Moronic Death Metal Bands

Never really listened to death metal, but the name itself sounds depressing.
 
Yeah they are all morons....

Morons who are more technically proficiant at their instruments than most other genres.

If you don't like the music...fair enough...just say you dont like it and move onto something you do.
 
Why the fck do people moan about a whole genre?It has to depend on songs.
 
Anyways I used to hate death metal earlier and thought it wasn't music aswell but the more i started to listen,the more I got hooked on to it.I like all genres.Its some songs I dont like if they are not good.How the fck can one say that a whole genre is shit?
 
I may infract myself for having good taste in music.

Before I go on a bit of a rant may I ask what music you listen too?

its a bit like classical music.

if you havent got a trained ear, you dont get it.


You get it.

EDIT: I started a Metal thread in the general forum awhile ago, it should've been here my bad.

It has some good samples of good metal for those of you that want to have a listen.
 
They are all cnuts, its a crime to even suggest its 'Music'

You need to actually listen to the music, all the layers not just what's in your face. There are some bands that are torrid and poor excuses for music but many of them are very technical and only a trained ear can pick up on the subtleties.

I suggest you listen to a few Opeth songs to get a good idea of what death metal really is. If you are interested just let me know I can give you some good song titles to have a listen too.
 
You might find those who disagree.

We'll see in 500 years if Atheist has survived in the same way as Beethoven has.

You'd be surprised. Most of the original metal bands from the 80's still have strong followings among the younger crowd. Just look at Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Slayer etc.. They are certianly going to last a damn sight longer than Britney Spears, or Fall Out Boy etc.

Exactly, there are many bands that are utter shite, but labelling an entire genre bad because of a couple of bands is just ignorant.

It's like judging a book by it's cover, or letting one or two bad apples ruin the barrel. I can't think of any more cliches right now lol but when I do I'll post them:P
 
All music has shit at the forefront of the genre. You have to dig deep to find the real gems, plus there are so many sub-genres in metal, it's easy to just lump it all together and label it shit.

Very true.

I watched that documentary Metal: A Headbanger's Journey. Even though I'm not a big fan of metal it was really interesting.

The Norwegian Black metal bands were hilarious....

That documentary was awesome, really well done. The black metal bands are hilarious - that interview with Mayhem was retarded, those guys are beyond stupid.
 
Metal as a genre is fantastic, and Death Metal can be very varied. Some bands, Cannibal Corpse, are amazingly talented at each of their instruments, but the lyrics are very difficult to understand.

Death Metal is great as a whole.
 
You just cant judge by hearing few bands, there are so many bands and the styles of death metal are various.
 
I feel they're all like this.

Who agrees with me?
Me,100%.I hate death metal.
I like Purple,Priest,Sabbath and the like,but death metal is like being in a phone booth with a jack-hammer.
 
I like death metal bands like Death, Morbid Angel, Cryptopsy, Deicide, Obituary or Suffocation.

They are playing really good, technical metal with strong riffs and great drum parts.

The new album from Bolt Thrower "Those once loyal" is really great, can't get out of my head. :devil:

im quite sure, without knowing you at all, that you dont listen to beethoven.

but arguing about music doesnt make sense anyways.
it still baffles me that millions of people buy 50cent or brittney spears albums.

Some may like Death metal, some may hate it but I hope we can all agree that more thought and technical prowess are needed to create it than bloody Britney or fiddy cent.

I'm terribly sorry for that size, but it shows how many bands and how long history Death Metal have.

But still... After Chuck Shuldiner's death, this music genre had a very big crisis.

Many "moronic" new bands with pseudo satanic ideas entered and destroyed a good, old death metal style.

But still there are great bands to listen and I'm very happy that Cannibal Corpse still murdering the music. :lol: ;)
 
I think you missed 'Placenta Bucket' or 'Bucket of Placenta' or someshit there Piorsing.

The stupid angry khuntos.
 
You just have to hear them in a different arrangement to appreciate them Jason.

Take Cannibal Corpse for example:

 
take those cannibal corpse lyrics....

the sex pistols were poor musicians but shocked with excellent understanding of social unrest, and shocked that way.

Eminem was contraversial through humour of tense subjects and drugs....cleverly sewn together.

i can site plenty of examples.

Rancid amputation.......oh dear o dear

Torsos hang from their own intestines
Raped of all bodily extentions, stumps wreathing in a sludge
Like infection
Suffering through a Rancid amputation
A pulsating artery accomanied by some veins, slit with no restraint
Sacs of pus develop
My muscles tighten as I feel the rush
I look at your body starting gush

I slice through the limb,
a human dissection portions of half-eaten flesh in my mouth
starting to chew your now bleeding stump

I will swallow your pus your own rectal slime
I'll force you to drink
Vessels explode as needles injected
Uncontrollable
My brain tormented
Slit from head to toe, die through the torture
Disease engulfs you
Internal rot
Fresh cut wounds, beginning to clot
Ripping through flesh is what I do best
Tear off an arm
Amputated neck
Eyes removed, cranium smashed
Decomposing remains, severed in half
Dying slowly never to rest, nerves are quivering as I trip
Removal of life on the blade of my knife
Inserted in your spine, smashing through bone
Feel my hell, I feed on fright
Rape the limbless cadaver


and check the review by a music fan

I love this song, amazing intro, amazing song, amazing everything although it wouldve been better without that solo, great lyrics, its obvious they took like 9 years to come up with amazing lyrics like that, and great instrument work


:lol::lol::lol:
 
I find Death Metal itself mind dumbingly boring. Even the so called elite bands like Death or Morbid Angel do nowt for me.

Even worse however is "melodic" DM, a scene populated by godawful shite like Iced Earth, In Flames, Chiidren of Bodom (worse band in the world ever imo) et al. Gayer than emo and usually played by Scandinavians.
 
this means feck all though. so they can can fingertap uber fast....so what?

Can YOU fingertap really fast ??

can you sweep pick ?

I'm not saying these are staple marks of being in a great band...obviously what it comes down too is if these things serve the song.

And it most cases they do, but if your not liking death metal now, im not going to begin to suggest it is something you will be turned on to.

but my point was don't call them morons when it takes a lot of hard work and dedication plus a fair amount of intelligence to be able to do the thingsdeath metal instrumentalists do.
