03.15.09 | None of those are bad bands, but still. I'm not really a fan of Death Metal, but here's some "intelligent" stuff (even if they seem like obvious choices).
Arch Enemy
At The Gates
Opeth
Underoath
older In Flames & Shadows Fall
Death
etc. |

03.15.09 | Cynic's Focus would be a good pick, I suppose. Not too extreme, yet fairly hard, and definitely "intelligent". Might open up his mind to other types of music, as well. If you don't mind him liking -core, Converge may work. Oh, and In Mourning, obviously. |

03.15.09 | I was unaware that Meshuggah was simple and commercialized. |
foreverendeared
03.15.09 | yeah what Zoo said. Death. But rec one of their more versatile albums like The Sound of Perseverance |
Manic_
03.15.09 | Meshuggah have been a Headbangers Ball band since the 90s.
but I'd recommend Emperor |
Underachiever
03.15.09 | Get him into prog rock that focuses on plenty of bass and drums (lots of prog bands really) |
Klekticist
