I'm not a fan of the company Arsis is keeping these days.

Hahahah.

this is the metalcore band? I forget...

Yeah, more deathy than most if memory serves.

yeah, its the metalcore band. theyre not that bad.

Aren't they all metalcore bands though?

i like Ed Gein, never heard Becoming the Archetype. If it helps Arsis get more fans then more power to them, I'm 100% sure the music will continue to be ridiculous.

for the most part, yes. although, i think youd be interested in ed gein considering i know you're into the botch/old cave in side of chaotic metalcore.

i'm really hoping to go to the MA date, for arsis alone. ed gein put on a good show, though i've kind of grown out of them a bit. becoming the archetype are fucking boring as hell. i've listened to the cd probably 20 times trying to find some flow to it, and there is none. they can play their instruments but can't write a song for shit. too bad dan seagrave wasted his amazing artistic talent on their album cover.

who's in that band?

If Arsis are metalcore then I have a drastic misunderstanding of what is and is not metalcore.

retzam said:

frankly i think it seems that any band someone doesnt like can easily be called metalcore, we were told were metalcore.

whiskey_weed_and_women said:

I havn't heard your band before, but I just went to your myspace and the demonic sounds spewing from my speakers are definitely not metalcore in my book, hahaha.

P.S. Really, to be honest, this kicks ass. I just listened A Legacy Less Desired and now I'm listening to Free Thought and I really like it, especially A Legacy Less Desired.

thanks bro, come up to Mark's Showplace to us with one of the best local deathmetal show....(PORPHYRIA, SEXCREMENT, SACRELIGION, and DYSENTERY)

oh yeah GOATWHORE and SUFFOCATION are playing as well

Fuck those guys.
I'll go for Arsis, Ed Gein and whoever else that is worth a shit on that show.

whiskey_weed_and_women said:

Yeah man I'll see if I can make it. And Guenhyvar would love to play a show with you guys sometime if you're down. Let us know if an opening comes up or something. We're a completely different kind of death metal than Throwing Shrapnel, but death metal is death metal right?
