[QUOTE=NicetoKnowyou]Whats a good symphony X cd to start out with?


Do they sound like Dream Theater at all? Also, does there singer "sing" or scream/growl.? ( I hate Screaming)[/QUOTE]


Get Devine Wings of Tragedy or The Odyssey. IF you like DT, you will like Symphony X. The singers sings and really well I may add. There is also a large Symphony X thread that you may want to check out while your at it.

Ok Thanks

Is the new ep from Bring Me The Horizon any good, and worth getting?

Can anyone recommend me some music in the style of Between the buried and me. If you have listened to their newest album Alaska, in a lot of their songs the guitarwork is very powerful, for example, the intro to the song "Alaska". And the chorus in "All bodies" when the singer says "We are just mortal souls, left to die" then the guitarist goes into an arpeggio type riff.

Could someone recommend me some metal/metalcore bands with more of those kinds of riffs? Thanks.

Try some of:
The Dillinger Escape Plan
Martyr AD
The Red Chord
Darkest Hour
Ion Dissonance
Glass Casket

Can anyone recommend me a nice list of some good bands that are similar to the likes of Audioslave and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers?

Also, what are the best "Muse" songs? I've only heard a few and I love them. (Stockholm Syndrome, Sing For Absolution, Butterflies and Hurricanes).

Last request now... can anyone point me in the right direction of the best drumming in Rock/Hard Rock. Name a few bands that the drumming is clearly a standout, but not too advanced like Rush.

Thanks.

earthtone 9.

Sometimes by the name of earthtone9, or ET9, if you go looking for things by them.

Im looking for some more classic rock, prog rock and alternative rock. Please dont say bands like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Tool or any other big name band. Im looking for some stuff you wont hear on the radio. Thanks in advance.

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]
Classic rock is just about the most general derivative of rock, so a bit more info on what you like might narrow things down. As it stands, try the James Gang, Free, Bad Company, The Yardbirds, The Animals, The Travelling Wilburys, Mott The Hoople, Hanoi Rocks, Jeff Beck[/QUOTE]


True. I guess I should have asked a less general question. Beck and The Yardbirds are great, but I'll check out the other bands. Thanks for the help.

Can anyone recommend me some Grind music, thanks.

Dillinger Escape Plan, they are grindcore right, I heard they were Math core which is a sub-genre of grindcore.

Check out Napalm Death.

[QUOTE=Remedy]Can anyone recommend me some Grind music, thanks.[/QUOTE]
An Albatross, Genghis Tron, Nasum, Pig Destroyer, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Leng T'Che

try Anathema, Katatonia, Violetine, Rocket Science and Powderfinger's album Double Allergic.


Question time: Are there any black metal songs that are melodic and have at least some half-decent production, while not being too extreme? Arcturus - Radical Cut is the song I heard that triggered my interest.

How about Dissection's Where Dead Angels Lie?

Borknagar and Solefald spring to mind.
You might want to check out Anorexia Nervosa and maybe even some Trails Of Anguish :)

Try anything off Dissection's [I]Storm Of The Light's Bane[/I]. Night's Blood is my favourite.

Also try Mother North by Satyricon.

I need 1 band that sounds a lot like Symphony X, notice that I only need 1 band because it´s for a school project....I don´t really want to explain it but i only need 1 band.

Adagio would do it for you.

Some Dream Theater could be compared to Symphony X
