18:53 - Carrion Misery Same for me, but it is the reverse. I dreaded power metal until I started to sing along. The pure skill/talent involved is very inspiring.
18:49 - Apothecary A good 4-5 years ago I used to hate extreme vocals in metal, til I tried them out myself and realized how much effort and talent really goes into them. Loved extreme metal ever since :)
18:41 - Carrion Misery It's funny how we can point this stuff out, but I know so many people could care less lol. That's why I love metal so much since there's so much to converse about.
18:37 - EMols86 Carrion Misery, I was just about to say the same thing about lyrical themes defining a genre, because they do not. Maybe some themes are very common in certain styles, but it doesn't define the style...
18:34 - EMols86 Look at doom bands like Candlemass, Solstice, Isole, Krux, Solitude Aeternus, 40 Watt Sun and Cathedral. Not exactly the same styles, but all clean vocals without growls. I rest my case. :-)
18:33 - Apothecary Honestly I dunno why you got swarmed for that. Piece Of Time is probably the most thrash-y Atheist album, the whole proggy/technical side of the band started with Unquestionable Presence, really
18:33 - Carrion Misery Well, the music would still matter greatly in that case whether or not it's "blackened". I disagree that any lyrical content is genre specific though, but I see what you're saying.
UK's Dragged Into Sunlight are currently writing new material. But that is not all. The band has also released their new collaboration with Gnaw Their Tongues. You can stream the track over here or on the player below. It seems like it won't be available for a long time, so enjoy it while you can.
From their official Facebook page: "Locked in the confines of our respective caves - writing, creating and self-destructing, we are pleased to announce that work has begun on a follow up to Hatred For Mankind. In the interim, we wish to share with you a hideous and disfigured collaboration with our fellow wrongdoers in Gnaw Their Tongues. Produced and curated by M.C De Jong & Tom Dring.
This track will disappear tomorrow. Kill it. Announcements soon, the calm before the storm."
The only sad thing about this is that it's just 6 minutes instead of 40-60.
What a colossal sound... Could easily wipe out a lot of the competition when it comes to extreme metal this year.

Like, uh... Widowmaker.
I don't remember Widowmaker being nearly as good as this stuff tbh.
Take it back. Widowmaker is insanity molded into plastic. Have you ever listened to that shit high? It's outerbody. It split the crowd for sure but jokes on those who expected another hatred for mankind, I have a lot of time for a band that does what the hell they want, these guys are outside the box, one of the best in doom, noise, bm, extreme music generally.....

You don't have to expect a Hatred For Mankind pt. 2 to get disappointed. I know that was my case.

Having to be high to find something good is not an indictment of the quality of the music in question, it just means you're high. Widowmaker was a let down for me.
