New album!

I'd almost forgotten they make albums; its been so long. Should be great.

Here's an annoyingly short teaser on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kh_Oa47uenQ

URGH!

it's a long wait...

Oh, $%&#ing vocals

Some I like

Some....for $%&# sake

Suffered this the other night. Was listening to all my music on random (which is about 13,000 songs and I dont know what all of it is, so it surprises me sometimes) and this cool riff came on, nice tone, generally banging intro to what was promising to be a quality track of good-ass metal, then some c--kmonger started jabbering cavemanese with the voice of an ewock on crack and it ruins it for me.

It was 'Katakysm, Era of the mercyless' [sic]

Yeah, I know, all imo, of course, some people love it, but none of them seem to be in this thread so screw it :P

It is possible to shred in a very musical and melodic manner. Ask Paganini!  :D

Speaking of paganini, I'm rather fond of this

And of course origin, who sometimes sound like I imagine paganini might if he were in a really foul mood and had an EMG 81 equiped jackson and a dual rectifier

I love the sweeps at the end (and the rest of it, but those especially).

Breathtaking. Makes pretty much any electric guitar player look a bit silly.

I listened to that all the way through. Probably best to make no comment. Each to their own....  :)

What stops me listening to an awful lot of really heavy bands is shiteee vocalists (grunty growly screechycookie monster types) rather than the onslaught of drums and guitars.

i think the same of a lot of modern metal... of course i'm not talking in general about screams and growls (for a death-black metal fan it would be quite nonsensical!), but the whole deathcore genre (that, unfortunately, is contaminating a lot of nobler scenes...) lives on completely WRONG vocals... a singer must not just scream, he's got to do it in the right way, with interesting metrics (the thing with non-melodic vocals is all about timing and rhythm, like in rap... you can't just scream syncronously with the snare drum, damn!). phonetics are really important too... most young singers just scream the sh!t out of their lungs but emit no other sound that a constant "whooooaaaaahhhh"...
i think that a lot of people is kept away from extreme metal by who does it bad!

Our singer just goes at 100% and makes a load of noise www.myspace.com/therabhus - check it out!

As for screamed vocals, the whole Pig Squeal/Water Drain thing does my head in. Annotations of an Autopsy are terrible for this. Good music though.

Theres another origin track called The Aftermath, that I named my custom BK after. Awesome tune, ferocious, heavy, well composed, technically stunning but musically cogent and interesting. I read the lyrics for it one day

Huge mistake. I'm glad I've forgotten them.

On that note

I dont even mind Fishers vocals; he does what he does very well (some forget that that stuff is as hard as singing well)

But...

The lyrics...why?

Maybe the cavemanese is to hide the fact that the lyrics are utterly retarded? I wouldnt have enough confidence in them to clearly enunciate either. 

[Davey]

i think that pretty much all gore lyrics are utterly ridiculous.
