The Faceless Megathread ("Autotheism" available 08.14.12)

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

The mere fact that songs by The Faceless are getting radio play is a very very bad sign

It was Liquid Metal on Sirius, so it's expected.

 

[Don Vito]

I first heard the Faceless on radio back in 2009.

Oh that makes a lot more sense

Well I've been trying to force myself into liking Autotheism for months now, and I jsut can't do it. The more chances I give it, the worse it sounds each time. Even the most carbon copy rewrite of Planetary Duality would be an infinite improvement over this. Goddamn it blows so fucking hard...

Dear Faceless, please go back to writing metal

Regardless of whether or not you like it how is Autotheism not metal?

The amount of childish anguish in this thread is surprisingly high. I mean, Autotheism was different and maybe not that great, but do you guys have to be so absurd in expressing your distaste?

I absolutely love Autotheism.

Probably because it reeks of Townsend influence and Townsend is my all time favorite...

 

[anomynous]

Apparently not liking something means it's not metal.

 

[NovaReaper]

Apparently not liking something means it's not metal.

indeed it does

 

[gunch]

Maybe Lyle can work on Abhorrent now

Oh wait, that's why he left? YES

 

[NovaReaper]

this is now an Abhorrent thread

 

[anomynous]

I see why you posted that track

 

[anomynous]

Now the Cradle of Faith tour is cancelled because they're having visa issues now

 

[anomynous]

Finally

 

[isispelican]

something is definitely wrong with the audio, love the Burzum shirt!

 

[Wings of Obsidian]

I LOVE THIS MEME!

It kind of reminds me of that horrendous song "A Little Piece of Heaven" of sellouts A7X and a mix of Suffocation with Devin Townsend. I love the the album. I love every album by The Faceless and they are without a doubt on of my top influences in my own music (the influence is kind of blaringly obvious). But anyway, my fanboy moment is over.



Their new music video that came out today is pretty f-ing sick!

 

[Sunyata]

Video is pretty good.
Burzum shirt is upsetting though.

 

[the fuhrer]

I have loved everything from The Faceless, until this video. The song is awesome but I feel the video is just plain cheesy.

 

[froghawk]

Because there's nothing cheesy or cliche about horror carnival music with children singing 'la-la-la' and lyrics quoting Nietzsche?

 

[Black Mamba]

Video kicked ass!
