Fun Stuff > BAND
metal suggestions?
Borondir:
Speaking of Australian bands and doom, check out Virgin Black. They are a wonderful operatic doom band with some blackened stuff on their first cd. They definitely have a My Dying Bride influence.
More good doom and doomy bands: Cult of Luna (prog sludge), Morgion (MDB style doom/death), Shape of Despair (dreamy funeral doom)
Summoning is really epic black metal that feels almost doomy sometimes.
Also, I'm not really sure how one of the leading metalcore bands (As I Lay Dying) is blackish.

that's a little too soon for someone just starting to get into it...but I second that.
AlexAttack:
speaking of doom, i've just gotten aquainted with the sounds of monolithe. good stuff but i reckon that instead of having a song that goes for an hour it should have been split up into different tracks. but then thats just me.

local bands from melbourne
Gospel of the Horns - thrash influenced black metal with ex members of destroyer 666 possibly the greatest band in melbourne
Fuck...i'm Dead - gore grind, recently toured with everybody's favorite recommendation anal cunt
The Berzerker - death grind there first album didn't actually make money because of the amount of property damage they had to pay off from the riots which ensued at their shows
if your looking for something quieter
alchemist - experimental prog metal these people own the melbourne underground
crimson fire - cheesy power metal but fun if you like that kind of thing
Scytale:
Good list Gridgm
Gospel Of The Horns are indeed very good. The whole Austalian "War metal" (Blackened Thrash) scene is excellent, bands like "Gospel of The Horns", "Hobb's Angel of Death", "Destroyer 666", "Battalian", "Grenade"," Urgrund", "Abominator" and "Atomizer" (they're song "When I Die I Wanna Die Violently" is awesome, pretty much sums up that whole scene)...
Alchemist are from Canberra too :P
I'll add a few more bands, I think are the pick of the Aus Metal scene:
Earth - Really good DM with keyboards (sound reminds me a lot of Morbid Angel meets later At The Gates, also from Melbourne)
Reverend Kris Hades - Post Black / Ambient (former guitarist from Nazxul and the mighty Sadistik Ekekution, unbelievable Black Ambient stuff, highly reccomended)
Pod People - Doom (Stoner doom, really good riffs)
Portal - Experimental Black\Death ( Weird Atonal, Dissonant stuff, kinda like later Blut Aus Nord put without the industrial overtones, also highly reccomended)
Myrddraal - Epic Black Metal (kinda like Blood Fire Death era Bathory)
Chalice - Gothic / Doom (early My Dying Bride-ish with Female Vocals)
Arkheth - Symphonic BM (I used to live with the guitarist so I'm kinda obligated to plug them, very good, influenced by Abigor, Emperor, old Ulver that sort of thing).
