Kept it down to four from each (of their 'real' albums), so you don't end up just downloading the whole things.

[Thor]

Someone want to reccomend me some good alternative stuff? I'm open to pretty much any artist.

[3rdplanet]

Porcupine Tree is a good place to start ^

Especially In Absentia.

[epihasi]

Id like to know some bands sounding like:
-Slipknot
-rage against the machine
-Black label society

Especially some Slipknot-type would be great (vocal-wise), because i like corey's deeper voice than some Melodic death Metal Screams like CoB, although i love in Flames!...Thanks.
Epihasi.

Mushroomhead is pretty similar to Slipknot, both in music and vocals, but they experiment more.

[CaptainWaits]

Can somebody recommend me some "Quo Vadis"??

And is Dark Angel's "Time Does Not Heal" a worthy album??

[Bartender]

I've only heard one album by Quo Vadis (Day Into Night), and two unmixed mp3s from their forthcoming album, one of which, Silence Calls the Storm, is amazing, but I can't find either at the moment.

Day Into Night is great though, so I imagine they're just well worth checking out in general.

http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=08WCD1CNAABVV2EV5T3CH10HYO

^The opening track from Day Into Night.

[ToRidTheDisease]

Can someone recommend me some like sad/depressing (not like emo) songs? Other than Opeth.

[3rdplanet]

You could try ISIS ^ Panopticon has some quite sad sounding songs, that's the best I can think of right now.

Can someone recommend me some Faith No More? Similar to their Song Evidence, because it officially is amazing.

[Bartender]

Which album is Song Evidence from?

Just because I haven't heard it, so knowing which album it's from will help me give recommendations from other albums.

[LeperAffinity]

It says it is from their Greatest Hits in WinAMP, which doesn't help me :(

Lyrics site says its from King for a Day, Fool for a Lifetime.

[Bartender]

Oh, hah. I actually have that album, but I thought you meant a song called 'Song Evidence', not just Evidence.

Well those first four are from King For a Day, Fool For a Lifetime, and the second four are from Angel Dust, if it helps.

And yeah, I love the prices on Amazon at the moment. I'm waiting on several CDs from there at the moment.

[IAJP]

Can someone recomend me some great virtually unknown thrash metal?
I'm pretty familiar with the main five thrash bands:
Metalica, Slayer, Megadeth, Pantera, Anthrax etc.
And I sorta like Exodus, I'm looking for about three songs, preferably from three different bands, which sort of encompass all these styles.


Any recomendations would be greatly appreciated.

[Cocaine]

I've got quite a hefty favour to ask. Could anyone recommend me any band that is heavily blues influenced, without actually being blues? I have to present a media presentation on the blues, and I could use as many artists as possible. It can be in any genre, really. I just need some blues influenced music to show how much of an impact the blues had and still have on music.

[3rdplanet]

^ You could try Orange Goblin, but I'm not too sure it's bluesy, sorry, that's the best I can do. Oh! Gov't Mule? are they bluesy sounding?

Dark Angel, Kreator, and Testament, perhaps.

I need eastern asian folk music. Really.

[Cocaine]

Ah, yes, thanks, I totally forgot about Gov't Mule. If anyone else still knows anything please don't hesitate, even if the influence is slight. I'd be willing to hear anything, from hip hop with a blues influence to hair metal to whatever you can dish out.

[Bartender]

A good example of a (currently) easily recognisable blues influenced rock band, whether you like them or not, is The White Stripes. It's not so evident on White Blood Cells, but De Stijl (what I've heard of it anyway, and according to reviews) was more bluesy. I suspect you probably had them down already though, so I'm sorry I can't help more.

Could someone recomend me some Necrophagist?


If you're looking for Necrophagist absolutely buy Epitaph, although the vocals are sub-par, the guitar, bass, and drums are absolutely amazing. If you're into that style, check out Miss Machine from The Dillinger Escape Plan and Ideas of Reference from PsyOpus.

[oolie221]

can anyone recommend me some Mars Volta songs?

All of De-Loused in the Comatorium. Buy that album immediately, it will become one of your favorites really quickly. It is absolutely amazing. They've also got a new album coming out on March 1 entitled Frances the Mute. That is sure to be incredible as well.

[IAJP]

Dark Angel, Kreator, and Testament, perhaps.

I need eastern asian folk music. Really.
Thanks dude.
And as for asian folk music..hmm..

Dude, I'm sorry, I'm not really amazingly up on the southeast Asian style of music,

I do however, know a crap load about Indian music, so I'll give you a few recomendations for it.

Ravi Shankar:
Raga: Jhimjhoti,
Raga: Patdeep,
Raga: Devgiri Bilawal,
Raga: Rasia.

All these works are pretty seminal, and very long, so you'll want to take that into account, but you really have to appreciate what kind of musician Shankar was, he was a legend and the only way to express it, I guess is through pieces like this.

(Ustad ) Ali Akbar Khan:
Raga Marwa (alap),
Raga Puviya Kalyan (gat in tintal),
Gauri Manjari,
Jogiya Kalingra.

Again, all extended pieces, I got a greatest hits (kinda scene) of this, and it had just three songs on it, so that tells you of the quality of the musicianship.

Meh, that marks my input on the Hindustani Classical Music genre,
The only other indian genre I know is bollywood, so here's some more tracks I guess.

Asha Bhosle:
In Aankhon Ki Masti,
Yeh Hai Reshmi Zulfon Ka Andhera,
Dum Maro Dum,
Chura Liya Hai Tum Ne - Mohd. Rafi.

You're really entering the cheesey world of Eastern music, and to be honest man, there's not much in Bollywood style music, a lot of it is incredibly tacky, cliché and not very well aranged. The first recomendations are a lot better, but this should be an O.K starting point to start understanding a lot more of music from the East

Hope some of this helps you,
:)

This thread is for asking for recommendations, and for replying to other peoples requests, not for randomly recommending music.

[IAJP]

The aim of this thread is this:

When someone asks for a recomendation, I.E: "Can someone recomend me a blues song, that has a slide guitar part?"

and someone who knows about the subject will answer:

"Yeah, Travelling Riverside Blues"

Throwing random recomendations won't usually go down well, but you're relatively new I suppose so we can forgive you :)

Exodus and Testament are really good for older stuff.

For newer thrash like music try Lamb of God and Children of Bodom.

[Huber]

Thanks

Rep++

[munky_magik]

Chldren of Bodom are Power Metal.

[ToRidTheDisease]

Chldren of Bodom are Power Metal.
They don't really have a main genre, but they have some thrash influence.

[Huber]

It didn't matter, I already know of CoB ;)

Hate Crew Deathroll did have a lot of thrashy stuff in it.

[munky_magik]

They don't really have a main genre, but they have some thrash influence.
They have a few obvious influences, but their sound has most in common with Power Metal.

[ToRidTheDisease]

Kind of.

But I would say they are Black Metal if anything.

[jpj]

I've never heard anyone call them black metal. I've only heard people call them power or melo-death, but I know nothing of metal so I dunno.

[munky_magik]

They're Power Metal with harsh vocals.

[3rdplanet]

A teacher of mine told me to give The Cure a try, so I did.

I'm really liking the stuff like Prayers for Rain and The Same Deep Water as You, and not that stuff like Boys Don't Cry.

What would be the best album to buy?

Not sure if this should go in this thread or pop-punk/alt. indie forum.

[Bartender]

Alt/Indie is the best home for The Cure. You'd probably be recommended Pornography or Disintegration, but don't trust me for it, ask them.

[Kingofdudes]

Kind of.

But I would say they are Black Metal if anything.

The vocals dont make the genre

[ToRidTheDisease]

The vocals dont make the genre
I know they don't.

It's just the keyboard work, vocals, looks, and overall feel of the band. It's just what I see them as.

[ToRidTheDisease]

Anyway, can someone recommend me some good Amon Amarth albums and songs?

[^Dream~Theater^]

Bloodshed is my fave Amon Amarth song.

[Bartender]

I know they don't.

It's just the keyboard work, vocals, looks, and overall feel of the band. It's just what I see them as.

They're power metal, though, and definitely not black metal.

[Iron Man]

Anyway, can someone recommend me some good Amon Amarth albums and songs?

I have Versus the World, and I like it alot. It comes with a bonus disc with their first three EPs I think. "Vintage Viking", as my friend put it.

[3rdplanet]

I really like Setting Fire to Sleeping Giants by The Dillinger Escape Plan.

Is much of their music like this? I have been told no, which would be dissapointing (sp?)

In this thread you cannot just say a random band or song to recommend for all to listen to. People have to ask for a genre, band or song. If you know a good genre, band or song to recommend, that fits the question, then you post in this thread.

Example:
Person 1: What is a good Opeth CD?
Person 2: Orchid

[metalliman1066]

Can someone recommend me some Pantera and Opeth
thnx !

[Timidus]

Well since I'm a HUGE Pantera fan I think most of their songs kick *** but here are some great ones

Walk - Vulgar Display of Power
The Art of Shredding - Cowboys from Hell
Cemetary Gates - Cowboys from Hell
Heresy (my favorite intro of all time) - Cowboys from Hell
10's - The Great Southern Trendkill
Drag the Waters - The Great Southern Trendkill
Mouth For War - Vulgar Display of Power
5 Minutes Alone - Far Beyond Driven
I'm Broken - Far Beyond Driven

[xizoesira]

Anyway, can someone recommend me some good Amon Amarth albums and songs?

Versus the World is their best album from what I've heard, which is everything except the new one.

[3rdplanet]

^ That Pantera list is very good, I would add This Love to it aswell though.

Opeth, hum, try stuff off of Still Life and Blackwater Park for their best material.

Uh, I need some help, this is a sort of fixed recomendation.

I'm going into town tommorow, to buy 2112 by Rush, that's for sure.

But I'm not 100% sure what else to get, I was thinking, Hemispheres or Carress Of Steel, both by Rush.

Or maybe even a Dream Theater album, I.E which is the best Dream Theater album.

[MAthiAS]

Alright, my list of bands I need recammendations for right now:
Stratovarius
Kalmah
Norther

If you like Rush, I'd suggest Images and Words. Thats their least heavy album, and my personal favorite. You'd probably like Awake too, but I'd get I and W first.

[3rdplanet]

Yup if you are thinking of getting Dream Theater, get either Awake of Images and Words. Probably get which ever is cheaper, as they are both great, I don't know much about Rush so I can't really help.

[3rdplanet]

Alright, my list of bands I need recammendations for right now:
Stratovarius

Crystal Mountain and Voice of the Soul are great Death songs. Pretty much all I have by them, but they are my faves.

Symphony X wise, Fallen is easy to get and listen to. They are on my to check out list too, so any recommendations yiou recieve I will probably check out aswell.

On Dream Theater:
Train Of thought is Very Heavy and Shreddy.
Scenes From a Memory has heavy moments, mellow moments and lot's of technical moments. IMO it contains all of the classic Dream Theater elements, and is there most rounded album.
Falling Into Infinity is overal Mellow.
Awake is again a mix of Heavyness and Mellowness.
Six Degrees of Inner turbulence has it's heavy moments, and also it's mellow momments.

I have most of these over AIM if you want.

Yeah, of Symphony X I've only heard Sea of Lies, great song and its convinced me to check them out further. Thanks for the Death songs, anyone have any more recammendations for me?

[3rdplanet]

Metropolis Pt 2 is part of the name for Scenes from a Memory, and Scenes...is considered by many to be their master piece.

I agree, in part, Scenes has some cringe worthy moments on it.

[IAJP]

Norther
Blackhearted,
Betrayed,
Of Darkness And Light.

Symphony X
Into The Dementia,
Lesson Before Dying,
Through The Looking Glass (part I II III).

I'm afraid I don't know much by the other bands, sorry :(

[MAthiAS]

Cheers, thanks to everyone for that.

Its Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory

Lots of people say its their best, I disagree. Its a great album, but IMO Images and Words, Awake, and Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence are better.

[Bartender]

Alright, my list of bands I need recammendations for right now:
Stratovarius
Kalmah
Norther
Symphony X
Death

Stratovarius; my immediate reccomendation would be simply "steer clear" (unless you're already hugely into power metal, I suppose). If you're determined though, try Hunting High and Low, Millenium or Infinity.

Kalmah;
Heroes to Us
Burbot's Revenge
The Third, The Magical
Bird of Ill Omen
Heritance of Berija
Black Roija

Death - earlier;
Infernal Death
Evil Dead
Zombie Ritual
Scream Bloody Gore

Death - later
Flattening of Emotions
Crystal Mountain
Voice of the Soul
Suicide Machine

[MAthiAS]

i've been listening to bands such as korn, sepultura, rage, and system. what are some of their best albums/songs and what other good bands are along the same lines as them as far as quality and music type?

[Huber]

No RATM album will dissappoint you Get them all.

Systems first two albums are the better ones, but Steal This Album! is still worth picking up.

I don't know much Korn or Sepultra.

[CaptainWaits]

i've been listening to bands such as korn, sepultura, rage, and system. what are some of their best albums/songs and what other good bands are along the same lines as them as far as quality and music type?

For Sepultura, listen to these albums, and only these albums

Schizophernia
-From the Past comes the Storms
-To the Wall
-Escape to the Void
-Screams behind the Shadows
-The Abyss
-R.I.P (Rest in Pain)
-Troops of Doom

Beneath the Remains
-Beneath the Remains
-Inner Self
-Stronger Than Hate
-Mass Hypnosis
-Slaves of Pain
-Lobotomy

Arise
-Arise
-Dead Embryonic Cells
-Desperate Cry
-Subtraction
-Altered States


Also check out their Live album (Under A Pale Grey Sky Live), it won't dissapoint for a Sepultura fan, and that was the album that mainly got me into Sepultura. If you want, try Morbid Visions and Chaos A.D as well, but they're both weaker than the three albums above.

[Bartender]

I think he was saying that he already listens to Korn, Sepultura, SOAD and RATM, and wants further recommendations.

As far as further recommendations... for Sepultura-like bands, just check my post on this page with all the thrash recommendations. If you like Korn and SOAD, you'll probably like other nu-metal bands. I personally don't, but from what I hear Mudvayne is better than the rest.

Maybe Maudlin of the Well and Kayo Dot (less so than Maudlin.. though). They're the only two to come to mind. Hard to find though. I'd upload a Maudlin of the Well song for you, but I'm on a 56K at the moment.

[Det_Nosnip]

I've really been hooked on the band Therion for a while now...you guys should check them out!! Progressive/symphonic metal with full male+female choirs filling the vocal role. They have soloists ocassionally, and Christofer grunts once or twice in a blue moon (the band actually started as a death metal band before going the symphonic route), so it's a very unique and interesting approach to metal music. I'm really into the symphonic sound, bands like Nightwish, After Forever, and Symphony X, but Therion really takes it to the next level by employing over 100 musicians on their latest album and really exploring the possibilities of multiple singers. The band is fronted by the creative genius of Christofer Johnsson, an enigmatic prodigy who conceives of these huge, sweeping symphonic compositions despite not having any formal musical background. I don't know how he does it, but holy **** does he! :lol:

"Secret of the Runes" is a fantastic record, a personal favorite of mine. It's somewhat of a concept album, dedicated and inspired completely by Norse Mythology. It's probably the band's most technical album, with lots of sweet guitar solos and complex choir arrangements (very beautiful). I recommend "Midgard," "Asgard," "Muspelheim," and "Vanaheim" especially from this record, but I love every song.

"Lemuria/Sirius B" is the name of Therion's latest two albums, which were released together as a double disc package. I'm more partial towards Lemuria, but both are good. I recommend "Typhon," "Utharka Runa," "Three Ships of Berik Parts 1 and 2," and "Feuer Overtüre/Prometheus entfesselt," for an interesting musical reference to Rammstein (Rammstein style approach using bass/bari choir and symphonic music).

"Vovin" is often considered the group's classic, and has some very memorable songs. From this record, "Wine of Alluqah," "Birth of Venus Illegitima," and "The Rise of Sodom and Gamorrah" are particularly good tunes.

Check these guys out, they're awesome. :cool:

Songs -
Lake Bodom
Warheart
Silent Night Bodom Night
Bed of Razors
Wrath Within
Children of Bodom
Downfall
Follow the Reaper
Children of Decadence
Hate Me
Northern Comfort
Kissing the Shadows
Needled 24/7
Sixpounder
Bodom Beach Terror
Triple Corpse Hammerblow

Album wise, go for Follow the Reaper first. Then, if you like cleaner vocal style, then get Hate Crew Deathroll, if you don't, then get Hatebreeder.

Enjoy.

EDIT: Which Arch Enemy album should I go for, Burning Bridges or Black Earth? I have Wages of Sin, the first four songs are excellent, and the rest is mediocre. But I really like the Rare and Unreleased album that came with it.

And what Dark Tranquiltiy is better, The Gallery or Damage Done?

Well depends. They're Thrashiest album I'd say would be "Night of the Stormrider", and overall that's probably my favorite too. But "Burnt Offerings" is a wicked album too, but it's quote a bit different then the others. "Dark Saga" is they're softest work, and I think os very underated, cuase it's also a great album. And lastly "Wolf" is probably their heaviest work, and it's just as good as all the others.

Can some one Recommend me some wicked Thrash Metal? I mean WICKED Thrash Metal! Thanks. :)

[Bartender]

Well, what thrash metal to you already know?

Just so we don't make pointless recommendations.

[Spoonman]

To name a few

Dark Angel
Pantera
Mastadon(they are a little to high pitch and the drummer doesn't have a real metal style)
Gat-Rot
Dead Sun

I my friend has some good stuff I have heard but I dont know what it is.

any way just give me some intense, bassy stuff.

Mmm, intense bassy stuff, I'm up for that too.

[Freezing Moon]

I also want to get into more thrash.

I already listen to...
Testament
Slayer
Megadeth
Metallica
Sodom
Exodus
Overkill
Anthrax
Kreator
Possessed

Out of those I'm also looking for more Kreator, Overkill, and Sodom.
Of those I have...
Kreator - Extreme Aggression
Kreator - Terrible Certainty
Overkill - Horrorscope
Sodom - Agent Orange

[MAthiAS]

for Kreator, get Pleasure to Kill and Coma of Souls. And check out the new one, Enemy of God, but get the other two first. The people in the Titans of Thrash thread can help you out more than I though.

Pleasure to Kill will blow your mind man.
Check out Venom too...I'm assuming that you forgot to add Slayer to your list too.

Slayer was the second one, after Testament.

Alarum, an Australian death metal band, seem to want to be Cynic, so they should work. There's a link floating around somewhere, but I without the search function I don't know how easy it'll be to find.

Canvas Solaris are an American band, purely instrumental, but rather like progressive death metal instrumental than, say, Spastic Ink.

Sleep Terror are a band I only just found out about recently, and haven't had too much of a chance to listen to, but so far they sound great. (www.myspace.com/sleepterror)

Phlebotomized, another American band, who released an amazing album called Immense Intense Suspense, might also work for you, so check them out if you can.

I'm in to UFO, Captain Beyond, Cactus, Vanilla Fudge, Uriah Heep Hawkwind and Thin Lizzy, anything obscure I'm missing?

those arent really OBSCURE. more just lesser known. try out some frijid pink, ram jam, beck bogert and appice, blind faith, the minutemen, peter green's fleetwood mac, quicksilver messenger service, rare earth, robin trower, procol harum, rory gallagher, or wishbone ash.

good choice with the vanilla fudge though.

keep me hanging on :thumb:

[Stevie]

Ah..

I'm looking for a classical song that would be good to cover in a metal way, such as Mars Bringer of War, or something. Anyone know anything worth looking into?

[munky_magik]

Try some John Williams stuff, I.e Jurassic park , star wars, Jaws, Indiana Jones etc...

[Stevie]

Thank youz!

[LiquidBass]

Allright, thanks. I have heard a few songs off of the new one, and I like it, so I'll be sure to get the other two.

[MAthiAS]

What Arch Enemy CD is better, Burning Bridges or Black Earth?

[CaptainWaits]

Burning Bridges without a doubt dude
