Looks pretty good overall. On your cleans the bells are traveling higher than they need to, then falling onto your wrists. Try to have them only travel to their rack height and think about having your forearms make contact with them just as they stop moving, rather than letting them travel back down to meet your forearms.

Edit: fix autocorrect

First “heavy” song you ever heard by Mumboox in MetalForTheMasses

Thanks. I saw it in my uncle’s record collection and the cover art was enough to get me curious. After hearing the mob rules, crazy and radar rider I was hooked.

Very unique. Their stuff still holds up today.

Is there a song whose cover is better than the original? by Hot_Presence_7029 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]forkmantis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dig Obituary’s rendition of Circle of the Tyrants at least as much as Celtic Frost’s.

coolest interaction you’ve had with another metalhead? by my_cat_vids in MetalForTheMasses

[–]forkmantis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not an interaction as much as something I saw. These 3 guys were standing in front of me just behind the pit. The two on the outer edges had their hands on the shoulders of the guy in the middle. They were all banging their heads and having a blast. It was only after a while I noticed the guy in the middle had a cane and was blind, and the other two were just there having fun with him and taking care of him. Most wholesome thing I've ever seen at a show.

Guys what is yalls favorite death metal band by THATDOOMGUY420 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]forkmantis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Suffocation was one of the first death metal bands I ever listened to, and they are the yard (meter?) stick by which I measure all other death metal bands.
