The Metal Discussion (Come in here for the chugga chuzz of the br00tal metal)

[Luigitoilet]

So? They are still a nu-metal band. They just do it in a way that doesn't instantly annoy fans of most other metal subgenres.

As for Periphery, never heard of the, They don't seem to bad at all, and I'm liking the different vocalists, but they don't seem like anything special.

Agalloch on the other hand have been one of those "why don't I already listen to you" bands that I have recently found.

I was just saying. I don't like the subgenre but they're a great band regardless.

 

[GreenFox]

I agree with everything you have said on this subject Luigitoilet I can word it any better.

 

[the melon!!!!!]

SOAD is pretty beast.

Periphery, anyone?

Older version of the song. They've had 3 vocalists I believe? All have their ups and downs.

I personally like their new singer the most. Casey Sabol was a mediocre singer (though his screams weren't all that bad), and I think Spencer really fits the sound a lot better.



Also, anybody fans of Knives Exchanging Hands?

^^ I never heard of this group before, but they are pretty cool. That song starts out pretty boring but it picks up about a minute in. Fun stuff.

this might not be anyone's fancy, but Rolo Tomassi's second album, Cosmology, has been out for a couple weeks. In typical Rolo fashion, it's definitely a grower. I hated it at first but now I keep coming back to it.

[Meleeruler]

I actually enjoyed all three of them. Good stuff.

 

[Red the Ghost]

Meleeruler, you're alive?

 

[Meleeruler]

Sometimes I wonder that too.

 

[Palpi]

I actually enjoyed all three of them. Good stuff.

Thanks alot, your enjoyment meant a lot to me =] hehe

 

[My Cat Owns]

Protest The Hero is awesome.

 

[Meleeruler]

Protest The Hero is awesome.

Your name, avatar, and post are all worth making a post about.

 

[Luigitoilet]

I can only listen to Protest for a tiny bit at a time. Something about their music just wears on my nerves if I listen for very long.

 

[Palpi]

Yeah, they are nothing special to me =/

 

[Dru2]

Anyone ever heard of Deicide?

 

[#HBC | Dark Horse]

I like the old stuff (from the 80's) so my favorite band is metallica.

DREAM METAL BAND (in my opinion):

Drummer- Les binks (judas preist)

Singer- Ozzy Osborne (black sabbath, himself)

Guitarist- Dave Mustaine (megadeth)

Bass- Cliff Burton (Metallica)

 

[Dru2]

You mean Ozzy back in the good days, right?

 

[#HBC | Dark Horse]

Yep. That Ozzy.

 

[Epic Kovumon]

Anyone ever heard of Deicide?

I used to be really into them when I first started with metal, I still like them but they're just "meh" now.

Anyways, this band is my current favorite: Code

Deicide is a great death metal band. Can't go wrong with Cryptopsy though

 

[the melon!!!!!]

Anybody fans of The Crimson Armada? They're a decent metal band, and I can't get enough of this guy's vocals.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ8akbP1ki0&feature=related

Deicide is ridiculous, yes.

The Crimson Armada are quite awesome.

 

[dvon21]

What do you guys think of the new As I Lay Dying album The Powerless Rise. Honestly, at some points it sounds like Frail Worlds Collapse mixed with Ocean Between Us leads.

I have that album,Tims vocals got way more brutal

 

[dvon21]

Agreed, although they still sound a little mainstream. But it's definitely better than An Ocean Between Us.
I can't stop listening to Upside Down Kingdom. Such a good song!

Holy fuuuuuuuuuuu

this reminds me, for some reason, of Darkest Hour back when they had Kris Norris on lead (solo starts at 2:15)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VEaSsmGioU

while most DH fans disagree, this band isn't all that special without Kris Norris, even though he's only on two albums. So melodic, yet so intense.

I can agree with you there. Though I still feel they're great without him, those 2 albums were really their best by far lol.

Oh man I liked that opening.

 

[GreenFox]

I was thinking of things to make this thread more interesting....In my original posts I made a list of what I thought would be "The Perfect Band" if everybody could share there perfect band we could vote and make it real kind of like a dream team for this thread :D I'm gonna alter my original post and post it here

My Dream Band

Lead Guitar: Tosin Abasai (Animals as Leaders) / Jeff Loomis(Nevermore)
Drums: Mario Duplantier(Gojira)
Rhythm Guitar/Vocals (Devin Townsend)
Bass: Arif Mirabdolbaghi(Protest The Hero)

I guess this is a way of celebrating that we made it to page 32.


EDIT:
DEVIN TOWNSEND IS AMAZING

IM GOIN CRAZY WITH THIS POST

 

[Luigitoilet]

Lead Guitar: Paul Waggoner (Between the Buried and Me)
Drums: Jon Karel (Number 12 Looks Like You)
Rhythm Guitar: David Isen (HORSE)
Vocals: Mike Patton (Mr. Bungle, Fantomas, Faith No More, etc etc etc)
Bass: Jaco Pastorius (let me dream!)
Keys: Ashley Ellyllon (Cradle of Filth, Abigail Williams, ORBS)

 

[GreenFox]

Good guitarist choice haven't listened to the other people besides Horse.

 

[Raziek]

Didn't read anything else in the thread, but the OP instantly wins the universe for having Arif in their dream band.

Arif is the MK of bassists. You cannot defeat him.

 

[Palpi]

Victor Wooten is my favorite bassist...favorite as in..most impressed by techincal skill with. =]

 

[#HBC | Dark Horse]

My favorite has to be Cliff Burton of Metallica.

 

[Luigitoilet]

Victor Wooten is my favorite bassist...favorite as in..most impressed by techincal skill with. =]

Vic Wooten is the king, but not because of technical skill (though he has that in truckloads). I saw him playing a show with just a drummer (who I can't for the life of me remember the name of but he was awesome), and he just played some of the most soulful and emotive music I'd ever heard. His creativity and improv skill is just ridiculous.

But, to have him in a metal band would just be...weird.

 

[GreenFox]

Listen to this specially the drum intro/fill that is why you cant touch him for drumming

[Palpi]

Anyone listen to Eluveitie?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iijKLHCQw5o'

Friend just got one of their Albums, Slania and it is pretty **** awesome. They are one of the few folk bands who don't use keyboards for any sounds.
