well i cant call this death.. id rather say its a more progressive version of thrash.. those new death metal bands are TRASH compared to this.. this song, this album is really epic although death is not my favorite band
I don't understand why people get so prissy whenever someone dislikes Death. People have opinions, and everyone sees merit in music for different reasons. Just as everyone will not agree on what the best color is, everyone is going to disagree about the best type of music. You guys just look stupid when you post stuff like "Death is the best bands ever and anyone who disagrees is a fuckin' idiot. HAIL CHUCK!!!" Stop. Seriously, just stop. Death is great, but not everyone will see it that way.
Yeah, there is no reason to call someone an idiot over music preference. Some of the most interesting conversations I have had with people involve the explaining of why someone likes or dislikes a certain kind of music.
You cannot control what other people like and it makes you more of an idiot not being willing to accept that. You shouldn't judge someone because you disagree on something like music. Opinion has no right or wrong, just personal choice.
Best album by one of the best metal bands ever in my opinion. Amazing musicianship doesn't mean much to me without good songwriting. Death were just a totally stellar band in every way, especially when this came out and totally raised the bar for me. Made me realise just how lame lots of hugely more popular music really was. Ever grateful to Chuck Schuldiner for his gifts. He was a leader and an inspiration in guitar based music and an incomparable and truly irreplaceable artist. Sadly missed.
@Rodov1968 Totally agree. Shuldiner was great songwriter and with his skills he made many essential metal tracks full of melody and passion. It wasn't typical shred bullshit and bubbling, but beautiful music.
@ThrashingBlackDeath Fair enough, mine was cheap too. Still, he's a brilliant musician, but calling him a spiritual leader is deceiving yourself. And if you didn't mean it, and were just glorifying him... well, that makes you a poser.
@jb1563700 Actually, I think so, he is mine spiritual leader, every song of Death inspires and encourages me, music is brilliant, his voice is brilliant. I wouldn't glorify something that isn't worth it. So... that's it.
I've only just discovered Death (i wish i'd done it sooner), and i've gotta admit i've spent my entire evening listening to the whole of this album over and over this is possibly my favourite song of the album and probably one of the best metal songs ever. R.I.P Chuck thank you soo much for blowing my mind away and i wish i could've seen Death live.
never again will something like this will be played unless its a cheap imitation. when my homie steve showed me this shit i was like ok i could listen to metal if its raw like this...
@colorblindvids Chuck was not only an amazing guitarist, but also an amazing songwriter and an amazing lyricist but most of all he was an amazing person and thats what hurts most when you think about him dying so young :( one of the few truly genuine people in music.
@colorblindvids I couldn't agree more. Chuck was a genius in every sense of the word. For a guy who dropped out of high school at 16 to write about things that require an astounding knowledge of history, science, philosophy, and politics is nothing short of amazing.
one of my favorite death songs, and now that im buzzed, its even more exceleent. its hard as fuck to write this with half my right hand asleep. tbackspace, your a good friend :)
@UristMcgee lol heres at it goes first you listen to mainstream rock kiss etc then you go to nwobhm then you go to speed/thrash FOR A LONG TIME and in the middle of that time you listen to a couple death metal bands and be like fuck this shit this is screamo then then after the same time period goes away you will be like shit man i need something more brutal you listen to old school death and you will like HOLY SHIT THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME! then you just escalate from their haha
One of the Best Death Metal albums ever made.Full of Brutality and Melody. It Doesnt matter if you like death,black,thrash,heavy or ven pop music.If you listen to Death and dont like it,you are a pussy and/or retarded person.
the best death song ever,the best death album ever,the best death metal album and song ever,chuck show us how can death metal be very musicaly and clear,.my favorite death metal band ever..
@TheTurkinat0r27 66 + another 6 = 666. It's not the mathematical sense, more like just adding a 6 to the end. Of course I know 66 plus 6 doesn't actually equal 666, it equals 72...
This my favorite Death song, The song itself show an immense amount of creativity that Chuck has express with the guitar melodies layered with other guitars. The lyrics are very meaningful as well with the nice grooved drum patterns and bass. Overall this song is amazing.
@TheLordFenris Damn right. To be honest, I also prefer his vocals over any other musician. In any form of music period. But maybe im just biast. lol But, Once you heard death n chuck. It is hard to go back to anythign else, At least for me. Nothing else comes even close to death or chuck for me. As good as as many other bands are, They got fuck all on This phenomenal band.
@ChuckSchuldinerRIP0 I think he was just being silly. Do we seriously think that Chuck was actually a GOD literal terms? no. We just say that to explain how much of an Amazing Musician he was. His guitar skills, and His Lyrical Genius. In No Way do I think that 99% that call Chuck a "god" is serious.
Chuck we miss you so much...... I realize it each day when I heard the crap from radio in my warehouse..... Such a melody mixed with technical skills and power...
@ChuckSchuldinerRIP0 oops i accidently hit dislike, even though i wanted to like...i would love to heare musatine or hammet rip like chuck did, especially at the end of his career, they had already started living off their old riffs while chuck was makin riffs better than they ever could
