The Dead Walk and Continent are great, Wormwood not so much.

No offense man, but there isn't much to understand about Wormwood. I've listened to ObZen probably twice for each time I've listened to Wormwood, and if anything, Wormwood sounds like Nothing. Other than a couple of random droning notes, I wouldn't compare the two albums or bands.

jordanky · 11-29-2011, 05:49 PM

I love TAS. Continent is my favorite by far.

Ericbrujo · 11-29-2011, 06:58 PM

Continent <3

orakle · 11-29-2011, 06:59 PM

big wormwood fan here, just give the album a few listens \m/

Fionn · 11-29-2011, 07:15 PM

wormwood +1

JPMike · 11-29-2011, 08:08 PM

3750, for me.

Will never forget how heavy "Carbomb" was to my ears back then.

metal_sam14 · 11-29-2011, 08:37 PM

The Reverend · 11-29-2011, 08:39 PM

3750 and The Dead Walk.

If only I'd known how big of an influence TAS would have on deathcore, I could've copied Smoke Ya Later myself and gotten as big as Emmure.

cwhitey2 · 11-29-2011, 08:45 PM

3750 and The Dead Walk = Pure WIN

kevdes93 · 11-29-2011, 08:58 PM

im my humble opinion, wormwood was mediocre. everything else was ....in heavy as shit and awesome. sun poison and skin cancer is to date one of my favorite songs of all time. continent is awesome as well. balboa towers is such an awesome song

codync · 11-29-2011, 09:58 PM

BOWWWWWWWWW

noob_pwn · 11-29-2011, 10:03 PM

continent for me, but I seriously froth every album they've put out

BIG ND SWEATY · 11-29-2011, 10:32 PM

either continent or wormwood for me. I love the acacia strain

they put on a hell of a live show too

Floppystrings · 11-29-2011, 10:43 PM

I only listen to 3570 and The Dead Walk.

The new stuff sound so instantly monotone vocally compared to the old stuff. It sounds like he doesn't even care anymore live, sloppy.

This is the old Acacia Strain:

I like 3750, continent, and wormwood. The dead walk is bland to me, but I guess I need a couple more listens.

blr5109 · 11-29-2011, 11:32 PM

Its hard for me to decide between Continent and Wormwood....I think Continent is their best work but Wormwood takes you to another world. By far their darkest album both lyrically and musically.

jordanky · 11-30-2011, 12:47 AM

To add, I think the biggest plus (for me) about Continent is the actual production quality. Everything sounds huge and powerfully tonally without overdoing it. I also think that Vincent Bennett sounds a little different at times on that record and I really missed hearing it on Wormwood, but honestly I'm not a huge fan of that one.

ByDesign · 11-30-2011, 01:08 AM

The Dead Walk is the best in so many ways... everything went downhill after that album

shreddanson · 11-30-2011, 06:22 AM

I'm not a huge fan of the style these guys play but it's retardedly heavy as ...., and I can respect that

c4tze · 11-30-2011, 07:12 AM

i like the first one most, cant stand the other stuff. maybe its too "modern" or too "core" for my taste. i love that thrashy attitude in their songs, but as most dont know, thrashy doesnt come with un-tight.

Gothberg · 11-30-2011, 08:42 AM

WORMWOOD

groph · 11-30-2011, 12:58 PM

The Dead Walk is my album of choice. Continent struck me as a bit too clean sounding, the guitar tone just isn't as good but I haven't really listened to it enough to really get to know it. Wormwood never rubbed off on me. I ....ing loved the version of Terminated on the EP but the version on Wormwood was spoiled by them trying to make the song more percussive.

The band gets a ton of flak, even if they aren't Emmure and I can definitely see why but I still enjoy The Dead Walk, as "lamecore" as it is. Fun stuff, pissed off and heavy. I have an Acacia Strain shirt with a bunch of people locked up inside a burning church. It's my rebellious shirt.
