Immolation

New EP, called Providence, out soon.

I wasn’t a huge fan of Majesty and Decay. The epic songwriting was gone, replaced with some simplified stuff that didn’t fit together except rhythmically. It’s what Harnessing Ruin threatened to be: a transition to mainstream material and a corresponding loss of self, sort of like some allege Turbo to have been for Judas Priest.

    I would expect the Anus to claim “Hell Bent for Leather” to be the turning point for Judas Priest, but whatever floats your boat.

  2. Queero Mc Hungo says:

    My dick is the only truth, all you little cunts need to understand that. Your lips bracing my cock is a holy image, feel my thickness of my throbbing rod! I know every time you fart, it’s just your asshole calling my name!

    Harnessing Ruin WAS a cross into a mainstream. They improved since that.

    Disregard that I love Mastodon!

  7. vag vikernes says:

    Any death metal band could improve by aspiring to be like a real band such as Mercyful Fate.

    This music is Panterrible!

  9. @ lololol just read immolation reviews says:

    How many cocks are you willing to continue sucking in dark alleys, when you could come out of the closet and admit you’re gay and suck dicks in broad daylight?

  10. lololol just read immolation review says:

    sorry bro, im not negro voda. i just have trouble taking a couple aspects of some of these reviews seriously. :)

  11. Mastodon guy says:

    Not as gay as Mastodon, but still pretty homoerotic. I got an erection at least, time to find a sexy young metalboy to suck my cock.

  12. dicknosed shitface says:

    Corporate metal sucks, I hope Immolation gets killed in a tourbus accident involving a toyota scion.

  13. fuckin neato says:

    lots of riffs in this song. less stilted than majesty and decay. would listen again.

    The threads of global fabric are untied
    The role of the western free world is in decline
    Still free to consume, free to breathe
    Free to exist, free to dream, your life of dreams
    Keep on rotting, keep on hoping, keep on dreaming
    One day maybe, keep on rotting, keep on hoping
    Whilst in the real world you…
    Consumer or consumed, your life is cheap
    Economic salvation in sweatshops returned from the east
    Despair the only quality of strife
    A reason for existence if you can afford the price,
    If your price is right
    Keep on rotting, keep on hoping, keep on dreaming
    One day maybe, keep on rotting, keep on hoping
    Whilst in the real world you…
    Keep on rotting, keep on hoping, keep on dreaming
    One day maybe, keep on rotting, keep on hoping
    Whilst in the real world you…

    haha, no.

  17. real music says:

    Disregard that I like Mastadon

  18. sorry, you listen to bad music. please don't try discussing your embarrassing hobby with music fans. says:

    Are you listening to real music? Here’s a simple litmus test: if it can’t be played on a woodwind instrument, or it sounds absolutely retarded if you tried that, it’s most probably shit. This especially goes for metal.

    For your reference, this is real music:

  19. unchallenging and uninteresting garbage says:

    >open link
    >literally three note riff repeated over and over again, over an unpleasant aesthetic of growly burps and machine gun drums

    Yeah, this was boring after 5 seconds.

  20. for a band supposedly at this for over 20 years, they sure as fuck haven't figured out anything about making music says:

    actually make that 3 seconds, which is as long as it takes to figure out it’s the same worthless shit over and over again

  21. Dick Schlimline, Attorney at Law says:

    >three note riff repeated over and over again

    its called a motif. Clearly, your honor, the defendant is a musically illiterate faggot.

    How do you plea, unchallenging and uninteresting garbage?

    Listen to this instead. Colossal bestial black metal.

  23. can't believe I'm reading this shit says:

    >its called a motif.

    Yeah dude. And row, row, row your boat is a contrapuntal masterpiece.

  24. it's hard being a brutal midget says:

    Colossal cocks in your ass, more like.

    Square your shit away and listen to this. Preferably while your dad beats the faggot out of you.

  25. brutal slayer of christians, noble hessian warrior of death says:

    Lmao, you think your gay military music is any good? Fuck off faggot, you’d get devastated at a Revenge concert if I ever saw your fugly face. 5’10 isn’t short unless you’re a lanky 6’7 ogre, in which case you should kill yourself because you’ll never have an aesthetic body.

  26. USMC says:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVxSMsLTj2M

    And this, make sure you have the volume up to max while your dad and uncle kick you in the ribs and pull on your girly long hair.

  27. son, you deserve a hard slap across the face, and a one-way ticket to military school. says:

    >attempts to bash John Phillips Sousa
    >praises “Revenge” IE worthless shit

    lol, just lol

  28. brutal slayer of christians, noble hessian warrior of death says:

    Revenge is a milestone of BRUTALITY and unbearable extermination, and their first album stands as one of the most irreverent, uncompromising and merciless opuses ever.

    Don’t fuck with the superion crew, we’ll fuck you up while listening to our anthem…BLOOD OF MY BLOOD http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oESpHG-ZN7M

  29. lol @ your pathetic attempts to make that shit band sound cool to 13 year olds, fucken brutal dude says:

    Sounds like AIDS. Completely weak, effeminate shit. The screamer or whatever sounds like he’s whining about how much his life sucks because he’s a weak faggot and below average height.

    Typical reaction of a weak pussy whose ears simply cannot stand the unadultered aural violence that seeps through the speakers to bring about a transcendental experience for the proud barbarians WHO TREAD THE MIGHTY PATH OF SUPERION. FUCK OFF AND DIE FEEBLE OAF, YOU ARE TOO WEAK TO UNDERSTAND.

    brb, mom just called me for dinner :(

  35. your music is pussy noise says:

    >unadultered aural violence

    Sorry, all I heard was effete faggotry. Next time try posting something that’s at least actually heavy.

  36. brutal slayer of christians, noble hessian warrior of death says:

    Nice try faggot, don’t pretend like you didn’t cry in a corner after being destroyed by the blistering panzer cacophony. Just go back to last.fm homo, you’re not welcome here.

  37. hardcore a la mort, putaine! says:

    This is much more badass than that weak shit you listen to, pussy gayer.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMYB3BDC1WU

    Perfect music for stomping your dorky ass to the curb. After which I’ll whip your polyhedric die right at your prone, pudgy body while you whimper in tears.

  38. seriously though, that shit was hella weak says:

    I’m not going to pretend I didn’t listen to 3 seconds of that Revenge song before closing the tab and not bothering to waste my time any further.

  39. brutal slayer of christians, noble hessian warrior of death says:

    Lmao, sounds like Gaybreed shit. Listen faggot, I deadlift 500 lb and could probably hurl you against the wall like I easily lift your mom when fucking her upright. Now stop being a little turd and piss off.

  40. question says:

    How do you deal with the fact that Hatebreed is a much heavier, more badass band than that shit you listen to that sounds like a 10W amplifier fizzled out a fart?

  41. brutal slayer of christians, noble hessian warrior of death says:

    Hatebreed…heavy? HAHAHAHA. Yea, maybe to 13 year olds who don’t know what REAL primal brutality is all about. Gotta love dat cognitive dissonance.

  42. martial sledgehammer riffs >>>>>>>>>>> tremolo fuzz and buttrape wailing says:

    >heavy
    >primal brutality

    Nice attempted diversion; seriously though, Hatebreed is a million times heavier than Re-vage. Great projection too, I think you’ve made it pretty obvious how both the cognitive dissonance and aspie are strong with you.

  43. brutal slayer of christians, noble hessian warrior of death says:

    All you have to do is go to a Hatebreed concert to see how worthless their music is. The main fanbase is just underage kiddies who got driven there in their mother’s SUV. Revenge shows are composed of people over the age of 20 who will decimate you without mercy.

    Lol @ insisting Hatebreed is heavy at all. Just give up faggot, your inane drivel is lost on those who are on a higher plane. Also, stop using “aspie”. I know your ESL teacher used to love calling you that to your face back in primary school when you couldn’t even muster a single sentence in English.

  44. lol revenge are canadians, hahaha. lol look at these rednecks http://www.metal-archives.com/images/6/4/0/8/6408_photo.jpg says:

    my favourite Revenge album is Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat

  45. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJOkpoj09fg says:

    >Hatebreed
    >not heavy

    Sure is forced argument in here.

    >higher plane

    You mean a higher functioning autist like you? “Nyarrrr, bow to lord superiorrrr!” Seriously, you give me way more ammo than I have time to deal with.

  46. brutal slayer of christians, noble hessian warrior of death says:

    It’s funny. If you had any sense of honor you’d be ashamed of how you are viewed by people who read your comments.

    I bet you struggle to convince yourself that your massive negative reputation has nothing to do with you being a totally ignorant piece of crap. I know people like you try to pretend that you LIKE having people think you’re a pathetic loser, but we all know you don’t.

    While I think you’re an ignorant pool of bubbly shit it’s reaching a point where your willful ignorance, bigotry, and just plain stupidity is starting to make me feel bad. I’m really beginning to suspect you’re a high functioning retarded person of some kind who really IS that bigoted and selfish and ignorant and who really DOESN’T have any sympathy or empathy or connection to other human beings.

    I pity the people around you in your life. I’m sure demonstrate in real life the values you espouse here, which probably means no one can trust a word you say or leave you alone with valuables. I bet no one leaves children unattended around you or lets you pet sit.

    I feel gross after reading your comments. Like I’ve got some sort of psychic filth on me that has leaked from you to me.

    The saddest part is how you obviously think you’re smart when you clearly are not, which I think is another sign of retardation or autism where you think you are far more intelligent than you are.

    It’s weird how you seem to embrace selfishness and dishonesty as POSITIVE values, and things like caring for other people and working together as NEGATIVE values. Even children in kindergarten have learned more than you appear to have, which again points to lack of development.

    Everyone knows that “Walking on Sunshine” episode of Intervention. That episode ruined that show for me, crossed some sort of line were I can no longer take entertainment from other people’s suffering. You are staring to appear like that girl to me, except instead of huffing duster you are someone just so ignorant and selfish and convinced of his own superiority that you huff some sort of right wing fantasy world.
    I’m starting to feel like when I become disgusted by you it’s like being one of those people who is mean to retarded people, and that bothers me. We shouldn’t be disgusted by people like you, right? You can’t help being a perfect little honorless scumbag who is so seflish and ignorant you can’t see value in anything that isn’t YOU.

  47. fixed that for you says:

    >Revenge shows are composed of the 5-6 middleaged blue collar drunks who would have shown up anyway at the prairie dive bar where they happened to play that day for the first time in 5 years.

  48. lol you're MEGA butthurt, too bad you didn't bust the caps out this time says:

    Way to discount a lot of African, east Asian, etc. percussive music, champ. I know this might come as a surprise to a white guy such as yourself but U2 is not the world standard.

  51. poop in my butt says:

    Bach apparently isn’t music because you can’t play a fugue on “a woodwind instrument”! Ahh the wisdom of the yuppies.

Get the fuck off this page and tell some faggots about your “great” music! I’m sure homosexuals would love that shit BECAUSE WE DO NOT!

  61. Vajazzle Prosack says:

    Metal is just an ass career.

    You make some good music, then realize you signed the rights away, so you now have to whore like mad or you’ll die young in the poorhouse.

    So you start selling out.

    Pantera, Tool, Led Zeppelin, whatever… mix it into the music.

    At least Bad Brains had integrity. None of the other musical integrationists do.

    Here’s a short tour of total sellout turds:

    * Metallica – The Black Album. country/metal/indie-alternative
    * Carcass – Heartwork. cheesy melodic speed metal
    * Immolation – Majesty and Decay. deathcore

    Do we need go further?
