and what the is post metal ( thought neurosis was sludge)??? is that some fluff stuff like post rock?

 

I'll take a guess and say post-metal is basically hard rock. Some guitar distortion and a bit more bass and drums. Or like Turbo-era Judas Priest.

 

 

 

Anyway, if you feel like some heavier Black Metal, then check out Archgoat. The album Wh*re of Bethlehem is pretty good.

Post-Metal is just a heavier version of Post-Rock. Though it seems to have a greater tendency to include vocals than Post-Rock does.. And I've heard of Neurosis before, but never checked them out. Thanks for the recommendation, I'll look into it. :)

 

 

 

Cyco, try out Alcest. They're fairly popular, so you may have heard of them. I only just discovered them. Like.. 10 minutes ago. Well, I've had their album for a few months, but I never listened to it until now. I'm really digging the Tristesse Hivernale demo. Supposedly it's significantly different from their other releases, so if it's not to your taste, you could try out another one.

For you, Intriguing, I recommend Coheed And Cambria. Listen to Welcome Home first, that's a good song by them.

 

 

 

I do apologize if you listen to them already.

Sacramentum - their first album.

Post-metal is the hipster garbage of metal.

 

 

 

Boris, Cult of Luna and a few other related sludge/doom bands.

If you're into skull-crushing death metal, try Suffocation, specifically their debut album Effigy of the Forgotten.

Iron Saviour. Good ol' fashioned heavy metal. :thumbup:

Try Gamma Ray, Iron Savior is a side project of their guitarist.

 

 

 

My last.fm. I haven't exactly used it a lot as I usually download the full discography if I like the artist, but it should give you a general idea.

Opeth

 

 

 

and I know about Suffocation, cool tech death but not as good as Atheist.

 

 

 

I hold Bolt Thrower as the best death metal band anyway, few others have done anything for me.

Melt-Banana, a Japanese Noise Rock band. I'm pretty sure you'd like them.

I know of them and have music by them. Sugoi desu~

 

 

 

I take it you'ver listened to Bolt Thrower, but if you haven't, do so. Plus they're English and I don't have a huge amount of English metal that I like..

Hm....Just found a video of them on Youtube

 

 

 

The only guys i can compare it too is Slipknot

 

 

 

So listen to some slipknot, I Guess.

Kataklysm, you'll probably like them if you like death metal.

The Bezerker.

 

 

 

Good old mix of death metal, grindcore and techno. They also wrote some really amazing lyrics (IMO) which really disturbed me. This song probally has my favourite lyrics of all time, which I've got pinned up on my wall.

 

 

 

[hide=]"I know what I have whitnessed. Now it is your turn.

 

Prepare yourself for a journey into a world where

 

each new step may give you a better understanding

 

of your own reality."

 

 

 

The uncreative juices flow from all but a selective few

 

and even those they tend to be wasted.

 

You have taken pride in a lifeform that you think you know

 

but what you do not know is it's rotting.

 

It is so unfortunate that this is how our world must be

 

but why must I accept reality, is this reality?

 

How can I exist amongst you people when I feel this way

 

when all that seems so wrong is everywhere.

 

 

 

A world without substance feeling so superior

 

I am discontent with lies and with ineffective lives.

 

Should I grieve for mankind or live out my life

 

to be free of pain I'll want it back again.

 

So to be one with man I must be false to myself

 

any effort's futile for my life is just mine.

 

I have visions of worlds that are unparalleled

 

my attempts are in vain to walk this earth without shame,

 

FOR BEING HUMAN.

 

 

 

This is my reality and you do not have to accept it

 

you are only human with excuses and complaints.

 

Couldn't you be something greater come on now you know the answer

 

you are so absorbed with your own pathetic lives.

 

Why should I feel pity for you I don't think I know the answer.

 

have you ever thought about opening your closed eyes?

 

What is it that you're afraid of, don't you want to see yourself,

 

couldn't bear to see yourself as I see you.[/hide]

Powman3, I already listen to Coheed and Cambria, but thanks. They're a great band, aren't they? :)

 

 

 

Ragen, I've seen you around heaps on this thread, but I'm still not completely sure what you're into. I'm just going to recommend Blut aus Nord. French Ambient Black Metal. I don't think it's what you generally listen to, but no reason not to listen to something a little different. As for albums, try The Work Which Transforms God or MoRT. Ignore the stupid name of the song on the video I linked.

Primordial, especially the To the nameless Dead album.

 

 

 

 

 

Sorry if you already know them. :P

You should try One Man Army And The Undead Quartet, a really good Thrash/Death Metal band. Try anything from the album 21st Century Killing Machine.

Try Hypocrisy, it's one of the few death metal bands I like, especially their album The Arrival.

Even if you don't like metal, listen to Agalloch.

The texture of the soul is a liquid that casts a vermilion flood

 

From a wound carved as an oath; it fills the river bank a sanguine fog

 

These arms were meant to be lost! Hacked, severed and forgotten

 

The texture of time is a whisper that echoes across the flood

 

Its hymn resonates from tree to tree, through every sullen bough it sings

 

These boughs were said to be lost! Torn, unearthed and broken

 

Earth to flesh, flesh to wood, cast these limbs into the water

 

Flesh to wood, wood to stone, cast this stone into the water...

DJ Scotch Egg The only good Nintendocore. Check out Scotch Chicken by him as well.

 

 

 

Enjoy!!!

Uhmm... you know almost every metal band in the world :? . I'll take a shot in the dark and recommend Zyklon, great black/death imo.

Haha, thanks for the compliment, but I hardly know all of them. I looked on the Metal Archives and there are 21,000 registered under just Death Metal... I have heard of most of the popular ones though. ;)

 

 

 

Anyway, check out Tiamat. I think you'll like them.

Timeghoul

For Adio: Farscape

 

 

 

Although the chance that you know it already is pretty big. Lisa Gerrard made this album together with Klaus Schulze. Since you love Dead Can Dance and a lot of things Klaus has done, you can't go wrong here.

Porcupine Tree (dunno how you feel about psychedelic/prog rock, but you seem to be really open-minded)

I presume you like Merzbow? If so then you might like Whitehouse.
