| __________________________________ [Aug 14,2006 5:31pm - powerkok ""] I vote rules, on guitar shredsmanship only. Songwriting could be better. |
| _______________________________________________________________ [Aug 14,2006 6:21pm - Cecchini @ work and not nli... punks ""] they have a few real sick songs.... so, rule |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 14,2006 10:41pm - ConquerTheBaphomet ""] Necrophagist is definitely in my top 10 favorite bands. |

Songwriting could be better. i think the exact opposite actually. sometimes the solos are very samey from song to song whereas I feel the songwriting is always really interesting and unique. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 15,2006 9:11am - Anthony nli ""] and yes they rule. i think this whole question of whether they are 'wanky' is ridiculous. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 15,2006 9:19am - DreamingInExile ""] rules! |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 15,2006 12:44pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] I like 'em because they're fun, but they're not about to change the world with a few guitar arpeggios. When they can actually write songs better than "Pull the Plug" or "Body Bag" then they'll rule. But as of today, pretty much all the Polish death metal bands > Necrophagist. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 15,2006 12:48pm - Anthony nli ""] i think Necrophagist have written some pretty incredible songs.... anything off the second record IMO has really strong songwriting |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 15,2006 12:50pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] I liked the first album considerably more, the second just went in one ear and out the other, but it's been awhile, so I'll listen again. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 15,2006 2:52pm - Anthony nli ""] there are alot of great musical ideas on 'Onset..' but the way those ideas are presented isnt nearly as thought out and fluid as on 'Epitaph.' |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 15,2006 6:12pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Probably because on Epitaph he actually had an entire band? Isn't Onset just one guy? |
| ______________________________ [Aug 15,2006 6:14pm - blue ""] yeah, but mohammed has always been the main songwriter. |

They have achieved a certain sound that nobody has even come close too so far. yeah Necro are very unique in a sea of tech-death bands that all sound like they're trying to be Suffo. They are elite. Up there with Anata, SoP... and classics like Cynic, Atheist and Human-Sound of Perseverance era Death. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 16,2006 5:08pm - Ryan_M ""] i say they're too wanky....they're very talented, but when death metal bands get too technical like that, it kinda ruins the whole atmosphere of the music. to me, death metal should help bring out the darkest and most impure feelings and thoughts of the listener, not so they can sit and jerk off over how many notes the guitar player can pull out of his ass in between blastbeats. death metal isn't about being a guitar hero, it's about bringing out the hate for every person who ever fucked you over or pissed you off in any way, and it should be a boot in the face to anyone who jumps from bandwagon to bandwagon in a desperate attempt to be number one in the "in crowd" sorry for the long rant, it's probably the jim beam and coke in my belly talking. |
