You see those three "^"? That means it was directed to Xantern 3 posts up.

Well, it would be easier to just quote the guy then

The vocals clicked with me after the first few songs during my first listen. Call it blasphemous, but I think Nick Holmes' vocals suit the band's old school death metal sound much better than Michael Akerfeldt.

I agree he fits, but I wouldn't say he fits better than Mikael or even Peter. Both of those vocalists matched the sound of their albums very well and I think Nick fits this album too. I would not like him in a more modern sound but he is fine here.

He has a point

No, its one more click. Sometimes we quote sometimes we dont.

I really prefer the older singer, the new one is good but isn't perfect like Mikael IMHO.

 

[nizzon]

Most people do. I have no problem with nicks vocals I just think the songs suck.

So is anyone still listening to this album? I probably havent even listened to it more than 20-30 times.

4 times. MAYBE, just maybe 5.

 

[nizzon]

Yeah I might have exagerated, more like 10-15 times tops.

 

[DarkGift]

i think i've only listened to the entire album once or twice maybe

 

[PowerBlade]

I think I listened to it 5 times maybe. That you guys also aren't still listening to it just kind of proves how boring it was

 

[Belac]

I heard it a few times. I like the dark atmosphere but in the end, even though I don't mind the vocals, a great vocalist would have given the album that extra push to keep me coming back. I would love to hear this sound with a killer growler to really help sell it.

I still listen to their other albums from time to time, but Grand Morbid Funeral probably won't get that many future listens.

 

[PowerBlade]

I just looked on my last.fm. Just curious about comparing it to how much I've heard the other albums

Breeding Death ~90 times.
Nightmares Made Flesh ~50 times.
Resurrection Through Carnage ~45 times.
The Fathomless Mastery ~20 times.
Unblessing the Purity ~10 times.
Grand Morbid Funeral... ~5 times

BD and UTP, and all albums obviously has more spins. But % is about right I guess.
