What really makes this band a legend - to me - yes, they are a legend in their own right, but, the true mastery of this legend begins to shine when You think about all the bands that grew out of Napalm Death. As there are:
Carcass (yes, i know they existed before Bill was in ND, but they hadn´t released anything, so i count them) - Cathedral - Scorn - Godflesh - Painkiller
Just to mention a few, maybe better known ones of them.
There will never be a more epic, complex, intricate, sonically eargasmic song than You Suffer. I still remember the first time I heard it. Blew my mind.
A truly magnificent jam. I feel bad for anybody who doesn't want to destroy everything in sight upon hearing it.
That song just makes me laugh😂
@@themetalmeltdownofficial you wouldn’t have enough time though…
Not really a "song" in my book
The lyrics are actually deep ...says You suffer but why?
I recently started listening to them with Throes of Joy. Love that album and am very interested in the rest of their discography. Thank you for making this video.
A band in the land of Birmingham which is absolutely one of the most legendary parts of growing metal as a whole and this band's discography is always one of my favourites. Also my favourite album from them is always From Enslavement to Obliteration
my favorite is definitely Harmony Corruption: perfect oldschool death metal
I was never really into this band but lately they've been growing on me so I've been watching videos on them to see what's good to listen to from them
Same here
Honestly the shock of their second album From Enslavment to Obliteration hooked me it’s my favourite album and then also to add to the happiness and passion of this album it was recorded in my home city what blow my fucking mind
Learned about ND through their first 3 albums and basically grew up on "Utopia Banished".. I know every riff, melody, lick by heart, it's essentially my youth and forever will be. Not many people talk about it these days, but it's worth a listen. And fuck yes, Apex blew me away!
I'm rite there with ya My introduction too Napalm death was with Utopia Banished listened too that album alot when it came out and still love it.Fear emptiness despair is another influential one for me too,but Utopia Banished takes it top tier for me anyways
Doing gods work
Great episode! Hopefully you get your hands on a copy of Harmony Corruption soon. I picked up picture disc 12” back in the day.
OOOO, you lucky fuuuuck.
Great information. Thank you
I for one am surprised that Napalm Death doesn't play easy listening jazz.
This is a perfect video. I was never sure where to begin with this band. Thank you for the suggestions on what to listen to!
Would unironically love a Napalm Death jazz record. Fuck it, shoot for the stars boys.
And you're welcome man, cheers!
Napalm Death and John Zorn/Naked City should make a Collab album then.
@@blackwaterrust476 OMG YES
Brilliant review, I have just started listening to what is my first album since scum, order of the leech, what a great record. Looking forward to diving I yo some of your recommendations
Definitely one of my favorite bands...especially live! Seen them twice and each time they were absolutely amazing! 🤘🤘
Really great videos you put out, keep it up 👍. Now for the question. Is this similar to Anaal Nathrakh? AN is one of my favorite bands and would be awesome to get something new to listen to
Your timing on this video couldn’t be better. I just decided to revisit their whole discography.
Apex Predator is super underrated, got so little buzz when released but it's maybe my favorite ND record.
Another great video man. And what do you think about Lock Up?
Great band, excited to hear their new album!
Great video and reviews as usual, my top 5 personally are.
5. Harmony Corruption
4. Time Waits for No Slave
3. Apex Predator - Easy Meat
2. Smear Campaign
1. Utopia Banished
Great video. FETO is my fave of theirs. But if Mentally Murdered was a full album, it would be my fave, cos I love the mix of grind & death metal they went for on it. Like Utopia Banished, except with Lee & Bill on who I have a soft spot for cos their sound was so dirty & extreme at the time. Totally agree how highly you regard Scum & Harmony Corruption, 2 opposite directions but both perfectly executed. I also agree with your assessment of everything from F, E, D thru to Order of the Leach. I always preferred Order... to Enemy... which is kind of a less common consensus. I got into them around that time & got to know their work with the Noise for Music's Sake compilation, which is a perfect starting point for noobs that shows all their different styles til that point. So I've always had a soft spot for The Code... (still wear the old T-shirt proudly) & Smear Campaign remains my fave of their post 2000 era. It's cool that you also regard those highly, having discovered them a bit later, cos they kinda get overlooked in favor of Time Waits... generally by many fans. I always found that to be a bit of a step back in my opinion, altho it has one of the best opening couple of songs as well as the best closing few on any modern ND album. It just kinda dips with it's length & some of the pacing & experimentation in the middle for me. But it's still ferocious, which is something I'm very pleased they've been able to maintain to this day. The fact they're still going at such an intense level this late in the game is something I'm very grateful for. They're my absolute all time fave extreme metal band. All hail ND!
Anyway, that was my 2c ramble of thoughts. Respect dude, keep up the good work \m/
This weekend has 200 Stab Wounds, Unleashed and Darkwoods My Betrothed dropping albums. As for Darkwoods, their new album is their first in 23 years since 1998.
I'm well aware, just not interested.
@@themetalmeltdownofficial how could you not be interested in 200 stab wounds
@@stejac133 Its a fine album but a lil meat and potatoes for my personal liking, I'd prefer something a touch spicier and funkier.
Although I haven’t hears any of their albums in full yet, I love songs like unchallenged hate and siege of power. I might listen to a full one after watching this, they seem great
Definitely do man, tons of great records to choose from!
ND discography is one of the few that CAN be listened in order without cringing in the end
I Sadly have none of the Napalm Death Albums even though they’ve been on my cd bucket list... but now I know which ones are worth it🤘🏼🔥
Pick some up my dude, treat yourself!
@@themetalmeltdownofficial I just saw Scum & two others a few days back, but I’m gonna have to wait until my next check to get them Lmao, fingers crossed that they will still be available.
Started Napalm Death with Inside The Torn Apart (super record) also like The Code Is Red and Throes Of Joy!
I actually quite enjoy the “groove metal” albums, especially Inside the Torn Apart
Me as well…Diatribes is great, so are Fear Emptiness Despair, Inside The Torn Apart and Words From The Exit Wound…the only thing I don’t like from those albums are the album covers…especially Words From The Exit Wound, that just looks silly
I listen Napalm for almost twenty years now, their peek is Utilitarian, but their discography as a whole is very consistent
I love the EP Mass appeal madness
3.5 for Enemy, wow... Their best album, hands down.
Hell Yeah to Napalm Death. One of the most important bands in all of Metal. Barney Greenway is one of my favorite vocalists. Not to mention many genius past members of this band would create amazing bands like Godflesh, Cathedral, Carcass etc….. My ranking of this band has changed since I commented on POJ and Thralls of Metal’s ranking videos.
Awesome that Harmony Corruption did have John Tardy and Glen Benton on it. And Napalm Death with John Zorn on Everyday Pox❤️❤️
S: Harmony Corruption, Utopia Banished, Utilitarian
A: Enemy of the Music Business, Smear Campaign, Apex Predator-Easy Meat, Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism
B: From Enslavement to Obliteration, Fear Emptiness Despair, The Code is Red, Time Waits for No Slave
C: Scum, Inside the Torn Apart, Order of the Leech
D: Diatribes, Words from the Exit Wound
I agree with so many of these choices, it's hard to choose a favorite Napalm Death album. Carcass, Cathedral, and Godflesh are also incredible bands.
@@mindful2864 Absolutely, Honestly a Godflesh ranking would be Awesome
@@blackwaterrust476 A Godflesh album ranking would be cool. Streetcleaner and Selfless are my favorites.
Who knows, maybe someday...
I've watched the Thralls of Metal's Napalm Death ranking and while the guys were talking about Enemy of the Music Business, Miller did some hilarious humor when he mentioned "Incinerator" and said that he couldn't help but think every time about Insinkerator the garbage disposal!
Apex Predator, hands down the best ND album without a doubt.
These guys are the best grindcore band. They are the only band to write You Suffer. No other band has a fraction of the mental capacity to write a piece remotely on the same level.
day-side?
Order of the leech is my fave
NDs best is an EP, mentally murdered followed by utopia and FETO and Mass Appeal EP
I love Scum. I do think that there are better albums of the same genre because time has gone on. It was a good starting point, and was amazing for it's time. Sorry if that didn't make sense 😂
Smash a single digit is on apex predator not throws of joy
Napalm Death is one of my favorite bands ever, and they have quite a consistent discography. Here's how I'd rank their albums:
16. Diatribes
15. Words from the Exit Wound
14. Order of the Leech
13. Enemy of the Music Business
12. Inside the Torn Apart
11. Fear, Emptiness, Despair
10. Smear Campaign
9. Utopia Banished
8. The Code Is Red... Long Live the Code
7. Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism
6. Apex Predator - Easy Meat
5. Utilitarian
4. Time Waits for No Slave
3. Harmony Corruption
2. Scum
1. From Enslavement to Obliteration
Totally opposite taste in ND albums compared to mine. Harmony Corruption and mid 90's era was the best, while the last two albums could be simply forgotten. Top 3:
1. Harmony Corruption
2. Words From the Exit Wound
3. Diatribes
Clean your language up mate.
fuck no
