These fuckers have been doing the same album since 2009, what the hell happened?

 No.6055

Basically they ran out of ideas, I wrote a review for this album in the review thread.

Even worse is they can't even write good songs with the same style they have been using since six degrees.

If you are looking for standard quality progressive metal, there are many other bands to choose from. Heck I even feel that metropolis part 2 is weak and that is one of the most hyped up albums in prog metal history. Ridiculous.

Is metal immune to feminism?

I can't think of anything else where literally 100% of the audience would reject feminism entirely, none of their tricks work here.

>they can't call metal sexist because being looked down upon by society/being told to "turn down" is a major theme of a lot of metal

>they can't say it's offensive because that's half the point

>they can't demand that white men be replaced with women or non-whites because no one would support such an idea to the point that they'd have no one on their side at all

>they can't infect metal as a community because each metalhead has their own unique and very specific tastes while genres and subgenres are constantly at war and divided, although they all still possess the above traits

>they can't pretend that they've been 'longtime metal fans' like they do with video games because if they don't know what they're talking about it'll be extremely easy to tell, and with the exception of things like keeper of the seven keys, SOMEONE will call your taste shit.

>if they at some point gain any kind of a foothold on metal they'll be forced to deal with people like Joey DeMaio that would utterly destroy them in every way

And after seeing the whole reaction of everyone shitting on Phil Anselmo after the suppossed White Power thing, which ended up with the French goverment pulling funding from a festival in which Down was going to play, i think they are at least trying REALLY hard to fuck up metal.

I'm not even a big fan of the band but they are not pathetic. If you want pathetic bands just look at core genres. Dragonforce are more of a one-hit-wonder since Guitar Hero made Through The Fire and Flames so popular.

The reason I call them pathetic is that they had to speed up through the fire and the flames and most of their songs when people can play that fast normally.

Best lyrics ever, amirite?

 No.6006

Psychosomatic infestation, multisensoric infatuation

Mass media sublimination, tearing our defenses down

Feeding us shit as we beg for more, American way trend fucking whores

One's not enough, we need ten more, consume, digest, destroy, discard

Tearing in the afterbirth of a bastard child, a hated son

Looking on in disbelief, as our resources burn

This is our legacy, a crime against humanity

To feed our lives, everything must die

>From the moment we are born, until our days are dying

We're violated, crucified, and burned upon the corporate cross

A disposable economy, built on waste and tragedy

We eat the fast food of indifference, and suffocate as one

Coerced by our campaign, it demands our surrender

We're dying slowly, for the pleasure of this machine

Assembly lines automate, steal jobs from us all

They just don't give a fuck, no one gives a fuck

Just cower as these bastards gag on their riches

Living off the prayers and hopes of our families

It's all gone

In our qquest for convenience, sanity has died

Burying independant commerce under corporate shit

Multi-million ad campaign fulfills subconcious needs

Procreate our misery, feed the enemy

Bleed, fucking burn, burn this American dream

Pummel our independence, drive it to it's knees

No one to blame but ourselves as our capitalist dream collapses

And economic vengeance unleashed

Let it get so bad

Living with myself

Is all I have

I feel numb

I can't come to life

I feel like

I'm frozen in time

Living in a

World so cold

Wasting away

Living in a shell

With no soul

Since you've gone away

Living in a world so cold

Counting the days

Since you've gone away

You've gone away

Do you ever feel me

Do you ever look

Deep down inside

Staring at yourself

Paralyzed

I feel numb

I can't come to life

I feel like

I'm frozen in time

Living in a

World so cold

Wasting away

Living in a shell

With no soul

Since you've gone away

You walk through the subway, his eyes burn a hole in your back,

A footstep behind you, he lunges prepared for attack.

Scream for mercy, he laughs as he's watching you bleed,

Killer behind you, his blood lust defies all his needs.

My innocent victims are slaughtered with wrath and despise,

The mocking religion of hatred that burns in the night.

I have no one, I'm bound to destroy all this greed,

A voice inside me compelling to satisfy me.

I can see what a life's meant to be,

And you'll never know how I came to foresee, see, see.

My faith in believing is stronger than lifelines and ties,

With the glimmer of metal my moment is ready to strike.

Death call arises, a scream breaks the still of the night,

Another tomorrow, remember to walk in the light!

I have found you, and now there is no place to run,

Excitement shakes me, oh God help me what have I done?!

Oooh yeah, I've done it!

YEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHH!

You walk through the subway, my eyes burn a hole in your back,

A footstep behind you, he lunges prepared for attack.

Scream for mercy, he laughs as he's watching you bleed,

Killer behind you, my blood lust defies all my needs.

Oooh look out, I'm coming for you!

Ahahahaha!

Well, to be honest I found the show rather anusing, but you're certainly right about the music. It's kind of "metal for people who don't listen to metal". And it most definitely is shit.

But not to let this thread continue as a shitstorm about deathklok, I guess I'll write one more short review aside from Batushka.

So, Kriegsmaschine. Altered states of divinity. A rather simple album. It has solid quality, enough to make out each and every instrument easily, but distorted enough that it doesn't seem like it's new. The composition is rather simple as well, you won't find melodic riffs, you won't find sweep picking solos or anything like that. It's raw, powerful and immersive. I'd recommend at the very least to check out the title song, through the eyes of the blind, or beyond the veil. best pieces in my opinion

Good to see many people are posting in the thread.

Was listening to this at work, and I haven't had the motivation to write for many days so here goes.

Echoes of the Moon - Entropy

A one man band from USA, worships wolves in the throne room but I find that this guy's riffs in the music to be more simplistic and easy to make out, therefore it is much comfortable to listen to when you compared to other bands of the same genre.

This album clocks over 70 minutes and I really like how the tempo of the music is not too fast, or raw but just nice, great for comfy listening.

Came up on my playlist at work.

Maya - The Prophecy Is Broken

Hailing from italy, 7/10 album, pretty good. Metal archives lists the genre as symphonic progressive metal but to me it felt more like melodic heavy metal.

Lots of decent tracks with catchy choruses, musically this kinda reminds me of vanden plas, the vocals are decent enough to listen to.

It's been awhile but now that Jewsh is out for good and hotwheels is fixing our site. Time to continue.

Symphony X - Underworld

Amazing right off the bat when you listen to the 2nd track "Nevermore", I have never been a huge fan of symphony X but this album won over me.

Some comparisons, I used to like their "Paradise Lost" and "The odyssey" albums a lot but over time kinda got bored with them, when "Iconoclast" came out, I felt that it sucked, not enough melody and catchy choruses but this album seems to be perfect.

The classic symphony X is still here with Michael Romeo's amazing guitar licks and Russel Allen's strong vocals but this time they are focusing on separate songs rather than do a concept album and it works.

The best track is "To hell and back" really fucking emotional opener and the song doesn't drop it's awesomeness till the fucking end, almost every other track in this album is memorable, if not for it's bridges and catchy choruses. Definitely recommended to fans of prog metal in general, this is high quality prog metal that is standard with no gimmicks.

On a unrelated note, I also felt like writing some reviews for Dream Theater albums, since their new album just released a few days ago, just felt like I need to get some rants on dream theater out of my system.

Continued from >>6011

This album, I really wanted to like this album based on these reasons 1) It's the biggest dream theater album thus far 2) Mangini must have already gotten used to his role because he is in the band for more than 4 years 3) It's a bloody concept album, which I haven't seen since metropolis part 2 or six degrees (if you count the 2nd disc)

But once again, this album's flaws are the same as dream theater's recent outputs, which starts to make me wonder maybe it wasn't portnoy alone who drove the band to this direction, they were already out of ideas to begin with! Here are the obvious problems:

1) Too much concept, not enough music

When there is a concept album, what you really need is to set a variety of tones and melodies for the album and what does this album do? Cram a bunch of ballads whenever they needed to narrate something, oh boy, which makes all of the songs sound alike!

2) Childlike story despite it's serious setting

So the music is bland but the story doesn't makes it better, you have a dystopia and yet the characters in this story seems to come out from a disney cartoon. What's up with all those names? and what's with the whole idea of having music being the ultimate solution to freedom? Why drag the story out to 2 discs only to have such a lame conclusion? There is very little struggle and emotional content in the writing let alone the music that is meant to convey this.

3) So other than ballads, what about the other "heavier" tracks?

I have a huge problem with their previous "self-titled" album and that is apart from the 3 minute opener, the rest of the album is pretty crap, and this is considering dream theater hasn't changed their style since six degrees but at least back then, you have a couple of really good songs in each album. This album along with their previous work holds no special songs at all. I think the best track in this album is probably the "dystopia overture" which lets you know in advance what kind of melodiesPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Hail, I am but a casual listener but today I heard this beautiful song. Their lyrics speak to me deeper than anything else I've ever heard. I wish these lyrics were part of a religious text that every child was forced to listen to and meditate on.

Can you recommend songs with messages in them? Does not have to have comprehensible vocals.
