hmm tough to say. they don’t strike me as your cuppa particularly but the experience of listening to them for the first time is like WO so dunno. they basically have a total lack of melody which you might not be into. just pure chug with shouty man in completely impossible time signature

Hmmm maybe… It is lacking in melody but I do like the intensity.

He’s like a robot.

they play to a click now though don’t they :frowning: slightly spoils the idea of them being inhumanly good

I feel like if you can all concentrate on a click track while performing live and stuff you’re still pretty good, no?

And anyway, it’s not like most bands aren’t reading the count off at least ONE member of the band in any case…

All I recall of this band is the start of a track with inhuman drumming or something that spawned loads of people doing YouTubes of them trying to play along or something?

playing to a click is kind of a skill i guess but the fascination with them for a long time was how insanely tight and robotic they were without it, it was pretty much their deal

I wasn’t aware of that. But still, I dunno man. Give me all the click tracks you want. I still ain’t touching that shit. Unreal

i think it would be amazing to see them live and to hear them drag by a couple bpm or make a mistake :smiley:

I think it’s probably Bleed, the track I posted. It’s an absolutely monstrous pattern. Obzen not their best album imo though. Catch 33 ftw

i think obzen suffers from dodgy modern metal production but there’s some bangers on it

I find the real fun part about watching them live is watching how all the members of the crowd have very different ideas about when they should bang their heads. It’s like the mosh pit is broken.

I always figured it was Obzen but I can’t claim to be an expert. So glad I saw them live last year though, unreal.

Will whack Chaosphere on now

Something really borked about the production on Obzen

dunno m8 it’s hardly Good Nature or something. never noticed it before anyhow.

Nothing

Come on mate choose one lol

Saw them on the catch 33 tour and it was like I imagine being bludgened with a 2x4 for an hour feels like. In a very very good way. So intense,so heavy,so good.
