Immolation
Original post

I have Close To A World Below and I play it constantly over these last two weeks. Great, twisted riffs, pounding drums, very awesome low-pitched (but not too monotonous) vocals and great, I do mean great, solos!
I have not yet heard their other releases, but I hope they are as good as CTAWB
Any opinions on this band?

I heard Failures For Gods once before purchasing and was impressed, but after hearing this album a few times, I am seriously shocked as to why it is one of the less talked about albums. The album has raw production like Dawn of Possession, but is more pissed off and brutal. But, it is able to slow down with some extremely catchy doom riffs. An underrated classic to say the least.

I really like Imolation's sound, i'm thinking it's time i get around to buying some of their albums soon. Any recommendations as to which ones i should get first ? I'm thinking either their latest, Dawn of Possession or Close to a World Below.

Written by Visioneerie on 02.10.2008 at 23:57 DOP and CTAWB are actually my favorites. Though DOP sounds slightly more old school and unique IMO to their discography, mainly in terms of production though.

Agreed....check out DOP. But some people who are really into this band seem to like that album less for some reason. Failures for gods is also recommended

I have only heard Dawn Of Possession which is one of my favourite albums - not been able to get hold of any of their other stuff and when I see stuff on ebay it's always too expensive although I would love to see how they are playing these days. Can anyone recommend their new stuff?

Yep. If you would have read the other pages you would see lots of praise for Shadows in the Light.

I bought Close to a World below recently after hearing it a couple of times, and I've probably listened to it about 8-10 times now. The guitar solos are legendary and it is pretty obvious that the tracks are well constructed. But, outside of the solos, I just can't seem to get into the album. I dunno, maybe I need to give it another couple of listens.

Robert Vigna is one of the most talented riffs writers in history of death metal. Punishing band, imperative for any hardcore death metal fan.

Yea I quit reading the reviews on that site because the way he writes is so fucking pompous. But at least calling the new Immolation metalcore proves that he doesn't know much of anything.

My GOD buit what else could we expect from ANUS? I loved this bit "verse/chorus-break-verse/chorus-symbolic" mmmm, have they listened to early death metal albums? Most have that same pattern as well

Written by vezzy on 17.10.2010 at 17:44 Yeah, I know. If the album that they are reviewing isn't Burzum, Arghoslent, or Beherit, they call it metalcore. They call everything metalcore. I bet if their smoothie blender doesn't work very well they'd call it metalcore.

Written by Dangerboner on 17.10.2010 at 04:42 When did ANUS get any credibility? The name of the website itself is a strong hint at what you can expect to come out of it.

A legal download? Not unless you find it on iTunes like the rest of their stuff, unfortunately.
