and notably Justin Broadrick...think it's funny so many idiots credit Bell with 'inventing' the clean/dirty vocal style when Godflesh did it years before

SOANM and Concrete are masterpieces. And yes Burton's vocals are very similar to Napalm Death.

Oooh yeah, grind...because napalm death are so brilliant...I do love soul, their second best in my view, mainly because it is nice and heavy and so different from the rest, but they vastly improved on it on demanufacture, which still contained plenty of rage and aggression (as does Mechanize, their 3rd best)...sounding more like napalm death doesn't make your rage more convincing...Napalm Death never sound particularly angry to me, they just sound shit

SoaNM was actually aggressive, unlike every other album by FF, which all happen sound forced. The grind elements also helped it.

listening to linchpin though it is, though simple, quite groovy...again, like edgecrusher, it's let down by rubbish verses...ace riffs and choruses though

Demanufacture > all...SoaNM was an excellent start but being the heaviest doesn't make it the best... The verses in edgecrusher sounded almost hip hoppy to me, though I know not as much as back the fuck up...It really does sound out of place though, come to think of it I am probably being a bit harsh on obsolete as that is the only duff track on it, whereas Digimortal in comparison is more patchy (even within a song - the chorus parts of linchpin are ace but the rest is awful)

Edgecrusher was co-written with someone else not from this band, that would explain alot why the sound of it is diffirent. Also it got influenced by the gerne " hardcore punk" if you ask me. The only hip-hop-ish song (which is actually called crossover) is Back The Fuck Up.

(obviously it's not really hip hop but it's clearly the approach Burton took with his vocals on it...glad they don't have Christian to influence them in that way anymore as I know he's a big hip hop fan)

Obsolete has plenty of great songs, Shock is a great opener, I have always loved Freedom of Fire, the title track, Resurrection and the mellow track at the end are great too, Edgecrusher is rubbish though, stupid crap hip hop (and I have heard some decent industrial hip hop) with Christian dicking around on a double bass...

yeah...I do really like Moment of Impact, too bad the rest of the album just wasn't in the same vein and lacked the heaviness and rage...should have been a Burton C Bell side project like City of Fire and Ascension of the Watchers

Every album is great, except Transgression of course. I bet when Dino heard that album, he wouldve been laughing his moobs off.

I don't know, for me the tracks on Obsolete sound too similar to each other, especially in the guitar department. The only track that really stands out to me is "Shock". "Edgecrusher" I liked when I was in high school, but when I listen to it now it sounds like an early preview of what was to come on Digimortal, if you catch my drift.

I wish Obsolete were more...perfect...has the potential to be as there are plenty of great tracks on there, but odd ones like Edgedrusher don't do anything for me...first two albums are flawless though, and Mechanize is the best they have done since Demanufacture I think, high hopes for the next album...

Mechanize is awesome, no doubt but I did miss Herrera on it, Gene is amazing but Herrera was part of the "old" FF sound. and that is what i missed on Mechanize.

as for transgression, as has always been the case with the exception of Dog Day Sunrise, the covers are atrocious and pointless, I did like it at first but I think the only track I still like on it is Moment of Impact...
