extreme metal covers many sub genres so technically you're wrong oldakustikblues...but whatever the amenta are amazing, have an awesome way of changing tempos within the song so there is variety with fast blast beats as opposed to a whole album full of the same boring blasts...i love all the songs on ocassus
this is not extreme metal fuck the ignorant. Extreme metal is a subgenre that came out from progressive cliches and changes from acoustic/light to electric/heavy elemets just like opeth and textures, The Amenta is industrial death metal....got it Rhademanthus?
"Extreme metal is an umbrella term, somewhat loosely defined, for a variety of heavy metal subgenres developed since the 1980s. Though the term does not refer to any specific style or sound, it most commonly refers to music which either is a member of, or incorporates elements of, genres such as death metal, black metal, thrash metal or doom metal."

So you are the fucking ignorant.
The Amenta is industrial death metal AND, extreme metal.
well chlordane himself said that the amenta is no specific genre because, the second you pigeon-hole yourself into one specific genre, you become confined into making your music only within those constraints. he said that as far the amenta are concerned they are simply extreme metal because the they have all the room they need to create exactly the sound they want.
i mean, who else who only describes themselves as death or black metal has mixed elements of death, industrial and noise? that's what makes the amenta so unique. so maybe the amenta are extreme metal in the one way such a loose term should be meant; if mroe bands only saw themselves as extreme maybe they'd be far more open-minded and create far more diverse music, rather than a hundred death metal bands blasting the same hyper-fast beats and never making anything new.
Extreme metal is just a way of saying 'Black/Death Metal' without actually saying it's a crossover of the two. Extreme metal is not a genre of its own.
Dave Haley would have to be one of the world's best drummers ever. He kicked serious ass when Psycroptic and The Amenta opened for Behemoth... absolutely mad show.
This band sounds so weird, so I'm excited to see them live soon. I think they will bring shit down. Live sound is pretty damn radical.

Anyone ever thought that maybe it was a trigger misfiring problem, rather than double bass-related inconsistency?
