Although i am re-discovering classic hard rock, sometime around 2004 i found, and got way into, Six Feet Under. It seems ( like my other favorite classic rock Band the Scorps ) that they are another good band that doesn't get very much due credit.
I was briefly into Cannibal Corpse in 95....there was some controversy surrounding the band at the time so i bought the cd " the Bleeding". Wasn't to bad. Lyrics way sickening and i still don't agree with what they (CC ) put in songs but it was pushing the envelope of heavy. Got out of it quick though, they were just a bit over the top and cheesy.
But it seems when Chris Barnes formed Six Feet Under, he had turned death metal into a viable art. Slower riffs, slower- amazingly low end monster vocals, solid drumming and bass playing. They are a band band. same lineup since 98 i think.
Chris Barnes ( VOX ) is a trippy hippie death god. Has some interesting world views and his lyrics are a little more " artistically" done, if you can call Death Metal " artistic ".
Im not into the math metal bands or the nu- screemo stuff but i still like a good SFU tune every once in a while.
Your thoughts ?
