Weren't we just talking about Nile?

 

Their last album was an awesome throwback to me because it encapsulated the sound I got into more extreme music with perfectly. But with this, it just jumps the shark for me. If the cleans sounded more like Killswitch Engage or even Karl's during Controller-era Mis Sigs, I'd be all over it...but these mallcore whiny vocals just didn't age well for me at all. Though I probably should go back and listen to bands I did like that fell under the mallcore umbrella and see how they've aged.

Metallica - "Whiplash" - Live at Metro - Chicago 9/20/2021

 

Introducing my new album - Diabolica

[melodic black // death-thrash]

 

Oh SHIT another tour coming to Tampa! And the same week as the WITTR one, hell yeah

 

New Fuming Mouth

 

This is some angry and heavy as hell post metal.

 

Interesting album. They are definitely leaning further into the prog sound. Not bad, just different. Also, had no idea the vocalist had hearing issues.

 

Adored WOKMN so this should be good! Excited to listen

 

FFO toilet deathgrind featuring hits such as "Impaled By Tree" and "Femur Bone Toothpick".

 

"Hits"

 

The lyrics to Impaled By Tree might be the greatest thing I've ever read:

"spears right through me
tree branch death
sap and blood
the log is my new bed

it's been 72 hours
of tree root acupuncture
shit and piss in my shorts
sap and puss coagulate

gangrene sets in I feel dizzy
don't say trees are friendly
I am not bear food
ant hill in my severed leg
leaves in my brain

I could've used a lumberjack at least"

 

Seeing UNDEATH (and others) tonight!!!

 

This is the fkin pinnacle of high art

 

This new Succumb album is so good:

 

Getting some real big Cave-In vibes from the new Judas Knife album.

 

I don’t know if I get Cave In but one song legit sounded like Andrew McMahon, lol

 

Maybe it's me but I don't love the vocals

 

what is there to "get" about cave in? they're fairly straightforward hah

 

It took me a bit too. It’s a good album once it clicks.

 

I think he meant he didn't get the comparison to Cave In.

 

Blame my shitty ears for hearing things that may or may not be applicable labels for others. :)

 

One grind album too many

 

I'm really curious to see how it's going to fare. I found it quite impressive and full of surprises. My early favorite song has to be "The Void from Which No Sound Escapes" so far. The way it flawlessly switches from sludge to groove metal to prog to that jazzy guitar solo to a saxophone (!) one? Absolutely wild.
