MP3: Dismember - Override of the overture
I'm kinda bummed out by yesterday's news that the upcoming Entombed/Dismember/Grave tour has been cancelled. Consensus has it that Entombed is very much past their prime, but how can you pass up three of Swedish death-metal's forefathers on one bill? While I know that Entombed will never release another "Left hand path" or "Clandestine", their latest output has still been pretty damn solid, especially considering all the lineup difficulties they've gone through. Anyhow, that's not the band I want to talk about today - this week's Friday mp3 comes from Dismember off their landmark 1991 release "Like an everflowing stream". Entombed may be the band everyone thinks of first when they're talking about Swedish death-metal pioneers, but we cannot forget Dismember. They were just as important when it comes to that famous, instantly recognizable 'Sunlight studios sound.' New bands are still trying to rip it off, but no one can touch the original masters. That guitar tone is so thick, meaty and totally devastating. When I want to hear something heavy, that's what I have in mind.
