I've been playing guitar for about 11 years now; started in high school to impress my then girlfriend, then just fell in love with playing guitar. I formed an old school death metal band in Sep 2016, self-released a demo in Jan 2017, cassette release by a major underground death metal label March 2017 and had my band featured in a online column in Decibel magazine today. That's fuckin all death metal rules thanks guys

I just received our shipment of cassettes tapes from the label but since I've never sold anything physical on bandcamp before I need to go to the post office tomorrow and find out exactly how much it costs to ship em to continental US and Canada before I put them up for sale. Our label has tapes up on their bandcamp and on their website | ||

Most people in the underground prefer to buy something physical to support the band and producing cassettes costs a fair bit less than CD and is about 5-6 times cheaper than vinyl. Exactly this, I also buy cds, cassettes and vinyls (and shirts of the bands) of albums I love, especially from underground bands, buying their stuff is the easiest way to support them so they can continue making the music you love. It makes no sense to keep downloading their stuff. I also go to a lot of shows (another way to support them...) when they come in or near where I live. That's one of the thing my wife loves about quebec, we have a lot of shows from underground bands and she obviously do not really have those things here in seoul except for genres she does not enjoy (she's a hardcore elitist metalhead haha). We would like to go to the maryland deathfest in the future too, do you also attend those kind of festivals/shows? | ||

Feel like I almost never see any metal discussion on TL, think I visited the heavy metal thread once a long time ago but they weren't really into the sort of stuff I'm into. I've mostly been jerking off the new Tomb Mold full length. Ascended Dead and the new Lantern are pretty cool, the latter reminds me a lot of Execration's last album. Hopped on the Eternal Champion/Sumerlands/Demon Bitch bandwagon super late. Been listening to a lot of Obituary since I'm gonna see the Decibel tour next week, I'm super excited to see Horrendous play a long set this time and hoping we get some good cuts off of their first album. Also California Deathfest final lineup is so sickkkkkkk Demolition Hammer/Dead Congregation/Merciless/Massacre/Siege/Pissgrave/Mortem Most BM/DM/Thrash/Doom. Finnish old school death is definitely my favorite amongst death metal styles. | ||
