/metal/

Scott Burns is a bad producer.

(not true btw)

Then why does Effigy of the Forgotten sound worse than their demos?

I think the second wave of black metal is more important than actually good. I enjoy some albums like DMDS, Dark Endless, Nocturnal Silence, Profanatitas, and Skullthrone, but the vast majority of it is just uninteresting tremolosloppa and really fucking overrated. Almost all of these bands got better with time, making their styles more unique and varied, while also obtaining better production and aesthetics, and I feel like a lot of people who hate on their newer albums just hate complex compositions and stylistic changes as a whole, and they just worship the 90s sound because they only have the mental capacity to process and understand simple compositions.

I think the second wave of stinky diarrhea is more important than actually good.

Lmao well it doesn't but why are Pierced and Legion two of the best sounding death metal records of all time?

Blasting?

Sorry for being retarded but i cant find this old song and its driving me insane. Its one of those old songs thats in a million movies and shows etc. Pretty sure it was sabbath/ozzy but not positive, it could be metallica also.
Its immediately recognizable im just retarded and cant remember.
No clue what the lyrics are but the chorus goes something like:
Oi!(or at least it sounds like that to me) somthing something
Oi! Something something
Something something oi
Then guitar goes
dun nun nun nun nun nun nun
Dun nun nun nun nun nun nun
Dun nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh
Then chorus repeats.

I know i just described that about as bad i possibly could hopefully someone knows. Its such a famous song im such a retard for not immediately knowing it

Human Waste definitely sounds better than Effigy. Pierced spunds better than Effigy but still not great. Legion sounds pretty good though, I'll give you that.

dun nun nun nun nun nun nun

Post a vocaroo of you humming it, dumbass.

blackie lawless is best vocal, fight me.

Taake deez nuts in yo mouth xddddddddddddddd

Who started the "sentence fragment" lyric style in metal? Like where all the lyrics sound like

Endless perversion

Constantly raping

Unimaginable violence

Praising the lord of the dead

or whatever.

Immortal Force by Mutilator

The most based OP picture we have ever had.

Either Sarcofago or Tormentor probably, that wouldn't exist if they actually knew the language they were trying to use

You're right that Human Waste sounds better but that's an EP so I was talking about their demo, Reincremated, which does not sound better than Effigy. In 91 everybody was still trying to figure out how to capture the sound. There's obviously going to be missteps. If Scott just flat out sucked the band wouldn't have demanded that he do the recording for Pierced after the Breeding the Spawn fumble.

what's the difference between Sludge, Stoner and Doom?

Sure. But basically anything would sound better than Breeding the Spawn.

Stoner is Sabbath riffs.
Sludge is punk with Sabbath riffs.
Doom is just the slow Sabbath riffs.

Sludge is a weird descendant of hardcore and doom. Stoner is doom with more blues and DUDE WEED. Doom (trad anyway) is more of a descendant of heavy metal and Black Sabbath.

artwork is a nature photo that isn't a grim and frostbitten forest

The signs were there.

Who are you quoting?

Tormentor

Which one?

If I ever make music I'll post it here in hopes of someone interested in doing e.g. drums. Any of you even play them?

artwork is a nature photo that isn't a grim and frostbitten forest

Not listening!

I know but who the hell expected it to go from a raw riff-fest to this.

I play a shitty electric drum kit badly, does that count

Endless perversion

Constantly raping

Unimaginable violence

Praising the lord of the dead

stealing these lyrics, thanks.

Violence unimagined is pretty good

intestine baalism are preddy good, what other melodeath bands are there

You already listened to the only good one.

Violence unimagined

Incessantly blaspheming

No brakes on the rape train

Building a temple to iniquity

naaahhhh they cant be the only good one surely?

Assuming you aren't gonna like shit like "Insomnium when they were good" or whatever:

Arghoslent and Grenadier if you count them as melodeath
early In Mourning
Arsis
Nightrage
Mors Principium Est
House of Atreus

STRONG WIND
MAGIC MIST
TO ASGARD THE VALKYRIES FLY
HIGH OVERHEAD
THEY CARRY THEIR DEAD
WHERE THE BLOOD
OF MY ENEMIES LIE

Fucked mercilessly

Destroying virgin cunts

Molesting the innocent

Rape rape rape rape rape

Metal bands I've enjoyed so far:
Kreator (Pleasure to Kill)
Slayer (Reign In Blood)
Electric Wizard (Funeralopolis)
Melvins (Houdini)
Type O Negative
Suicidal Tendencies
Siege
(Discharge)

where do I go from here?

I remember a fair chunk of early death metal doing it, Pestilence came to mind right away

To hell for liking satan music

In adition to what the other guy mentioned, you should also check out early Dark Tranquility, early In Flames, Dungeon Serpent.

where do I go from here?

Pretty much continuing through any entry level metal list on RYM or some shit as you're basically doing that already.
If you say "I like these well known popular band, where do I go from here?" the answer is just "more of that".
Unless there's some specific you liked about it, or you specifically want like "more extreme" stuff, there isn't much more you can be pointed to.

I figured he might not be keen on that. I assume people who go "intestine baalism is the only melodeath I like" then they need "melodeath for people who aren't huge into melodeath" which is how I did the list. I assume early In Flames etc might still not be their thing.
I'd hope The Gallery works for them too, but felt like I would try to stick to the "heavier" stuff which I assume is what exclusive IB enjoyers want.

Artist: Darkthrone
Album: Panzerfaust
Song: Beholding The Throne of Might

And destruction upon the holy man

Who hails a jew

Awful trollpost.
Dont listen to this gay, this is all whoreson noise.

Pretty nice recs, but it might filter newfish

t. Secretary Hambug

I like to delve into bands instead of going from classic to classic. I tried Melvins and Electric Wizard because I like layered fuzzy guitar tones with catchy melodies (I was a big fan of Siamese Dream before) so I probably want something that follows that direction (pumpkins, type o, EW)

Gates of Ishtar
Hypocrisy
Garden of Shadows
Vehemence
God Dethroned

If you like the fuzzy geetars then explore that sort of Doom and Stoner Doom genre more. Stuff like Soma comes to mind, but I'm not much of a doom-y boi.
Windhand and Purification come to mind.
youtube.com/watch?v=qWcjYA17FkQ
youtube.com/watch?v=LuPEU7QJcGE

Also you listed Type O and some other doom-y stuff so you might like later Woods of Ypres.
youtube.com/watch?v=KYDcytjq8Is

Some random shit, but it's better than nothing (hopefully)

Stuff like Soma

I meant Windhand, Soma is the album. Shows how un-doom I am I guess.

I already asked for a drummer because a drum machine is kinda boring but no dice.
not surprising when you think about the kind of people that come here.

I play drums, I just have no recording equipment.

you don't have an audio interface?

I'll be 100% honest with you I don't know what you mean by audio interface. Is that the software you use to record stuff?

i have a drum kit and recording equipment but i cant play drums

I can plug the shitty electric kit into a laptop and record it. Good enough right

lmao
it's a little box, you just plug your guitar/mic/whatever in and you record shit

i have recording equipment and can play drums but i dont have drums to play.

I don't think you belong here m8

Bro I LOVE stoner doom! The riffs are soooo slooooow and heavy! And it's about weed lmao! Did you know that Sleep have an album where ITS ALL ONE SONG? ITS ONE HOUR LONG SONG. HOOOLY SHIIIT. WHAT WHERE THEY SMOKING?

but i guess for an e-drum kit you don't need it if you can plug with MIDI USB directly, don't know for sure

No, I do not have that. Is it expensive?
This isn't /prod/ lol. I just hit things with sticks while I listen to metal, never recorded anything before.

You can use midi or I do it ghetto by using an audio splitter for the audio output and plugging one into the mic port of the laptop and doing it through audacity (as I have no idea how to record and use midi).

I like the first two. Accessible melodies and a sense of alternative

No, I do not have that. Is it expensive?

bought mine for like 80 euros

I don't think you need to have recorded audio to get exposed to the concept of audio interfaces if you don't live under a rock.

I have no recording equipment, no drums, and I don't know how to play them.

what do you need an audio interface for? microphones exist

Idk I thought those little boxes were called pre amps. I assume that's something else?

sweet summer child

your DAW or drum machine should be able to work with midi no problem
what's nice about midi is that you can use any sample from your library/drum machine and play it with your kit

I have recording equipment, drums, and I can play them. I just don't feel like it.

i mean the audio interface contains one or more preamps

Did anyone even really care that this came out?

Yeah so I hit the drums but I need software to record the midi and apply the VST or whatever it is to make it go from notes to sounds. I never bothered with that and the ghetto way "worked" so here I am.

Whatever you produce would sound awful anyway you old pissdrinker

Thumping of e drums

Unable to record

Hoplessly ignorant

Unware of audio interfaaaaacesssssss

The fact that you think Nocturnal Silence is a bm album reveals your total lack of understanding

He put the one death metal Marduk album on there too.

This but the opposite

The secret for making a great black/death metal album, is to first craft a catchy song with a good chorus/hook, then collab with a big metal band like babymetal or daft punk, get your lead single on any movie, then you release an anime music video on yt, and meme your song on tiktok, preferably with a dance to go along. You're welcome.

Sounds like an outstanding way to make Not Metal song

Yo wtf this shit has riffs

China seems to have the best metal

I say that

all men btw

what does jd vance have to do with this

If you odnt take drugs and or drink, you have no place in my metal scene

Well, it’s shit. Why would anyone care?

True

you have to be a degenerate drug-addled faggot with a drinking problem and a beer gut if you want me to take you seriously

Decide opening for Behemoth

And not the other way around

J-Dawg lost.

It's based to be like that. If you disagree >>>> dooors that way bucko

Drugs are cool. What’s wrong, is your mommy going to be angry at you you baby?

THE JUST OV DAWG

what if I'm a recovering alcoholic?

drugs give you brain damage

Cringe
It smarterners the brainceller

trust ~le science goy many (((specialists))) say drugs are bad for you

As long as your personality isn't SOBRIETY then it's cool.

Only half the album has to be like that, you fill the rest with whatever you want, preferably covers (Iron Maiden, Mayhem, system of a down etc...)

We were all 17 once, too. You'll grow out of it.

You should also try these ones

And Gates of Ishtar, that you've already been recommended
These somewhat advanced recs based on your taste for Intestine Baalism, but if you missed on classic melodeath, you still should give golden age In Flames, Dark Tranquility and Soilwork a try

will be trying all these recs once ive washed and cleaned up, ta anons

Brain damage is metal as fuck.

going to force myself to go to a local gig near me on my own, might make a friend, dunno though. Ive had people talk to me before at these things but I fuck it up by not continuing the conversation as it catches me off guard. Have you ever made friends at gigs? bit sick of being a friendless sad cunt

I've made "show/scene friends" before. People I say what's up to at a show when I see them but nothing outside of that context. Just go in with a casual attitude and you'll be good. Being drunk helps too.

The first one would be good, if they didn't let that mental patient crash in the studio. The second is irredeemable garbage, come on dude, after 9 years it only has 2.9k views ? even I could get way more than that.

People I say what's up to at a show when I see them but nothing outside of that context.

What's even the point then.

seconded, do you at least arrange to do shit with these people? I wouldn't mind ''show friends'' if it were people that were chill and would purposely go to shows with me n shit that would be fine

odnt

Worth noting

I drink coffee, my drug is caffeine.

We fucking hate nazimusic here.

what's the point

To shoot the shit while you're waiting around. Maybe grab a drink afterwards. Nothing more than that.

do you at least arrange to do shit with these people?

I've exchanged numbers with a couple of them over the years and we'll hit each other up once in a while to see if we're going to a show. I'm older and have a social life outside of the local music scene so I don't put too much weight on these casual acquaintances. If you're looking to build a closer relationship with people in your scene it's all gonna start at the same place. Up to you to grow it further.

I freakin love the metal music! Metallica is rocking!

even I could get way more than that.

No you couldn't.

t. Secretary Hambug

Vultures of Misfortune is such a good song.

102696.jpg - 666x666, 94.91K

INHERENTLY.

Do you prefer your metal more straightforward and aggressive or more atmospheric and creepy?

for me it's The Red Heifer, but Vultures is a close second

HE WHOM SUCKETH THE INCISED TIP

I like both. I am an atmoshitter so I guess if you make me pick I'd choose the latter, but I'd rather it was still aggro riffs with some atmosphere scattered about and not just a boring plodding 20 minute song with like 3 riffs claiming to be atmospheric.

Or I'll just take Leviathan and get both

after 9 years it only has 2.9k views ?

what does that have to do with anything? are you that much of a braindead follower that you need the shit you listen to to be popular?

Once a riff is slowed down to a certain degree, it stops riffing. I need my metal to be above a certain BPM. I can accept some atmoshittery. What I cannot accept is boring ultra slow "riffs".

now yer messin with a
sonofaberrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhh

When will Six Feet Under do a jazz standards cover album?

Here in /metal/ the only yas queens that slay are our favorite kpop idols!

atmoslam

I already did, I posted videos on early yt, that last time I saw them (around 2018) had over 30k views. It's easy these days, just write asmr, brainrot or sth popular in the title and boom. I have a neighbor that uploaded homemade videos about spiderman, and got over 100k views after a few years. "If you're the only one following your "genius" he isn't a genius, but you're a fool" There is a difference between being popular, and mainstream, if it were any good, it would have a sizeable amount of fans.

no links

no proof

just lies

if it were any good, it would have a sizeable amount of fans.

literally the opposite. the better it is the more normie retards it filters. go listen to ghost and get the fuck out of our general

Why do bands feel the need to change the cover art on old albums? It never looks better.

i unironically discovered that album from a pol thread back in my chud era

Anon Babble has terrible taste

Why am I note surprised?

Political lyrics are inherently not metal. Politics should stay confined to punk faggotry.

This whole thread has terrible taste, static TV would be a good song in comparison to the crap consistently posted here.

How can you ruin that which was was always gay and stupid?

gorod rips the average metal band to absolute shreds

Because they don't have the rights to it anymore usually. Also when bands are new and small they just do whatever they want and no one cares. But when you're big you can't do that.

cold blood: without feeling or mercy; ruthlessly.

How many NSBM has she talked about?

That's the anti-Kaevum poster. Not even joking.

straightest black metal fan

why do you faggots pretend Intestine Baalism is any different from the rest of melodeath?

because

thing :I

thing, japan :O

Well what do you like

If you can't hear the difference between IB and In Flames that's ypur problem.

because it's not melodeath, it's death metal with melody. subtle difference i know. goes over the feeble minds of many people here.

You idiots will argue about anything

When people talk about IB they're usually talking about An Anatomy of the Beast.

False. We all agree that Formulas Fatal to the Flesh is the greatest death metal album of all time.

See

False. We all agree that Formulas Fatal to the Flesh is the greatest death metal album of all time.

That could be argued. But we all agree Morbid Angel reigns supreme.

morbid angel sux

outside of a few songs morbid angel fuckin blows lmao

First time I've seen a good death metal song :O what a rare pokemon.

Notice the estrogenized lowercase typing. You can be sure they listen to black metal.

black metal fags love morbid angel

Kek.

We fucking won't, cunt.

Morbid Angel reigns supreme

Correct.

More like Whorebid Gayngel.

Notice the estrogenized lowercase typing. You can be sure they listen to black metal.

This, and unironically so

Formulas and Gateways are the only good MA albums.

I just roke up

This album is dedicated to the Underground and all Speed, Death, Black Metal fans everywhere.

The only good MA albums are Altars, Abominations, Blessed, Covenant, Domination, Formulas, Gateways and Heretic. Dogshit band outside of those gems.

I once had a dream that I attended a Suffocation show with Frank doing live vocals. During Funeral Inception he pulled me up on stage and we both took turns singing the "God forbid, God forbidden" part of the song. Strange dream that I randomly remembered having.
