Here is a question for some of you here.

I have been listening to a lot of Iced Earth, really enjoying it. However, I am noticing a lot of odd sounds in the songs. Its not artifacts from processing, it sounds like things in the recording themselves. I noticed it on Wolf from Horror Show a few times, I think Cthulhu from a later album has a few that stand out. I keep noticing little background noises, almost like things falling in the studio, or a slight miss hit on the snare hitting the metal.

I listen to plenty of other music and they have no issues, so I know its not my equipment. But yeah, has anyone else noticed bizarre little noises with Iced Earth?
 
Six Feet Under is utter dog shit. That being said, it's funny how comments are disabled-just as they were for their previous album after it was very poorly received. Chris Barnes should just hang it up, but he's one of the biggest cows in metal so he won't.

Yeah, explain to me how from Divine Intervention onwards is not edgelord shit. Not to mention Slayer jumped in the nu-metal bandwagon when it was trendy so beat it.

I just pretend it doesn't exist. I would only listen to their first 3 albums anyways because they are the best.
I guess south of heaven and seasons in the abyss are alright but why would I listen to them when I can listen to show no mercy, hell awaits and reign in blood?

Divine Intervention is a great album. Very atmospheric. Diabolis in Musica was also alright. Truth be told, they were spent by then.

I bought Horror Show on CD like a week or two after it came out, and I eventually noticed a weird popping sound within the first few seconds of Wolf. I thought I might have damaged the disc but never found anything, and it exists in a lot of digital uploads I've heard since then. Could be because Schaffer liked to layer guitars which caused some audio artifacts, and it could be because by all accounts Century Media was just not in the business of giving a shit in those days.
 

Saw them live a couple of years ago. I was never a massive fan of the newer operatic style, but they were great live. A type of band you can enjoy without knowing any of the tunes. (Didn't play this cover)

Also, pretty sure they wrote their own version of the lyrics for this. A feat, knowing how complex the words are. It's basically a spoken poem metered perfectly to the music.
