Noisem - Agony Defined was one of my favorite death/thrash albums last decade and I remember being surprised when I heard a bunch of teenagers wrote it. It's still rad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2on5JY5ygI

Finally listened to the new Obituary. Always loved their sense of groove and they still got it. New Hellripper song is great and I honestly didn't mind the new In Flames song, but honestly if I get the itch to listen to In Flames these days I usually just throw on The Jester Race.

H13 posted:New Metallica. I wasn't totally into what they were doing on Death Magnetic or Hardwired (outside of the opening track to Hardwired, which sounds like a Kill 'Em All B-side and kind of rules) but it at least had some energy. The two songs they've released off of 72 Seasons just don't make me feel anything.

ShoogaSlim posted:buddy of mine sent me this song today and it's giving me heavy napalm death vibes? i'm not super well versed in this style but it just feels aggressive and fast which rules I just threw on this album and...they are trying to mix together groovy sludge metal and grindcore and sometimes it works and sometimes it feels like oil and water. Like, this is another song on the album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkBO7D9VapM

xzzy posted:People have spent more to get a square wave I guess. already have the hm2, I'd mostly be curious (knowing little about practical synthesis but enough to know a sine wave is the most basic/standard waveform that follows a sine equation) if you can hear the hm2's sonic quirks through a synth

xzzy posted:I don't have an hm2 so can't comment on that pedal in specific but I have put lots of basic waves through lots of distortions. You can definitely see unique behaviors of a filter as you crank up the saturation in an oscilloscope.. the curve of the sine wave gets flatter as it clips and eventually looks like a square wave. But there will be a "wiggle" in the line where it shifts from the slope to the clipped portion and I assume the specifics of that artifact will be unique to the design of the circuit. interesting. There's a blog post by a person that analyzed the HM2 and ran a 200hz sine wave through it while posting various curves, which I remember because I came across it trying to get HM2-esque sounds out of an AxeFX FM3. You get pretty close with an SD1 model as a boost and a comically exaggerated parametric EQ with spikes at 88hz and 1080hz, but the real deal definitely has a different character. I'll take your word for it that it wouldn't be as obvious with a sine wave. Southern Cassowary fucked around with this message at 18:13 on Jan 24, 2023 |

Omnikin posted:I don't remember where I picked it up, but when I was in high school I randomly stumbled across Dragonforce and made a station for them on early Pandora, all bangers but a few lasting favorites This is literally how I got into metal, found the YTMND of the Iron Chef guy eating the pepper set to Fury of the Storm, set a Pandora station for it, started diving. Absolutely jammed Kamelot and Hammerfall then. Back then Pandora gave a song off of Origin - Echoes of Decimation as like, the third or fourth suggested song for Dragonforce which is so crazy it stuck in my mind to this day. loving hilarious in retrospect. Favs from my first dives into Pandora are definitely Dark Moor and Falconer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1ZFXFQ_ZIM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8OaRmEVRCc

Killingyouguy! posted:I was really into System of a Down when I was a kid, and of course knew about like Metallica and Iron Maiden from my dad, but dragonforce was also my intro into, like, metal that didn't get played on the radio I can't do the full on cheesy Rhapsody albums with all the interstitial storytelling and poo poo but the compilations of their bangers like Tales from the Emerald Sword Saga are pretty fun.

Power metal led to Master of Puppets and becoming a thrash fan which led to Death and that was the ballgame.

Vulture Culture posted:yeah, given the black speed moniker, I'm surprised how much Dissection I'm hearing, mostly in the vocals but sometimes also in the guitar This album's got more Dissection-style melodic black metal and NWOBHM influence than the previous two which were like thirty minutes of pedal to the metal blackened speed/thrash. The more straightforward and short tracks on the album - Goat Vomit Nightmare, Hissing Marches, and Poison Womb - are more like his previous stuff. James McBain has made some palpable improvements as a song writer, arranger, and player on this album and he's bringing in more influences and it rules. Henchman of Santa posted:Excited to listen to the two Ulthar albums today. Also their guitarist/vocalist apparently got diagnosed with throat cancer after recording so he might not ever growl again. Editing to say these were also absolutely fantastic and some of the best death metal I've listened to this year. Great day for releases.

Blasting the new Hellripper a lot and it's growing on me - I thought the first half was a triumph and the second half was okay to good at first and now I'm starting to like the second half some more. Put me in a mood for some harder death/blackened thrash also so I've come back to old Skeletonwitch and it still rips.

Riot Bimbo posted:yeah no, like this isn't great. it's better than what i thought them capable of, which is why it's like "why does this sound off?" but my prediction is the entire album is gonna be a fairly sad pastiche of their prior work I honestly thought Lux Aeterna was like a Kill 'Em All song with no energy - honestly playing it 30bpm faster would probably help it a lot - but it's not terrible. Pastiche is an apt description there. Hardwired's title track absolutely was wildly energetic and captured that old thrasher energy in a way that Lux does not. This song sounds like a lot of the Death Magnetic-onward filler songs where they just write a handful of boring riffs with some bends in them, sit on one for a minute and a half in the song, then move onto the next one. I don't think it sounds like a pastiche of the old poo poo so much as their post-Rubin house style for phoning it in - if it sounded like their old poo poo it would at least be potentially good or at the very least weirder than this is. I also think I've been having the same conversations and thoughts about Metallica for the past 15 years other than being delightfully surprised by how much I liked the title track to Hardwired before being disappointed by the fact the rest of the album was boring.

Nazzadan posted:Time for new poo poo because it is Friday listened to gorod, judiciary, and frozen crown today. gorod: got exactly what i expected when i played a gorod album: pretty fuckin good tech death. judiciary: little more on the hardcore side than thrashy. tightly written album, pretty good. frozen crown: this is my first time listening to frozen crown. if this band existed when i was 16 it would have been one of my favorite bands at the time - rhapsody-esque power metal replacing the goofy interstitials with a wintersun or kalmah-esque melodeath influence in riff-writing is a hell of a concept. i think this is pretty good but i like the pitch way more than the execution here - there are a couple of bangers but most of the tracks are just okay to good.
