Yeah, this type of Death Metal is what I find ruins the genre for me. It's constantly crazy with no centre, no melody or narrative. There's no juxtaposition of contrasting parts, like slow/fast, melodic/dissonant. It all just comes out as bland noise I find. Obviously they are very good at their instruments, which I can appreciate, but they don't seem to have a knack for songwriting. It seems like these type of musicians are just trying to see who can play the fastest. I find that you get a lot more POWER out of the powerful parts of a song when they are offset by less powerful parts. There has to be a build-up, a calm-before-the-storm so to speak. Then when the really good part comes in it's that much better. So yeah, pretty boring and unimaginative, although they are obviously very technically proficient.

Hi to all. Figure I'll just answer you all in one post. To FatherAlabaster: Thank you very much and yes I'm definitely planning on joining some discussions. In fact, I'm going to do that right now. To deathstorm: What's up is I'm about to go listen to the new Gorguts album. To BlutAusNerd: Thank you very much. To Ghouly: Yeah It's pretty awesome! People are really cool, great beer, amazing scenery; housing is damn expensive, but I guess you can't have it all eh? All in all a great place. I see you're from San Fran. Pretty cool place too, go Mythbusters! hahah If I was going to live anywhere in the States it'd probably be northern California or Oregon. To EveryThingStartsWithCore: Thanks eh? lol. Where abouts? Maritimes? Ontario?
