I think the reason for lack of death metal reviews is a lack of good death metal... only DM album I've liked this year is Decapitated's... the Sceptic album was decent but not great...

So far the only review I've thought was actually bad on this site was the one for Eyes of Fire, but I only read the ones which sound interesting to me, which is like 2-3 a week

Well, then we already have two you could review so it would be like...
New Decapitated
New Sceptic
and also add in
New Cannibal Corpse (it needs to be reviewed this album kicks ass my favorite cannibal corpse album)
New Kalmah
New Haemorrhage (damn this cd kicks ass)
New Zyklon
New Psycroptic
New Krisiun and maybe the new Benighted
and then just wait Death Metal up to know (in 2006) hasnt been that great but we still have to wait for..
New Spawn of Possession, Martyr, Misery Index, Arsis, Vader (full lenght) and much more.. I think this will be a good year for death metal..

Thanks to both of you guys then.

you're welcome

more soon ! 8)

You forgot he's not interested, only if I give it a metallish label. Sólstafir actually describe themselves as hardcore, with a reason. If I would have labeled it that, the poor guy would have overlooked it like my other reviewed albums. I needed to start lightly on the readers here, for them to remain insterested, that's why I mislabeled some bands' genres.

Pretty lame that you have to do that, huh? You could spend hours writing a review on a great CD and then someone will come and just undermine all that you wrote by implying that something sucks based on the genre not the music! Ridiculous.

I suggest you accurately label everything you review from now on, fuck what anyone thinks, especially when it's wrong.

Looks like the wolves are out today. And to think that I defended both of you earlier? Solstafir is not hardcore.

indeed they're not
does Misha knows anything about hardcore ? :roll:
but they have core elements, there's no denying it either... that and post rock/sludge elements that were better left unsaid...
I'm sorry Ken but I still think you label an album you review based on the people who are suposed to read the review... call it what you wish, I call it giving (good) music a chance. 8)

Well, they do claim to be hardcore themselves, as Desolate pointed out to me (after I wrote the review but that is not relevant). It seemed a little weird to me as well, but if I would have mentioned "hardcore influence" in the genre definition, emperorblackdoom would not have had any interest in the album. Eyesore, I'm not going to twist the genres anymore, but I just needed some marketing. You made me see I shouldn't care about that anyways, but you know by threathening with Tango, people do get interested.

Death metal along with thrash takes up most of my listening time, it rules. Review the new Cannibal Corpse children, it's brilliant.

Death metal is currently my favorite style then Black metal and then
thrash..

.:crast:.

Haven't heard Detonation, but Decapitated, Kataklysm, and Zyklon have all dissapointed/bored me with their recent output. 4 or 5 years ago I would have agreed though.

I consider them solid deathmetal releases, but each to his own.

Detonation play very melodic deathmetal, without being In Flames...

Anyway, new Anata should at least be interesting. New Insision on the way too, for those of you who like you death a bit more brutal.

.:crast:.

(ps: not to forget, new Canopy coming too

)

I thought the new Kataklysm and Decapitated were at least decent.
