Alright so you guys pretty much ruined the last thread with your terrible opinions. Then I honestly felt like I was in high school again because someone was actually loving talking about Machine Head. So basically I'm rebooting this thread because the other one was getting long anyways. What's going to happen here? You'll probably run it into the ground again. So anyways I've been off in my own world and there hasn't been a whole lot of legitimate contenders for album of the year except maybe the new Sonne Adam or Necros Christos. Both of these bands put out stellar releases this year, and if you like actual death metal and not some clicky bass drum watered-downed technical pirate-metal jazz-infusion shitfest then check them out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lU650Yc3590 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJpS8NIJFyE Oh yeah, and new rules: Gr31lly's and Mrbling's opinions are no longer considered opinions. They are authoritative declarations. Ready.... set...... go!

New Toxic Holocaust is pretty good if you like your thrash a bit more metal than most.

The new Opeth album cannot be discussed here since it's not metal.

NO! The Misfits are not metal. They are extremely generic punk. Now quit it.

Sgt. Slobber posted:I just got into metal about a year ago, and my favorite bands are Metallica, Anthrax, Sonata Arctica, Iron Maiden, a7x, Ozzy, Buckethead, and Dethklok (just because it's funny). What else might I like / got any good recommendations for me? Bolt Thrower.

I think the Misfits' biggest influence was on black metal... at least their recording methods and production quality.

Efilnikufesin posted:Why the hatred for pirate metal? Because it's a tired old gimmick where fat nerds who think pirates are cool get to listen to generic accordions layered over cock-rock guitar riffs while pretending they are living in a year where electric guitars never existed. It's like gangster rap about proofs by induction or 80's synth-pop about heterosexual relationships. It doesn't go together and everyone involved in those scenes are laughing at you constantly while you dress up like a tool thinking you're awesome. Basically we're better than you.

This is why there's the Gr31lly rule in the OP. Also, Arghoslent is amazing, I think they are the only melodic death metal band I enjoy. EDIT: And The Chasm. EDIT2: And Infinitum Obscure, but really I guess all the mexican death metal bands fall under "melodic death metal" CRIP EATIN BREAD fucked around with this message at 15:22 on Oct 26, 2011 |

QPZIL posted:That's what I figured. But their interviews sort of dance around it. "Oh, ha ha, yeah, we uh, we don't consider ourselves a NSBM band. I mean, we share SOME of the NS views, but I mean, it's all about the MUSIC, ya know?" They also refuse to ship their CDs to Israel. Grand Belial's Key's Kosherat is a really good album, though.

I saw Black Sabbath something like 5 or 6 years ago with the original line up, and Bill Ward was jamming the gently caress out of his kit. gently caress Sharon.

Cannibal Corpse may be my favorite band to see live. They play every song perfectly live and the sound is always good. Corpsegrinder was an excellent choice as a new frontman.

rxcowboy posted:With that in mind, what else should I look into? I appreciate the anti organized religious themes of most black metal as much as the next guy, but I'm more interested in hearing a band that isn't afraid to take a risk. I would rather hear an album that takes risks and makes some big mistakes than a flawlessly executed album that is basically a thematic rehash of material covered by other bands. I already have a shitload of albums like that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpPLOw0-874 I'm a sucker for Grand Belial's Key.

I've pimped these guys out before, but I'm going to do it again because I just introduced someone to them and their only full length is easily in my top 10 death metal albums (and possibly metal in general) of all time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-R4xq9mgssY Perfect 90's death metal, although I think their label hindered their success and they ended up putting out an amazing EP, and then disappearing forever.
