COOL CORN posted:And then one of my best friends in high school (Dustie Waring, now plays for BTBAM) gave me a copy of Cannibal Corpse's Bloodthirst, and after that we started a band and the rest is history. I remember comparing CC lyrics with you, Dustie and Adam to find the most hosed up lyrics. Fun times.

symbolic posted:What was the song that got you guys to start listening to metal? I've been thinking about this lately, since I didn't remember at first. I heard "Final Countdown" by Europe a Florida restaurant back in 2004 which piqued my curiosity, but the song that won me over with SlipKnot's "Duality" in 2008 or 2009. Even now, SlipKnot holds a special place in my heart. I heard Final Countdown alot too growing up so maybe that planted the seeds. I heard some Nightwish and Slayer on a friend's myspace like ten years ago. Talk about a weird mix.

I remember being in eighth grade algebra and the kid (whose brother plays bass in August Burns Red lol) next to me would bring in the Cannibal Corpse lyric books and read them to me because he knew it freaked me out. Later, in high school, I was really into Slipknot which transitioned into Black Dahlia Murder, Amon Amarth, Devourment, and Cannibal Corpse.

My cousin leant me his discman on a road trip to Wilson's Promitory. He had a mix CD of Metallica stuff because he's an uber-conservative Christian and only liked some of their stuff. It was a mix of Black album, Load and Reload. It tore my little 12 year old mind to pieces who thought that Pink Floyd was pretty hardcore.

What did it for me was the entirety of Metallica's album "...and Justice for All", which some of you may have heard of. It was released (or at least showed up in Norwegian shops) within a week or three of when I started high school, and I bought the tape (yes, TAPE you young whippersnappers) unheard based on word of mouth. Within the next few weeks (in part due to a new classmate who was already into metal) I stumbled across Iron Maiden (yes, I'd somehow never listened to them before), Slayer, Testament and various other bands you may also have heard of. Got to Bathory in less than a year. My teenage brain was previously primed by having spent some time listening to various so-called hard rock or even glam metal (not a term I can recall hearing then; it was all "hard rock" or "heavy rock" or "heavy metal" or just "heavy") which had mainstream exposure alongside softer rock and pop music, as one did as a kid in the middle of the 1980s. Artists worth mentioning include such groups as Europe and Bon Jovi, Def Leppard and even Guns'n'Roses. (Somehow I'd never managed to like KISS, which were tremendously popular among my peers; so it goes.) But the thing that did it for real was popping in that Metallica tape and absorbing the intro to Blackened (and then the rest of the album, over and over).

I think this whole business with Disma is really loving stupid, but I honestly can understand why there would be hoopla about Craig being on the Netherlands Deathfest considering, ya know, Europe was blitzkrieg'd into oblivion by the Nazis.

For any Gainesville FL goons: in a rare show of actual good music coming to town, Cattle Decapitation is going to be here on November 7th right after they get done with Cannibal Corpse! Pros: Cattle Decapitation Cons: They're supported by some really lovely generic deathcore band Abiotic I put off listening to the new Cattle Decap album until yesterday and I am sad that I did because it rips

On the topic of first metal tune: Oh man, Embarrassing I was a teenager answer, Ain't My Bitch off of Load. Ugh. Hurts to even type it. But when I heard that, it was a whole new level for me. Graduated to Cowboys From Hell and Demanufacture from there. But the album that probably cemented my metal fandom for good was Chaos A.D. These days, I'm more of an Arise guy, but god drat you can't argue with the killer production on Chaos, and it's got a lot more sonic variance than Arise does, even if Arise has, on the whole, better individual tunes in my opinion. Desperate Cry will never get old, ever. A tear for what happened to Sep. Graduated into all sorts of bizarre ephemera from there, of course, but those guys were great entry points for a pissed off teenager. The only genre I don't generally dig is black, honestly, but I've been trying to remedy that with lots of Enslaved and Dissection. So goons. Here's one for you. It's a lovely, overcast day here in Chicagoland and I'm wondering what albums/artists epitomize Autumn for you. Someone recommended Thy Light's No Morrow Shall Dawn a long ways back when I started lurking this thread, and I finally checked it out. It's awesome. I'm looking for something in that mode, but not solely. I want dirges, mournful progressions, lots of melody, and agony. Or failing that, artists that get near to what I'm after would be Type O Negative (naturally), Thy Light, some of Opeth's stuff (Drapery Falls, especially), Loss, that sort of thing. I'm looking less for any genre touchstones or whatever and more for atmosphere, but if you had to go with a particular sound, Thy Light would be the sound I'm most interested in.

TollTheHounds posted:I just read a review on angrymetalguy about Enshine who I had never heard of before. These guys will probably be right up the alley of anyone into Insomnium/Omnium Gatherum as their work is in a similar vein - depressive melodic death but a bit more doomy/proggy I think. Thanks for this, Singularity is an absolutely fantastic album.
