They were technical and played good, but sooo boooring to watch. And what sucked the most, is that all growls were pre-recorded. The frontman sang only the clean parts.I love admins!

Being that I have devoted my fuggin' life to metal. I have listened with unbiased ears and open mind and found that highest caliber of muscianship is not exclusive to power/prog bands. Many of those fans are unaware and don't acknowledge that this is equal across the entrire metal spectrum.
Whenever you say the word Rush or Dream Theater one instantly thinks prog metal and they're correct...but it goes far beyonds bands in the same genre as Symphony X , Pagans Mind, Lanfear, Threshold, Time requiem, Majestic, Space Oddessy, Circus Maximus, Vanden Plas and many of similar styles...Watchtower!!
There is the same calibre musciansip in other styles of music that most don't consider as equals. I think it's a shame, therfore I'm adressing it. I see it as you loss , my freinds, but it doesn't have to be.
I have a insane Prog Power friend that some here know ..his name is "Krusty"..he loves his "Prog" and he's a great prog drummer. Not long ago he loathed any kind of "harsh" vocals no matter what. I do to in the wrong context, it's just fuggin' grating. But bands like Cynic who made this style accessible. Some may not be sold on this vid , which is a mere glimpse..just like any other unfamilar "good" band, you must hear more to know what they're about.
Krusty's first progressive "death" band he embraced was Into Eternity..prolly because there is a mix of both clean and harsh and the music is pretty challenging. Then he told me he bought the new Mercenary which he really liked..it's the ligher side of this style so I can see that...but it's a start. I broadened his mind, which is cool. Then he bought the new Martyr cd and loves it and almost in that same beathe told me that he is so disappointed in the new Kamelot, who he's opening for in a couple days. So he bought two cds in one day one of his faves that he was bummed about and a cd he wouldn't even gave a chance just a year ago. I owned and heard enough to distint good from crap..Then you have awesome..and "awesome" is rarely subjective especialy when applied to skill level and writing.
So any of you want to expand your progressive and love challenging music..let me share me faves with you.
I will touch on some ..NOT all.
Atheist..all 3 are re-issued, no need to drop $200 on Ebay.
Arsis..this is the music on HHB with the ballerinas in
harmony with that intense music.
Alarum..this is a Cynic lovers wet dream..
Augury..very cool tech prog death band
Capharnaum..on the same willowtip roster with Arsis.
Death..a kid that blossomed into a genius, his life cut short.
Coroner..they progressed until they broke up in '95.
Extol..awesome Christian progressive band...harsh vox.
Farmakon...Steve DiGiorgio is in it...there ya go.
Gory Blister..don't let the name fool you..these dagos throw down!
Lunaris..very nice!
Martyr...wow!
Necrophagist..It'll make your head spin like Linda Blair.
Nocturnus..start with .."The Key"!!!
Sadist.."Beyond the light"
Sadus..Steve DiGiorgio always seems to show with stuff like this.
Sceptic..any fan of Coroner should love these guys..
Symbyosis..my very FAVE all that is tech prog death metal!!!
Theory in Practice..the name speaks for itself..insane stuff!
Thought Chamber..cool stuff...DiGiorgio is that U?
Twisted Into Form..members of Extol and Spiral Archtect..'nuff said.
Wastefall..start w/"self exile", like a mix of Opeth and Nevermore.
Just a few years ago I was told that Arch Enemy completely sucks balls by SO many (harsh vox), those same people fucking LOVE that band, including my wife!
So, it doesn't hurt to kick shit around and try new shit..once that door in opened you'll be even more accepting to even more "extreme" music..because of the skill levels.. trust me..I been there, and many of my friends
I don't expect everyone to be blown away at first listen..in fact I expect what I already know and heard so many times before.."That fucking band sucks!!"..and in a few years you'll be playing that shit..or wanting to!
This almost needs it's own thread...hmmm. we;ll see where this goes first.
