Awesome live footage from Death's Human tour in '91. You can hear some stuff from Reinert you can't hear/discern from the album version.
Sean Reinert may be my favorite drummer ever. I have no experience with drumming, but his connection to the music looks almost instinctual at times. How else do you explain that drum fill at 2:36? Last edited by Wpnfire; 08-24-2016 at 11:04 PM. |

Dude, to me, aside from the math ****, this sounds like the first time a hardcore band was playing metal, rather than a hardcore band playing metal influenced hardcore.* This was definitely a turning point in the history of 90s metalcore.
Integrity and Ringworm and Merauder and **** started the ball. Earth Crisis and Unbroken took it to the next level with better versions of Pantera riffs. And that **** was heavy as ****. But it's with **** like this, that was a major influence in mathcore (released in 1995) that the weirder, post-hardcore take on metalcore began, pretty much right at this album maybe. And pretty soon you had Converge and Botch and DEP and etc al. And yet no band would ever truly sound like this. This ****in epic weird badass ****ing thing. Holy **** is this ridiculously badass. *In relation to metalcore specifically

This is some ****ing kickass death thrash. It's nothing brilliant, and it's about what you'd expect from an extreme thrash band around 1988, but the execution is still pretty awesome. The intro to the album is a guitar feedback noise track, and it actually sounds good, and not just what dunderheaded 80s metal dudes would think sounded noisy. Too bad I can't find it on Youtube.
It's not gonna replace Demolition Hammer anytime soon, but when I'm in the mood this would be good for a switch up. But holy ****, the way the breakdown in the middle explodes right into a straight blast beat is ****ing cool as ****. Edit: and I just realized that this band is basically a hardcore band playing death metal. That's why they're so immediate. It's almost like crossover death metal. I'm loving these dudes more and more as I listen to this ****ing album.

Who else is gonna be ready for death thrash when I get the Metal Album Survivor thread back up and finally get around to that? I'd like to think this forum had some knowledge of old school extreme thrash.
