    METAL!!! \m/

    I should come out and recommend some stuff. First i will say that Finntroll and Exhumed isn't really study music in my opinion and not instrumental either, both got singers and harsh ones at that.

    Gamma ray, German power metal with Kai Hansen(past helloween member) as frontman. the albums Powerplant, which got a killer ending song, Armageddon. And Somewhere out in space which got one of the best songs ever in my opinion as opener, Beyond the Black Hole.

    And i would like to second that Elvenking kicks ass. Great music, try out their album Heatenreel.

    Judas Priest is a must if you haven't already tried them out. Painkiller got some really good songs. and Screaming for Vengeance is good to a little softer tho.

    Falkenbach or Vintersorg could work for studying. A few of there songs are really heavy and loud, but some are more instrumental.

    One I am listening to currently and am absolutely hooked on at the moment is Rhapsody. Not really heavy, but not soft either.

    I'm listening to a lot of glammish hard rock / heavy metal now, lots of Möotley Crue & Guns N' Roses. Satisfies the girl-chasing part of me.
    Perfect party music, as well.

    Chris Poland's (Megadeth) album Return to Metalopolis is pretty good.

    Maybe I'm thinking of a different band than Exhumed... but I know most Finntroll songs I've heard were instrumental.

    The new Children of Bodom will be out soon too. Should kick ass.

All I have at the moment that fits this category is Apocalyptica, and I'm starting to get tired of them. I need some more variety. Ideas?

    Nice with the bumping of this thread [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] For study music, I usually have on a mixture of trance and tori amos, but if that's too gay for you, try out the liquid tension experiment. Its an instrumental band which is a side project of a couple of dream theater members. So, think dream theater without the singing, and that's pretty much what you have.

    Yes! GNR definately hits the spot everytime you're in the mood for that type of music. They're just so raw.

    That's like 70% mallcore, but yeah, there's some good things there too I guess. Personally I can't stand LP, Korn, Godsmack and it's ilk though.
    You're off to a good future with the likes of Bodom, Nightwish & Lacuna Coil though. Perhaps you'd be interested in trying Norther & Kalmah next, both in the vein of Bodom.

    @Barles: You bet. Can't go wrong with Paradise City.
    @Azazel: Yep, unfortunately there're a few months left. But I am having high hopes for it, 2005 is shaping up to be the best metal year in a long time!

    Well there are many bands that I can suggest. As a substitute for the extremely overrated Cradle of Filth I'd recommend first and foremost Anorexia Nervosa (might be -too- extreme though) and otherwise Dimmu Borgir which is also quite an overrated band but nontheless quite good. If you like Norther & Kalmah, then move on to Eternal Tears of Sorrow (very similar to Kalmah). In the Nightwish/Coil vein there are also many bands, perhaps After Forever will be your cup of tea.

    Bear in mind though that many of these bands need time to sink your teeth into, the thing about mallcore is that it's very easy to get into (which is why those bands have followers even amongst those who do not necessarily like "heavy" music) so, well, only try the bands out if you want to see what metal really is about.

    I have one song from Dimmu Borgir. Burn In Hell I beleive is the name. And I know what you mean it took me a bit to really start to like Bodom and Filth.

    Good Dimmu songs to start with: Mourning Palace, Kings of the Carnival Creation ... and just about everything else from the albums Enthrone Darkness Triumphant & Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia.

    Filth is becoming quite commercial as well. I don't really know why though, I don't think they are -that- easy to listen to, yet fucking 14-year olds with their 50 Cent shirts have started to like them. It's strange. I guess it's because of Dani (who is a short fucking moron, by the way)

    Burn in hell is a Twisted Sister cover which brings me right into the TS album that cover is on "Stay hungry" great mindless 80's metal. All of you have probably heard I wanna rock and We're not gonna take it but i decided to mention them anyway, 2 of the songs on "Stay hungry"

    I didn't know anyone was extreme as me enough to listen to Anorexia Nervosa, heh.. if you like it, you should try Anaal Nakhrath.

    Kezren you should definitely check out some Opeth.

    Anorexia Nervosa is one of my favorite bands, I don't like pure extreme black/death metal, but the symphonic influences of that band is just lovable and makes it stand on top many.

    Opeth is a good band, albeit pretty hard to get into. Though that varies as well, some seem to find them very listenable. I guess it's a matter of preference.

    @PSJ: Yep, Burn in Hell is a TS cover (which I actually forgot in the midst of my reply to Kezren). Good observation!

    Another TS recommendation. The ablum Love Is For Suckers got some awesome tunes, check it out if you like 80's metal. The same goes for Mötley Crüe - Dr. Feelgood, awesome album with alot of hot tracks, works great in summertime.

    What the hell are you waiting for? Go and get them now!!

    I just started too listen to "Inkubus Sukkubus" after hearing there song "Vampyre Erotica" on Gotham radio.. And i thought it was really good.. i ended up downloading 8 albums with them.. I had never hear of them before so it was a happy supprise.. So if you havn't heard them, give them a chance and say what you think about it..

    You guys should all check out one of my favorite bands, the Babylon Whores. They're goth metal with lyrics about the occult and mythology, and basically they're like no other band. they're a really cool underrated band from Finland. But they might be hard to find. If I'm allowed, maybe I can upload a couple songs and post them here.

    you'd probably be better off just giving a link to people who PMed you with a request for any of their songs.

    no point attracting unneeded attention for copyright infringment

    Thanks to everyone for the recommendations. I'm going to check out a bunch of those bands this weekend and I'll let you know which ones I like best.

    Azazel, you could always share songs over IRC: #gotwoot at irc.gotwoot.net
    There are quite a few of us that hang out there on a regular basis.
