Nasum Appreciation[views:10654][posts:52]_____________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:06pm - the_rooster ""] I'm listening to "Shift", and it blows my mind how great this band is. Such consistently great music came out of those dudes. They have so many "anthems". I have yet to hear any grind band that could be so intense, fast and brutal, all the while writing some of the catchiest, and most massive riffs (remember those?) in the genre. Makes me think about what separates the really great hardcore bands of the past from todays "masters of the mosh". I seriously want to circle pit around the room and pump my fists while I scream along, everytime I listen to them. "Human 2.0" is an absolute masterpiece, and my favorite record of theirs. Blows so hard that that dude died. RIP. Also kind of disappointed in that new band that the drummer is doing. It's not that it's bad, but it's definitely not in the same league as Nasum. |

| _________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:07pm - RustyPS ""] love this band so hard |
| _________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:11pm - W3 nli ""] i wouldn't say i love this band but def helped shape grind |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:14pm - boblovesmusic ""] My first album by Nasum was the Grind Finale compilation. I remember listening to the entire thing in one sitting and being like "holy crap this stuff is amazing." Absolutely one of my favorite bands. |
| _________________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:16pm - BobNOMAAMRooney ""] I liked their New Wave records. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:17pm - dreadkill ""] great band |
| _________________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:17pm - BobNOMAAMRooney ""] They did a sick cover of Under the Sea from the Little Mermaid soundtrack. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:23pm - dreadkill ""] mieszko's voice did a dead-on impression of bassy the crab on that cover. |
| _________________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:24pm - BobNOMAAMRooney ""] He got swept up in a ferocious circle pit with Laura Gainey and about 400,000 Thai people. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:27pm - Jonahatwork ""] dude, so fucking good. completely backed. |
| _________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 3:58pm - oscarct ""] nasum is great, but they came up way to much on shuffle on my ipod |
| _________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 4:05pm - darkwor ""] My fav grind band. The song "Scoop" has the most devastating fast riff ever. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 4:06pm - BOBDEAD ""] I was pretty psyched they covered "Bullshit tradition" by Dropdead.. Nasum kills....totally honored. |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 4:32pm - joeycobra ""] LOVE this band |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 4:41pm - ouchdrummer ""] dunno why, but i don't like em. I always get the "WTF? U donlike NASUM?!" response to that statement. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 4:46pm - dreadkill ""] WTF? U donlike NASUM?! |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 4:50pm - boblovesmusic ""] WTF? U donlike NASUM?! |
| _________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 5:15pm - RustyPS ""] oh Jimbo....so disappointing |
| _________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 5:32pm - W3 nli ""] Jimbo just hates real grind bands |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 30,2009 5:32pm - RichHorror ""] Only real grind bands are on Relapse. |

| _____________________________ [May 1,2009 8:00am - Yeti ""] Old and Tired is an awesome song. |
| ______________________________________ [May 1,2009 8:00am - MetalThursday ""] Love me some Nasum. One time I emailed Mieszko to ask him about tunings and he responded with the info I requested and said "Hope this makes you smarter." Got the chance to see them at the Commercial St. Cafe in Worcester in August of 1999... it was only like their 10th live show ever. Inhale/Exhale is pure grind at it's best. |
| _____________________________ [May 1,2009 8:07am - Yeti ""] i forgot about the Commercial St. Cafe. |
| ______________________________________ [May 1,2009 8:09am - MetalThursday ""] It was a forgettable place, except for the handful of good metal shows they had in late '99. |
| _____________________________________ [May 1,2009 8:59am - BlackoutRick ""] Love Nasum. |
| _______________________________________ [May 1,2009 9:16am - DestroyYouAlot ""] M R GUD |
| ____________________________________ [May 1,2009 9:20am - ouchdrummer ""] my scene points just dropped by 3. :( |

| _________________________________________ [May 1,2009 4:52pm - MillenialKingdom ""] In the top Grind bands ever, including this album. |
| _______________________________ [May 1,2009 5:00pm - Kevord ""] I like Nasum. But not one of my favorite Grind bands. I think there are alot of way better grind. |
| ______________________________________ [May 2,2009 8:09am - MetalThursday ""] Anders, the drummer from Nasum is one of the few drummers in extreme metal to use a single kick pedal. One-footed blasts, no double-bass. Respek! |
| ________________________________ [May 2,2009 8:10am - reimroc ""] now i never knew that little tidbit of information. thats pretty sweet. |
| __________________________________________ [May 2,2009 10:23am - ouchdrummer nli ""] only one bass drum pedal is sweet? Here i was thinking that two was pretty badass. who knew? |
| ______________________________ [May 2,2009 2:22pm - yummy ""] I could circle pit to this shit all day. |
| ________________________________________ [May 22,2009 11:03am - xitsdoomsdayx ""] we are nasum from swedan! No but on a note, nasum in a way are the unsung heros of grind. All you who dont consider them one of the top grind acts of all time, you still need acknoledge and pay your respect because somewhere along the line nasum influenced your fav. grind act. Weather it was a song or an album. SO for the record, BOW DOWN! |
| _______________________________________ [May 22,2009 11:05am - Hungtableed ""] Greatly appreciated... |

| __________________________________ [May 22,2009 6:55pm - Dankill ""] Nasum is without a doubt, one of the most important grind bands of the later generation of grindcore itself. Years from now, bands will still be talking about and playing music full of their influence like you see with a band like Napalm Death. |

Thing about Nasum, is that they stayed consistently awesome, while Napalm Death.... ....not so much. Napalm may have been there when grindcore was still green, but Nasum turned it into something better. |
