| Check this band out.

That's for their latest album; you can stream it. Wait until "Menhir," the first track, kicks in around the 3-minute mark. BRILLIANT!
I met the singer years ago on the MetalReviews.com forum. I even reviewed their early demo EPs here and here. Killer stuff.
I guess you'd label them melodic death metal, but they lean toward the more brutal death side of things when it comes to the vocals. Musically it's pretty progressive.
Anyway, I really dig these guys. Waiting on the new CD to arrive. Can't wait. I know some of you, like mc666, will love this. _________________ "Happy people have no stories" —Therapy? Shock Totem | The Eyesore Times | Getcha Rocks Off   |

| Like a lot of these new melodic death-y bands, the "clean" part sounds much better than the "heavy" parts.
The heavy parts just don't rock enough ... they meander too much.

| rapidshare.com rapidshare.comCanopy_-_During_Day_One__EP_.zip.htmlLink to their debut demo. There's a cool little outro that Dan Swano did on "Symbiotic." I believe he mixed and mastered the album for the band, then added all that stuff on a whim. The band dug it, so it stayed. Pretty cool. The demo isn't as good as their later stuff, but it's still solid. Enjoy! _________________ "Happy people have no stories" —Therapy? Shock Totem | The Eyesore Times | Getcha Rocks Off |

| Let me know if there's any of those "scratchy" noises. When I first started ripping my CDs, I did so on the fastest speed. Those noises are annoying as hell, so I know rip things on the paranoia setting.
I can re-rip it if any tracks are messed up. _________________ "Happy people have no stories" —Therapy? Shock Totem | The Eyesore Times | Getcha Rocks Off |
