While I do agree that At The Gates are "fantastically over-rated" these days, and the plethora of clone-bands or artists that were inspired by them are usually always painful to listen to, I was a pretty big fan when "Slaughter Of the Soul" first dropped, and at that time, it was pretty much something people hadn't heard before, unless of course you were listening to Eucharist and Cardinal Sin before anyone. They put on a great show.
Real Dissection. Same show as ATG. :-)
turtlspinr:
if you want an obscure band that is absolutely amazing, check out Dawnbringer.
They're on Battle Kommand records, their newest record, In Sickness And In Dreams, is ace.
While you're at it, check out:
Without Grief- "Deflower" (melodic death with seven minute songs that aren't boring)
Dimension Zero- "Penetrations From The Lost World" (like At The Gates, but with harsher vocals)
Disarmonia Mundi- "Mindtricks" (the singer from Soilwork in a band that's better than current Soilwork)
Dawn- "Slaughtersun, Crown Of The Triarchy" (epic, crushingly dark blackened metal)
Aeon- "Bleeding The False" (shit lyrics, but excellent brutal death)
Sotajumala- "Death Metal Finland" (The title says it all.)
Ajattara- anything but the new record, "Kalmanto".
Tyr- "Eric The Red" (viking metal at it's finest. clean vocals abound. cheesy, yes, but soooo good.)
Angelcorpse- "The Inexorable"
Anubis Rising- "Funerary Preamble" (it's a collection of all their stuff...like Opeth, but minus the wankery, and a little more sludgy)
21 Lucifers- "The The Name Of..."....ex members of Without Grief doing melodic death with a bit of grind)
Belphegor- either" Goatreich" or "Lucifer Incestus".
Heaven Shall Burn- "Deaf To Our Prayers" (somewhat hardcore influenced, possibly the angriest record ever)
Decapitated- either "The Negation" or "Organic Hallucinosis"
Swallow The Sun- "Hope" (crushing doom with death metal vocals)
While Heaven Wept- "Of Empires Forlorn" (doom with clean sung, almost power metal type vocals)
Eternal Lies- "Spiritual Deception" (melodic death)
Fleshcrawl- "As Blood Runs From The Sky We Walk The Path Of Endless Fire" (old school Swedish death, but from Germany. classic)
Goatwhore- anything
Rapture- "Silent Stage" or "Songs For The Withering" (somewhat doomy, but with a bit of rock thrown in, at least in terms of feeling.)
Guttural Secrete- "Reek Of Pubescent Despoilment" (my buddies....one of the best goredeath bands ever. Ultra brutal, ultra sick. Death slam at it's finest)
Jonin- "The Secret" (metal from North Carolina? good, clean singing? technical music? good stuff)
Killwhitneydead- either "Hell To Pay" or "Nothing Less Nothing More" (the only hardcore band I like)
Keen Of The Crow- "Premonition" (similar to Swallow The Sun. Now broken up unfortunately)
Sanctity- "Road To Bloodshed" (if you're tired of waiting for the new Testament record, this should tide you over)
Mercenary- "The Hours That Remain" (power metal? death metal? thrash? all of the above)
Vehemence- "God Was Created" (is there such a thing as progressive brutal death? this might be it)
Miseration- "Your Demons Your Angels" (the singer of Scar Symmetry in a band that sounds like Scar Symmetry, but with some hardcore influence and more brutality)
Sorrow- "Hatred and Disgust" (turn back the clock to 1992, turn up the suck, and somehow enjoy it. Insane vocals, especially considering how old this is)
Mork Gryning- "Maelstrom Chaos" (black metal from Greece)
Pyrexia- "Age Of The Wicked" (slam from NY....mosh pit madness)
Mors Principium Est- "The Unborn" (melodic death with lots of keyboards and super fast polka beats)
Myrkskog- "Deathmachine" (like Zyklon? well, Zyklon sounds a lot like these guys. Actually, some members are now in Zyklon. or were. I don't care, this is better.)
Impaled- anything (like Carcass? yea, so do they. Sounds like Exhumed, but with a sense of humor and way more talent. Great live band, good guys. Kinda iffy on record.)
Ninnghizhidda- "Blasphemy" (semi symphonic last 90's black-ish metal)
Nile- "Amongst The Catacombs of Nephren-ka" (lots of people rave about new Nile, about the speed and technicality, but I find this far more brutal and vastly superior. Plus, Chief Spier's vocals are WAY deeper and more brutal than anyone in the band now)
Woods Of Ypres- "Pursuit Of The Sun" (this is what Wolves In The Throne Room would sound like with talent and good recording)
The Project Hate- "Cyber Sonic Super Christ" (i hate their new stuff, but this, their debut, is excellent.)
Pyorrhoea- "The Eleventh Shall Be My Slave" (goredeath from Poland. great sound quality, excellent musicianship)
Vintersorg- "Till Fjalls" (viking metal all about snow and nature and space and stars and stuff, sung all in swedish)
Quo Vadis- "Day Into Night" (everyone talks about how good Martyr is, and they are, but Quo Vadis is by far the superior band from Montreal)
Taake- "Bjoergvin" or "Doedskvad" (great "true" black metal that's actually well played and well recorded)
Torchbearer- anything. side project for members of too many bands to list. melodic. brutal. catchy. all at the same time.
Unmoored- "Indefinite Soul Extension" (yet more melodic death from the singer of Scar Symmetry.)
Weirding Way- "Panspermia" (i'm biased because i'm friends with them, but it's really good "sci-fi grind". Their term, not mine.)
1349- anything. harsh, hateful black metal.
happy listening.

I'm SO not going to wacken
way too many people. I mean, a huge crowd can be cool, but it really sucks to be far away from the stage
also, when I'd go to wacken, I'd pay for many shitty bands too, wich I really don't want to.
I prefer smaller open airs, like Party.san (only death and black metal, this year they had primordial, dying fetus, kreator, immolation, Cephalic Carnage, Grave, Asphyx, Gorgoroth, Vader, Belphegor and others), doom shall rise or the mountains of death
