Who cares, it's death metal

[Jesus_lol]

they're lyrics are pretty nasty, even by death metal standards(primarily with their first singer), but not satanic, which is what this thread is about.

yeah, varg, i didnt hear any particularily good guitar work either with burzum, i can forgive a lot of otherwise terrible bands, if their guitar playing rocks.
though on another listen right now, they arent half bad. vocals are a little too much torture for me, i prefer stuff from immortal, destroyer 666 and belphegor.

I LOVE Metal.

Though now I listen to mostly metalcore and hardcore now.

Music is just taste really no matter what anyone says.

If anyone is curious for a taste of good Christian metalcore/hardcore, just drop me a line!!!!

How about The Sword?

just did. it was ok, but there has to be a billion metal songs with better solos than that, my ipod is filled with them.
not really my lyrical/vocal style, and while i like the atmosphere he gets with keyboards/guitar in some songs i just cant enjoy something made by a churchburning, friend murdering neo nazi.

thats what i get when i start to write one sentence and then finish with another "They're pretty terrible" + "their lyrics are pretty terrible."

[Jesus_lol]

so i found an awesome new band! Insomnium is a melodic Death metal band, with amazing often beautiful instrumentation, very minor key harmonies, and basically poetry for lyrics, though often sung typical death metal style.

these guys are awesome, and of of the few metal bands i actually love their lyrics.

[quote] Insomnium - In the Groves of Death
In the evening of a grey day, a bleak day
I strayed into the dim silence of the hallowed trees
Where the fir-trees whisper of those been, those gone
Where the sacred earth still hides all those we once loved

"O father, hear these words, your son is not made for this world
Faint-hearted and careworn, into this vile life I was hurled
In the woods the fiends sigh, I swear I heard the demons neigh
On the seashore I espy the dreadful void under the tides"

Ill-assorted with this life, these cares
Each moment I am waiting for the worst to come my way
Dark berry from my mother's womb; a frail one
I was affrighted at my birth, bewildered from the start

Better it would be to stay in the shades
In the thicket of the dead, in the groves of death
Here I would lie to the end of the days

"Hear me now, my hapless son
Warn away all yours fears
Make good use of your brief days
Life may be grim but death is more austere
By yourself you sit and wait
By yourself you will have time to repent"

"In these lowly halls
No moon will beam, no sun will shine
In these narrow rooms
No tears are seen, no laughter heard"

At the dawn of a quiet day
I strolled from the woods, returned to the hearth
And with a restful mind I roamed
The dreary shores, the darkling wilds
Greeting all the days that befall
Taking life as it comes
[/quote]



all their lyrics are terrific, also no sign of religion bashing.

I don't agree. I can make some pretty awful music if prompted.

The only metal worth listening to anymore is either about Satan or suicide.

Fail.

Most metal isnt about satan at all, and suicide doesnt come up very often either.

[Guest ZeweInAeternum]

I suppose I could have worded that better. The only [i]new[/i] metal worth listening to is either about Satan or suicide.*

Rabid metalhead since I was 12 or so, I've become tremendously disillusioned with the scene as a whole. The only new poo that does it for me anymore is experimental DSBM and doom, really. And occasional Razorback releases.
