One album a week sounds cool. Need to discover more DM to be fair because it was a genre I hardly brushed up on when I got into metal. Will you be reccing the classics to begin with or will this be more obscure DM that nobody's heard?

You know what, **** it. If we come up with a better way in time then that's fantastic, but for right the **** now let's just get it rolling with any album. I just downloaded this cause it sounded interesting and different so I'm throwing it down right now in hopes that it's not terrible, but it doesn't sound terrible atm. Next Tuesday we'll pick something else, but until then it's...


Traumatic Voyage - Traumatic (1992)




I'm not going to keep this to Spotify or Youtube friendly **** if I can help it cause **** that, but I'll make sure that if an album is not on Spotify or Youtube that I'll find a link my damn self for you all. But we are not going to limit this thread to bands that are only easily findable. It's ****ing death metal. But here's a Youtube link since they're not on Spotify that I can see.

Sounds fine just so long as it doesn't turn into a cluster****.

We'll figure that out, but for now let's just do the thing that I just did.

Oh and I'll be keeping the current album in the OP.

I don't like death metal all that much either, so I guess that means I'm joining.

The interesting thing about letting DM noobs like me pick an album once in a while would be that we can then see if we have any idea about what's good or not. Imagine me or Trollheart trying our hardest to pick something amazing in this genre.

Anyway, whatever works, I'm going along with it anyway.

So does anyone want a... *sigh* member list? And everyone just recs an album when their turn comes up? Or should we do this by vote like Frownland suggested?

Aren't there waves or something, like Black Metal? Why not do one from each wave first, if such a thing exists? I dunno: I know so little about Death Metal, I'm really not the guy to ask. I would have said go to Metal Archives, hit Death Metal and close your eyes for a random pick.

Except me, of course.

You know that it's not really an album club unless you have a confusing set of convoluted rules, at least half of which are regularly questioned and challenged by one or more members. Two hissy fits or meltdowns a week is essential, and you should really have a ****storm once a month minimum.

If not, you're just playing around at having a club.

Voting would lead to albums that are well known by some in here being picked often, probably. So it depends whether you want to hear more unknown material, or most stuff that is already sort of vouched for.

I say you do the choosing, as it's your club. You could take recs from people, I guess. I know I'd have a hard time if I was asked. Death Metal? You mean like, you know, Iron Maiden or Judas Priest?

**** it, I'm happy with whatever. The only reason I wanted member submitted albums was so that I could make everybody listen to A Perfect Absolution by Gorod, but I'm not even sure it fully qualifies as death metal.

I vote in favor of whatever most other members want.
