Discuss.:krusty: I think the word "heavy" doesn't acurately describe those kinds of bands. I think "brutal" would be more descriptive. Heavy is what you'd say about a band like Sabbath or Blue Cheer. Having an an old fart father from the 60s-70s hard rock/metal era I hear him say heavy quite a bit. Heavy isn't Brutal. I do however, think Mindrot does have more heavy qualities to it. bla bla bla |

| ___________________________________ [Aug 22,2006 12:22pm - ShadowSD ""] The first time I heard those guys I noticed a difference between them and the death metal I had heard in the past, a style involving a certain seperation in the mix between the vocals and the music that many subsequent bands emulated. Not my favorite style by a long shot, but a notable mention for this discussion. It's kind of impossible, as others have pointed out, to name the heaviest definitive bands in the world, because there are countless ridiculously heavy bands out there (some of which we probably haven't heard yet). So instead I took the approach of picking bands that were considered watermarks for different takes on metal that pushed the envelope in terms of heavy distortion and brutality. |

| _____________________________________________ [Aug 22,2006 4:37pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Devourment is not the heaviest band that ever lived, they are a 6th generation death metal band that does the same thing 21,000 other death metal bands do, and they're not even faster or more brutal than many others in their field (assuming that is yoru criteria for considering them the heaviest). Even though they might sound slower and not appeal to the ADD of the death metal newb of today, Slowly We Rot and Realm of Chaos were a lot fucking heavier death metal albums. A lot. Sabbath is still the heaviest band ever, for when they first came out. Nowadays, Electric Wizard. Maybe some of the Boris records. |

I don't think Devourment is the heaviest. I also don't think they do the same thing that 21,000 other death metal bands do. I'd say my personal criteria for heaviness would have to be crushing brutal breakdowns maybe with some disgusting guttural vocals. It's all about the groove nigga'. The hell with speed. |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 23,2006 9:08am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Fair enough. I guess when I think of heavy I just think of music that is both disturbing and depressing. The first time I heard Electric Wizard or Saint Vitus I wanted to hang myself it was that oppressive and depressing. The first time I heard Devourment I thought "oh, it's another guttural death metal band". Yeah, they mix it a little different than other bands but musically they are doing the same thing. It's not that I think they are bad, I just don't think they are heavy considering what's out there already. |
