Dark tranquillity

YES, the dreaded time has come again that i make yet another thread for a band i am currently listening to a lot of. Plus ive never seen a thread for them... so yeah. What do you think of Dark tranquillity? older stuff, newer stuff... what? my personall favorite is skydancer. and i still love the new stuff too. damage done is badass IMO.

i find them really rather boring to be honest.

although the gallery is an exclusion, especially the title track.

Projector is my favourite album. i like the older stuff better, but the last albums (Haven, Damage Done) are not bad either, just a different sound.

you listen to mortician, yet dark tranquillity is boring
that baffles me.


pointless fact:
mortician bore me so much i smashed the cd (domain of death) against my dresser after i really considered the extent to which i fucking hated it, and that people can get credit for such shitty and nearly thoughtless works.

I have only heard Skydancer from them. And it was actually a descent album, imo one of the better gothenburg stuff.

dude, this is not a mortician bashing thread, this is a dark tranquillity query thread.
i like mortician because they are brutal metal and DT is melodic metal (due to boring-ity thing). i dont have to explain why i like something, but i will, mortician is a "fun" band that i dont take seriously, whereas dark tranquillity...well, bores me.

meh.

actually, being my thread, Ill say what i like in it .
And to tell you the truth i sat for 5 minutes thinking of a way to get accross that i wasnt saying that to try and lower you for liking them, with intentions of also getting back at the fact that you find dark tranquillity boring. and all i could come up with was saying "pointless fact" before i typed. and i never asked you to explain.

true. i thought this was agent-orange's thread....i always get you bastards confused for some reason.....

well thanks for not leaping out "m0r71C1aN 5uXXX" etc. and dark tranquillity isnt all that boring, i dont even not like them (like i despise the DEP) there's just something.....i dunno what it is.

admittedly, your mortician vs DT point is a valid one.

yeah, i wasnt trying to bitch at you for liking mortician, its just the only comparison i could come up with at the moment, then i added that other shit just cause of my own personal problem with the band. also, maybe i should know this... but who is DEP???

yeah, i guess i should have known that abbreviation.
i dont like that band either. when i heard them i concluded that they were trying too hard to be technical/unpredictable/whatever and that was enough to throw me off. when i make songs i put time and effort into the transition of each part of a song, i dont just instantly stop a riff and start a new every 10 seconds to be considered "technical".

i really like dark tranquillity, big fan of the last two albums. i like they're style, though i've come to the conclusion if time likes a band it's probably something i either own or would get into as well. but yeah DT is good, i don't find them boring, in fact i moved into DT to get away from straight deathmetal, which gets boring IMO after a while, even though i do still love it

Damage done is quite good as well, same as projector... but it's less good then those other three albums.

Does anyone know how the last song of the "Projector"s album is called?
(song 11) That song kicks ass! I can't find it anywhere.
