12.27.10 | First 5 are almost interchangeable. They're that good. Last two are dookie. |
GhettoIndieshit
12.27.10 | I still need to check these guys out |
myhigherpie
12.27.10 | They're an oddity. Something really unique. I can't think of a band that sounds even remotely similar to them. |
DoubtGin
12.27.10 | 3 below 7 and I'm fine |
Yazz_Flute
12.27.10 | Only have 2 and 5. Like 2 a whole lot more. |
Crysis
12.27.10 | I like The Eye Of Every Storm the best by far. |
Yazz_Flute
12.27.10 | It's so good. |
beefshoes
12.27.10 | 5 is my favorite. |
Relinquished
12.27.10 | Through Silver In Blood taught me how to be a real man |
beefshoes
12.27.10 | Fact: Listening to Neurosis will put hair on your peaches. |
kangaroopoo
12.27.10 | yeah little separates top 5 but TSIB + Storm my best, band owns |
qwe3
12.27.10 | 7 is waaaay too low |
qwe3
12.27.10 | also GhettoIndieShit early Isis sorta sounds like them but not as good |
eternium
12.27.10 | 5 and 7 really need to be higher. |
GhettoIndieshit
12.27.10 | sounds awesome, which album should i check out? |
eternium
12.27.10 | Either Eye of Every Storm or Given to the Rising and then explore more albums from there. |
myhigherpie
12.27.10 | I think Given to the Rising is the easiest to get into. That opening riff is the biggest hook in the world. |
qwe3
12.27.10 | I would start with Souls At Zero and just go chronologically from there.
|
qwe3
12.27.10 | listen to me i listen to neurosis more than anyone on this site |
eternium
12.27.10 | That would work if someone was already into sludge metal. |
eternium
12.28.10 | I've been trying to further explore post-metal lately. Been listening to Tephra, Swallow the Ocean, Minsk, and Omega Massif. |
qwe3
12.28.10 | not really, souls at zero is pretty accessible if you think about it. more much more so than the eye of every storm which is prob their most difficult (and in the end, best) release. in any case, this guy likes early isis, so the sludge thing wouldnt even be a problem if it existed |
qwe3
12.28.10 | i get bored with most post-metal :( also check this link out ghetto http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rAIK4sAQEM |

12.28.10 | "listen to me i listen to neurosis more than anyone on this site"
what |
eternium
12.28.10 | Nothing really touches Cult of Luna, Neurosis, or Isis but The Galilean Satellites from Rosetta and Affliction from Overmars come close. Only two albums though. |
Relinquished
12.28.10 | No, Pelican's Australasia is and their song "The Woods" are better than anything Overmars has made, saying that even when I really like Affliction. |

12.28.10 | "I've been trying to further explore post-metal lately. Been listening to Tephra, Swallow the Ocean, Minsk, and Omega Massif. "
so far behind where I'm at. and personally, swallow the ocean aren't that good, just another saturated band that doesn't stick out. |
eternium
12.28.10 | Australasia is really good but not that good. I still haven't listened to the EP. I absolutely love Affliction, especially for its versatileness, and I have Born Again on vinyl. |
eternium
12.28.10 | "so far behind where I'm at"
You're also older than me. |
Relinquished
12.28.10 | Age doesn't have anything to do with it, just started with Isis and Neurosis when I was 14. I also have Born Again on vinyl and it's a great album, but kinda like Affliction it drags. and I listen to shit loads of doom and drone. |
eternium
12.28.10 | Age has to do with that you've had more time to find and discover shit that I haven't. I got into the big post-metal bands at the same age but I've only had four years to explore not only post-metal but many other genres as well. |
qwe3
12.28.10 | ok fine:
quished and I listen to Neurosis more than anyone on the site
better?
|
Relinquished
12.28.10 | what about wizard |
myhigherpie
12.28.10 | Relinquished you should recommend me some good doom metal. I've been wanting to get into the genre.
As a guideline, I really liked Watching from a Distance and the first two Solitude Aeturnus albums. |
qwe3
12.28.10 | i dont want to explore post metal because most of it bores the shit out of me |
Thor
12.28.10 | The Eye of Every Storm
Through Silver in Blood
Times of Grace
Given to the Rising
A Sun that Never Sets
then the rest is kinda up in the air |
myhigherpie
12.28.10 | I feel like the only person who puts A Sun That Never Sets above everything x)
I really like the instrumentation on that. Flutes and violins are nice~ |
eternium
12.28.10 | A Sun That Never Sets is my third favorite. |
myhigherpie
12.28.10 | Well it is their folkiest album, so my affinity for folk is probably why it appeals to me so much. |
qwe3
12.28.10 | hmmmm im not sure maybe. |
qwe3
12.28.10 | holy shit i agree with thors list perfectly |
Relinquished
12.28.10 | "i dont want to explore post metal because most of it bores the shit out of me"
i promise I'll rec you the good stuff. yo thor, souls at zero is real good though.
pie, try Saint Vitus if you haven't. but if you really want to get into listen to Corrupted. |
eternium
12.28.10 | Corrupted is fucking awesome. |
qwe3
12.28.10 | ugh saint vitus and corrupted rule
rec me post metal bro.
also im liking the hosemobile |
Relinquished
12.28.10 | thank god qwe I didn't want to be the only one who liked that band besides my best friend. trying to see what redsky thinks.
post metal...ok qwe Supercontinent and Transmission0 |
qwe3
12.28.10 | dude its such a mash of styles but its so interesting. mathy post rockish stuff. sorta like battles and dmst had a baby
sweet will check out those
|
Relinquished
12.28.10 | yeah but the thing is that album came out in 1999, before battles. sucks that the band broke up, but I grew to love conglaciation (the process of). |
qwe3
12.28.10 | yeah i noticed how early it was. surprised me. |
Relinquished
12.28.10 | so unknown that album is it's unfair. it was so influential too. |
