revi Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 @Revi: Pare, astig ang Nile. They're an American death metal band whose music is heavily influenced by ancient Egyptian themes. I have two of their albums, "Black Seeds of Vengeance" and "In Their Darkened Shrines" and both are excellent. Their music is characterized by hyperspeed blastbeat drums which are complemented by equally fast, heavy-handed riffing and are further accentuated by the searing solos of their main songwriter Karl Sanders. When I was playing one of my Nile cds at the office, nagulat yung ka-office ko when she noticed that the music shifted from undiscernable (to her) death metal from one track to music that seemed to be background music from The Ten Commandments on the next track. Nile's new album, "Annihilation of the Wicked" has less Egyptian elements in the music but still retains it in their lyrical themes. GNR ba? Jan din ako nag-start. Pareho pala tayo ng generation, Revi e. Lamang ka lang ng 2 years but we basically listened to the same bands growing up. Dehins ko nga lang pinakinggan yung Godsmack and Drowning Pool kasi sa underground metal pinapakinggan ko from 2000 and onwards. np: Hey Man Nice Shot - FILTER<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ei thanks.. Immortal.. Bibili na ako ng albums ng Nile ngayon.. Kakasawa na din kasi yung topic on religion and death eh.. Kaya ko natanong ang Nile.. kasi I was very intrigued on the name.. parang influenced sila ng themes like.. "Curse of the Pharoahs" ng Mercyful Fate or for more commercialized fans.."Creeping Death" of Metallica.. plus the reviews are really good.. Brutal, pare.. Thanks again.. We are of the same age group pala ano? But you know.. what's my fave band of all-time.. its Black Sabbath (the Ozzy led years).. A friend introduced me to them when I was in college and I was blown away.. Sabi ko.. ang luluma ng mga kanta kaso maririnig mo mga riffs na ito nowadays.. Black Sabbath was ahead of their time.. I also listen to Immortal pala.. Not heavily, but I have yung album na nasa avatar mo.. (Pure Holocaust).. Thanks again pare.. Quote Link to comment
spishoxxx Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 I started out with GNR. Hehehehe. Pero I must admit, from there naging aware ako sa 'ROCK AGE' and thus begins my life-long flirt with music. Yung metal experience ko started when I got my hands on (not in order of succession btw) a few Metallica albums, Sepultura, Megadeth, Slayer, White Zombie, Pantera, Pungent Stench, Yngwie Malmsteen, Rush...They're the names I remember when asked of metal preferences 'noon'. Now, my daily staple diet in the Metal Division consists of: Dream Theater, Symphony X, Yngwie Malmsteen (yup, up to now hehehe), Rusty Cooley, Joe Stump, Liquid Tension Experiment, and other more-on-technicality bands. Me and my high school buds still play tunes from Pantera and Sepultura whenever we get together in a rehearsal studio. But we mainly play Dream Theater nowadays and some laid-back tunes like Eric Johnson bluesy-type of songs. Tumatanda na kasi..lumalambot na <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Naaalala ko tuloy nung elementary ako, may daladalang walkman at sang katerbang tapes....tapos kukumpiskahin ng teacher... :grr: hindi pa binalik yung justice for all na tape ko pati yung vulagar display of power... :grr: Quote Link to comment

He he, walkman, discman, cassettes, cds. Ganyan din ako dati. Ako nga pati, Hit Parader magazine nakumiska rin ng teacher ko. Pero binalik naman. Baka di niya trip yung GNR na cover nung Hit Parader.

Immortal666 Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 Revi: Kung sawa ka na sa typical na death metal band, pakinggan mo yung Opeth (kung di mo pa sila narinig). Ayos yun. Prog-folk-death ang tugtugan. Hayup yung interplay ng acoustic guitars and mellow vocals sa kaskasan at death growls. Kung di mo pa sila narinig, sabihin mo lang para may ma-rekomeda akong album nila sa yo. Quote Link to comment

Sure, give me some reco's on Opeth's albums.. I will be going to my local pirated shop next week.. to buy some CD's.. Thanks, man.. Nakakatuwa.. magkaka-age group yata tayo dito eh.. I have issue #3 of Metal Maniacs.. 1990 yata.. Naalala ko pa na tuwing uwian dadaan ako ng book sale at maghahalungkat ako ng Metal mags.. (Circus, Hit Parader) Php25.00 lang naman eh.. di mahal.. tapos tapes.. punta pa ako ng Recto para maka-score ng tapes ng bands like: Sepultura, Deathwish, Bulldozer, etc. - mga piarata.. Pati shirts.. e.g., Slayer, Metallica.. Good to look back.. :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment
Immortal666 Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 Oo, mga 1990 nga umusbong ng todo ang metal dito sa Pinas. Nag-flood talaga sa market yung metal na cassette tapes and cds noon. Sumasadya pa ako sa Recto galing dito sa Antipolo para bumili ng locally unreleased na metal albums and t-shirts. Di biro yun nuong early '90s a. Wala pang LRT2 noon! Revi: Heto recommendations ko sa Opeth (at rating on a scale of 10), bilhin mo lahat pero mag-umpisa sa first album nila. Medyo naging stale na kc Opeth lately kasi di na sila kasing fresh and adventurous-sounding tulad ng dati. 1) Orchid (1994) - 10/102) Morningrise (1996) - 10/103) My Arms, Your Hearse (1998) - 8/104) Still Life (1999) - 8/105) Blackwater Park (2001) - 9/106) Deliverance (2003) - 9/107) Damnation (2003) - 9/108) Lamentations (DVD) (2004) - 8/10 9) Ghost Reveries (2005) - 7/10 Quote Link to comment
sickness Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Meronng dvd ng Opeth sa Quiapo. Quote Link to comment

dixiewhiskey Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 astig yung era ng early 90's nung lahat halos ng cassettes na deathmetal/grind etc. rinlease dito. sa sobrang dami ng releases nun e di mo makukumpleto lahat. wala pa cd warehouse, tower at mail order... natututo palang ako uminom nun, magpunta sa strip bars (underage hehe) at magpunta sa underground shows at sa recto din hehe. at that point i was just listening to thrash, speed, hardcore and punk, tas biglang eto andaming bagong metal stuf. very formative years pa nun pti yung mga underground metalheads. nothing but good times. para dun sa stuck sa metallica at ayaw makinig ng mas magaling na metal bands, it's your loss. anlayo na ng metal ngayon kumpara sa era ng '91 black album mo, man. it's up to you if you'd limit yourself and shun great music, you don't know what yer missin, man. para dun sa mga dating metal, anytime puede mo balikan man. you can listen to metal and also listen to other music that you dig, and you can't really compare... you'll always come back Quote Link to comment
revi Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Immortal: Dre, was able to listen to some stuff from Opeth.. most specifically the Deliverance album.. Got surprised na epics ang mga songs nila.. galing ng blending.. I am now planning to buy all of their albums.. Thanks, man.. To all buyers of pirated metal cd's..

Got surprised na epics ang mga songs nila.. galing ng blending.. I am now planning to buy all of their albums.. Thanks, man.. ah oo, di ko pala nabanggit na on average mga 8 minutes ang mga kanta nila. dun sa morningrise album nila, may song sila na 20 minutes!!! magaling talaga ang opeth. after they lull you into a dream-like trance with their mellow acoustic guitars - BAM! pasok ang mabigat na riffs at death growls. patay na patay ako sa bandang yan mga 3-4 years ago. medjo nagsawa na ako sa kanila pero it's good to listen to them once in awhile. no prob, revi! it's my pleasure to recommend great music to others.

Serial Killer Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Rumors continue to circulate that METALLICA have finally ended their working relationship with producer Bob Rock and are in talks with Rick Rubin (SYSTEM OF A DOWN, SLIPKNOT, SLAYER, AUDIOSLAVE, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS) about producing the group's next effort, the follow-up to the much-maligned "St. Anger". It was as far back as last October that the first rumblings of a METALLICA/Rubin collaboration reached BLABBERMOUTH.NET, and the rumors have been gaining strength ever since. Adding fuel to these reports is the fact that Rock is scheduled to spend a good portion of 2006 working on the new CD from MÖTLEY CRÜE, which is expected to surface sometime next year. In a September 2005 interview with the METALLICA fan club magazine So What!, METALLICA drummer Lars Ulrich was asked point-blank if Bob Rock's name had been discused for the group's next album. "I would say that Bob Rock will always be our producer," Ulrich replied. "You know it's almost like default. It's not whether he should produce, it's more whether he shouldn't produce it. So I would expect Bob Rock to produce it unless he's not interested." In the same interview, Ulrich spoke highly of the most recent albums by SLIPKNOT and SYSTEM OF A DOWN — both of which were produced by Rubin — citing them as particularly inspiring in terms of making him "look forward to paying a little more attention to the sonics" next time around. METALLICA officially began the songwriting process for their new album late last year and are expected to spend the next few months compiling ideas before entering the final recording stage. A late 2006/early 2007 release via Warner Bros. is expected. Quote Link to comment
