Controversial Metal Opinions

[open face surgery]

Gateways drum sounds renders the whole thing unlistenable for me.

I like Suffocation up to the self titled then lost interest.

Suffocation are one of those bands if a random song crops up on a playlist I always like it alot but find it hard to keep interest through a whole album. I have no problem with relentless blasting with other bands

Yeah im a big fan up to 'Suffocation',not overly pushed after that.

Going back a few posts to Morbid Angel. Controversial I know but they're one death metal band I could never get into. Of all American death metal bands  it's incredible how overrated they are. I know it's very much a minority opinion but give me Death, Deicide, Obituary, Malevolent Creation or Massacre any day of the week.

I love all of those bands, with the exception of Massacre who I like, but I'd take MA over all of them without question.

The Deicide S/T is the greatest Death Metal album of all time bar none.

[Necro Red]

The Deicide S/T is the greatest Death Metal album of all time bar none.

The drumming is a bit shaky at times on it though. I do love the album, not sure if I'd call it the greatest now.

The Deicide S/T is the greatest Death Metal album of all time bar none.

Yeah agree

[Carnage]

I wouldn't say it Deicide's best, let alone the greatest death metal album of all time (that's Leprosy). I'd rank it third, after Serpents Of The Light and Once Upon The Cross.

[Pentagrimes]

The Deicide S/T is the greatest Death Metal album of all time bar none.

It's a fantastic record. It's also - and this is the controversial opinion - the only one of theirs that's any good.

Legion > the self titled.

Re: Morbid Angel the only bad release is I which is a disgrace of an album. Only has one listenable song Nevermore. I always enjoyed Heretic as it happens bought it from Sentinel last week and it showed up today. Gateways, Formulas and the last album are also great. I was one of the people who didn't give the Tucker era a chance for years until Formulas finally sunk in.

For some reason I have never been a massive fan of Blessed just too many slow - mid paced tracks for my liking.

I'd have to say I prefer Legion and Once Upon The Cross.  Cause Of Death trumps them all though.

[Carnage]

I found Legion disappointing from the get-go. It's just dull.

Legion is a masterpiece.
