Are there any sites or blogs out there that do good reviews for a wide array of genres and bands (barely even heard of to Metallica)? I find that skimming through reviews has been a good way for me to discover new bands.

gently caress yesssssssssssss, looks like there's a new GOOOOOOOOROOOOOOOOOOOD album out this month! I can't loving wait, even though I'm not sure how I feel about the preview song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=898nYYqS4Bg They got Christian Muenzner from Obscura, and The Faceless' Mike Keene to do guest solos so I dont even know anymore oh god Album cover is weird as poo poo, though. Their previous albums had weird art but in kind of a cool way, this one is just funny looking

Sounds like you need some Gorod in your life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RsG1Vo7kYo&hd=1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xk33XxnPJNs&hd=1 But yeah I understand what you mean. So far there's been 3 tech death bands that stand out to me: Gorod, Spawn of Possession and Necrophagist (< might be because it's the band that got me into the genre, so I might be biased). Gorod is probably my favorite band in the genre since it's just so god drat groovy and catchy I can't get enough of it, while still remaining brutal . SoP has this crazy sinister sound and some catchy melodies to boot, and Necrophagist well gently caress I dont know, I just like them for some reason. Oh gently caress I almost forgot Beyond Creation, they're just awesome. The rest of the tech death that I've heard has been pretty boring and forgettable, especially this recent "brutal tech death" that apparently exists now. Tech death is probably my favorite genre because I'm a shallow idiot that needs something to hold my attention through out the songs. The typical verse, chorus, verse, chorus, solo, verse, chorus structure, where the verse consists of like 3 chords and the chorus is 3 different ones, just doesn't hold my attention.

The Clit Avoider posted:Early Morbid Angel is actually extremely technical and yet doesn't sound it because of the song structure they employed. And At the Gates may well be the kings of song structure. Yeah, sorry, I didn't mean to state it as a fact that every genre that isn't tech death is generic and boring. I've just had some trouble finding something I like as much as tech death that isn't tech death.

If you like sloppy and dirty tech death you might enjoy Sleep Terror. It's maybe not the sloppiest or the dirtiest but its loving good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ERHU7vBSAo&hd=1

Yeah the new Gorod album is really good. Does anyone know anything about The Faceless' new album? I saw on metalstorm that it was set for release in February, but then it just disappeared. Oh and I hope the new Gojira album comes out this month! EDIT: OH YEAH JEFF LOOMIS ALBUM SAMPLER GET YOUR SHRED OUT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeJXxsbzYX0 Kevin Bacon fucked around with this message at 15:11 on Mar 12, 2012 |

Has anyone here ever heard of a french metal band called Symbyosis? They did a big 2-CD release thing in 2005, and I've been listening to it a lot. I think it's pretty good! But then again I like a lot of weird and lovely bands so proceed with caution. Here's a couple of songs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDZC2juXmME http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkLcD59gDNg

The new The Faceless album just keeps getting better. I just learned that the guy who did the Sexy Sax Man thing played the guest saxophone solo in Deconsecrate. Old news but holy poo poo that's amazing
