Bands with Appalling Back Catalogues

[Paul keohane]

With Cryptopsy it's more of a fall from grace but their classics are undeniable.

In similar boat for me would be Decapitated. The direction up to the third album was amazing - can't listen to the brodude stuff they put out now

Yeah couldt agree more, I loved the first 2/3 albums, what came after was unlistenable.

[open face surgery]

First 2 are classics, next 2 are great but a different buzz.

[Mithrandir]

Fuck I hated Whisper Supremacy and Then You'll Beg, they were somehow the first 2 I heard and I wrote off Cryptopsy for years. Then heard None so vile one day and it blew my tits off. First 2 are bangers.

[Carnage]

Cryptopsy have always been shite, perfect band for this. That bingy bongy bass can eternally fuck off.

[Sworntothecans]

Cryptopsy have always been shite, perfect band for this. That bingy bongy bass can eternally fuck of.

Aye. Never saw the hype at all.

Remember one of the lads going on about how good the lyrics were.
What's the fuckin' point. Yer man lord worm is just gonna butcher the fuck out of them.

[Eoin McLove]

His delivery is gas, especially on Blackening Made Flesh. Just ludicrous. I haven't listened to it in years but I liked it when I was a young lad.

[Paul keohane]

Im definitely not a diehard  Cryptopsy fan by any means, dip in and out.

The two times I caught them live (both 2006) they were pretty lethal!

[open face surgery]

Rarely listen to them these days but they were a staple when I was getting into death metal, especially NSV. Thought the gig here in 06 was shite but saw them in 09 or 10 with the new fella and it was great.

[Pagan Saviour]

The gig in 2006 was bad alright there was a zillion bands on the bill and most of them were crap. Dew Scented that type of thing. Grave were on the bill and they are a band that slot into the topic nicely here - tonnes of utterly bland albums.


Don't know what it was about Cryptopsy I was so looking forward to it but they just gave me a headache

[Bürggermeister]

Was it Gorerotted in 06? Truly awful gig, they could go on the list too, actually.

[Squigs]

They played twice in 2006, once in Feb, once in August. Grave, Aborted, Vesania, Dew Scented, a few others. Huge bill for midweek.

[Squigs]

That was the Feb show, I wasn't at the Augsut one.

[The Great Cull]

They did entertain while introducing Masticated By The Spasticated 

[Paul keohane]

Ah Gorerotted were great craic live back then!

[The Great Cull]

Who are the Swedish lads, playing the same song about war again and again and again? Mystifyingly popular.

Sabaton I'm guessing? Their Carolus Rex album is a great slab of power metal, but they've essentially made the same album 10 or 11 times with diminishing returns every time, they put on a great live show though

That's them.

The only time I'd like to see these cunts play there would have been on actual D-Day in the hopes they'd be taken out.
