I tend to listen to chill alternative and indie types of music. My favorite music is the kind that I know every word to and can sing along and also put it on in the back ground to study. This “extreme” metal genre could not be more different from the music on my playlists. The instrumental is aggravating. It gives me a migraine because it feels like a constant banging in my head. And to further this feeling, the so called “vocals” is actually more along the lines of screaming. Some songs, however, have a powerful meaning within the lyrics, but the sounds behind them are so irritating, I can’t even bring myself to try to listen for them. The Quietus article describes the album as “thick and layered, it is both rich and monumental”, but I think it as disturbing and frankly exorbitant.]]> 2017-11-05 22:06:45 UTC https://padlet.com/christine_dyal/d7zfdd0j5v22/wish/203691049 christine_dyal https://padlet.com/christine_dyal/d7zfdd0j5v22/wish/203691063 By the same band Carcass, "Unfit for Human Consumption" is a very disturbing song. The lyrics (which I had to look up because I couldn't understand the screaming) entailed devouring and cadaver dogs. ]]> 2017-11-05 22:06:53 UTC https://padlet.com/christine_dyal/d7zfdd0j5v22/wish/203691063 christine_dyal https://padlet.com/christine_dyal/d7zfdd0j5v22/wish/203691073 This is the song that I wrote my media report on. This is the first song that I heard from this band, and it perfectly depicts what I do not like about this genre as told in my introduction.]]> 2017-11-05 22:07:02 UTC https://padlet.com/christine_dyal/d7zfdd0j5v22/wish/203691073 christine_dyal https://padlet.com/christine_dyal/d7zfdd0j5v22/wish/203735685 "You can call Surgical Steel a comeback album, but it amounts to nothing less than a vicious, glorious recapitulation of their musical cycle; you might call it an extreme music revolution."(http://thequietus.com/articles/13361-carcass-surgical-steel-review)

It was considered a radical change by many fans,which eliminated Steer's deeper vocals and the clinically gory lyrics."
