Yesssss. This will more than make up for how loving boring the new devin townsend is, not like I was expecting much anyway.

I'm not feeling it too much, which is a shame considering I adore Portal of I. This doesn't have the same magical, grandiose atmosphere. Maybe that'll change on future listens but I'm disappointed. The fact that half the tracks are really short instrumentals doesn't help things. Also, if anything, the production is even more cluttered and inorganic than PoI.

Gamma Nerd posted:Also, if anything, the production is even more cluttered and inorganic than PoI. Im curious as to what exactly you want to hear from them, re: being inorganic. I think it sounds fantastic. It could stand to be a bit longer though, considering PoI was 75 minutes.

Do you know what I miss? The band recording it live while being tracked on separate channels. Do bands even do that anymore besides thinking it'll save them money?

I think Kreator did that on their past few albums, where they recorded it all live together as a band in the studio and then mashed together different takes to produce the finished album.

Defiant Sally posted:Im curious as to what exactly you want to hear from them, re: being inorganic. I think it sounds fantastic. I'm no production expert, but Portal of I, despite not being a lo-fi production job at all, had a hazy BM-style guitar tone that gave it a pretty atmospheric, forest-y feeling. With Citadel, the guitar tone is way chunkier, drier, and more up-front most of the time, and it doesn't have nearly the same sort of atmosphere. The acoustic bits have a really nice, open feeling as usual though. Then again I like their production job on Aurora Veil the most out of all their releases, because the roughness gives it a certain charm. Turk February posted:Do you know what I miss?

Krallice's Years Past Matter was recorded live in studio, all first take except for track 4, and it's become one of my favorite albums. Can't help but agree with you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HU9GAxrQHmg

Turk February posted:I love Judas Priest as much as the next guy, but jesus loving christ, almost $60 for that ticket? It's proving to be a better investment than this one at least:  Cancelled one time due to Blizzardocalypse 2014 wrecking north Georgia. "Rescheduled" again due to Manowar deciding the really need to go into the studio instead of do the US make-up dates. Haven't seen any sign of a new date either. I feel you about that price though. I've never seen Judas Priest live though and while I know I won't be hearing Screaming for Vengeance I still gotta go once and pay my respects, you know?

I'm broke and I have class all night tomorrow, loving sucks. Pretty sure this is the last time I'll ever have a chance, and I'm gonna miss it (had to miss em a couple years back, too.) Maybe Maiden will come through sometime.

I didn't (couldn't bring myself) to dig through every page of this thread but, I didn't see any mention of Cannibal Corpse in the 20 or so pages that I did read so, without further ado... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqcUgRgXo5U \m/

Why would there be a mention of them? it's not like there's much to say about cannibal corpse at this point.

It's never horrible but it's the same thing every time and it's never been more than good fun. It's just that AC/DC is a lot more actual fun, because they don't take themselves so seriously.

Vintersorg posted:Got proof? Like AC/DC is entry level bullshit, but they were more fun. Although I guess you're right, it just always felt for some reason that CC just took themselves too seriously for what they did. Then again, while I've seen them live several times I've never actually met the band at all.

I'm fairly certain that noted World of Warcraft player and goony motherfucker George Fisher does not take his job that seriously. Cannibal Corpse is awesome for what it is. I hope you both get Followed Home Then Killed.

Today is hereby declared "loving hell old Finnish metal shits on Cannibal Corpse from a momentous height" day. This has nothing to do with me waking up and deciding to listen to Ugra-Karma at 6am before reading this thread, and everything to do with the above statement being objective truth. I recommend a steady diet of Convulse, Belial, (early) Impaled Nazarene, Archgoat, Beherit, Demigod, Demilich, Abhorrence, Purtenance, Depravity aaaand early Barathrum. Here's some Belial to get you started and in case anyone is stupid enough to disagree with the original statement.

How did Cannibal Corpse get to be so well known anyway, is it just that they released a billion albums and toured a lot or what? i mean even not very into metal people know about them.The Clit Avoider posted:Purtenance that old album of theirs has a really cool crunchy sound https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKu6s2qXIfo

Doomy, but also bestial and raw. Straight up frightening in some parts. http://darkdescentrecords.bandcamp.com/album/lunarterial

Cannibal Corpse basically perfected a very generic sound early on (they started off very similar to Schizophrenia era Sepultura and then adopted the NYDM sound around the time of the debuts of the bands surrounding them), and coupled it with schlock and gore lyics (and artwork) that their contemporaries didn't approach and a slightly raised media profile due to the offense caused. They're still popular because they're quite easy to stumble over in mainstream sources, and hold a certain nostalgia value for a lot of people for whom they represent the first foray into death metal via the "pick up the most offensive looking cd/lp in the store" route. I'd imagine they still get meatheads buying their albums based on shock value to this day.

Corpsegrinder's monotone bark is super tiring to listen to and they love having him loud as gently caress in the mix

Bah... CC's been doing it since 1988 and have covered the globe. They are still going strong. The material that they produced with Chris Barnes was awesome. Bands come and go but, 26 years of heavy touring and recording gets them my respect. Just sayin... Wondering how many in this thread even play an instrument

They aren't as technical as some however, I've had fun every time that I've seen them. They contributed to the genre and were ground breaking early on is really all that I intended to say.
