Post CommentRAWWRR. NEWJACKS AND RED CHORD SHIRTS, RAWWWR.
"These people are tasteless morons who should be gassed along with their useless opinions." hahaha. good review.
Great album; new material sounds great live. but they needed a longer set on the Nile tour... very focused and interesting songs; and pretty heavy production; solid release (but short)
Baddass album; really talented dudes; though a leading band already they should be a great death metal act for years, as long as they don't turn down a road like Carcass slipped into, and slow down
Covin pulls off great vocals live, i might add, and sounds a bit different then on the album, which is good cause all the old songs like Spheres of Madness sound perfect live.
New jab at the forum posters, it was entirely accurate and deserved.
"...newjacks who just recently traded in their Red Chord t-hirts for something more brutal, and have now begun the mad dash for message board credibility by bashing anything remotely -core related. These people are tasteless morons who should be gassed along with their useless opinions." - e.g. all of Lambgoat.
These guys are pretty tight, but they are by no means more brutal than Red Chord as the reviewer will have you believe. Anyways, should be picking this up soon.
Man this album is soooo brootal!! It rawks your face off!!. Get out here all you "core" fans, your not wanted. Death metal rules>>anything else
death metal is stupid and why no one will ever consider your opinion valid
Dave Fonesca doesn't care about The Red Chord.
Good review, I managed to track down one of the ltd/1000 UK version with dualdisc full DVD show + bonus full CD show (different one)...3 items...look into it if you think the album on its own is too short. p.s. your c-ck is too short
I like the red chord. People who are too brutal for "core" vocals were the subject of my criticism.
"most of the complaints about Covan's vocals appear to be coming from newjacks who just recently traded in their Red Chord t-hirts for something more brutal, and have now begun the mad dash for message board credibility by bashing anything remotely -core related. These people are tasteless morons who should be gassed along with their useless opinions". f*cking brilliant!!
and seriously, f*ck the red chord. shit band, two gigantic shits for albums. decapitated is infinitely more brutal and crushing.
This reviewer didn't f*ck around. Awesome record, and I like the Red Chord.
I'm so sick of people jocking death metal simply for it being Br0000tal. How f*cking childish is that. Its time to grow the f*ck up and listen music that displays some amount of actual talent. Sure, Decapitated have the chops, but even their spin on the genre doesn't take away from the fact that death metal is, in the end, mindless, repetative, boring, and inhabited by an infinate number of meatheads looking to hurt someone to feel strong. No care ever at all. I hope everyone knows the band is h
f*ck off "severed". And remember guys, ANYONE can play brutal music, so thats a pretty stupid reason to jock the genre. Shit, the Beatles could've played brutal death if they wanted to. Its as if people actually believe that death metalers play it because they have this "power" to be able to and are the only ones who can. Gosh thats funny.
LUCY IN THE SKY WITH MOTHERf*ckIN DIAMONDS!! BLAAARRRGGGG.
xxmaroofxx ought to not confuse death with 100 demons, diecast, or any number of shitty core gays. Last time I looked FSU and straightedge moshcore floordonkeypunchers weren't into dm. Try listening to Cryptopsy or Gorguts before opening your mouth.
I don't knwo about this album, I guess I just like the "dissonance" and true, death metal vocals dont always have to be "bruutal" but in the context the new vocals don't fit the band like the old vocals. P.S.xxmaroofxx is a gay.
Um, last I checked, I never once believed 100 demons, despised icon, or any other "core" bands had anything to do with death metal. I've seriously heard all the so called "greats" including suffocation, death, cryptopsy, devourment, kataklysm, dying fetus, necrophagist, and yes, decapitated, and none of them really did anything for me. O.K., Necrophagist did, and some later DEATH, but thats because they're technical death that actually write/wrote interesting songs. But brootal death seriously b
Arrgghhh, I hate you and the bands you like!!
floorpunching ninja warriors have ruined just about every hardcore show ive been to over the last several years. thank god we still have big drunk metal pits to enjoy and fall back on. decapitated = good.
all these songs are awesome for about a minute. then they get repetetive and boring.
ATTENTION f*ckBAGS: IF you don't like death metal, Decapitated or whatever, stuff the gay commentary. Boring? Repetative? Garbage? f*ck YOU! Because it doesn't do anything for you doesn't make it garbage. Who died and made you gay-king of all that is music? I wonder if anybody here can actually "play" any of this music, or even write something comparable. Or I guess I'm out on a limb here. Regardless, save your comments for your kind of music. And once again, Covan sounds completely different
This shit isn't hard to write, its just a little hard to play, from a drummer's standpoint anyway. Big wup, doesn't it make it good music. It also doesn't change the fact that it's still unitelligible, uninspired crap, unless of course your a f*ckin cro-mag. Death metal is made by and listened to by people just about as dumb or dumber than tough-guy hardcore bands. Listen only if you feel like getting dumber by the minute. Shitty Shitty Shitty!!
^ You are an ignorant fool. Tell that kind of shit to our faces, and see what happens. If you even knew some of these dudes, you'd eat your words. I live 10 minutes from Diet of Worms studios, and 30 or so from Mana- nobody working/recording there are the kind of people you think we are. You are sorely mis-informed. Again, you don't like death metal, fine, it doesn't do anything for you. Like all genre's, there are some pretty weak, block-headed bands. But there is surely a wealth of great musi
And from a drummer's standpoint, try telling Derrick Roddy or Eric Sandoval their music is easy to play. Comming from a guitarists view: it's not Malmsteen/Vai/other virtuoso level of playing, but it's by no means easy.
I love this album. haven't stopped listening to it since I picked it up. 9/10
Thats exactly what I said WAS hard to play. The drumming. I as a drummer am well aware I couldn't play 90% of death metal drumming. But that still doesn't make me like it. I don't know, I guess its just because the people in my town who listen to dm are usually stupid ghetto mexicans(I am hispanic), which gives me a bad impression. I respect the genre for what it is, but like you said, it just doesn't do anything for me. And you're right, I wouldn't say anything negative to any of your faces, fo
Six Feet Under, Cannibal Corpse = not exactly rocket science. Nile? Behemoth? older Slayer? Technical proficiency abounds, my friend, esp. in the guitar department. Anyone who has toured around the glob a bit will tell you, there are some dumbass fans out there. That's what keeps pop-culture music alive: dumb people listen to it, and bands/groups turn out even dumber music to keep them reeled in. But there are lots of more "sophisticated" fans too, or just those who appreciate solid musicianship
excellent review. and i dont just say that because i agree with it. this album stimulates me like none of you gays ever could
this album is a snore. get nihility.
haha, maroof is so gay, not everyone listens to death metal because its so brootal. i mean, for me i enjoy the energy of it.. if you dont like it, fine, i think its f*cking catchy as hell (yeah you heard me) anyway, i wasnt a fan before this album came out. buy it
I don't see whats so great about this album. Yea its GOOD, but doesn't deserve the hype everyone here seems to be giving it. They kinda sound like Living Sacrifice btw
good review. the album definitly would have been alot more interesting with some more dynamics in the vocal department, although i dont really mind them. kind of reminds me of wolverine blues era entombed only with less belt.
boom
