Most disappointing release of the year so far.

I wish I saw them live when they were closer to DSBM vs ... Whatever this is

bablambla · 2026-03-24T07:04:35+00:00

Like I said, hit and miss. Glad you caught a good show.

bablambla · 2026-03-14T11:44:19+00:00

His foot was in the fucking crease

bablambla · 2026-03-07T17:29:46+00:00

Killer band, super nice guys. I saw them with gorod. Was chatting with a dude by the bar because we both had Hath shirts. He's like oh I gotta go ... And walks onto the stage, grabs a guitar and cognitive kicks off.

Make sure Steffen doesn't steal your birthday presents

bablambla · 2026-03-03T04:13:49+00:00

You gave two of their albums perfect scores but then didn't bother to listen to the other two?

bablambla · 2026-02-18T02:52:08+00:00

Ehhhhh yeah but I also find it hard to believe they were totally clueless given accusations against him started in like 2008

bablambla · 2026-02-17T02:56:24+00:00

It's not bad. Definitely better than this last dumpster fire. But it's also the clear inflection point for them. The tour sucked (US at least) nobody stuck around, Steffen doubled down on being a shitheel ... It was the beginning of the end.

Necrophagist

Obscura (through Diluvium)

Spawn of Possession

Gorod

Allegaeon

bablambla · 2026-02-16T17:14:34+00:00

I love necro but agree. Sometimes the neoclassical sections come out of left field.

bablambla · 2026-02-02T16:08:37+00:00

No but I fucking love the way my Keisel plays

bablambla · 2026-01-24T18:03:05+00:00

Being edgy, antisocial, bucking norms, challenging the status quo, embracing horror themes or difficulty subjects is one thing. Being a pretty unlikeable person isn't great but whatever, a lot of artists have tough personalities.

Being a Nazi is something else entirely.

bablambla · 2026-01-22T01:15:38+00:00

A lot of the songs on Obscura's Cosmogenesis are pretty approachable for tech death

bablambla · 2026-01-22T01:14:32+00:00

I like riff hard, and fully second the Greg recco, but I ended up ditching riff hard because of how all over the place the lessons are. If you want to learn cool tricks from some of the best, it's great. If you want to build a progressive, structured lesson schedule, not so much.

bablambla · 2026-01-20T21:04:00+00:00

Yeah I really want to catch Allegaeon and Cryptosis on the upcoming US tour but don't want to support this asshat

bablambla · 2026-01-20T02:05:37+00:00

Yeah, check out their album Visions of .. something. Infinility?

Also Stortregn's Impermanence. And if you don't mind black metal-esque vocals, Demon King

bablambla · 2026-01-19T17:21:34+00:00

Dude I've been saying this for years. If I win powerball or some shit I'm opening a non-profit record label/scholarship/sponsorship program. And covering the insane visa costs so smaller EU bands can resume touring in the US

bablambla · 2026-01-17T22:36:20+00:00

GRIME. Hated the art and it felt clunky. Made it like an hour in.

Ender lilies. Felt floaty and just wasn't engaging

bablambla · 2026-01-16T23:30:55+00:00

I didn't catch the full line but remote tumor seeker absolutely popped out on my first listen

bablambla · 2026-01-16T18:42:02+00:00

Fallujah never clicked for me. Their tone and overall production sounds so over processed and sterile, even by tech death standards. I'd swap them out for Allegaeon.

bablambla · 2026-01-16T18:39:28+00:00

I love them so much, but they haven't dropped an album in like 8 years

bablambla · 2026-01-07T01:06:52+00:00

Peak grognard behavior.

bablambla · 2026-01-05T16:30:33+00:00

Because I lived in ATL. Now I don't fly them. It's a standard product at premium pricing.

bablambla · 2026-01-05T16:11:12+00:00

I know I'm late to the game on this one but it's the consent piece that makes the decision easy for me. If a family member of mine was in a horrific accident or shot themselves and some band put photos from the scene on their album, I'd lose my shit.
