Title: Recommend any metal group(s)
Post by: El Misfit on May 20, 2011, 01:17:25 PM
I just need some more metal groups in my life, here's what I got:
Firewind
Arch Enemy
The Agonist
Children of Bodom
Soilwork
Iron Maiden
some Metallica (...And Justice for All towards their earlier stuff)
Sirenia
Nightwish
Lacuna Coil
Megadeth
Avantasia
UnSun
Nevermore
Iced Earth
Draconian
Dream Evil
Samael
Nachtmystium
Sentenced
Ethereal
Graveworm
Dimmu Borgir
Within Temptation
In Flames
Xandria

As you can see, I mostly listen to stuff from Europe. Got any suggestions? Thanks!
one more thing: I either listen to the guitar riffs, the melody, or if the singer isn't screaming all the time, as in Nevermore, Metallica, Iron Maiden, etc. If it's stuff like Behemoth, I won't listen to it. :smile: other than that, I'll listen to it.

Testament
Sanctuary
Fates Warning
Annihilator
Savatage
Chastain
Accept

Early Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne (the Randy Rhoads albums are favorites of mine), I guess Led Zeppelin is usually considered heavy metal, though only a few of their songs really are.

Circus will probably have a suggestion or two   :teddyr:

Edit:  lol, he already did.

Chastain-  :thumbup:
Savatage-  :thumbup:
Testament- Older stuff  :thumbup: newer stuff  :thumbdown:
Sanctuary-  :thumbup:
Annihilator and Accept- Mixed feelings

Led Zeppelin is great, but with my dad "singing", it just ruins it for me. Black Sabbath is great as well

Aww dude, Testament's newer stuff has been good, at least "The Gathering" and "The Formation Of Damnation" -they were monstrous returns to form. I wasn't keen on "Low" or "Demonic" and some of their re-recordings, but they're still one of a number old school thrash bands out there putting new metal bands to shame.

Hearing this song live is still one of the greatest musical experiences of my life:  :thumbup:

in my humble opinion 'Never Neverland' is the only Annihilator album anyone needs to hear. It is a masterpiece of metal...the rest don't really hold up. like I said,just my opinion

also Pantera needs a mention - any album from Cowboys From Hell onward. such a heavy sound they pioneered (or stole from Exhorder depending on who you believe)

Not really similar to those listed, but I like Neurosis.

Werd!  I got to see Testament back in 1990 in Allentown, PA

They did their classics, Trial By Fire,   Disciples Of The WatchSouls Of Black and a host more.  Even cooler, was that their opening acts were Nuclear Assault and Savatage.  :smile:

Indeed, Testamant is still working with the force they had when they were younger, esp. in light of Chuck Billy's fight with cancer.  And on that note, more power to him!  :thumbup:

Annihilator is okay in my book, as well as Accept. It's just not as exciting as some other stuff I listen to. :smile:

in my humble opinion 'Never Neverland' is the only Annihilator album anyone needs to hear. It is a masterpiece of metal...the rest don't really hold up. like I said,just my opinion

also Pantera needs a mention - any album from Cowboys From Hell onward. such a heavy sound they pioneered (or stole from Exhorder depending on who you believe)


Pantera is the same as Annihilator as well.
3 Inches of Blood- not really my thing
Mastodon-
Evergrey
Throwdown
Parkway Drive
Thy Will Be Done
In Other Climes (very hard to find any material for... they're a small band from France, possibly even no longer together)
Gojira
Machinehead
Falconer
God Forbid- not really my thing
Hatesphere

The Agony Scene
Novembre
Chimaira
Corrosion of Conformity
Dark Tranquillity (name not misspelled; it actually has two L's)- 50/50
Symphony X- :thumbup: :thumbup:
Steel Attack- 80/20 :drink:
Onmyouza-  :thumbup: :thumbup:
Amon Amarth- ehhhh, say 50/50

still need to listen to it, just don't have the time now.

How'd I forget, I love Devin Townsend!  His stuff can be pretty ecclectic but his work is mostly metal:

IMO, Heartwork was quite good but not really as good as it's predecessor, Nectroticism......

Yep, that's him.  I haven't listened to much of SYL, but I understand that that group was an outlet for Townsend to make heavier and angrier music.
