While everyone was having fun and enjoying New Year ’s Day, I was indulged in my own kind of fun. Usually on every New Year’s Day I visit Budhanilkantha temple and this time around I did not. I tried to change the way I welcome a new year. I decided to listen to songs for the whole day without going anywhere outside as it was an off day and I couldn’t figure anything else than to listen to music.
The first one I started with was the newest album I had in my collection and I will be talking about that very album only. It was the greatest hits of Six Feet Under. I did not find it as hard as other death metal bands. The whole album consists of song without any double bass in drum which is sad to me. The guitar riffs are great and so is the vocal and the only thing that lacked in this album was songs with double bass drumming. The lyrics are good and the one called “Amerika the brutal” shows a lot of frustration and anger against America’s current policies of invading Afghanistan and Iraq. The other one called “Anti police” is also a great one. The one I liked the most is called “Rock N Roll ain’t noise pollution”, however I am not sure if it’s a covered version or was it Six Feet Under’s original composition because I have heard ACDC sung it before. Nevertheless this number is great and the growling vocal suits the song and melody to the maximum.
I did not like this album very much but it’s worth listening after all Six Feet Under is one of the most popular bands in their genre.
