Title: Good metal and or death metal bands?
Post by: Air tree on Mon, 23 June 2014, 13:45:49: I have been looking to expand my music variety and I thought metal and death metal might be a change of pace. Plus I know there is a few metal and death metal fans on the site.

Throw some names at me. yo

Post by: Frenir on Mon, 23 June 2014, 14:08:12: I've chosen most of these because they're more obscure and more likely to be new for you.
Bloodbath (http://youtu.be/UBfoMgllphs): My favorite death metal band.
Smothered (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k66PZL-rFqk): More Swedish Death Metal Only one album made so far, but check it out.
Carcass (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrvOIeMTSwM): Good old school death metal from England.
Svartsot (http://youtu.be/7UeaExkBH4k): Folk/death from my own country.
Demonoid (http://youtu.be/WU6lD9yy9Uk): Death, Only one album as well :/
Wintersun (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKkdR5RBK24): A very melodic (folk?) metal band.
Kverlertak (http://youtu.be/r7sIqyoRFiU): Hipster black metal/punk from Norway.
Satyricon (http://youtu.be/NQQdsKH3Qt8): Black Metal/Rock from Norway.

I've been jamming to Vanna, Revocation, Expire, and Unearth.

Also a billion votes for Kvelertak as Frenir pointed out. And my favorite death metal band is The Black Dahlia Murder.

I have already listened to one song by Bloodbath and I'm already. Amazed. Thanks for the suggestions :thumb:

Post by: JPG on Mon, 23 June 2014, 14:24:19: For some other kind of metal, here's what I have been listening to mostly for the last 12-14 years or so:

Stratovarius (Power metal)
Nightwish (Gothic metal, but in a very symphonic way and singer is awesome, but the signer left the group a few years ago)
Rhapsody (now Rhapsody of fire and Luca Turrili's rhapsody since split the group (peacefully) 1 year or 2 ago) (I don't remember the exact name of the genre, but it's some kind of fantasy metal)

All of these bands are not fully together now, but they have a good amount of albums that I still listen to since they are awesome!

I would second Kvelertak here (y)
One of my friends actually recorded his first album in Kvelertak's record studio! He got to hang with them quite a bit actually! Check out Smaagnom as well, only got one song on spotify so far, though.

Protest the Hero <3. I saw them in Montreal and they played Fortress cover to cover. There was much stage diving.

Metalsucks is pretty solid, even if Axl hates Megadeth for whatever reason. And if I read another Sergeant D. post, I might actually get eye cancer

Oh, and Thy Art is Murder

Post by: dorkvader on Mon, 23 June 2014, 17:58:30: I have odder tastes in metal I guess, but here's some good stuff that I recommend:

firstly though:
Quote from: Frenir on Mon, 23 June 2014, 14:08:12
Wintersun (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKkdR5RBK24): A very melodic (folk?) metal band.
I always quote Jari Mäenpää (who does almost everything in Wintersun) and call it "Extreme Majestic Technical Epic Melodic Metal (https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wintersun)"

Proressive metal:
Anubis Gate (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pF6UcqP-2z4)

avant-garde (arguably not metal)
diablo swing orchestra (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2mZVOd0jWY)

You want more yelly stuff? I got it! (CPTbadass should take a look at these 2 if he doesn't know them already. I know he likes yelly stuff)
probably progressive melodeath (I think?)
Ne Obliviscaris (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMRKBz89uRQ)

more traditional
Ennead (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU1kBWqVuJA)

I think this genre is called "blackjazz". Genre lines start to break down as you go further.
shining [norway] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILTtbeK6jPw)

and we musn't forget:
gojira (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGHlZwMYO9g)

'Cause Dave Mustaine is an *******? Good tunes though. And Sergeant D's posts make me laugh...even if they also kill off my braincells on a mass scale.
