Fun Stuff > BAND
Looking for new Metal Music
BeoPuppy:
Fanboys are assholes, but we've all been there. I just hate bands who can't play songs and just wank. That's my whole philosophy. What constitutes 'wank' changes from day to day, though.
Things I like.
Old Skyclad, to wit: WITH Walkyier, because there is no one who can turn vinnegar-pissing into such sweetly barked poetry.
Cradle Of Filth, though, of late, their albums seem to have lost a bit of quality ...
Kampfar.
Iskald.
Haggard.
Some gothy stuff.
Eluveitie.
Amon Amarth.
God, what's it called ... gets mentioned elsewhere ... Oh well, they made, Fas, Ite, Maledicti, In Ignam Eternam.
Stuff like that.
KharBevNor:
Deathspell Omega?
Also, we totally haven't had a classic 'Clad love-in on these forums for a while. You wanna go first?

Man... You can't go wrong with Deathspell Omega imo. I bought Si Monumentum Requires, Circumspice and that's some seriosly good Black Metal. Among the best in the so called Orthodox Black Metal movement that has been quite popular at the moment. If you liked that band I recommend Ondskapt and Funeral Mist, both from Sweden. Funeral Mist is more abrassive though. But damn that kind of black is powerful. I also recommend the latest Marduk. I don't really like Marduk but ROM 5:12 experimented a lot with the orthodox movement and they did a great album [finaly]
Cradle Of Filth is nice enough... But I can only stand the first 3 albums...brilliant ones indeed, but all after that went downhill for me. Bathory Aria is a gem.
At the moment I'm more into Black, Doom and Grindcore.... Especially Doom and Black metal and all their subgenres.
BeoPuppy:
I just can't get into doom. Mostly to do with the 'vocals'. They're just abrassive ... something like ackercock (Spelling might be off) is just ... meh.
Really? CoF only the first three? I consider Midian their best album ...

Sorry to hear that. Doom is probably my favorite genre EVER. because you can't cheat with Doom Metal. Because it's not about the music and go technical, it's about the feelings and atmospheres. And that's something you have or not and there's not a grey zone. I think it's the hardest to play among the metal genres.
Another thing I like about doom. Its the fact that there are a huge amount of subgenres so there's place for almost everybody. But yeah... Doom is a hard pill to swallow in every case... Except Traditional doom that it's pretty easy to digest. A genre heavily influeced by Black Sabbath [I Think Black Sabbath did more doom that heavy metal tbh]
Only growls? No man... Traditional Doom Metal bands like Candlemass, Warning and the such with clean operatic vocals are great.
And I'm also I'm really glad that Metal is involving more in the Black and Doom scenes. especially the latest since bands like Esoteric with their highly psychodelic Funeral Doom are brilliant and not for the weak of mind
