Hole of Horcum Superthread

I've never DI'd in my life.

I mean, I listened to Ashley's playlist, but only because she knows where I live.

But the whole DI thing is so much fun!

Now time for LMP to hate on Friends Are Evil.

 

[LMP]

Jesu wants you all to know that Friends Are Evil.

Axver, what songs on here would you firmly say are metal?

 

[LemonMelon]

I actually rather enjoy the first two. Though going for death metal, I feel maybe the second needs to be heavier.

The fourth one absolutely cracked me up. Holy shit. That's awesome indie pretension right there.

I need to get a heavier guitar tone and a faster beat going for track 2. The riff is good, but it wouldn't kill it to be faster.

Track 3 won't be so boring when it's done, I swear.

To show you my creativity, not so you could call me crazy

It's too much effort on my part to make a playlist, let alone listen to a bunch of them and decide which I like better.

 

[LMP]

The Jesu track isn't that terrible, most of that was transferred to the Agalloch song. It's just pretty boring, that's all.

 

[Axver]

who is chass?

Don't be fooled by the male name, it's DOL.

Well, I suppose nearly male. Just every time I see it, I think of Chas Licciardello of The Chaser. And he's fucking hilarious.

 

[LMP]

Had to skip along this one, too, but the segue into the Long Distance Calling track was really well-done.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

It's not a male name! It's short for an awful female one.

It's Chasity, and no I don't wear iron underwear.

Axver, what songs on here would you firmly say are metal?

Without any qualification:

- Agalloch
- Arcturus
- Sculptured

With qualification:

- Riverside (prog rock/metal)
- Russian Circles (post-metal)
- The Sea, Like Lead (post-metal)
- Anathema (in their transition phase out of metal)
- Jesu (drone doom, roots in metal)

And Green Carnation's a metal band, but the track is taken from their non-metal album.

I can't classify Subterranean Masquerade and you'd see what I mean if you heard their other tracks (Kind Of A Blur is a soaring orchestral track that sounds like it's by another band, for instance). I consider them avantgarde death rock, for lack of anything else more precise.

 

[LMP]

The narration on The Very Last Day absolutely kills me. This can be the theme song to An Inconvenient Truth.

Without any qualification:

- Agalloch
- Arcturus
- Sculptured

With qualification:

- Riverside (prog rock/metal)
- Russian Circles (post-metal)

What would one have to do to successfully transfer out of metal?

elmel will you repost the link?

Chass, I said you were on crack, NOT crazy


And your name's spelled wrong *runs*

 

[Axver]

Well, Anathema started out as one of the leading doom death bands. Then their death vocalist quit. The albums subsequent to that lead from death metal into a dark kind of alternative rock. Their latest stuff has been rather subdued atmospheric rock.

What's the difference between regular metal and doom death? Or is that self-explanatory?

Ahh, now that makes more sense then.

Same difference.

And NO IT'S NOT. You and Microsoft can kiss my one-T ass

sorry when i typed it ax's commentary on your samples was right above it, but my internet flipped out. i wanna listen to the pretend DI stuff you made.


i am giving up on dl'ing real DI for now, my internet keeps blipping and stopping the DLs and I have to go back to the various upload sites...

 

[Axver]

Doom death was an early nineties meeting of doom metal (which was started by the likes of Black Sabbath and progressively got slower and heavier) and death metal.

You can view it two ways: either death metal slowed to the speed of doom metal, or doom metal with death metal vocals.

ok ax, anathema:

i'm listening to parts of judgement now, i liked emotional winter best. is this waht you were referring to by dark atmospheric rock? or is there a later album i might like better? i don't like the heavy metal songs on the album

 

[Axver]

The Oxford English Dictionary would like to have a word with you and your parents.

THANK YOU AXVER!

Take that Chass

I don't think there's any metal at all on Judgement, except perhaps Pitiless.

They get softer with each subsequent album, really. I highly recommend A Fine Day To Exit. Release in particular is an awesome track.

I'll choose choice B.

Sculptured not only opened with another sampling, but the death growls have returned. I was getting worried.
