These guys are a bit controversial. But what about Graveland from Poland?

I tried to check out some Graveland. Can't say it appealed to me.

Years ago maybe no not anymore. Dethmetal is depressing, its an extreme version of metal that has mortality as a focus. Its a contradiction. If someone is so depressed to be into dethmetal, an extreme sound is a plea for help. The louder the bigger the cry for help. I've been at that limit. I realized how wrong it was to how I was feeling. Its like Black Sabbath songs about damnation, a plea for salvation. Suicide is never the answer. Once yer dead, there is no redo. Ya can't just say oops. Granted there are some really good songs with some really intense sound but you can get that from any music. Its all in your mindset. Not all death metal is depressing. Arch Enemy is a death metal band, "Arch Enemy is a Swedish melodic death metal band". Source = https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arch_Enemy They have songs like "Leader of the Rats", "The Eagle Flies Alone" and "The World is yours". Those songs are NOT depressing. Sure, leader of the rats is about judgmental leaders, but that is reality and the song is about being yourself, without compromise even if others do not like it. As for the other two songs, pay attention to the lyrics, they are anything but depressing. Nor do those three songs suggest suicide or anything along that nature. The latter of those two songs are quite uplifting and positive if you ask me. Lastly, the song "Enemy of the Truth" by Septicflesh is quite good too. Depressing if you consider that it reflects modern politics in the USA, perhaps around the world, but pay attention to the lyrics, you may be surprised about what messages it has in it. |

I have always been a fan of Black Metal and Death Metal. Being British, I gravitated to it. Was hoping to chat up those of you who love it as well. Bands I always listen to are: Deicide, Gorgoroth, Behemeth, God Destruction, Cannibal Corpse, Marduk, Watain, Abominator, Arkhon Infaustus, Goatwhore, Wolfpack 44, Vital Remains.By looking at the forums, it didn't seem like there was anyone else with the same music taste. Hopefully there are. That music is right up my alley. I have been listening to that kind of music for a very long time. Hit me up if you want to chat. Enjoy your day. |
