Fun Stuff > BAND
Looking for new Metal Music
Be My Head:
-The best pirate metal band is Cauldron Black Ram, the Australian Death Metal band.
-Doom metal Sabbath is on Master of Reality, not Paranoid.
-Anyone who says Candlemass sucks is a fool and doesn't like real doom metal, same goes for Saint Vitus.
-I would rather listen to hispter metal than Metalcore or Nu-Metal any day.
- Meshuggah sucks because of their uncreative songs and shitty vocalist, while they do have something in common with metalcore vocals, they're on Metal Archives and that's good enough for me.
- I haven't seen Kermit_1918 offer any counter recommendations.

Because there are some that are going around telling what's metal and what's not. Nü Metal is metal.... A very bad subgenre but metal anyway and that's a fact.

Why yes, which is why I didn't call anyone out on any of the bands they posted here that I didn't think were metal/don't like. I don't really consider myself a metalhead, even though I listen to tons of metal.

If you like that guy then Mirrorthrone will blow your mind. Mirrorthrone is also a one-man-superband - melodic black metal with beautiful classical touches. His last album Gangrene was one of my favorite albums from last year, and one of the best musical discoveries I've made in a long time.
And here are a couple more metal bands that I've been listening to that I think are nothing short of incredible:
Fleshgod Apocalypse: description of their latest album Oracles from their myspace: "Fierce anti-Sophistic sermons, sharp strings laments, unmerciful skins shredding, and refined orchestral interludes, in a unique opera for the celebration of the ratio and the positivist thought, honoring the fathers of the classical spirit."
The solos are almost as beautiful as the seemingly eerie breaks of classical music, which include the sounds of an orchestra warming up, an insane piano intro, choral religious chants, and a hauntingly beautiful piano outro. If the forefathers of classical music wanted to start a technical death metal supergroup, this is what they would sound like. This is one of my top albums of 2009.
Shining - depressive black metal titans, their two most recent albums could be considered more progressive than black metal. Incredible songwriting, which I am a stickler for. It's also good to know that these guys can appreciate the benefits of super crisp production.

Maybe, but you have to admit that Electric funeral is pretty damn heavy as well, it is just that Planet caravan undid all of the heavy in Hand of Doom and Electric Funeral.

Yeah man, of course I know about them and I have that cd on my computer, great music I must tell ya. I was listening to them while playing some roll game and damn, it was an awesome experience! I must admit that I preffer Pensées Nocturnes, mainly because of the voice that it's so twisted and depressive along with that piano a la Chopin but Mirrorthrone is of course something to check out.
And I LOVE Shining... The vocalist is an arrogant asshole though, but I just care about his music. The best cds imo are IV and V.

- I see some clear doom even on Black Sabbath's debut. Not extreme doom of course but it sounds like traditional Doom... It's like a prototype of how the old school doom sounded like.
- I agree, it's ok if you don't like them,.... But you can't just say that the band sucks. They are legends when it comes to traditional doom. It's like... For example: I really don't like Iron Maiden, but I feel like I can't say they suck... Because they don't. It's just music that it's not for me.
- Metal Archives is full of hypocrites if you ask me. They have drone bands like Sunn O))) and Nadja. But they don't have drone bands that sound more metal like the band Angelic Process. And they don't put Nü Metal and Metalcore... Both styles SUCK, I think we can agree on that. But they are a type of metal no matter if we like it or not. I dislike that kind of attitude on MA...
If they have drone... Then I don't really see why they don't put Metalcore and Nü Metal. And no... The bands being shit is not an excuse for not making a place for them.

Just bought it. I like it. It's blistering.
Also: it's not easy being green. It makes you agressive.
