The music itself was good, being Paradise Lost/My Dying Bride inspired doom/death metal; however, the band employed one of the worst death metal singers of all time. His vocals are so terrible that he makes latter day Glen Benton and Chris Barnes sound fresh and enjoyable. I actually tried to like this album – even vainly attempting to ignore the vocals -- but since he barks every second, it's virtually impossible. It's as if the vocalist went out of his why to dive-bomb the band's career, which he did: they broke up a few months after it was released even though they had a six album deal with Century Media. <br /><br />Destroying a six album deal with Century Media, though, may have been more shrewd than I had previously imagined, now that I think about it. One would easily make more money folding clothes at Zara for a month than from the sales of six albums released by that label. <br /><br />Damn – I didn't know Rotting Christ was held as a national treasure in Greece. You fucked up royally, Frank.zacharynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273126442475794090.post-8915124800121571382009-07-24T08:11:41.369-04:002009-07-24T08:11:41.369-04:00You guys forgot to mention Century Media's &qu...You guys forgot to mention Century Media's "best" band: Demolition HammerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273126442475794090.post-81103906253727147822009-07-24T04:46:10.949-04:002009-07-24T04:46:10.949-04:00"A Dead Poem" really is when people star..."A Dead Poem" really is when people started to question the artistic integrity of Rotting Christ, though.

A Dead Poem was where they took a shit dive. Having said that I bought their new DVD recently and some of the newer songs sound pretty good, so it looks like they've finally got over their faggy Goth phase, which is when I stopped listening to them. I hope I'm not a trend by wearing a Burzum shirt? I've been wearing them (not the same one obviously...) since 1991. The first one I bought came from Euronymous himself. <br /><br />I also used to work in a warehouse myself, when I got so sick of archaeology for a few months, so I can relate to this piece. The place I worked packed computer games and this is where I got to find out about Harvest Moon, surely the sweetest game in the world... No fighting, just farms.

Greek black metal has never been anywhere near as trendy as the stuff from Norway (if you don't believe me, look at how many posers like to wear Dimmu Borgir and Burzum shirts, not that there's anything musically wrong with Norwegian black metal) and then think about how nu metal was the trend in 97 that everyone bought into. Then think about how Rotting Christ could headline earlier this year unlike most of those trendy nu metal bands. And A Dead Poem was one of their best releases.Dasherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01162626589840384169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273126442475794090.post-88521350657449860462009-07-23T15:09:39.119-04:002009-07-23T15:09:39.119-04:00I wonder how one can write a lengthy article on Ce...I wonder how one can write a lengthy article on Century Media Records and NOT mention the aural shit-storm that is iwrestledabearonce? This band offers all the flash-in-the-pan trends that metal labels salivate over: a chick lead singer that offers grindcore 'waaah! waaah! waaah!' screeching, pig squealing, and the ultra coveted –- albeit off-key -- female singing; gratuitous breakdowns; deedly-deedly-dee solos; and wannabe Chick Corea ambient segments. Plus, they cater to both the scene (see Urban Outfitters) and the beardo (see beards and rapist glasses) crowds. <br /><br />Off topic, but the new Obituary is the best they've done since “Cause of Death”.
