Not too bad… at least the thread is starting to revert back to Death Metal…

touche, although nothing wrong with other genres
I saw Opeth, at the Boston House of Blues last night. They played too many songs off of Watershed for my personal taste haha. They played The Lotus Eater though so that makes it okay. They also went back and played stuff from Morningrise, Still Life, Blackwater Park, and Deliverance so I was a pretty happy boy. They did a “ballad” section which was kind of lame. Not many of the good ones, IMO.
Oh and Enslaved ruled but the tom sound was fucking horrible where I was. I was hoping they would play Path to Vanir but they didn’t. Still pretty good.
For some reason wiggers like Opeth now and tried every opportuanity they had to start mosh pits, even during the acoustic sections. Epic fail.

LOL
Oh well…
Got a hold of 2 Scarve albums (who the fuck would call a “death” band… Scarve!? Them French people are weird).
First is irradiant, which I liked overall. Even had one of the meshuggah guitarists help with one of the songs, and it sounds sort of like… old-school Meshuggah. Cool.
Dirk Verbeuren is a better drummer than I expected after all his soilwork material…
Even got the meshuggah-style down pat… Sounded slightly more interesting than Haake’s own stuff (on the meshuggaesque song, I mean, not on the rest of the album necessarily), but don’t quote me on it… I only listened to the whole album once thus far.
Second album is their “new” one from 07… The Undercurrent.
Only listened to it via pc and decent headphones, but I must say the other album sounded better overall. Had less bass in the kickdrums, but huh… The kickdrums drowned out everything else a bit on The Undercurrent, but still had no bite. Maybe it’ll sound more balanced over my Hi-Fi + Sennheiser Audiophile-headphones.
Suffice to say I didn’t really get much out of that album, despite it’s many similarities to irradiant…
Oh yeah guys, I keep forgetting about the damn review thread, so fuck it, if one of you can come up with a witty intro-post, start the thread…
I’m spending too much time thinking about how to do that damn bb article/post/thread, and am overall busy enough 
Got a bunch of more interesting albums, esp. for Detty and anyone interested in more than death metal:
Second track actually features what I’m assuming is some neat remote hi-hat pedal-work (didn’t bother counting to see if he’s playing 2 over 3 or whatever, I don’t think so, but it’s the same style you see Derek Roddy doing on faceless ones and other such HE tracks… Though the drummer here may be using one hand on a hi-hat to replace one foot, not sure).
Didn’t bother much with the other tracks yet, but Zickenterror (well, bitch-terror is a rough translation, bitch as in “that girl sure is a bitch”), while sounding kind of annoying, has some real interesting vocal performances… Basically a guy and his girl fighting over a bunch of stuff like how he should clean up more or whatever. Sounds bavarian, dialect-wise, so I don’t even understand all of it.
The interesting part is how the vocalists manage to stay in the rhythm etc…
Well, that’s all I can say about the album thus far.
Ok, now here comes an album that has 1 track on it I keep listening to again and again, don’t even know anything about the rest of the album yet:
Dark Suns - Grave Human Genuine - Flies In Amber
That track is great, doomy sort of, with some middle-eastern stuff going on, intricate drum parts though not flashy at all, and they’re not just using guitars as lead instruments there…
Singer sounds a bit like the nevermore guy but less… Forced/annoying at times (hey, I like much of Warrel’s stuff, but he can sometimes sound so whiney…)… And a better death-voice imo. (or IS this Warrel?)
9+ minute song, solo near the end… Love it overall, though it took me several listens to get into it.
And finally… I think SSC saw them live? Obscura… Featuring the old necrophagist drummer… Old? Nah, he’s like 22 or so, but yeah. Hannes Grossman I think was his name.
Also with the old Necrophagist guitarist or bassist or one of them, anyway.
Less overall melody than necro on their last album, but some really cool stuff there… First track is great (anticosmic overload or so) plus a few others, haven’t listened to this as much yet.
Bass guitar is very audible most of the time, though I’d guess that you want to listen to this via headphones and not the car-stereo as many of the bass lines aren’t really “bassy” but more in the higher frequencies?
Not certain, haven’t tested that yet…
Not sure about the overall level of performance here yet, bass-wise, detty might want to have a listen though…
Man, typing stuff while eating is annoying.

I’m going to go back through and check out some of this other stuff (I was just kidding about the “Death” metal part, Det, I lub all metal!) that you posted, but Obscura was kickass. We talked to them a little bit before Cannibal came on. Down ass guys… their guitarist was the one who actually told me about Unmerciful. Bought their CD, got it signed by the entire band. Pretty cool stuff.
Plus, they cover Universe Momentum. I mean, really, what’s more badass than that?
…something about obscura?
those meedleys are so rediculous in this song.
I can change the pace, too…
^Holy shit.
My friends’ band just got signed with Relapse. Woohoo!

Go back a page, and check out the links of the band Obscura, you’ll probably like them since they’re a blend of Necrophagist, Death, and Cynic.

Nice. I’ve been wanting to get into Torture Killer a bit. I like most of what I’ve heard from there - Just wish they’d keep the BPM rolling.
Great posts!
So I went to a HORRIBLE concert the other night. Lamb of God, Children of Bodom, As I Lay Dying, God Forbid, and Municipal Waste. LoG was decent (they played more old shit than new shit, thank God,) and Children of Bodom was kickass - even though Alexi broke his shoulder. Municipal Waste was suprisingly decent compared to the rest of the show, though. Shitty part of the show was we made up to the VERY front… but had no weed, and felt like I was getting ass-fucked by like three guys at once the entire show. NOT COOL.
These guys were supposed to be there - Toxic Holocaust
— Alright, now for some death metal.
Internal Suffering - Evocation of the Secret Gate (has this been posted?
I’m sure everyone’s heard this by now…
Malignancy - Inhuman Grotesqueries
One of my favs…
Disconformity - Endocranial Cast
on the lighter side of things:
berzerker
all the things she said - hahahaha this is a funny cover. and a great video. adorable girls making out? check.

that’s quite the line up of trendy pop metal. i’m sorry but anyone who claims to like lamb of god looses about 10 credibility points in my mind. but followed up with children of bodom and as i lay dying? not my thing. shudder
holy shit! excellent nice fucking blast beats at the end.
oh fuck yeah!
