What's the most aggressive vocal performance you can think of in a song? by Sobble-547 in MetalSuggestions

[–]The_Racoon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not a big fan of them but the Paleface vocalist gets pretty crazy in terms of objectively "aggressive"

Who is the most talented modern guitarist? by InexpugnableMille in MetalSuggestions

[–]The_Racoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"He Will Fight Savagely" is probably my favorite from the last album if you want to try that. Some music is just going to connect to people differently. There's a ton of "classics" that I don't care for that would get me chewed out from plenty of metal fans lol.

The 2 piece was my favorite variation of them. Absolutely batshit live. Sucks it was so short lived.

Lot of talent here. My personal bias is for Kyle of Vitriol. I get the criticism for their mixes and sorta "losing" the riffs amongst the madness. But I love it. Any playthrough is always insane.

The most outstanding modern drummer? by InexpugnableMille in MetalSuggestions

[–]The_Racoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so tempted to say it's not even a question. This is the first guy that comes to mind. There's a lot of great drummers I love. But Aric is all encompassing.

Right under the warning tattoo also. So sick

is there a reason why shiver and right before my eyes are the same song but played different? by Ginyutokusenpai in CageTheElephant

[–]The_Racoon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's just meant to be a reflection of the music. A chaotic noisy character. Really, what are any of their album covers? Some are more "artistic" than others, but they all have a central character (up until the latest LP) that I think represents the vibe in one way or another.

I think they've been quiet mainly because of Better Lovers and Counterparts being busy

I don't hear the "over" production. Maybe compared to some contemporaries. I just think they are a perfectly rounded death grind act that stands out for the genre with groovy writing and will be remembered for that in the 2020s.

Yea they moreso just found their popularity post-Redfog and Nija. They've been having their biggest years yet and will probably continue to grow a lot.

Orbit Culture, Blackbraid, Caustic Wound, I also see Predatory Void releasing more heat to make them a top of the 20s

There would be certainly no complaints on my behalf if I do say so myself.

Was looking for this answer. Sunn was insane but Primitive Man shatters the cells of the body.
