If I'm gonna add another band to my top 3 Demon Hunter claims a position without question. One of my first Metal bands, they are what broke me from Weird Al and Classical Music. Yeah, I hadn't branched too far back in the day.
I own each of their albums, and I helped Kickstart an album that the singer is releasing sometime within the next few weeks, so I could say that I'm a reasonably big fan.
Extremist is DH's newest album so far, and I can happily say that it's continued to keep a solid quality. The World Is A Thorn and True Defiance were a little iffy, but they did grow on my after a little while, so I can be happy.
Let's get into my favorite tracks now, eh?
Death
Artificial Light
What I'm Not
Cross To Bear
Gasoline
The Heart Of A Graveyard
Even if you ignore this album, just listen to What I'm Not and The Heart Of A Graveyard. You'll like the last on at the very least.
I love Kickstarter just for that reason--it helps you connect and be a part of something you're passionate about.
ReplyDeleteI search Kickstarter for things every couple weeks, but it can be really hard to find good ones. Stuff like this on that I get linked to though makes things a whole lot easier.
DeleteI've got to admit, Demon Hunter is one of the better metal bands you've introduced me to.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to try harder then... Have I introduced you to our lord and savior Slayer? Something something best metal band in the entirety of existence.
DeleteI'm not much of a metal band fan so I'll take your word on the quality. Great that you've back them with Kickstarter.
ReplyDeleteActually I can provide you a list of their songs if you aren't into Metal. The Heart Of A Graveyard is actually a really good song with no screaming, loud guitars, or crazy drums. It's very melodic and acoustically driven.
DeleteJust give this guys voice a try, he's got my favorite male singing voice.
