Heh you sound like the original I hope no vocal chord issues?

Also, sounds like you recorded it pretty well.

I'll never understand this shit tbqh.

As much as I understand the disdain for 4 and For Answer I enjoyed the atmosphere of melancholy and despair in the story, especially when you find out who White Glint is this time around.

I love this series.

V and Verdict Day are great too.

but why death metal >_<

Music works better with an eb in flow, rise to crescendo's, depth and contrast. In terms of singing they just dont have that >_<

It's like a rollercoaster 50m's in the air, that is in a straight line

To quote something I believe I first heard from you Bod, "Different strokes for different folks."
E: pooky oh my god the guy's voice in that song is hysterical

Most of the crap masquerading as death metal these days actually isn't. Old school death metal wasn't about just being as br00tal as possible, it was about creating an eerie atmosphere, like a horror movie.

The vocals are definitely an acquired taste, but I think that album has a cool atmosphere to it

Well, the question is who or what gives melody to a song. If the vocals are that monotone, the guitars have to compensate for rollercoaster.

My only problem is when the band obviously only spend 5 minutes to make a song e.g. Pookys last link by Cannibal Corpse. Are you serious? Some guitar warm up riffs, drummer is uncreative so he blast beat's his way through and you call that a solo??? Nothing against your taste in music.

[Bodzilla]

the thing is in most death metal i've heard, the guitars are a VERY poor substitute for vocal melody. Because it's just to be BROOtAL MAN.

I'll listen to screaming, growling, clean vocals and anything in between.... but it's just so incredibly obvious when you compare shit like that to say In Flames who are genuinely very melodic. Hell or even Parkway Drive.
The entire point of screaming and growling is to get across powerful emotions, whether it's resolve, anger, hate, fear or whatever. That message is ultimately watered down by it ONLY being screaming. So it's actually less BRUTAL..........
