My girlfriend truly knows me like no other. Best Valentine's gift ever. She also bought me boxer shorts saying "kiss me".
Sleep well all with that image of me sat in "kiss me" underwear drinking mead from a horn!
First listen to them, don't see where the fuss comes from about them. Very ordinary sounding to me.

Pre-ordered this last night. Squally DM for fans of Portal, Mitochondrion etc, although I get actual riffs on this.
Something perhaps slightly odd in this topic but "metal for me" actually points to specific places. Kind of hard to put into words but a lot of the time when I listen to metal I think of the streets around where I used to work. I would spend most of my lunch hour sat in my car reading metal mags and listening to metal, therefore they are images that (oddly) play through my mind when I listen to metal. Also my parents house, where I first discovered metal sits in my head a lot when I have the music going.
Not just because they are longer, although that's a deciding factor. I just hear more DM than Grindcore on Symphonies, granted Necroticism took it up a notch further but I think Symphonies was more of the transition record.
I think it is more death metal. Certainly in comparison to "Reek..". There's still lots of grind going on but I think compositionally it is more DM.
