Wow, that really is weird.
Meh, this is probably pretty much the same as my earlier posts here...some of the bands I listen to (CoF etc) get called 'sellout' bands a lot by elitists, but if I like it I'll listen to it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img].Originally posted by: PossiblE
I was hoping someone else would reply, seems weird to just have a conversation between two people on a forum. Come on metal fans, start posting.
Bands I listen to:
Cradle of Filth
Killswitch Engage
Chimaira (a little bit, they're ok)
Mushroomhead
The Mad Capsule Markets (punk but they get pretty heavy in some songs - best band on earth [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img])
Grimfist
Kittie (their older stuff - yes I'm that uncool to listen to them sometimes - not often though)
System of a Down
Undown (Japanese metal band with ToruXXX of The Mad Capsule Markets on guitar)
Dir En Grey (the band in my avatar - not metal but some of their songs border on it)
+D'espairsRay+
12012
Marilyn Manson (don't suppose they're really metal, but some of their older stuff is cool)
I stupidly bought tickets for an upcoming Slipknot/Slayer/Hatebreed concert thats gonna totally suck - I liked Slipknot for a while a few years ago (don't like them anymore), don't really like Slayer and I fucking hate Hatebreed
Heh, the only thing that's worth the money there is Slayer, how could you not like Slayer? Their old stuff is just so awesome.
How about the now popular Folk Metal (I guess it's called that or was it Pagan Folk Metal?). I've been listening to Finntroll and Moonsorrow a lot lately. Great Music.
I remember when MTV paid tribute to Metallica. MTV invited some band to perform some Metallica classic.
Avril Lavigne was one of the performer. She sing fuel, I think
What's your opinion about Avril's performance.
i haven't seen it, so i can't answer. but i do know that her songs are no different than other pop songs, except she forces an image of some new kid punk thing. she teaches our children to only like other people if they are rich and famous (as seen/heard in sk8r boi), and anyone who 'claims' to be 'deep' is automatically shallow, imo. that whore needs to die. or stop making records.
I haven't heard her sing the Metallica song but if its anywhere near as bad as her acoustic rendition of Chop Suey by SOAD then I'd be interested in downloading it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]. Listening to her sing the verse bit felt like watching a horrific car crash in slow motion [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]Originally posted by: kupalmaru

And yeah PossiblE I haven't really listened to Slayer much if I'm honest, I'm gonna d/l some songs before I go to see if I like them, it was one of those things where someone suggested a concert about 8 months in advance and I just agreed. [img]i/expressions/rolleye.gif[/img] I might see if I can sell it on ebay or something...
I don't even want to imagine Avril singing Fuel.
As for CoF, I don't care that they are "selling out" (I don't really agree on the term), as far as I'm concerned they are just not as good as before. Now Midian, that was a fucking great album. But after that...
Yeah Midian is miles better than any of their other albums...that was the first one I heard by them, first song I heard was Lord Abortion which is still probably my favourite song by them..
They still have the odd good track on some of the other ones (Funeral In Carpathia, Suicide & Other Comforts etc, ones with the backing singer are usually fairly good) but Midian is the only one I'll listen to all the way through...I've heard a few tracks of a promo thing they're doing for their new album and they weren't all that good...some of the instrumental tracks are pretty good (intros and stuff like that).
Heh, can't say I like CoF or have ever liked them.
Guess no one likes Finntroll or Moonsorrow?
Lets shift back to power metal then, anyone heard Celesty? I've only heard a few songs, but from what I have heard, they are damn good.
Edit: Finally got Genin, go me.
bands I listen to as well.
The Cure
Type O Negative
Nightwish
The Tea Party
Nick CAve
Pantera
Nine Inch Nails
Einsturzende Neubauten
Alice In Chains
Soundgarden
Godspeed You Black Emperor (not metal but good)
Vincent Law - from nerd to bishi in 60 seconds
i listen to everything so i dont know the difference between metal and other types of "rock"
and by everything i mean everything...i have temptations music on my comp
Hah. Lots of this stuff isn't really metal at all, but all good nonetheless. Looking at all these posts, I really don't know that many metal bands compared to the lot of you. Of course I've also been complaining about outright shitty music the past few years. So These posts are going to keep me busy for awhile with music. I feel like a pre-teen in the porn section with an unlimited budget and a fake ID. It's good to be a gotwoot forum member.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]Originally posted by: Charlf00

I can give you some good metal bands, depending on what style you like. Just list some metal bands that you have likes so far, and I can probably give you some more of that genre, or that just sound similar.
Hey thanks man. I'll take you up on your offer. Some metal bands I like a great deal are Pantera, Metallica, Messhugah, Sepultura, Corrosion of Conformity, Death, Dream Theater, Stratovarius, In Flames, Type O Negative, Megadeth, Nothingface, and Slayer. There are others, but they're not coming to mind. Other bands that sound like any of these is good, but I'm open to different sounds all together as well. Go nuts.

Nice list, dude! I listen to pretty much all of those! I'm looking forward to what PossiblE will suggest as well. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
iron maiden? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
id suggest dredg, within temptation, opeth and maybe skinny puppy
Heh awesome, you listed many different genres.Hey thanks man. I'll take you up on your offer. Some metal bands I like a great deal are Pantera, Metallica, Messhugah, Sepultura, Corrosion of Conformity, Death, Dream Theater, Stratovarius, In Flames, Type O Negative, Megadeth, Nothingface, and Slayer. There are others, but they're not coming to mind. Other bands that sound like any of these is good, but I'm open to different sounds all together as well. Go nuts.
Well here goes some, I'll probably think of more later and edit this:
Pantera, Metallica and Meshuggah are all pretty difficult to classify, can't help you out there too much, try a band called Textures if you like Meshuggah though.
Death is also pretty unique, but try some Amon Amarth, The Crown, Bloodbath, Darkane, Dimension Zero and possibly Obsidian. A lot of these bands aren't really close to Death but they are all heavy, if you like them, I can give you heavier stuff.
Dream Theater, hmmm, I don't know much prog, Ivory Tower (Almost the same sound as Dream Theater), Symphony X, Planet X (purely instrumental band), Liquid Tension Experiment and maybe Warmen (they are a side project of CoB's keyboardist, very unique sound).
Stratovarius, excellent, power metal, this is probably my favourite genre, Rhapsody, Luca Turilli, Labyrinth, Kamelot, Human Fortress, Eidolon, Nevermore (they sort of fit into this, they have a unique sound, also my favourite band), Wolfcry, Sonata Arctica, Primal Fear, Iced Earth (not really power metal, similar vocal style though), Gamma Ray, Evergrey, Dragonland, Dragonforce, Blind Guardian, Celesty and Battlelore (growling vocals with a female clear singer, more heavier power metal).
In Flames, ah Melo-Death, my second favourite genre, sadly there aren't very many good bands that do it as well as old In Flames. Anyways here goes, Dark Tranquillity, Obisidian (they fit into here as well), Norther (sort of similar sound), and Imsomnium. Sadly that's all I have for melo-death, I guess they are all so good I can just listen to each cd over and over.
Slayer, thrash, I don't listen to a lot of thrash, but there are a lot of good bands. The Black Dahlia Murder (growling vox, very fast), At the Gates and Nightrage, sadly that's all I have for this, if you like any heavier stuff, I can give you a lot more bands that are just as fast as these.
Some bands you should listen to because they are just so good: Katatonia, Agalloch, ... And Oceans, Apocalyptica, My Dying Bride, Moonsorrow, Finntroll, Moonspell, Mastodon, Into Eternity, Borknagar, Children of Bodom and Opeth
As for Sepultura, Corrosion of Conformity, Type O Negative, and Nothingface, I don't listen to those (or classify them as Metal).
I bolded all the bands, so you don't have to read all my blabbering if you don't want to.
Edit: If you can't find any of these bands, I can send a few songs I have over MSN(Seed.Awakening@gmail.com) or AIM(Opiate034).
is it possible to tag PossiblE (pardon the pun) as "Metal Head" or something. his knowledge is stupidly good in the subject.
Haha, thanks.
