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. Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: Psycho Circus on May 20, 2011, 01:21:51 PM Based on what you like already, I'd give some of these artists a try. You may have (should of) heard of a few. :smile:
Testament Sanctuary Fates Warning Annihilator Savatage Chastain Accept Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: Jack on May 20, 2011, 01:22:19 PM 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. Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: El Misfit on May 20, 2011, 01:43:34 PM 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 Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: Psycho Circus on May 20, 2011, 04:22:31 PM Testament- Older stuff :thumbup: newer stuff :thumbdown: 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: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iiFPsdL4NM Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: lester1/2jr on May 20, 2011, 04:31:13 PM Fates Warning with the old singer.
Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: Psycho Circus on May 20, 2011, 04:52:00 PM Fates Warning with the old singer. Yeah, John Arch ruled! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZ8nkl9tvBw Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: lester1/2jr on May 20, 2011, 04:58:04 PM That album is ridiculous. Everyone should own it. Even those who don't want it.

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) Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: Pilgermann on May 22, 2011, 02:36:33 AM Not really similar to those listed, but I like Neurosis.

Bolt Thrower Amorphis Paradise Lost Candlemass Eyehategod The Obsessed Godflesh Pentagram (if you like Sabbath) Sabbat (eurothrash band, not a typo) Celtic Frost (especially 'To Mega Therion') Venom Disembowelment Grave (everything up to, but not including, 'Hating Life' Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: Umaril The Unfeathered on May 22, 2011, 01:32:03 PM Testament- Older stuff :thumbup: newer stuff :thumbdown: 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. Werd! I got to see Testament back in 1990 in Allentown, PA They did their classics, Trial By Fire, Disciples Of The Watch, Souls 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: Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: Psycho Circus on May 22, 2011, 02:25:29 PM Sabbat Oh, I can't second that enough! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=685uHyRbOAE Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: El Misfit on May 23, 2011, 08:35:49 AM Annihilator and Accept- Mixed feelings Bull, have you heard these tracks by Annihilator & Accept? [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQp98s3xV-U[/url] [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-YksCd1A3k&feature=related[/url] 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 Shadows Fall- not really my thing 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. Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: voltron on May 23, 2011, 10:16:44 AM Sabbat Oh, I can't second that enough!

I am very impressed. :thumbup: Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: Pilgermann on May 23, 2011, 11:07:44 AM How'd I forget, I love Devin Townsend! His stuff can be pretty ecclectic but his work is mostly metal:

[/quote] 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. Title: Re: Recommend any metal group(s) Post by: Mr. DS on May 25, 2011, 08:14:59 AM Sam Black Church
