to Cannibal Corpse, Nile, melodeath and Gothenburg, Morbid Angel, and Opeth. Again, that's just from my experience. I'd say that's mostly because Death doesn't really sound like the death metal we know, especially after their first few albums. Their last albums really aren't any one genre, really.
When the shit did all the Necrophagist hatred start? I think they're good, though they need a high volume to make it intense, otherwise they do sound a bit bland to listen to. But thats just Tech Death really, apart from Demilich :D.

Never listened to them, because they're always mentioned next to Cynic, a band I dislike immensely. I don't care for jazz/dm hybrid bands.

They're pretty good, so you'd probably hate them.
Jokes aside, I doubt you would like them, since they change riffs more often than Gorod or Necrophagist.
Necrophagist could be so much better if their songs actually had good rhythm and more solid structures instead of constant solos.
Also what is everyone's thoughts on Bloodbath? They're Tech death.

Sudden riff/tempo changes don't bother me much, unless they're used in the way they are in most modern techdeath bands. Yo, check out this. Band I've been into a lot lately, they're pretty otherworldy. Think Demilich, but nowhere near as technical. Thoughts on it?

There is a difference between wanking and good technical work. If you can really make the technical riff fit in your song, than why would it be a problem. Bands like Gorod and Origin have very good, creative, brutal and technical riffs. The thruth is that these riffs are very coherent in the music. They add something very nice to the melodies. I can tell the difference from a guitar wanker and a real good tech death guitarist for I am myself a fan of Tech Death. And I can tell you that a lot of tech death bands fit the description you gave us earlier, but it's not the case for Gorod.
I don't mind you saying that you dislike a band. But I hate it when you come back with the same false arguments to diss the same band or genre.

Screw that! Origin =/= bland
Necrophagist are getting boring really fast though. That's true, but don't go saying all Tech Death is like that.

I've always wondered how you could hate a band for being creative... Even if you don't like the genre. They are good at what they do... regardless of your tastes, you should be able to respect their work.

All I hear is dicks dicks and dick. Shut up and listen to some metal heretic!
I've taken a liking to this band Nazgul over the years. Ponos probably remembers loling at them a while back but they're great if you like Summoning and other epic black metal with lots of synth. I've also been listening to Austere which have very similar shrieky pigeon-ey vocals. You guys know of any other bands with vocals like this?
