[Jan 5,2005 4:19am - Terence ""]
Hello everyone, we're looking for a 2nd guitar player for the band. Of course the standard requirements are:
at least a good 5 years of experience on guitar and good confidence while playing live
transportation
A source of steady income
Professional equipment
A professional attitude and dedication to the band
We have some huge things planned for 2005. I'm not just saying that, if I was, I wouldnt have posted it, silly.
We already know we are gay, so if you are gonna sit and post anonymously, like a fag that you are, about how gay we are, we already know. so there.
I hope to hear from someone soon. Serious Inquiries only. Dont ask what happened, you wont hear it from me, and if you have heard it already, its probably not true. Sorry.
Alrighty folks, I hope your new year has started off well, we'll see what happens, hopefully we'll be tearing it up again in full effect soon enough. Take care.
:D The Ascendancy Crew :D

Yeah, just imagine if they could be as original and interesting as Dehumanized. That would be crazy! :thescream:

Dehumanized were pretty original when they came out. Well written songs with riffs that stuck with you, perfect blasting and not overdone. All the slam dm bands out today wish they sounded like something off "Prophecies Foretold"
[Jan 6,2005 11:34am - Joe/NotCommon ""]
yeah, but Ascendancy isn't a slam DM band, thank god
[Jan 6,2005 11:38am - Mike Proteus ""]
Slam DM is great if you listen to the bands who did it right. All the bands i've heard coming out lately have poor recording quality and sub-par songwriting. Plus Dehumanized wasnt slam after slam. Their songs definitely did stand out, I don't know what they sound like now since they re-united.
[Jan 6,2005 11:38am - RustedAngel ""]
Mike Proteus said: All the slam dm bands out today wish they sounded like something off "Prophecies Foretold"
actually, no. We don't wish we sound like anyone. The rest of my band hasn't even heard dehumanized.

First off all, you play DM and haven't even heard Dehumanized? Oooookaaay. Also, when did your band become slam? Sounds like poor mans Severed Savior to me.
[Jan 6,2005 11:41am - AUTOPSY_666 ""]
Their loss.
[Jan 6,2005 11:41am - Joe/NotCommon ""]
I can't come up with anything else, you win this round Dwyer.

Dehumanized are good, but they aren't they most influencial death metal band of all time.
Trey Azagoth plays death metal and never heard a bunch of a death metal bands I asked him about. I'm sure that can be applied to many people. You don't need to know every band in a genre to play the music.
[Jan 6,2005 11:43am - BornSoVile ""]
Dehumanized is awesome. They are a staple of North Eastern Death Metal. Just like Slam is a staple for the North East.
And yes we arn't slam by any means, we don't even have all that many breakdowns.

the new song with the solo in it is awesome, Terence told me the name but I forgot it already.

Ok.. but what's wrong with knowing about the "good" bands? Dehumanized made Morbid Angel obsolete, as have many DM bands. If people who listen to a certain style, claim to be a fan, and they don't have any (decent) knowledge of the genre and the good bands, I don't know what to say to that... I dont care about KvLt status or how obscure a band is. If the band is good, that's what matters to me anyway.

maybe some people don't like dehumanized, who knows dude? that entire paragraph is purely your opinion. You'd should probably know that a lot of musicians play what they feel with not many influences at all. I myself listen to quite a bit of stuff so I have influence. A couple members of my band live way the fuck up in NH and don't have the internet so they have limited access to discover new bands. I have been showing them more underground death metal bands though. You just said if a band is good, that's all that matters....exactly...who cares what they listen too.
[Jan 6,2005 11:54am - BornSoVile ""]
The new song is called Dead Wake. Mike and I rearranged the progression and structure underneath that solo. Glad you like it.
[Jan 6,2005 11:56am - Joe/NotCommon ""]
You better be glad I like it, all bands should make it their goal to impress me, since I am the center of the universe.
[Jan 6,2005 11:59am - BornSoVile ""]
I'm not only glad you like it, I am relieved, tis an honor to enchant the center of the universe.

Haha, whatever you say guy.... Also, someone who would take Morbid Angel over Dehumanized shouldn't consider anything dumb, except their taste in bands.

Yeah so Ascendancy is looking for a 2nd Guitarist, not pointless dehumanized vs. morbid angel debates, take it up somewhere else please.

wow this thread turned stupid real quick ...why don't you make your own dehumanized VS. Morbid Angel thread ...PS- I hope Ascendancy finds someone soon to fill Mike's shoes
[Jan 6,2005 2:48pm - Kalopsia ""]
wow and i didn't even have anything to do with the whole Dehumanized argument. maybe i will make it's own thread just for kicks.

So are we ever going to know why Mike is gone or will it remain a secret forever?
[Jan 6,2005 3:05pm - Kalopsia ""]
i don't think they'll talk retzam
[Jan 7,2005 3:01pm - BornSoVile ""]
Anyone?
Retzam, it's not a secret, some people know. Most people have one side of the story unfortunately. You'll probably hear a snowballed reason in the comming weeks I bet which is just fabricated through talk.
[Jan 7,2005 3:10pm - succubus ""]
if people want to know..ask him directly i would say..
like josh said...there are 3 sides to a story...yours, myne and the truth..
i.e. everyone will give their own spin to why
why not just say 'creative differences'?
then again..who the hell am i
[Jan 7,2005 3:25pm - Todd(bombshelter) ""]
"Truth?,You can't handle the truth."
[Jan 7,2005 3:35pm - BornSoVile ""]
Because it wasn't creative differences at all. Carina, I'm sorry but you were very misinformed.

i was trying to be PC

Hey what's up. I'm a 21 year old guitarist from Worcester, ma interested in seeing what's up with you guys. I have been playing for 11 years, and have been playing in bands, seriously, for the last 7 years. The project I have been doing hasn't been going so well and I'm interested in checking out what else there is. I have professional equipment, digital recording gear, transportation, a steady job, unflinching dedication to my art, tattoos, piercings, long hair, and some seriously sick chops. If you're down let me know. - Sam Kirsch chk1@charter.net
