May 14, 200521 yr Every forum must have a couple of metalheads at least. I am wondering if there is anyone with the same or similar tastes as myself. Here are some bands I like. Graveworm Anaal Nathrakh Dimmu Borgir Slayer Burzum Mayhem Cradle Apocalyptica Bethlehem Darkthrone Emperor What about you guys? \m/
May 14, 200521 yr I have heard of some of those bands but i dont really listen to them. I listen more to metallica and slipknot.
May 14, 200521 yr Eh, I can't cope with any black/deathcore/Satan-worshipping bands such as Mayhem, Anaal Nathrakh and Burzum etc. So I don't listen to it, since I like to hear what the hell they're singing about. Don't take that the wrong way though, if you like it, that's totally super, I don't respect you any less for it. We all like different things. :) With that said, I listen to: Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne, Edguy, Avantasia, Sonata Arctica, Stratovarius, Dragonforce, Nocturnal Rites, Nightwish, Hammerfall, Led Zeppelin, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Lordi, Dream Theater etc. I prefer the melodic and symphonic part of metal. // Azvi.
May 14, 200521 yr I wouldn't call myself a metalhead, I prefer bands like Deep Purple, Rainbow, Rush etc. Metal bands I do like though are Metallica, Dream Theater, Pantera, Black Label Society and Symphony X.

I listen to Stratovarius, Sonata Artica, Dream Theater and so on. Hell, I even listen to classical sometimes.
May 14, 200521 yr Listened to a lot of apocolyptica recently...dunno if trivium count as metal but they're awesome.
May 14, 200521 yr Don't forget Blink 182 and Good Charlotte! you deserve to die horribly for that comment
May 14, 200521 yr Skid Row, Warrant, Dokken, Extreme, Quiet Riot, W.A.S.P. Judas Priest, Annihlator, Cacophony, Cyronic Temple, Diamond Head, Dio, Armored Saint, Black Sabbath, Immortal, Danzig, Dream Evil, Edguy, Gamma Ray, Heaven's Gate, Kreator, Manowar, Opeth Just to name some that haven't been said yet
May 14, 200521 yr Some my fav bands are Slipknot, System of a Down, Iron Maiden, ACDC, Breaking Benjamin, Kill Switch Engage, Mudvayne, Disturbed, Black Sabbath, Ozzy, etc.... :P
May 14, 200521 yr Author Ah, Opeth & Immortal, two of the bands that got me into the great music I listen too today! Isis are very similar to Opeth, but much harder to find.
May 15, 200521 yr Mayhem, isn't that the band where the guitarist shot himself and another band member ate parts of him? Also, i remember one of the members dug up a corpse, cut off the head and took it to a fancy dress party. Sorry, but i don't care what music they make, they're a bunch of wackjobs. I love my metal, but i can't be doing with all that crap. Edit: looks like i remembered rightly: It's one thing to wear corpse paint and adopt creepy stage names, but something else entirely when a Swede named Dead (real name Pehr Ohlin) turns out to be a self-fulfilling prophecy. The singer proved true to his namesake early in the band's history with that most metal of deaths - a self-inflicted shotgun blast to the head. Guitarist, black metal icon, and shameless self-promoter Euronymous (real name Oystein Aarseth) rushed to take a picture of the aftermath, which appeared on Mayhem's following album in full-color, brain-splattered goodness. Not content to leave it at that, Euronymous made necklaces from the pieces of Dead's shattered skull and ate his brains. Great stuff. Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time.
May 15, 200521 yr System of a Down they're supposed to bring out a new album soon arnt they. ne1 kno if its been leaked yet? :P
May 15, 200521 yr System of a Down they're supposed to bring out a new album soon arnt they. ne1 kno if its been leaked yet? :P Yes it has. Anyway, I know this song from Halo 2 by Breaking Benjamin, it's amazing, but I dunno what it is called. :\ Member of #darkwebz.
May 15, 200521 yr don't know much about metal, but i hear some of my friends talk about it everynow and then. they talk about dillinger escape plan, ed gein, cannibal corpse, cattle decapitation, and other bands with funny names like that. i dont know what they say about them, im usually laughing about it to much.
May 15, 200521 yr What about: As I lay Dying It dies today Underoath Trivium Winter Solstice Arch Enemy Atreyu Cannae Converge Figure Four Lamb of God Sinai Beach Just to name a few. :wink:
May 15, 200521 yr What about: As I lay Dying It dies today Underoath Trivium Winter Solstice Atreyu Cannae Converge Figure Four Lamb of God Sinai Beach Just to name a few. :wink: No, its a metal topic
May 15, 200521 yr Isn't Zep medal? If so, how can you forget them? This is the way the world ends. Look at this [bleep]ing shit we're in man. Not with a bang, but with a whimper. And with a whimper, I'm splitting, Jack.
May 15, 200521 yr Some of my favourite bands: System of a Down Lamb of God Cradle of Filth Dying Fetus Cannibal Corpse Six Feet Under Slipknot(their old stuff is a lot better than their new stuf) Metallica(of course) Those are just the ones i first thought of, I like many more though. Pm me and add me in game anytime to talk about metal :wink:
May 15, 200521 yr Evergrey Arch Enemy Opeth Dream Theater Slayer Black Label Society Anathema and Neurosis if they count as metal. A recent study shows that 92% of all teenagers have small purple pet elephants named Jack. Put this in your sig if you are one of the 8% who like to do the fandango on Wednesday afternoons

Not content to leave it at that, Euronymous made necklaces from the pieces of Dead's shattered skull and ate his brains. Great stuff. Well, Gorgoroth's singer is going to jail for beating up a guy, the guitarist is going to jail because he raped someone, and the old bassist is already there because he ate someone. And the old drummer commited a suicide in 1999 :shock: By the way, Varg Vikernes (session bassist for Mayhem album De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas) killed Euronymous in 1993. Read more at http://www.burzum.org/eng/library/article52.shtml - Part 2 - Euronymous And for not being totally offtopic: Metal rules. Death,black,thrash,power: anything goes. Except for sold-out bands (Metallica, Slipknot) or hardcore/metalcore/nu-metal (which isn't even metal by the way :roll: )
May 15, 200521 yr I'm more into classic metal, Iron Maiden especially. Actually I'm a Maiden fan for life, and a collector. I like some of the names on your list, but in general it's too heavy. Heavy isn't bad at all if there's good melodies but most of those don't include a lot of melody. In Flames is a brilliant example of very heavy, but yet still melodic and complex music.
May 15, 200521 yr Isn't Zep medal? If so, how can you forget them? Zeppelin are classic rock. Dreaming of that face againIt's bright, and blue, and shimmeringGrinning wideAnd comforting me with it's three warm and wild eyes

I listen to Stratovarius, Sonata Artica, Dream Theater and so on. Hell, I even listen to classical sometimes. Sonata arctica owns :D some bands azvy didn't mention, bit more on the heavy-ish side. Hypocrisy. In Flames. Lordi (not realy "heavy" but its metal... some kind of metal) Shadows Fall (not a bad band at all) Visions of Atlantas (not heavy, but awsome) and i also agree 100% with azvys bands >.<
