lol weird metal? You could always try Burzukh's new stuff, here [link] although I thought the first album was a bit better.

02:06 - Karlabos
I actually am more interested in stuff like that Burzukh you posted some days ago. Anything similar to that? And Lokaeda, that Korean band is huh.. weird.

02:01 - moonflash
Their new stuff is damn good too [link]

01:55 - moonflash
Was just listening to some doom/sludge, maybe you'll like it [link]

01:54 - Lokaeda
@Karlabos after a thorough browsing of your favourite bands, I have come to the conclusion that this [link] perfectly matches your tastes.

01:43 - Karlabos

Coroner is one of those Thrash Metal bands that got disbanded in the early nineties as a result of the overall decline in the scene. However this similarity with other bands of the genre is probably the only one because no one played like Coroner. Of course, there were other bands labeled as Technical Thrash, but not one of them was as cool as them, especially concerning the technical side itself. When this trio play, nothing is static; the music flows with so many changes that it's impossible to get bored.

Classic album for it's time, and perhaps a shining example of Coroner's forward-thinking creativity.

My favourite Coroner album.

"I Want You (She's So Heavy)" is the best cover song I ever heard ... obsessively hypnotic, brilliant arrangement
