Yep, washed up riffs all over again. Plus, Angela (i think that's her name) needs to go.Greg wrote:Arch Enemy isn't metalcore but damned if they aren't teetering on the brink here lately.
The rest of the non-Hate Eternal bands are steeped in metalcore-ness unfortunately.
5/4 - HATE ETERNAL
Moderators: Brian, Metalfreak, MS_39455, AtlantaMetal Staff
Every album they've put out since Angela joined the band has been all downhill.
I can listen to Black Earth without skipping a single track, and the rest of them with the dude vocalist are amazing albums as well. Everything from Wages on has been structured like a pop album - there are like 3 good singles on each one and the rest is filler garbage.

Drummer DEREK RODDY Quits HATE ETERNAL
Drummer Derek Roddy has announced his departure from HATE ETERNAL. Roddy's official statement on the matter reads as follows:
"Real-life situations have forced me to resign as a member of HATE ETERNAL. I can on longer afford the expenses of touring. I have put MUCH thought into this for the last several years and kept coming to this conclusion. I must be able to afford the quality of life that I enjoy, and thus far... touring in extreme bands has not allowed me to do anything other than go into a financial hole. Every tour has put me in finanancial burden. Now, I'm not complaining (because I never expected to 'make it' playing metal), but I cannot continue to pay to do it either!!! Too expensive. Besides, I value the scene and would rather GIVE my music away than be insulted at the end of the year with a $600.00 royalty check!!!! This in NO WAY means I won't be recording and releasing extreme music. In fact, you will hear more from me (as I now have the freedom to do what I want when I want.)
"I wish HATE ETERNAL the best of luck."
HATE ETERNAL will be teaming up with ARCH ENEMY, CHIMAIRA, NEVERMORE and GOD FORBID for a North American tour beginning in early April. A replacement drummer has yet to be announced.

Blah, fuck. I wanted to see that fucker.

Wait a second, when did Nevermore get added to the bill? This show might be worth going to after all.Strangler wrote:

Fuck it, Dude, let's go bowling.
They're not coming to Atlanta. Only few shows I think.ProstheticHead12 wrote:Wait a second, when did Nevermore get added to the bill? This show might be worth going to after all.Strangler wrote:

Looks like they got Kevin Talley to sit in for them, which makes this the 78th band he's now played drums for if I'm counting right.

from Blabbermouth:
BLABBERMOUTH.NET can reveal that Floridian extreme metallers HATE ETERNAL have enlisted drummer Kevin Talley (CHIMAIRA, DYING FETUS, MISERY INDEX) to replace Derek Roddy on their upcoming North American tour with CHIMAIRA, ARCH ENEMY and NEVERMORE (as well as GOD FORBID later in the trek).
Roddy recenty announced his departure from HATE ETERNAL, citing "real-life situations" as the reason for his exit. "Touring in extreme bands has not allowed me to do anything other than go into a financial hole," he explained. "Every tour has put me in finanancial burden.

Kevin Talley last month filled in for THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER drummer Pierre Langlois for several dates after Langlois was denied entry to the U.S. from his native Canada.
HATE ETERNAL's North American tour with CHIMAIRA, ARCH ENEMY and NEVERMORE is scheduled to kick off April 3 at the Gothic Theater in Denver, Colorado.

I could never get into Black Earth personally. I think I agree with you on Wages of Sin. There's like 4 songs on there I really like, and the rest I can never remember. I thought Anthems of Rebellion was just horrible. And I like how Burning Bridges is essentially cock rock.Greg wrote:Every album they've put out since Angela joined the band has been all downhill.

I guess I like Black Earth the best because it's the heaviest of their albums from start to finish, when there was still a brief bit of Heartwork-era Carcass in the tone of the music. And you're totally right about Burning Bridges, but there are some ridiculously good riffs on that album.ratanda wrote: I could never get into Black Earth personally.

The stuff they're doing is way too forumlaic and contrived now, but I guess they're angling for album sales now instead of leaving behind a legacy of good music. What they're doing now is all over MTV2, Ozzfest, etc. though, so I guess I can't blame them for finding a way to make money out of being in a metal band.
wow, thats a huge step down in talent.Strangler wrote:That dude is a beast. I can't wait to see this.Greg wrote:Looks like they got Kevin Talley to sit in for them, which makes this the 78th band he's now played drums for if I'm counting right.
