| | [No title] |
| | Downtuned bass is there driving the song and providing the backbone but never really takes a huge presence in the music, except for the hidden track in which it provides a groove heavy hip hop style bassline. | | | Drums have a somewhat dampened and downtuned sound and are very closely integrated with the dynamics of the guitar and vocals making for a crushing wall of sonic fury that vigorously entrances the listener. | | | One thing that vividly sticks out is that the band isn't afraid to experiment, there's tribal percussion elements at play, turntables make guest appearances on a few tracks, all while the songs proceed forward constantly moving and displaying a rather wide avenue of variety. |

| | Gothic metal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The deep vocal baritones of Rozz Williams and Valor Kand, the downtuned bass guitars and eerie synths made a strong impression on many bands that would form later, including those who experimented with other metal influences. | | | In the 1990s, a group of young bands in Northern England borrowed from the early gothic metal sound of the 1980s and incorporated it with the slow, downtuned guitar dirges of Black Sabbath. | | | Celtic Frost - although considered by many as an early black metal band - also played an early role for their "gothic-sounding" atmospherics. |

| | Death Metal- DEFINED |
| | Vocals here are the same as normal Death metal and guitars are often just as distorted and downtuned, but the music has more of a discernable melody. | | | The music is often difficult for an uninitiated listener to appreciate because of the extreme distortion and wall of sound. | | | Guitars are downtuned to a rumbling wave of sound. |

| | Max Soren’s music is rooted in the loud, heavy, downtuned, slow dredge of bands like The Melvins and Black Sabbath, but obscured through blown speakers and miles of unraveled cassette tape. | | | The discerning ear can trace his sounds back to the above groups, but the result can more easily be compared to early Swans, Low, and of course even some of Silber’s own. |

| | How it Ends- Reviews |
| | Only eccentuating the downtuned, gritty heaviness is a rich, but not overproduced recording quality, and some really grim lyrics. | | | How It Ends' musical formula is nothing out of the ordinary; the guitars are chunky, heavily distorted, and sound like they're downtuned to drop Q, the drum parts are mid-paced, driving, and packed with pummeling double bass kicks, and the thunderous bass parts create a solid backbone. | | | The vocals, too, don't offer anything incredibly original, but are solid and fitting, nonetheless. |

| | The drums and vocals are very dry and a bit muffled, but the downtuned guitars are on a par with Machine Head and far better than the best Sepultura (and a great many black metal albums currently released by real labels). | | | The singer sings a little, threatens a bit, and grumble-grunt-scream-screeches a lot, which makes me wish the band had spent more time on the vocals (melodies and technique) to bring them to the level of the instrumentalists. | | | The songs go from high-speed black metal riffing to open-string ambient noise a la Tool to downtuned Pantera bludgeoning and back within one song. |

| | Since the vocals are not understandable, and no lyrics were included in this promotional cd, I have no clue what the lyrics are about, although I have a feeling from the band name and song titles, that they are typical of this scene. | | | Got this as part of the double disc with Mortification's "Scrolls of the Megilloth." Like Scrolls, "False" is heavy downtuned death metal with low gutteral vocals. | | | On top of heavily downtuned guitars, there are some nice classic metal soloing. |

| | Even the fast songs seem caked in an oil-thick production, and guitars are almost ludicrously downtuned, Billy Graziadei and Evan Seinfeld's vocals sounding like they were recorded on a cassette deck with low batteries. | | | It's a welcome change from the desperate parade of guest stars and the goofy, comic vibe of some of the shit on Uncivilization (I'm still surprised none of that album's songs ended up as WWE entrance themes) - but there seems to be a bit of an identity crisis going on here. | | | Knocked out a mere year after the release of 2001's Uncivilization (one of that year's many records buried by its September 11 release date), New York's long-in-the-tooth hardcore vets bound back with this short, bleak, downtuned, downright feral slab of sludge. |

| | Vampire Magazine - Putrefied |
| | Opening song ‘Skull tortured’ is my favorite, and the other songs follow in descending order, as I’m of the opinion that the lack of variation and the the slightly muffled production result in the fact that it’s not easy to stay focused for the full album. | | | Yet, this may seem as if I actually had a hard time listening, but the opposite is ofcourse the case, for I had and have a good time listening this stuff, but it just has some minor flaws. | | | On stage Putrefied is good for half an hour unrelenting ‘sick, downtuned us-style’, and on disc..on disc Putrefied does exactly the same. |

| | Aside from the mediocre lyrics, "Hell Or High Water" is a decent listen, leaving the listener feeling better than they did beforehand. | | | Philadelphia's Sugar Daddie has a sound unlike most other bands; a gritty combination of gruff vocals, simple, distorted and downtuned guitar parts, and a percussive section that provides the crunch. | | | I don't see myself listening to this record often, but it might have its sliver of play in the future. |

| | Similarly, the way the band used heavy, downtuned chords and dubbed-out clouds of harmonically-enhanced feedback gave their music a melancholic edge that worked against the anger of the rest of their songs. | | | It was a remarkable song by an otherwise unremarkable band that coupled a strong affinity for indie pop with a heavy low end and downtuned metal guitars. | | | I must have listened to that song hundreds of times over a couple months, and I was frustrated by the complete inadequacy of the rest of Nemo's songs. |

| | Death metal biography .ms |
| | Most bands of this genre use downtuned guitars (usually utilising two), which play both rhythm and lead guitar parts, a downtuned bass guitar, a double bass drum set, and a vocalist who uses the death grunt vocal style. | | | Death metal is clearly an outgrowth of heavy metal, but the full story is complex and interesting, and is the subject of some debate among fans and musicians. | | | Death Metal is known for very abrupt tempo and count/time signature changes, and extremely fast and complex double bass drumwork. |
