And also try Amorphis. :)

And Heavy Metal with Celloes: Apocalyptica.

Most Finnish people love Metal. It's about 40-50% of our youth, that choose metal over other musical genres.

EDIT: But this is a real metal fan:

[Zed]

I'm mostly into death metal, but I've been known to dabble in black, thrash, blackened death (Behemoth, Arghoslent ftw), progressive and even power metal! None of that -core shit though. Not really my bag, with the screaming and whining. I'll take a good growl over a pig squeal any day of the week. Oh! And folk metal. Gotta love it.

I like Decapitated, Vader, Behemoth, Hate Eternal, Nile, Thyrfing, DEATH, Gojira, Emperor, Entombed, Finntroll, Negura Bunget, Nevermore (Jeff Loomis is among the best), Psycroptic, Quo Vadis, Opeth (yes, even the soft shit), Vital Remains...

And the list goes on. Fuckin love metal.

[koddak99]

Deicide , Cannible Corpse , Mayhem (My Fravorate) , Gorgoroth , Gojira, Emperor ,Negura Bunget , Entombed, DethKlok (LOL) and i could go on and on and on , but yea i mostly into death/black metal.

Watch This xD HAPPY ANTI CHRISTMAS!

Bolded aren't Metal, Mindfreak's a show and Roadrunner is a label. Wtf is this shit? /facepalm

I have a fuck ton of Metal. Haven't listened to much lately, have been in favor of Indie and Hip-Hop and a tiny bit of Punk and Folk and various other things. I know a lot about Black Metal, like... a ton.

My last.fm (http://www.last.fm/user/FaultyClockwork) displays some Metal, though you'll have to go to the Overall top artists tab to see it, haven't been listening to much Metal lately as I've said. My old charts (http://img70.imageshack.us/img70/2031/oldtopartistslx1.png) were pretty Metal (you can reset them).

more of a ska/metal/black metalish band but, anyone heard Star Fucking Hipsters yet? Its Stza's (choking victim, leftover crack) new band. Pretty good.

Stza's music is pretty badass. No Gods, No Managers and Fuck World Trade are two of my favorite albums. I'll listen to it.

[dethklok]

what are you talking about Mindfreak aka criss angel is a singer too and i love roadrunner label bands tho! and those you listed in bold they are metal too Nu specific and new wave of american heavy metal aka metalcore and industrial metal, soulfy is not metal max cavalera plays pop ok you know better

[SCE_Dantalion]

the ones for the most part that you highlighted on dethklok's list are nu-metal well when they came out they were part of that musical wave.

[SlainPwner666]

Mindfreak aka criss angel
Yea, what the hell with the levitation? Thats some cool shit

[Girls Are Pretty]

what are you talking about Mindfreak aka criss angel is a singer too and i love roadrunner label bands tho! and those you listed in bold they are metal too Nu specific and new wave of american heavy metal aka metalcore and industrial metal, soulfy is not metal max cavalera plays pop ok you know better

Mindfreak is the name of the show and you listed both Mindfreak and Criss Angel. Not to mention he plays Punk. Roadrunner is also one of the failest record labels in the history of "extreme" music. Best label evar is Elephant 6, but they're an Indie label, so whatever.

Nu-Metal is not Metal. The "Metal" in the name is a misnomer. If anything the genre should be called Nu-"Metal". This guy I know, Carl, from another forum calls Nu-Metal "Aggressive Rock" and that's a far more appropriate tag for the music. It's just Rock music with particularly down tuned guitars. It's also very bad.

Also Metalcore is not the "New Wave of American Heavy Metal". Metalcore exists world wide and has been around since the 90s. It's just a mix of Metal and Hardcore, or it's supposed to be. Most of the time Metalcore is basically Metal/Punk lite and has nothing to do with Metal at all, there's so little Metal in it. It's also generally very bad and is largely a pox that defiles the names of the Metal and Hardcore Punk genres. It's a load of assholes playing generic chugging riffs in identical song structures and yelling over it about killing people and how their girlfriend dumped them. It's like a pussified lyrically version of Death Metal and real Emo (as in, Emotive Hardcore Punk).

Industrial Metal is also arguably not a genre. I've heard people describe Red Harvest, Godflesh and Head of David as Industrial Metal but I'm skeptical. I don't really listen to those bands so I can't give an opinion anyway and am way too lazy to hop on youtube and check. lolz

[luckyhazmat]

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned Necrophagist yet. Some of the best technical death metal I've heard.

Asides from them, most of the bands I like have already been mentioned.
(Behemoth, Nile, Death, etc.)

[FaceGrater]

MESHUGGAH

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qc98u-eGzlc

and this one too

[smoresforbrawl]

Stza's music is pretty badass. No Gods, No Managers and Fuck World Trade are two of my favorite albums. I'll listen to it.

Mine too! My favorite song by CV/LC is either You Outta Die and One Dead Cop(acoustic)

Star Fucking Hipsters is kinda different but Immigrants and Hypocrites is the shit.

Have you listened to Crass(by no means am I implying that Crass is metal so nobody go shitting your pants)?

[Girls Are Pretty]

I'm listening to the Meshuggah song "Bleed" and I'm not sure how I feel about it...

Mine too! My favorite song by CV/LC is either You Outta Die and One Dead Cop(acoustic)

Star Fucking Hipsters is kinda different but Immigrants and Hypocrites is the shit.

My fav CV songs are prolly "500 Channels", "Crack Rock Steady" and "Fuck America". Fav LC songs are "Burn Them Prisons", "Gang Control" and "One Dead Cop", but every song on those albums is great.

We have almost the same exact taste in Stza music, hahaha. What kind of punk are you into?

So have you listened to Crass (I edited that question in a little late on my last post so you might have not seen it)?

[Girls Are Pretty]

I don't listen to much Punk. :( Really just a ton of LC and CV. As far as genres in general I like Hardcore, Punk, sorta Ska Punk, Grindcore... so I'm basically cool with most genres of Punk I've heard. I'm a huge fan of Refused's The Shape of Punk to Come. If you're very familiar with Punk, I'd be happy for suggestions.

[Bayside]

also dont forget pantera,sepultura,superjoint ritual,damageplan,nailbomb,CARCASS,coal chamber,burn the priest and also head from ex-korn :)
, Lamb Of God

I'd just like to point out that Burn the Priest and Lamb of God are the same thing. They used to be called Burn the Priest before they had a singer, then they changed their name.

But yes, I do enjoy metal music.... I listen to virtually every type of music though.

[arsis]

I'd just like to point out that Burn the Priest and Lamb of God are the same thing. They used to be called Burn the Priest before they had a singer, then they changed their name.
Steve Austin was the original singer of Burn the Priest, then Randy Blythe took over. They didn't change the name because they got a singer, there always was a singer...
Randy was in the lineup during the name change.

[smoresforbrawl]

I'd be happy for suggestions.


A good Sampler is Short Music For Short People, there are some great songs on there, but also some really bad songs

Off the top of my head in no order

The Misfits ( you probably know of them, had to put them on here just in case)
The Vandals (if you like weird but good music check out the Shingo Japanese remix, its one of my favorite cds)
Crass (the best lyrics, arguably the worst or best music)
Fifteen (the cd "lucky" or anything before that cd, the rest is crap)
Dead Kennedys (again same thing with the Misfits)
Subhumans (the uk band, i haven't heard the canadian one)
Black Flag

Grand Buffet
Mr. Lif

[Dorito Burrito]

TENACIOUS D!!!

[aaron123]

I really loved Screaming for Vengeance album by Judas Priest. I need to look more into them.

Sorry if that's not "metal" enough. ;)

[Girls Are Pretty]

Already familiar with Black Flag but the rest I have not listened to. Thanks. :D

[munkeybanana]

The black dahlia murder.

[Girls Are Pretty]

These are metal bands right?

They're Punk.

[Zed]

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned Necrophagist yet. Some of the best technical death metal I've heard.

Check out Psycroptic. They're kinda like Necrophagist, but with one guitarist and a lot more flow in the song structure.

[smoresforbrawl]

These are metal bands right?

thanks captain obvious, you're right I should make a new topic so me and Girls Are Pretty could post 3 replys. Or we could just change the subject to music, or general, here I'll start a new topic for your topic.

new topic could be " SlainPwner666 - why does he pwn slains"

I'll start

Cause SlainPwner666 hates slains and feels he must pwn them.

p.s. 666

[SlainPwner666]

dude, pop a pill

I just asked because I was looking for some new bands to expand my aresenal and meet fellow metal fans. They didnt sound like metal, so I asked.

Now, kindly go fuck yourself

[SlainPwner666]

They're Punk.
OK. I'll have to check them out. Who knows?

[smoresforbrawl]

why so mad, I was just joking. I thought you were pissed because at the top of the post was a quote of Girls Are Pretty asking for good punk bands, I thought you saw that. Sorry, I would edit out but if I did people would think you were talking to yourself.
p.s. Leftover Crack is a good metalish] band, you might like them

[SlainPwner666]

sry. Just a little riled. Been a long day

[Infest0125]

All That Remains, old Avenged Sevenfold, Slipknot, In Flames, Atreyu.

Favorite metal stuff even though it may not be 100% metal.

[SlainPwner666]

thats OK. Long as its even remotely metal, I'll give it a whirl. I listen to all that remains on a daily basis actually. Believe me, it's metal

[smoresforbrawl]

has anyone else read "lords of chaos : the bloody rise and fall of the satanic metal underground" I think thats what its called. I did a book report on it when I was in 10th grade (I got an F for not following the format and quotes with sexual content and bad language).

[SlainPwner666]

Your teacher was a bitch? No I havn't read it, I'll have to give it a go. But, it sounds like one of those books for mothers that say that metal is devil music and you'll go to hell forever just for listening to it. I listen to metal because I like how it sounds. And most songs have alot of meaning. [I'm just gonna use my fav band chimaira for an example.] The song "The Flame, is a song where a man molests his own daughter, and he goes to get revenge. Black heart, is about his personal depression, and how those he love saved him from his own monsters inside. There a great band.

[XViper1534]

I like metal, but my favorite band is AC/DC.

[Girls Are Pretty]

I read it. It's alright, it sometimes gets a bit... metaphysically weird. The guy who wrote it makes good music (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6Iv8p_JyYE), however.

To be blunt, I think a lot of stuff mentioned here isn't very good. Here are some suggestions:

Aborym (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5VcramWqI8) (Industrial Black Metal)
Acid Bath (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfmx4SyDoXs) (very ecclectic Sludge Doom band with sick lyrics)
Amesoeurs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0R46beoBDBo) (Post-Rock/Post-Punk/Black Metal, very romantic)
Ancient Rites (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifLtqiXoVEI) (Black/Folk style stuff with a lot of lyrics related to history and mythology)
...And Oceans (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LronHxxGti8&feature=related) (Industrial Post-Black Metal)
Artillery (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAROgPaz7z0) (best Thrash Metal album ever)
The Axis of Perdition (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqRZUzjaz9g) (Dark Ambient/Industrial Black Metal, incredibly dark and disturbing, has Silent Hill inspired lyrics)
Bathory (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0YGZj10ww4) (basically invented Black and Viking Metal)
Belphegor (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2KcFmA5AzM) (amazing Black/Death Metal)
Blind Guardian (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0TX0Q1s6sU) (Power Metal kings)
Blood Red Throne (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Eo0Wu1c5mQ) (one of my fav Death bands, done by Tchort, the guy in Green Carnation and Carpathian Forest)
Carnival in Coal (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoOUjDvY5Ls&feature=related) (goofy Avant-Garde Grind band)
Carpathian Forest (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWRSY7l1RKU) (Punk influenced Black Metal)
Cor Scorpii (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vS6r2iW1m1c) (post-Windir BM band)
Darkthrone (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBwu83RR6ZU) (they define simplistic BM, their recent stuff is very Punkish)
Devin Townsend (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2n45Sutwig) (Prog Metal with a good sense of humor)
Dezperadoz (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huS7lYa3gBQ) (Wild West Thrash)
Diablo Swing Orchestra (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad-l54T_kYY) (Avant-Garde Metal with an opera singer)
Disarmonia Mundi (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYgVtN-rWiA) (Gothenburg + Electronica)

OK I'M TIRED

I can suggest more later.

[tp500]

No Between the Buried and Me!? Insanity.

[Girls Are Pretty]

I don't listen to them enough to feel confident in posting them and knowing what I'm talking about. lol

Saw 'em live though. With The Red Chord and Cephalic Carnage. Was great.

[ShaneInFlames]

Blood Red Throne

Got 'em, they are pretty mad.

Girls Are Pretty, most of your suggested bands are already on my p.c.

Try out Trollheims Grott if you haven't already ;)

From melodic to brutal and technical.

[Girls Are Pretty]

Spiral Archirtect (Not as heavy, but still insane)

Their bassist is fantastic. He played on Ihsahn's most recent album. Also, I saw Symphony X live. They're great. They played "The Odyssey" in its entirety as an encore. \m/

[Puscifer]

Tool, A Perfect Circle, Puscifer, Isis, Deftones, Jesu, Pelican, Will Haven, Red Sparowes, Old Man Gloom, Medes, Necro Deathmort.

thats all.

[SlainPwner666]

anybody heard of sonic syndicate? Their a small band, but I like some of their songs. However, listen to either soulstone splinter, or enhance my nightmare, because their other songs are kinda soft

[arsis]

Abigail Williams.

I posted a shit load of other bands on the first page, but, I must repeat.

Abigail Williams.

[yacoub]

Quoting: dethklok
Mindfreak aka criss angel

Yea, what the hell with the levitation? Thats some cool shit

That's levitation, holmes.

[SlainPwner666]

did you ever see his cremation trick? He burnd himself to ash, and then came out from the crowd to mourn himself

[Girls Are Pretty]

Abigail Williams.

I posted a shit load of other bands on the first page, but, I must repeat.

Abigail Williams.

I don't understand the appeal of this band. It's just bad Metalcore with a touch of Black Metal and some synths.

[BoneofMalkav]

I listen to almost every genre,but I'm mostly into any Metal,Punk,Old Rock and anything Progressive.

Opeth,Faith No More(and all of the other projects Mike Patton was involved in),Nothingface,Otep,American Head Charge,Slayer,Dog Fashion Disco,Polkadot Cadaver,Dream Theater (My Idols:Mike Portnoy and John Petrucci),Hellyeah,Pantera,Death,Cryptosy(Not sure if I spelt that right though,been very long since i last listen to them),Bad Religion(yes their pop punk but their message of Anti-establishment has never changed which is why I love them),Liquid Tension Experiment,misfits (mostly Danzig Era),Danzig,Anti-Flag,Black Flag,L7,Megadeth,Lamb of God,Judas Priest,Iron Maiden,Radiohead,Dry Kill Logic,Old Fear Factory (When they still had Dino),Dead kennedys,Hanzel und Gretyl,Lords of Acid,Mindless Self Indulgence,In Flames,Incubus,Job for a Cowboy,Ministry,Nevermore,Murderdolls,Nirvana(sorr y I just think Kirk was a song writing genous even if he drugged up most of the time),Pissing Razors,Pink Floyd,Prong,Porno for Pyros,Primus,Rage against the Machine,Strapping Young Lad,Soundgarden.I could name alot more but I'm afraid of reaching post limit lol.

... somebody typed too fast ... maybe ... i hope ...

[FaceGrater]

I forgot to mention Decapitated: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIB9mSbD67k

Their last album was awesome. Too bad their drummer Vitek died, he was inhuman on the drums. Almost supernatural in my opinion.

[tp500]

Omg, that Decapitated band was garbage. Nothing I haven't heard 1000 times over. Overdone 32nd double bass, shitty power chords, generic metal vocals. No offense FaceGrater lol, not jabbing your taste in music. Also Messhuggah is terrible lol. A lot of this metal is garbage.

[Dorito Burrito]

TENACIOUS D!!!

[Infest0125]

Not a metal band but an AMAZING band IMO... Apocalyptica.

They use orchestral music in a metal way that comes out amazing and do frequent covers of Metallica too...

For you fans of Slipknot... This song by them features Corey Taylor unmasked singing!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrlvOYUay_4

[tp500]

Apocalyptica gets WAY too much credit for being really ok. Yeah that's cool that they do metal covers and shit, but they're just more mainstream so people give them tons of credit. Look up The String Quartet, same idea, but they just cover all kinds of bands, from Queens of the Stone Age to Metallica to Coheed and Cambria to many others.

[Infest0125]

Really?? They're on the radio a ton in Detroit. I wouldn't consider them very underground or anything, they're becoming quite well known where I am at least.

Where I live I've only heard them ONCE on a radio and it was on an XM station...

And in my neighborhood I'm actually the only person who's ever even HEARD of them!

[tp500]

Dayum! Snap diggety. Yeah like I take them in small doses but they're just meh.

[Girls Are Pretty]

Omg, that Decapitated band was garbage. Nothing I haven't heard 1000 times over. Overdone 32nd double bass, shitty power chords, generic metal vocals. No offense FaceGrater lol, not jabbing your taste in music. Also Messhuggah is terrible lol. A lot of this metal is garbage.

I agree completely. Decapitated's only albums worth listening to are Winds of Creation and Nihility. I saw them live when Vitek was still around, they mostly played recent songs which was bleh, but still fun to watch.

This, too.

Im a rhythm kinda guy as well as the heavy stuff. I can understand how people don't like meshuggah. They write music for people who also write music in my opinion. The poly rhythms they do are just insane. The guitar is in one time signature, and the drums are in another. As for Decapitated, I loved Nihility. But i liked their new album, its was different from what other bands are doing (in the confining genre that death metal can be at times). I disagree with you on that most metal is garbage though tp500. For instance, Cynic is another band i forgot to mention. They most certainly write metal music not many other bands attempt.

I dare you to say that Cynic is generic... I dare you =)

But what it comes down to is that music is all preference. There has been some talk about punk and ska bands in here and those bands could easily come under the same scrutiny as well. Same with all of the Metalcore and hardcore bands mentioned. But its all preference. So no offense taken.

[arsis]

I don't understand the appeal of this band. It's just bad Metalcore with a touch of Black Metal and some synths.
Did I talk shit about your listed bands?

[Infest0125]

Not a metal band but a great band nonetheless...

Disturbed! I love them!

[Girls Are Pretty]

It was pretty standard Groove stuff. They're a shell of their former self.

He meant most of the Metal mentioned in this thread. I would have to say that most Metal is utter trash though. At the time of htis post, there are 64,320 bands listed on Metal Archives. I know that many of them suck, and a lot more probably do as well. Black and Power Metal alone have so many bad bands in the genre it's incredible.

You can if you don't like them.

I don't think thats exclusive to any genre of music though. I think there are a plethora (i like that word) of terrible "bands" in any genre.

I still liked that album (i like the groove rhythmic stuff though, hence Meshuggah). But, i can see how many death metal bands, including the great ones, can fall into the standard sound though. Like I said, it can be a confining genre at times. One band that i just don't understand why people like, is Cryptopsy.

[Infest0125]

Once afuckinggain... Not metal...

But any Seether fans here?

[masterblaze0]

Hmmm... no Cacophony?

[FaceGrater]

Jason Becker was amazing, thanks for reminding me of him.

Though, the singer of Cacophony always made me laugh. Their song "Ninja", i think its called, is so hilarious.

I have massive amounts of respect for him... It's a shame what happened to him, and I hope that he can do what he loves with music.

XD bad singing FTW

I don't understand why people like Cannable Corpse and Necrophagist. And most Metalcore.

[FaceGrater]

I don't like cannibal corpse either. I like necrophagist. But it's their technical abilities i admire. I'll admit, their songs are kind of broken and somewhat A.D.D. death metal. I don't like metalcore or hardcore either. Breakdowns bother me.

[Girls Are Pretty]

Wow, I really butchered the word "cannibal". lol I like Metalcore and Hardcore, most of it just sucks. And I think you liking Necrophagist is because you're a musician. A lot of srs musicians like music that is poorly written song writing wise if it's technical. It's why all Dream Theater fans play guitar.

Yep, haha. I like Dream Theater too lol... and i play guitar... But they have seriously gone down hill since Scenes from a Memory, imo.

[Girls Are Pretty]

>_>

The only album of theirs I like is Octavarium and when I told some DT fans they like flipped shit. Apparently it's very taboo.

Also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySF_eXKzz2A

I hope you've heard of them.

Now i've heard of them hehe. It seemed pretty good. the pictures with the video were hilarious.

I don't mind Octavarium. Its not as bad as the hardcore DT fans say it is. But it isn't my favorite of theirs. I actually like Awake the most.

[Girls Are Pretty]

I own Awake, haha. One of my first Metal albums. Obviously not a good purchase.

Aw come on! =) It's not that bad!

Dream Theater used to be my favorite band. When i was young and a musical fascist. But there are other bands out there that do the same stuff better. I still enjoy listening to them though. I also met them. They are nice guys. But not my absolute favorite band anymore. John Petrucci is the guitarist that got me wanting to play guitar when I was high school. I heard "The Glass Prison" and Thought "I need to play guitar like that." Of course I can't, but i keep trying hehe.

[Girls Are Pretty]

I was very musically fascistic. I try to ease on it, but I obviously still have opinions about good and bad music. I used to be really mean to people I thought had bad taste. Like, brutal. Now I just try to suggest new music to them or leave them alone. I guess it's an improvement.

As was i. I used to get in arguments in high school with good friends. Tell them that their music was inferior to my tastes and the like. I don't do that anymore though, thats kinda not cool. Though i still have a sever intolerance towards pop.

[Girls Are Pretty]

pop

I love Indie Pop. @_@ I actually like Scissor Sisters, too. lolz

[Lukeydoodly]

Im trying to not be a musical elitist anymore :(

soooo hard.

[tp500]

Holy shit FaceGrater!! You just found me a new band!! I really enjoy that Cynic band. They are a lot like Dream Theatre.

I hate cannibal corpse
not sure about necrophagist

All my friends love both of these bands though.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but to tie this thread back to Left 4 Dead, Metallica's new video for "All Nightmare Long" is about a zombie apocalypse with a pretty cool scenario...
