I guess I should have specified the "Week 1" thread. Anyhoo...

Year: 2009
Nation: UK

What is it?
A bunch of pretty straight forward of fairly minimalist power metal (as far as power metal goes, anyway). There's not any pseudo operatic pretensions or wild neoclassical wankery here. Just some pretty basic riffs and driving rhythms topped with some fairly straight forward vocal melodies.
And then an argument from me that this isn't anything like power metal.

Sturm und drang! Spheres is way ****ing cool too, with possibly Pestilence's best, gnarliest, most off-the-wall riffs, not to mention some fascinatingly cool, often subtle weirdness. Good thing Martin Van Drunen left the band to go form Asphyx, cause we got two ****ing awesome bands out of it.

later Pestilence > early Pestilence

Holy spit this just might be a new top 10 or even top 5 death metal record. WTF was wrong with dunderheaded DM heads in 1993 who didn't buy this album like they were polybagged, 1st issue, variant cover comic books with foil covers and trading cards?

Alright, **** it, everything Pestilence does is amazing (except probably those reunion albums) so Imma stop making declarations until I've given them the proper multi-day marathon that I never did before. And then I'll beef up on my Asphyx knowledge.

But seriously I'm spamming at this point but this **** is basically a precursor to Obscura five years earlier.

Cannibal Corpse can be insanely good sometimes.

Bruhs, I always knew at least ONE slam death metal band would emerge that would be absolutely ****ing brutal and not ****ty, and Katalepsy are definitely one of the most sick DM bands I've ever heard.

It achieves atmosphere, not through keyboard orchestras, but by the grotesque performances by the vocals, the riffs, and the sheer onslaught of just how ****ing heavy it is. Actual real production helps tbh.

Kataklysm with Sylvain Houde were so great, after that I can take them or leave them, but the first few when he was their vocalist is some great Death Metal.

Kolossus is a fantastic record. No clue why it's not in the all-time pantheon for most metal heads but a finer blend of black/progressive/symphonic metal you'll be hard-pressed to find.
