attn metalheads

[Bobafreak]

looking to upgrade the arsenal of metal music and was looking for some good artist. I dont really care for slow music im looking for straight bad ass solos, fast ass metal. ill settle for something similar to sepultura, cradle of filth, megadeth, or bands similar to darkest hour and All that remains, The Black Dahlia Murder,goaetwhore, napalm death,threat signal etc.:wiggle:

[brndck]

3 inches of blood.

[colexcore]

Bring Me the Horizon

Job For A Cowboy

[Pank]

If you like Darkest Hour, you'll like All Will Suffer. basically search for "tough guy hardcore" and you'll find a shitload of bands that sound like darkest hour, its not that hard, they're popular as shit, so there are a lot of nut hangers

[PRADOgy]

One of the most technical talented metal bands iv ever listened to was

-"BOLT THROWER"- its death/heavy/tech just some heavy shit:hammer:

who knows whats up with that band...


oh and another kick ass band is

CARCASS

[bloodangels13]

Trivium, Mastadon (sp?) hatebreed

[Bobafreak]

i was staying away from anything mtv played. no offense lol though dh is one of them but i was using an example.

[ilovecoupes]

I think if you like darkest hour and still remains
you might want to check out killswitch engage. there a little softer but, one of my faviorte bands.

Also my friend has got me into "dillinger escape plan" they are heavy metal jazz. kinda sounds like uncordinated madness, but it isn't. and the lead singer is a mad man.

this is the best video i could find

also maybe "parkway drive"

[buku_points]

Haha the only ones out of them I haven't seen live is At the Gates because they quit being a band when I was 6 lol.

Also for some Epic Metalcore... "Becoming the Archetype" the cd Terminate Damnation is by far there best.

[Pank]

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/2e/Lamb_of_God_-_Ashes_of_the_Wake.jpg

not a huge fan, but Burn The Priest was way better. Give them a listen if you havent heard

hahah, i know those guys (not bragging, charlotte is a small town)

listen to their old band, Prayer for Cleansing (and i guess azazel, but who cares), they basically invented metalcore and the whole NC sound.
If you do listen to azazel and like them, listen to Aria, same lead singer (also friends of mine that hate when i mention their band.

all those bands (save for killswitch, i guess) are sadly beyond their prime, especially ETID, who F'ing sucks it up. Actually, I haven't seen dillinger since i "got out of the game" so they may still rip it up. They did the handful of times i saw them. Hopefully its at a smaller venue (i doubt it is, though), b/c it gets hell of nutty when its a tiny room.


everyone else, stop listening to baby metal

[ESmorz]

all those bands (save for killswitch, i guess)l

Iunno. Killswitch has been layin the gay sauce on pretty thick recently.

As soon as Howard Jones came into the picture they went severely downhill. Should have stayed with Blood Has Been Shed.

[ZX88]

3 inches of blood.

yes! good shit right their!!

I have noticed more duderly singing when they get played at the bar, but killswitch wasn't always the best band ever. I didn't even know BHBS was even still around

[iHeartTheTouge]

wow, thanks to this thread i have found out about so many more metal bands. a band i recommend is Memphis May Fire, i didnt see them mentioned so figured i'd post that up. also Alesana, not quite metal but they are still pretty good.

[ESmorz]

I don't think that they are but, I think he was better with them.

Also for the record Alesana should not be mentioned in the same sentence as "METAL" ever.

Listen to Manowar it puts hair on your chest. haha

[womenbeshoppin]

Born of Osiris
Parkway Drive
Etc
yeee, idols and anchors is a sick song

[WERDdabuilder]

(this guy) http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/4310/kenandr4.jpg
I have known for like 7 years. He was over at my house drunk off his ass at a barbecue i had a few weeks ago. Raging alcoholic but a super nice dude. He actually plays in My Hero Is Me for, and i quote, "the money and the pussy", and has another band, Wrath and Rapture, that is a whole ton better. Check them out.

[Farzam]

Pussy/money is good, duh

I thihnk thats why 90% of musicians are musicians

[Pank]

Thats why I was in a band in HS, but i cant imagine playing in one band as your "Day Job" and then when you get off, going to play in another band.

[thewhiteknight]

Lamb Of God is the only band on earth thats matters.

[Farzam]

You're a filthy liar.

[ESmorz]

Lamb of God is not the only band that matters lol.

I've kinda stopped listening to "metal" alot though because the Metalcore scene is just to polluted these days and it all sounds the same.

However one Metal band that really impressed me, after seeing them and then hanging out with them was "A Plea for Purging". Awesome riffs and badass songs, but even more badass dudes.

For the past few years I've more been listening to just straight hardcore, and even my band went this direction so it's all good.

Hardcore Playlist:
CDC
Hoods
Cold As Life
Buried Alive
Take
Death Before Dishonor
All Out War
Deathstar
Dodgin' Bullets
Earth Crisis
Until the End
Point of Recognition
Torn In Two
No Innocent Victim

all make you want to dance around kill people at a fast rate haha

[drifted]

Jesus!!!!!!!!!!! Pray for Cleansing! I haven't heard that name in years. Sonnet is also my favorite song of all time. They still did the best cover I have ever heard to date which is Salvation by the Cranberries.

Haha yup. I was actually listening to Salvation this morning lol.

[drifted]

I saw Dillinger play in a really small venue a couple years ago and the singer climbed up onto the light rigging hanging from the ceiling and hung upside down from his knees and sang 3 songs like that!!! I was the funnies shit ever!!!

[drifted]

A Band I love and used to dance so hard for was 7 Angels 7 Plagues. They are not together anymore but they do have a myspace and fuckin' shred!!!

That video is about how amped it was at macrock.

I saw all shall perish at some random show in SC a loooong time ago, i was outside, and they started playing and you just see everyone go "Ok who the fuck is this and why are we outside". I ended up getting a shirt that had a battleship on the back, and the front was their logo with 2 crossed MG42 machine guns. how metal is THAT

[Jtuned_andy]

Iced Earth
In Flames
Children Of Bodom
Old Slipknot
All That Remains
Iron Maiden? (Can't beat the classics)
Trivium

[Pank]

You were good till you mentioned slipknot.
Children of Bodom is pretty good live, heartily recommend seeing them if they're within 4 hours of you. They played with Dimmu, Hypocrisy and Nevermore in Atlanta, and brought the house down, i left before dimmu even started.


This is a good thread

[Bobafreak]
