macabre may not sound like most death metal bands but i cant think of a band more deserving of the title “death metal.” every song of theirs, for decades, has been about a serial killer or someone being killed. most death metal bands lyrically switch themes occasionally, but never Macabre.

Ok, ok, it’s not death metal! Jeez! :-) Seriously, guess I wouldn’t disagree…I used the term rather loosely in this context, but I also don’t think it’s completely inaccurate.

I’m right there with you Scott. Macabre aren’t what I want out of a death metal band either… except much like Biff I wouldn’t consider them death metal either ;-)

Never heard the words Macabre and death metal mentioned together before…. sounds nothing like death metal at all. However, calling it Manic, is right on the money.

I’m glad the reviewer appreciates Macabre’s talent and skills, but why the heck would he review this album in the first place? It would be like me reviewing an Enya or Paul Winter album. I’d have to acknowledge their musicianship and studio skills, but I can’t stand listening to their music.

Granted it is better to have an honest and objective opinion instead of a raging fan-boy, but you should at least have someone who “gets it.” Macabre is all about the “schtick.”
