'Death metal round table' made Chris Barnes (Six Feet Under, ex-Cannibal Corpse) 'physically ill'

death metal round table

Former Cannibal Corpse and current Six Feet Under vocalist Chris Barnes took to Twitter earlier today to express contempt for 'A Death Metal Round Table' video discussion recently streamed by Knotfest.

The session featured George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher (Barnes' replacement in Cannibal Corpse), Trevor Strnad (The Black Dahlia Murder), Chase Mason (Gatecreeper), and Alex Jones (Undeath) having a wide-ranging conversation.

Barnes said of the video, "I just watched a 'death metal' podcast on YouTube that was done about a week ago with the 'top' death metal vocalists... it made me physically ill. I despise what this genre has become."

His failure to provide additional context appears to have prompted Hatebreed frontman and podcaster Jamey Jasta to ask Barnes to "come on the podcast and discuss."

Barnes wasn't having it, concluding a little back-and-forth with Jasta via, "I'm just not a shill." You can check out their brief interaction below.

There is NO Death Metal round table without Mike Smith and Frank Mullen of Suffocation. Without them this is a manchild Zoom group. What toys has 'Dickgrinder' purchased lately?

He's never been a shill for used car companies...

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:20:23 PM

he has a point. every genre is now a lame facsimile and profit extraction is the central focus of everyone besides the attendees

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:23:09 PM

Barnes is obviously vaxxed and boosted. Therefore a schill for big pharma. FACTS.

How about you google "shill", f*cktard

Barnes is a bitter loser who is probably even poorer than he looks.

Dino here. Hey my phone was turned off. Does anyone mind if I use the comments to group message and organize for rehearsals?

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:31:27 PM

i always assumed Six Feet Under WAS making a joke of death metal. on purpose. you mean that shit wasn't supposed to be a parody?

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:36:53 PM

Chris Barnes is mad Cannibal Corpse is better without him than with him. Six Feet Under. "groove death". get the hell out of here with that homo shit

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:42:05 PM

Dude is salty other death metal bands are more successful than his, more at 11

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:46:11 PM

Saw Six Feet Under on Summer Slaughter in 2011 and Barnes couldn't sing it all. It was like he was gargling crickets or something. It was unbelievably bad. And that was 12 years ago. His band has gone to crap, they can't draw anything on the road in the U.S. and he's obviously bitter on top of that.

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:46:45 PM

Chris Barnes here, I am sorry, i should not have taken it out of these guys. I am really upset. Corpsegrinder is more popular than me, my band sucks. everyone laughed at our covers. i can't keep a band together. misery signals made fun of me. it really really sucks being me. Dino, can I be in your band?

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:49:37 PM

Interesting way of saying "my band is long washed up and can't get a gig outside of germany". He's just mad cuz he calls himself "the godfather of death metal" and nobody else does.

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:52:55 PM

I mean... Yeah lol

" misery signals made fun of me " lol please elaborate

Yes Chris I am still holding auditions for Fear Factory DC vocalists. Please send me some stills and a demo tape. Let me know you've received this. Regards -Dino

anonymous 1/27/2022 1:58:51 PM

Todd Jones here. I was going to keep this under the table, but the guys from Knotfeast hit me up to take part in this round table. I agreed, but only on the condition that instead of appearing via Zoom, I would "beam" into the discussion via the hidden nano-robotic network that the already-sentient AI developed by the Dimex Corporation has already installed into our everyday technocracy. The Knotfeast crew said that they had no idea what I was talking about, but I was given an IP address to beam into. When I neural-linked with the AI network, my blood-soaked wolf champion DNA started leaching into the AI's vast architecture. Homeboys on the chitty-chat didn't even realize it, but they were literally bathing in the distilled essence of pure hate that I injected into what will eventually become the true champion of all creation: an indestructible deity that eschews the impossible and KILLS DEATH ITSELF. The former undefeated GOAT has been latered for eternity. It will never be one of us.

anonymous 1/27/2022 2:03:25 PM

Chase singer of Gatecreeper here. Barnes is just heated because I have more OnlyFans scene girls following me on Twitter than he does.

anonymous 1/27/2022 2:08:03 PM

What else are we supposed to expect from the biggest hack in death metal history? He was decent for 5 or 6 years yet he has been the literal worst that the genre has to offer for the last 28 years. Let that sink in.

anonymous 1/27/2022 2:13:01 PM

Ah man, I grew up with the Barnes-era Cannibal and early Six Feet and it's a shame that he's that bitter and cold. Sucks to suck and I'll listen to those records with fond memories of old.

anonymous 1/27/2022 2:13:34 PM

Fred owner of Park Auto Mall. Watch as Chris Barnes From Six Feet Under Tells The World about his purchase at Park Auto Mall. It's important to note that Chris did this at no charge. Why? He's a hell of a nice guy, and very down to earth.

anonymous 1/27/2022 2:16:17 PM

I'm sorry to say but, the world will probably be a better place once this dude dies. What a bitter, toxic arsehole

anonymous 1/27/2022 2:16:31 PM

Jamey Jasta here. Dave Mustaine did not speak to me once during that entire tour. I really could have used a poc for instagram.

anonymous 1/27/2022 2:52:26 PM

Dude, Hoya's podcasts consists of talking about shows he/they (they being the guests) went to, being around back in the day and supporting the "movement". They're all the same.

lol @ 'sven from aborted' ^^ well don't expect people to know his last name because Decaluwé is too Belgian sounding ;) other than that, if you can put in some guy from undeath and trevor strnad you can put in svencho as well logically.

anonymous 1/27/2022 3:09:55 PM

"I am not trying to jump on that bandwagon of podcasts and streams you guys got going", Chris said from Twitter.

Not to mention gatecreeper. Could've at least asked Matti Kärki too, LG being dead.

Regardless of Chris's salty attitude I think he has a point, though it's poorly expressed.

anonymous 1/27/2022 4:04:47 PM

He has a point. The retard from Hatebreed and some nancyboy cuck rockers from Gatecreeper and Brown Deli Martyr are representative of anal butt rock supported by sissy xers. Be an adult and listen to Arghoslent. Cry about it.

Hey Jamey you're the last person to lecture anyone about supporting new bands & a genre of music. When's the last time Hatebreed played a straight up hardcore show or put a HC band on a HB show? You currently have a poll on your Twitter asking people who should support Hatebreed on the 20th anniversary tour for Perserverance. You don't have ONE HARDCORE BAND among the four picks. Hatebreed is NOTHING without hardcore. Your four contestants should be INTEGRITY, SICK OF IT ALL, ALL OUT WAR & TERROR. INTEGRITY cuz you personally don't exist as a hardcore kid without them. SICK OF IT ALL cuz your now 28 year old hustle doesn't exist without them. ALL OUT WAR cuz they came up when you did & are your contemporaries besides that you took their drummer. TERROR cuz they formed the year Perserverance came out & are the last active band from that era left. I'll add ENTOMBED cuz you've been ripping them off musically since the first album you bitc ha ss motherf u c ker.

anonymous 1/27/2022 4:19:30 PM

Chris is right Death Metal is for PC neck beard libcuck soys at this point not carnival workers and meth cooks. Everything has become a fashion statement for soys and nothing remains in any genuine uncalculated form

Everyone there was trying hard not to laugh. I was embarrassed for them

No one has cared about Chris Barnes since like 2004

anonymous 1/27/2022 7:59:39 PM

Some real idiots here. Check this out. The first two CC records absolutely suck. Turn of the vocals and try to listen to them. Notice anything on tomb? Yeah they just out the vocals right up front in the mix. CC got better as a band over time… nobody gave a crap about them at first. They were a gimmick… the gimmick was Chris Barnes. The vocals. He was the draw… it wasn't the band. Nobody knew or heard anything like that before. It was by far the most brutal death metal vocal and he was the reason CC was successful in the early years. End of story. Musically early CC wasn't keeping up with Death, Morbid Angel, Deicide, Suffucation, Obituary… Don't give me this he sucks now BS. When they came out and we saw those covers everyone wanted to go see them… and everybody was trying to do impressions of how low you could get your Chris Barnes vocals… we've all done it. GTFU with this bogus he's a pussy… or what has he done lately. There is no CC without Barnes

anonymous 1/27/2022 8:05:31 PM

You also have to understand why his voice is shot… they were super primitive. They played those early shows living out of a f*cking van. Playing small shows sometimes with no monitors, straight into the house mixer, he wasn't using any effect. That's all Barnes. I heard him in the day. I f*cking dare you to try to even do that for 5 filing seconds and they would play for an hour and the consecutive days… yeah he's a real pussy….f*cking idiots. The guy doesn't have vocal chords

anonymous 1/28/2022 3:07:39 AM

anonymous 1/28/2022 5:48:32 AM

God damn this guy is as stupid as he was over a decade ago. The bands aren't the f*cking shills, nor are they responsible for the state of the genre. It's labels, promoters, venues, the f*cking internet. These are the results and yes they are kind of awful. It's crazy, it's almost like it has something to do with our rapidly declining "produce nothing but extract profits out of thin air" economic system!

anonymous 1/28/2022 6:21:17 AM

What do you think he does for money these days? sells nickelbags to unsuspecting six feet under fans at the entrance of their concerts/shows-he is NOT making much off of those transactions either because you can tell just by looking at him, his herb is "Dirt weed." T.H.C.-(T)he (H)ippie (C)orpse.

I live to see the day that Chris has a trache and a voice box trying to do his feeble old school cannipple Corpse vocals. they were super primitive. They played those early shows living out of a f*cking van. Playing small shows sometimes with no monitors, straight into the house mixer, he wasn't using any effect. That's all Barnes. I heard him in the day. I f*cking dare you to try to even do that for 5 filing seconds and they would play for an hour and the consecutive days… yeah he's a real pussy….f*cking idiots. <---The guy doesn't have vocal chords.

anonymous 1/28/2022 9:27:39 AM

^^^ Misery Signals and I think Premonitions of War were on tour with SFU and nobody was showing up. on the last few dates SFU took all the money and wouldn't pay the support bands. Then somebody threw a brick through the window of SFU's bus, then Barnes was calling the Misery Signals agent and saying that he was going to beat everyone's asses when they came to Tampa next time. Misery Signals basically kept calling Barnes a pussy in interviews and used a tape of his phone call threatening them as part of their live show for a while

anonymous 1/28/2022 9:31:20 AM

as far as no CC without Barnes, we have seen this to be the case, they have existed and done better without him. also I am sure Alex Webster (the real brains behind the whole thing) could have gotten anyone to burp over his music

anonymous 1/28/2022 10:27:33 AM

I still like SFU but I have to laugh at Barnes calling other people shills when his social media has become a neverending flood of him shilling his Cameo.
