Once again despite seeming to sound heavy when you take away the blast beats they are just not heavy enough. Why is the bass always missing with these recent bands ? Bass is just as important in metal.

yeah, i agree about the bass, their bassist definately needs to stand out a bit more. i go moreso for the technicality and overall agressiveness of the band than just heaviness though.

This is kinda similar. See what you think:

Have you ever checked out Fear Factory?

Antonio · 06-07-2009, 02:44 PM

nice, loving the beat and how the guitars are working with each other

i haven't listened to much Fear Factory, what's some good songs/albums by them?

jackhammer · 06-07-2009, 02:45 PM

Try Digimortal and Demanufacture. It's the guitar and double bass drum syncopation that I love.

Antonio · 06-07-2009, 02:50 PM

hmmm,ok i see what you mean

but yeah, if you do consider checking out the Red Chord, i say go for their latest album, Prey For Eyes. a good dose of heaviness, and their skills/music has gotten a bit more refined

I am sure a few others on here dig them though. I only sort of dip in and out of the metal scene these days. I served my apprenticiship 20 years ago so I am not always the best person to ask regarding new metal.
