Bands That Go "Wuurgggh!"
« Reply #100 on: 03 Apr 2006, 21:11 »
I know it's unlikely, but has anyone got any rocking folky blacky Pagan/Tolkien metal suggestions? I'm looking for stuff along the lines of Wyrd, Orkrist, Summoning, Waylander, Nazgul, Forefather, Windir, old Ulver etc. etc., but not those. Get what I'm driving at? The musical mood I'm looking for is riding through a forest in winter on a big horse with a pack of wolves under your mastery following you. And fiddles, if at all possible.

Moonsorrow maybe? Stay away from Hin Onde, if you possibly can.

I'm sure you know them already Khar, but Otyg is pretty friggin sweet folk metal.  They've got fiddles, but they aren't very blackened.  

They also have Vintersorg, which makes them incredibly cool!

Khar better goddamn know about otyg. I only blathered on about them all the fucking time back in the day.



actually svartsyn isn't what you're looking for, after all. I totally misread your sentence, somehow.


it never ceases to amuse me how many viking metal bands from mexico there are.

on the topic of opeth, no, not a big fan, but not a critic either.  yes, they are amazing musicians, i do mean that, but if you listen to an album from start to end (damnation, ghost reveries) it is mighty repetitive in my opinion.

in flames are perhaps my favourite metal band.  colony is a good album, but my tastes are spread across all their albums (really old and even some from Come Clarity....though not many).  what are the opinions on Soundtrack to Your Escape? i've heard some amazingly polarized arguments on that album and i was wondering what the opinions here were.

death metal is good stuff (especially of a melodic variety), highly recommend, but not so much the black metal.

Yeah, Lamb of God are pretty much fucking shit.


Hardcore+Metal can be done really well. Most times, it is not.




For reference to the previous statement, see every single metalcore band save for Between the Buried and Me.


Although a lot of it is woeful I'm going to have to take issue with you on:
Converge
D-Rail
Thirty Seconds Until Armageddon (best chug ever)
The Plague Mass
Fall Silent
Drowningman
Stand
Walls of Jericho
Dragbody
And probably a few others. In fact, now that I think about a hefty proportion of the good hardcore of the past 10 years has had a serious metal influence even if it wasn't metalcore. Just look at all the good it did for emo!

It's hard to tell what you already have/love, but two bands I havent seen you mention are Alkonost (russia's metal version of agalloch) and Of the Wand and the Moon.

I'm  a big Neo-Folk fan, so Of The Wand and the Moon are pretty well represented in my collection, but I Ain't heard of Alkonost. From what I've heard of Russian folk-metal vis-a-vis Butterfly Temple, might be pretty good.

Out of curiosity, could anyone reccomend me some death metal bands that sound similar to Demonoid?  Amon Amarth doesn't have the same replayability that Demonoid does for some reason I have yet to determine.

Some bands you could look into for Death Metal are Eventide, Sonic Syndicate, and Agony.

For the black metal question above, granted that I'm not all that familiar with any of those mentioned, but you could look into Equilibrium and Eternal Tears of Sorrow.

If we're talking about the same Equilibrium(german group, first album Turis Fratyr), then that's Viking Metal, not death metal. Same with Amon Amarth.


I don't know this demonoid band, but if it's anything like Amon Amarth, then you'd probably dig Ensiferum and it's sister band Wintersun.

Demonoid is Therion's death-metal side-project. Thing is, I can't remember the fuck what they sound like. Seeing as what they are however, I suspect Bloodbath would be a good recommendation.

Fuck, Bloodbath is ALWAYS a good reccomendation.

Yes, we're talking about the same Equilibrium, and I was talking about them in relation to the folk metal thing that Khar asked.

What kind of metal would you consider Necrophagist? I've listened to them a bit and I am seeing them play with my friend's band on May 14th but I don't really know much about them. From what I've heard they sound a bit different than some metal I've heard (examples: Decapitated, Cryptopsy, and the band playing with them Job For A Cowboy)

Necrophagist are really really tech death, and pretty dope all around. I take it your friends were local openners on their tour? Decapitated are pretty generic death, but nonetheless have two very awesome guitarists, Cryptopsy are pretty rad, and JFAC are new on the scene but I think they kick some major ass.

Yeah my friends are Andrew and Ravi from JFAC (the guitarists). They're playing with Necrophagist and a buuuunch of other bands in California for that metal fest on May 13th and then coming to Phoenix to play with Necrophagist and Cattle Decapitation and a few other bands on the 14th, so that will be fun.

Yeah, they're a neat group of dudes. It's kind of a shame though because whenever they are on tour with other bands usually they'll go out to California or other states around us (Utah, Colorado, etc etc) and then they'll end in Phoenix and everyone will go just to see them and then when their set is over like 90% of the people at the venue will leave. Not a shame for JFAC but a shame for any band that plays after them, haha.

Dude, what do you take me for :p

JFAC are pretty good actually, but the name is fucking dumb. When my mate sent me a track, I thought it was gonna be goddamn emo/hipster shit again.

I just think that everybody needs to know that Absu kicks major amounts of ass in Pagan Black Metal, or Black Metal In general. I even have their Highland Tyrant Attack shirt and its awsome. They're like the american Immortal or old Satyricon.
I had a feeling that you know them because you are like TEH METAUL GODZORZ.


JFAC. The name sounds like they got high watching an old cowboy movie, and then listened to some Dying Fetus. I only heard one song, but it did sound good enough for me to try and get some of their stuff.

It was suppose to be a joke name originally but kind of stuck, at least that's what I've heard.

Khav, have you heard Turisas? Yet another silly viking metal outfit from Finland. I haven't heard their music due to general lack of interest, but those in the know say that they're somewhat decent.

They released anything since Battle Metal? I find them a tad on the cheesy side, but sometimes I'm in the mood for that.

Their guitarist was in an auto accident. He is thankfully alive, but he was unconcious for a while and is now in rehabilitation.

sry for the bump, but here's a suggestion for Khar!

Asmegin


Avoid the first album. How they went from being bad/mediocre to as good as they are is beyond me.
