DarkPoetry -|- Thorn -|- I love Cannibal Corpse

I love Cannibal Corpse

An explosive concussion
Of guitars
Bass
And drums
Crashes into me like a pair of hammers against each side of my head
And then
The most brutal voice I have ever heard
Joins this sonic chaos
He does not snarl as some Satanic demon
Nor scream like a "hardcore" twenty-something in tight pants
No
His voice is a roar
A roar that conjures the mental image of a man
Who would rip you apart
With his bare hands
And never think twice about it

He bellows his desire to
MAKE THEM SUFFER
Over and over again

I am in shock
And instantly addicted
To this
Pure
Unbridled
Brutality

The sound from my stereo pummels me
With a three-minute wall
Of hate
Sadism
Torture
Brutal
Fucking
Aggression

The mayhem stops
As suddenly as it started
And I am left with a feeling
That I imagine to be not unlike
Having my brains bashed out
With a cinderblock

I relate to this write; I recently likened death metal (especially the more brutal version of it) to "taking a power drill to your temple as your face is smashed into a brick wall at fifty miles and hour." However; CC is alright. Try some Dying Fetus and Cryptopsy, yes?

I love them too. Even though I got punched in the face in their moshpit.

I have to be honest, I'm not as big a fan of death metal as I used to be. But I can still listen to corpse and morbid angel. Those two bands are special :D This helped me remember what I loved about them. Write on.

I relate to this poem...there are some metal singers whose guttural utterances make my heart pound and send shivers up my spine. How brilliantly you translated that feeling.

I saw them in concert, and the guitarist signed a CD for me =) He asked me if I was into metal, and I said no, more goth, and he said Oh like Rammstein? lol =) They were very sweet! ~V.

This is so fucking amazing!!!! I love the way you describe listening to them. It's strange how sometimes we find the most shocking things to be addictive. Rock on!!!!
