    You know you are doing something unique when you get fifty different sub-genre names at once. I'm glad when a band just writes music instead of trying to fit into any particular genre.

    Sometimes electronics can sound super cheesy in metal but Fallujah do it so well.

    Really awesome band. Can't even remember how I found this band and now can't stop listening.

    Well said. Fallujah sounds great on Dreamless and are a fucking devastating act live. I saw them on the latest Devin Townsend tour in Worcester and they smashed it. I am the prog nerd who loves Porcupine Tree and Opeth and Tool and now I like Fallujah,

    Awesome, I had no idea that he actually played the synths live.

    I've always thought of them as atmospheric/technical death metal. They're songs can be blistering fast but still have some of the best clean and ambient sections. Two good examples are the void alone and sapphire.

    Please review Inquisition ' s Bloodshed Across the Empyrean altar beyond the celestial zenith and organize an interview with Dagon (front man of Inquisition).

    That's awesome that he nor his band mates care what sub-genre he gets "categorized" in.

    Please make the interviews longer, 3 minutes is much too short. Interviews should be at least 8-10 minutes minimum. In the future you can do a 20 minute or 30 minute interview and cut it into parts and that keeps people coming back to the channel to watch the next part of the interview. Love everything on the channel but the 3 minute interviews are such a tease!

      Check out our "Raw and Uncut" series for longer interviews. The "Blastbeat" series gives you the best bits of the interview. You will see more of it pop up in our docs and other shows. Cheers!

      I've watched all the "Raw and Uncut" interviews and love them. Thanx for replying, now I understand. Always love your content, keep up the good work!

    Cool to see him mention Vangelis. I definitely thought there were some Blade Runner-inspired electronics on Dreamless.

    Dreamless was alright but I enjoyed The Flesh Prevails more

    • @poser_disposer
      @poser_disposer 8 років тому +1

      Same. I thought when the weird whammy sounding stuff (apparently that's achieved with a synth?) sounded better when it took a back seat to the tech death elements rather than being the focal point of the album. I'm interested to hear the new album, wouldn't quite say excited though.

    • @wazzap500
      @wazzap500 8 років тому +1

      MutilatedMetalhead Agree. Dreamless gets boring as hell after Scar Queen.
      On the Flesh Prevails every single song was memorable and the most important thing for Fallujah is their album flow. You can easily listen to The Flesh Prevails all at once. Not so with Dreamless.

    • @isaaczaladar1174

      yeah its was a dissapoint the flesh prevails was just masterpiece with awful production but dreamless just sounds flat and way too calculated is ok ....hope is just an experiment and come back with the more prog like flesh!!!

      This is how you make Dreamless an amazing album:
      1. Remove "Amber Gaze". It's just too boring (imo)
      2. Also get rid "The Prodigal Son". The part in between is simply too boring.
      3. Get rid of "Les Silence" because it's just unnecessary
      4. Get rid of "Wind for Wings" because the ending breaks the flow.
      My personal Dreamless Tracklist:
      1. Face of Death (good intro)
      2. Adrenaline (awesome follow-up)
      3. The Void Alone (Album Highlight)
      4. Abandon (great song)
      5. Lacuna (just awesome)
      6 Fidelio (short and sweet. Perfect follow-up for the harsh ending of Lacuna
      7. Scar Queen (Fits better at the end)
      8. Dreamless (For a smooth ending)
      I highly suggest you to try my tracklist. I think the flow is a LOT better like this. (You actually listen to the whole thing without feeling like skipping a part)

      UrbanDanger ! i think remove .. dreamless and the other electronic "songs" and the album would be still ok.....the real problem is that fallujah avoid mostly the guitar atmospherics and the tech stuff...that's why sound not so awsome

    Scott's guitar playing/song writing is the core of this band. The 'electronic' parts do nothing for me.
