Defeated Sanity appreciation

Acatalepsy · 09-10-2010, 03:52 AM

Immense band.

josh pelican · 09-10-2010, 11:22 AM

Yes, yes, and more yes! Dude, you have an awesome taste in music.

Defeated Sanity ....ing rule. I haven't listened to all of "Chapters of Repugnance" yet, so I'll have to do that as soon as I get home from work. "Psalms of the Moribund" was ....ing solid.

"[...] but on the album we used a zoom tri-metal distortion pedal + boss compressor and noise gate with the marshall jcm 2000."

Pretty ....ing heavy for what they used!

NovaReaper · 09-10-2010, 11:30 AM

Chapters is the best album of 2010.

It's astonishing how many people don't realize just how much music theory this band puts into their music, and just think OMG BRUTALZ LOL. And even the people who do, think they're jazz based. If you listen closely, they're using 12 tone technique in almost every song. Even the most tonal song on the album (Engulfed in Excruciation) uses tone row riffs during the first breakdown.

The atmosphere created by such technical mastery is truly hellish. When you listen to this album, listen for riffs with notes in groups of 12 or more. None of those notes will repeat until all 12 chromatic pitches have been sounded. I view this album as a masterful interpretation of Schonberg's 12 tone technique, rather than just another brutal death metal album. Truly inspiring band.

YES

These guys are pure mastery, every brutal death metal lover needs to hear this band. I've blasted the hell out of Psalms and I'm keen on getting Chapters of Repugnance, the production sounds ....ing monolithic.

DEM SLAMS.

Interesting, I wasn't aware of that.

Edit: I just heard Wolfgang passed away

NovaReaper · 09-12-2010, 09:55 AM

Yeah just heard he passed away too, RIP =\

Eptaceros · 09-12-2010, 12:46 PM

Defeated Sanity is the best brutal death metal band around.

TXDeathMetal · 09-12-2010, 01:14 PM

I'm TXDeathmetal and I approve of this thread.

Good to see some other people on here dig some brutal stuff!

This band is pretty crazy, I enjoyed chapters

That's pretty interesting actually. I had never listened to them/analyzed them that way...

NaYoN · 09-12-2010, 07:41 PM

It's pretty hard to hear individual notes though, so isn't that effort a bit wasted? All I hear is usually chug chug chug.

Eptaceros · 09-12-2010, 08:12 PM

Yeah, the production is pretty dense, so it takes a lot of listening to do. It's so worth it, though. The riffs and transitions are just absolutely mind bottling.

Chickenhawk · 09-12-2010, 09:15 PM

EDIT:

900th post.

And yes, Chapters kicked ass, but Fleshgod Apocalypse's Mafia is the best album of 2010.

What? It's 3 songs of lesser quality than their debut was. Only redeeming part was their cover of Blinded by Fear.

Not to mention the weak clean vocals.

[/opinion]

Unknown Doodl3.2 · 09-12-2010, 10:08 PM

Chapters definitely shits all over Mafia IMO

Your opinion is wrong.

As is yours.

I'm just kidding. Don't -rep the shit out of me

NaYoN · 09-13-2010, 12:25 AM

Mafia was really awesome, in my opinion. But it's just an EP so I wouldn't count it the best album of 2010.

Bruiser · 09-13-2010, 01:40 AM

I'm not normally into brutal death, but this band is gnarly. I might look around for an album or something.

A good pair of headphones and some practice should remedy that, no problem. I know what you mean though, I remember thinking wtf the first time I heard Psalms...
