Gorguts: Obscura - To me this is one of those "What the fuck?" kind of to album. For the whole time Im listening to this album, I was trying to peg on something that would latch me into the music but I just keep geting lost. The vocals sounds insane and thats good for me. The guitars, oh guitars, I think riffing here is nonexistent. It skrapes and skrapes, random beeps and notes everywhere. Somewhere it sounds like epileptic person was playing a harp to death. The drummer uses odd time signatures peppered with blast beats and pedals. Yet somehow amidts the chaos, the band gets something coherent going on. I dont know, it will take time for a weakling like me to digest the whole album. After 30mins or so of listening, I go scrambling for my jazz cd's. looking for some semblence of song structure. Damn this cd gave me a headache.
Now for Amon Amarth, well now this is something which I easily enjoy. Melodic riffs whith vibrato sounding solos, typical death metal vocals. Lyrics are mostly about going to war pagan gods norse mythology. I got 2 from them: Avenger and Once from the golden halls. The first one having better production in my opinion while the later I enjoyed more due to its epic sounding songs and a far more longer songs which gave more value to my money. This band made me wanna swing swords and run in the forest more, than all my black album collections combined!
Oh yeah, I noticed Martin Lopez of Opeth played drums in Once sent from.... Top notch.
Overall I think this music plays well while playing Warcraft playing either human or Orc campaign.
On a sidnote, hear there is a warcraft 4 on the works which shall include the Human faction, of course there is still the orcs and then the satanist faction.
