Unfortunately they are behind the Black Dahlia Murder on the bill, but I can deal with it. The opener is Noisem. Are they any good? Noisem are cool. Really young kids from Baltimore. http://a389recordings.bandcamp.com/album/a389-128-noisem-agony-defined-12-cd THey'll put on a pretty high energy show, a good choice for openers!

Hello all I need some reccomendations. What are some epic, fantasy based metal bands? Something that makes me say "I WANT TO SLAY SOME DRAGONS!". On a huge Amon Amarth kick and looking for similar stuff. Thanks!

On a huge Amon Amarth kick and looking for similar stuff. Thanks! Oh god no. If you go into straight Dragon Slaying, you're going into power metal territory. Amon Amarth is sort of an outlier, because they do fantasy material but with growling. If I know anything about your tastes, power metal is going to lack aggression and you'll be bored with it. If you like Amon Amarth check out other melo-death bands. At the Gates, Soilwork, Carcass, The Haunted, etc. Also, get an album called "Those Once Loyal" by Bolt Thrower. Not the same genre but I think you will like it.

It is more Norse mythology(and that only as a vehicle. Not really based around it) and less dragons, but if I may, could I suggest Manowar? No hyphens, just undiluted, uncompromised metal.

Xandoom posted:Hello all I need some reccomendations. What are some epic, fantasy based metal bands? Something that makes me say "I WANT TO SLAY SOME DRAGONS!". On a huge Amon Amarth kick and looking for similar stuff. Thanks! Well there's Bal Sagoth. I'm not really familiar with them myself, but they're supposedly a pretty quintessential "Fuckoff bombastic fantasy metal" band without being all flowery. Apart from that, I dunno which is more important here, the big epic sound or the fantasy themes, so I'm a bit unsure what to say. Gamma Nerd already mentioned Ensiferum (man that video is so delightfully dorky ), they're really into that whole "Swords and battles woohoo" thing and I find them really enjoyable at least. I also want to take this opportunity to again pimp Grand Magus. They're not melodeath or anything, and apart from the viking themes aren't really fantasy-inspired either, but they certainly SOUND as hell to me. (click the smiley) Humour option: GloryHammer

Yeah Bal-Sagoth has what you want, sans the dragons. Atlantis Ascendant is a good album to start with.

I'd recommend checking out the Fi'mbulvintr album first over ...to north since it's a much stronger album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0giIDVbrBo8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONcF4GDiSUI Hammer Horde might be something to look into as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hfli1ni8ks PsySabreW fucked around with this message at 19:17 on Dec 8, 2013 |

They'll get you into a more "I want to slay some Panzers" mood but Sabaton does fun historical-themed metal. Falconer is a good power metal band that it isn't too flamboyant. Usually.

Nordheim is some rad epic fantasy death folk metal about dragons and trolls and beer that just might fit that bill https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AVfsVbVs8s this song is literally about killing dragons Fearless warrior loving kills the mass For glory and fame Humping girls, saving realms He'll destroy the evil, dwelling in his cave Drunk and brave gently caress him up, get his scales searching for soulblood hidden in the dragon's heart i will kill him until he dies i will kill him and so his child he went to that cave to slay the mighty dragonlord with blood and sweat he paid his place on the throne now he reigns, he's got many slaves and he'll drink ale until the end of his days

Man, after listening to this Cosmic Atrophy album I'm really depressed that the band's next album will never be released Their sound is really crazy - it's a step beyond the Timeghoul/Demilich comparisons they get thrown. I'd like to know of other modern death metal bands doing stuff like them, or which nail the hopeless, cosmic atmosphere they do. Gamma Nerd fucked around with this message at 04:08 on Dec 10, 2013 |

Xandoom posted:What are the best bands for prog metal? I'm a begginer in prog metal and am looking for a good place to start. If you don't have an aversion to DM growls (some do, even in this day and age) Edge of Sanity is one of the best. Start with either Crimson I or Crimson II. Those are their most "prog" albums. Purgatory Afterglow is my favorite, but beyond "Twilight" and a couple other tracks it's not as "proggy".

I've honestly never listened to Gorguts before this week. I have no idea why. But holy fuckdamn, Colored Sands has been on repeat this entire time. I can't get enough of this! I really wish I'd paid more attention when it came out. It's so good!

Yeah dog Crimson 2 is one of my favorite tapes of all time. You should check out Witherscape. It's as close as were gonna get to Crimson 3 unless Swano decides he wants to do straight death metal again sometime.
