New Devourment Tracks[views:34040][posts:50]_________________________________ [Apr 4,2009 7:08pm - archaeon ""] http://www.myspace.com/devourment [img] |
| ___________________________________________ [Apr 4,2009 10:00pm - captain diabetes ""] Jewski put some lossless shit on SMN. Get over there and steal it. |
| ___________________________________________ [Apr 4,2009 10:00pm - captain diabetes ""] I'm fucking retarded |
| _________________________________________ [Apr 5,2009 1:17am - MillenialKingdom ""] Good stuff. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 5,2009 10:39am - DrewBlood ""] this sounds like fucking mush. black metal guitar tone, in-audible bass, and fruity loops drums. did these guys forget how to write slams? no groove at all and no memorable riffs. these songs are disappointing as hell. with dying fetus, cannibal corpse, and deeds of flesh all putting out exciting new material, this is not a good time to be underwhelming in death metal. especially for a veteran band like devourment. |
| _________________________________ [Apr 5,2009 2:04pm - archaeon ""] Theres a total MTD style slam in fed to pigs. i wigger'd |
| _________________________________________ [Apr 5,2009 2:41pm - corpus_colostomy ""] i always thought it woulda been cool to make dysentery logo shirts that said 'fuck devourment' on the back; although it looks like the ironic effect of that design is slightly diminished in lieu of these horrible new tunes. ps: sweet cover design. never seen anything like that before. |
| ________________________________ [Apr 5,2009 3:03pm - Martins ""] I don't get the hate. It may be because they're actually straying away from slam a bit but I like this better. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 5,2009 3:57pm - Pires ""] i think its pretty good actually... |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 5,2009 4:04pm - Dave_Maggot ""] i likey |

| _________________________________ [Apr 5,2009 4:17pm - niccolai ""] Not a fan. Where are the guitars in the mix? Not having any balls. Thats where. vocal patterns are boring. I would have dug it a few years back, but like Drew said, the bar has been raised and they don't seem to be reaching it with this release. |
| _________________________________ [Apr 5,2009 4:34pm - rotivore ""] I dont like majewskys vocals.......they sound a more midranged gutteral than low gutteral and all the vocals blend into and sound like one long run-on word......what that word is?? you tell me |
| _________________________________ [Apr 5,2009 5:10pm - archaeon ""] has the guitar ever been in devourment mixes? |
| _______________________________ [Apr 6,2009 1:59am - ernie ""] whats with the puppy thing |
| _______________________________ [Apr 6,2009 2:01am - ernie ""] i dont think this is that bad, you guys all just love to hate. it sounds alot like sexcrement to me |
| _____________________________ [Apr 6,2009 2:01am - BSV ""] I fucking miss Wayne. RIP |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 6,2009 8:53am - aaron_michael ""] meh, it'll probably grow on me |
| ___________________________________________________ [Apr 6,2009 8:10pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] I thought this band used to have slams. :( |
| ____________________________________________ [Apr 6,2009 8:34pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Now they just have unislam. |
| ________________________________ [Apr 6,2009 8:40pm - moenli ""] this didnt turn me off altogether...the production is bad but this IS Devourment. They dont have them Ken Susi/Adam D dollars. This is heavy enough to get a passing grade to me. |
| ____________________________________________ [Apr 6,2009 8:50pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] I don't hear that much of a difference between the 2 new songs and Butcher The Weak, so it didn't turn me off either. I don't expect a band like Devourment to do anything differently; and if anyone expects them to put out anything on par with the early material, they're only setting themselves up to not like the new stuff. To each his own I suppose. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 6,2009 9:09pm - spaldino ""] honestly... if they had better guitar tone, this would be way heavier. and a NON DISTORTED BASS. that shit kills is. its just static to the mix... get a clean bass signal, cut the highs, raise the mid and top the lows and that would add more to the heaviness. the guitars need to be cleaner. you cant hear shit. Ruben should ask the dude from Malignancy about proper tone in a 1 guitar brutal death metal band. |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 7,2009 12:53am - fishcakes ""] I'm digging it... |
| _______________________________ [Apr 7,2009 10:22am - sever ""] This is cool stuff. I like it. |
| ____________________________________________ [Apr 7,2009 10:30am - MikeOvDecrepitvde ""] Devourment (post MTD) and their legion of clones = Into The Oven NO MOSH NO CORE NO TRENDS NO FUN |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 7,2009 10:32am - The_Rooster ""] I like the sound of it. It's sludgy shit, so it needs to sound sludgy. If I want to hear perfect production with tons of clarity, I'll listen to Job For a Cowboy, or some other record that Andy Sneap mixed. The production gets the point across. It's violent and dark sounding. Music is pretty goddamn heavy too. I like it so far. DrewBlood said:with dying fetus [snip] putting out exciting new material, this is not a good time to be underwhelming in death metal. especially for a veteran band like devourment. When's the last time Dying Fetus put out anything worth listening too? I gave up when I heard "Stop at Nothing". |

You're joking right. Seriously? I'll preface this by saying that I fucking HATE Line 6 amps, when they're in the wrong hands (most people), but Ron's guitar sound is easily some of the heaviest shit I've ever heard. They do not suck live, in any regard. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 7,2009 10:38am - Yeti ""] if you disliked Stop at Nothing then don't bother with War of Attrition. it is much better, but nothing to write home about. |
| ____________________________________________ [Apr 7,2009 10:40am - MikeOvDecrepitvde ""] Prying Anus should have stopped writing music after Killing on Adrenaline. |

| ______________________________ [Apr 7,2009 10:53am - blue ""] Nick has only seen malig like twice in the last year, spalding and ryan are on the ball by saying that ronnie's sound (did) rule. It turned to crap when he didn't want to lug his giant rack around anymore. And cross species is actually the best malignancy cd. war of attrition is a considerable step up from stop at nothing. Worth a listen if you ask me. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 7,2009 2:25pm - BlackoutRick ""] Am I the only one who thinks they suck? Usually the music saves the vocals but with them the music sucks too. |
| ________________________________ [Apr 7,2009 2:27pm - reimroc ""] groovy |
| ______________________________ [Apr 7,2009 2:42pm - rbss ""] Devourment has always been pretty mediocre, and this is par for the course Call me when a band that actually has a shred of originality releases something |

| _______________________________________ [Apr 7,2009 5:23pm - Blender_Method ""] LOL at Line 6 for anything other than a preproduction tool. The tube amp that Line 6 did with Bogner would be my ideal preproduction tool and just an all around "fun" head, but it still doesn't hold up to so many other heads and it's not worth the money. As for the new Devourment... I've never liked Devourment, and funny enough, this is the first time i've enjoyed listening to them. Also, for what it is, I kinda dig the production. Nothing stellar in the world of audio production, but for this band, based off of what I've heard, it sounds good. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 7,2009 6:49pm - porphyria ""] Is it a requirement for every metal band to have a 'landscape' illustration on the cover or are there only 2 artists of the same style to choose from? I also LOVE how everyone has become total tone snobs as if they have 'teh most ultimate tone of all!' |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 7,2009 7:28pm - porphyria ""] haha, of course! I use to have teh best tone eva too until everyone else got the same amp as me :spineyes: |
| __________________________________ [Apr 8,2009 12:12am - metalguy ""] I like the new stuff... It seems like they are going for overall brutality and not just slam riffs. I never thought it really mattered what a band does in the present as long as they did cool shit in the past. There are some exceptions to that. (Metallica) For instance Dying Fetus could possibly release 12 more shitty albums, but they still have a solid 3 cd's to tour on and help promote there new stuff. Malignancy rules! I agree the new material they have done isn't the best. I was a big fan of Cross Species and Motivated by Hunger. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 8,2009 2:36am - fishcakes ""] aside from ron's amp not being loud enough...Malignancy is amazing live! |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 8,2009 2:44am - Jimmy revenge ""] whats with the hate? that shit is fucking gay. fuck that. |
| _________________________________________ [Apr 8,2009 7:50am - corpus_colostomy ""] Jimmy%20revenge said:whats with the hate? that shit is fucking gay. fuck that. it's not really a matter of "hate." it's matter of voicing your own opinion on various "metal musings" which, is ultimately what this board is about if i am not mistaken. what would be really truly gay is if everyone had the same opinion as you jimmy. that would be worthy of a "fuck that." i happen to agree with drewblood: it seems like at the moment some bands are really raising their game (emphasis on 'some'), and the differentiation between those bands efforts and the 'NEW' devourment stuff seems strong, and not in a good way. im not gonna comment on devourment's tone because: 1.) it's myspace 2.) it's devourment and 3.) because when ruben borrowed fish's ampeg solid state at PAL he looked like a space ship had landed. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 8,2009 7:05pm - fishcakes ""] he allso offered to buy it off me after the show... |
| _____________________________ [Apr 8,2009 8:20pm - blue ""] But you sir are smarter than that. Ampeg for the solid state win |
| __________________________________ [Apr 9,2009 1:23am - fishcakes ""] true that |
| ________________________________ [Apr 12,2009 3:05pm - UnJosh ""] More brutal slammin' from Devourment. I like the production, much cleaner and it definitely loses that Sludgey low end shaking the whole room kind of thing they need. I love the first slow part in Fed to the Pigs. Cool maggot thing too. I Approve! |
| __________________________________ [Apr 12,2009 10:32pm - moenli ""] they were heavy as all outsides with that Ampeg amp...after a while i was just standing there smiling/laughing cuz i didnt know what else to do |
