I met Gus Rios in the late 90's. He was in a band with a friend of mine called, Turned to Stone. They were really good. One day after practice, I was talking to Gus about Slayer. He proceeded to play the first 5 songs off of Slayer South of Heaven on the drums to perfection. It was like listening to a live performance. Gus is really talented.

It was spoken to me that the music takes repeats within the history.. And I’ve listened to this interview over and over again.. And I lived through the same thing by myself.. I agree with Gus, hands down

I totally agree with Gus that deathmetal should not be about fashion and while there are many "fashion" death metal/metalcore/deathcore bands today, The Black Dahlia Murder definitely isn't one. They are all about attitude and tight performance with great catchy songwriting!

Wow he shares the same views as i do about the metal genre. I'm 40 years old & grew up with Canadian metal bands like Anvil,Annihilator,Sacrifice,Monster Voodoo Machine,Killer Dwarfs,Razor,Quo Vadis,Lesser Known,Exciter,Neuritis. But Canada has some new metal bands kicking ass as well like 3 Inches Of Blood,Cancer Bats,Augury,Thine Eyes Bleed,Bison B.C.,Baptized In Blood,Fatality,Mutual Execution.

The stuff that Gus & I grew up with was the future,Megadeth,Slayer,Anthrax,Overkill,Exodus,Testament,KreatoR ,they were the future that set the standard for these newer bands like The Black Dahlia Murder,White Chapel,Trivium,Warbringer & so on.If it wasn't for those older bands their wouldn't be those newer bands.I still dug into the older stuff like Black Sabbath,KISS,Alice Cooper,Jimi Hendrix,Motorhead,CCR,Steppin Wolf ,Most of todays kids don't respect that older genre & where it came from.

I don't really see how the "don't respect" the older genres. And Slayer and all of those bands you mentioned didn;t grow up much on Hendrix etc, they were mostly in punk bands like GBH, Verbal Abuse etc. I can't remember any metalhead of my age (past 30's) to be listening to that stuff. It was all about power/speed/thrash/death metal only cos eveything else was "boring and gay". Well, that's natural, I don't see why a kid should listen to Malevolent Creation etc only because they paved the way

You know it sucks that Gus even has to mention the fact that the metal core bands are gaining more popularity and exposer than the old school guys. Back in the day pre myspace id imagine that these guys had to do so much hard work to get to where they are at now and that hard work is being overlooked and depreciated by this hardcore scene, which in turn is gaining insane amounts of exposer for the shit Gus was talking about, with the fashion and trendy characteristics these bands have that sell

Music changes all the time, traditional Heavy Metal and Thrash have gone underground (minus the recent Thrash Metal revival). So did Black Metal, remember mid 90's? When it was the most popular thing ever? Unfortunately for us, the Death metal fans, Death Metal has gone fully underground as well. That's life in music. And I don't care about that, I'm still into the same shit, went to see Cryptopsy the other day

Do whatever you can, help a brotha out if you can, with a place, buying a shirt, get 'em a drink, what the fuck ever. Do something.

I am a huge Death Metal fan for the last 15 years. But I don't agree with these views. As Gus says, when he was a kid he listened to Thrash which was the music from his era. He didn't have to dig on the older stuff (e.g. Uriah Heep and Jethro Tull), he was listening to the music of his "days". I don't see why it is bad for today's kids to listen to the music of "their age" not caring about the past. They do the exact same thing as he did.

Funny that all the newer DM bands aren't really DM. It's deathcore stuff. It's VERY different to me as an old-schooler. I don't listen to ANY of that newer crap unless it's pure friggin' deathmetal. I saw black dalhia murder open for King Diamond once. Absolutely terrible to me. But KD is the KING!

I can see some death metal bands playing until their 50's & maybe 60's? If they stay in shape etc but the whole band will have to stay in shape & that's a hard thing to do while touring & even 1 guy falls off the ship the band will be screwed lol.But i could see Cannibal Corpse playing into their 50's because all those members seem to be relatively Healthy & in a good frame of mind.They seem to have slowed down on the partying mind you corpse grinder gives it still,but other than that their fine

Starting with what he says was a cassette tape that was white with no band name on it and he didn't even care for 5 years and know what band it was because he said it was just about the music. That's fine. That a nice thought but too should not be a sole factor in not looking into a bands identity. I have a feeling that the real reason it took him 5years to learn the bands name/track names was because so few people even listened to death metal at that time. well if it's just about the music why wouldn't you find out what the band's name is so you can fucking buy more of their stuff? Secondly, if you're having a hard time finding new death metal that's any good you're an idiot you need to do a search on youtube and look up bands like Born of Osiris, The Black Dahlia Murder, betraying the martyrs I mean the list goes on and on and on and yeah they may look good but they play good music. Why can't you have both at the same time? You can and the reason he also admits that when he was getting into death metal the internet didn't exist and that you didn't even have CD though had cassettes. That's why he never saw what they were wearing because no one was taking music videos of these bands it's not because it didn't matter it was just a matter of exposure now we have HD you know when we have the benefit of technology and all those things play a part and why were able to see and hear new metal the purpose of metal has not changed its just we can see them now.

what does "trendy" mean? they're a new movement, just like our Death Metal movement came up around 1991-2. This is bullshit, it;s like saying back in the 80's "it's a shame kids dont listen to Uriah Heep and get stuck with this trend of thrash with bands like Slayer, Metallica etc". We need to understand that popularity in music constantly changes. We love this old stuff but this doesnt mean that everyone should do as well. Personally, I was disappointed with Gus's statement on this.

I don't disagree. What I don't like is the fact that us, metalheads, we are the only music audience that bashes and hammers against other genres. "Whitechapel are pussies, Suicide Silence are gay" etc. Personally, my first band was Candlemass, then Annihilator, Slayer and then most of thrash and death metal. I never liked traditional Heavy Metal and never will (possibly). I do respect it though but do I have to go to HM gigs and buy CD's? I don't think so... it's not my thing.

Deathcore, same shit different name, and I use those insults not based on their appearance but on their SOUND. E.g. Some of the fellas from those bands look hetero as fuck with their beards (TBDM) but they sound like screaming little girls, and they're just trend crap that will fade in time, MC have been going on for years, their sound is rawer, heavier, more brutal, than any of that screamo/breakdown crap. PS. You never mentioned Decapitated (I love those guys).
