Deep Purple maybe

I haven't listened to much of their stuff but I hear they were the origin of that kind of music.

Holy Diver is an awesome song btw :)

man thats hard mmmmm....... almost all of my orchestra bands are power metal

[QUOTE=Holy Diver]Ok, I'm looking for a band that uses a lot of orchestration in their songs. I don't want a heavy metal band (at least not a speed metal band or a band with growling vocals), but more of a hard rock outfit. Kinda thinking along the lines of songs like Rainbow's "Stargazer" or Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir".

Suggestions?[/QUOTE]
The Red Paintings, they have a full time cellist and violinist.

im thinking about buying Mushroomheads cd XIII and i liek metal nu metal n stuff r they any good and worth my money n sry for doign that illegal thing ill read the rules haha

can anyone recommend some good marillion?

I recently dowmloaded some Katatonia and really liked it. Can anyone reccomend me some other songs or albums by them?

It'd probably help if you said the songs that you have already.

[QUOTE=The Cynic]I recently dowmloaded some Katatonia and really liked it. Can anyone reccomend me some other songs or albums by them?[/QUOTE]
I have no clue what you've heard but these are some of their best albums:
Brave Murder Day
Viva Emptiness
Tonight's Decision

You can't go wrong with Katatonia though.

My bad. I downloaded July, I am nothing, Saw you Drown, Help Me Disappear and Omerta.

Anyone care to recommend some immolation and some vader?

I only really know early Immolation ([i]Dawn of Possession[/i]/[i]Here In After[/i]) so far, so I'll recommend [i]Dawn of Possession[/i]. I think "Those Left Behind" was the first song of theirs I heard.

Can someone recommend me an album by Municipal Waste? Ive heard very good things about them.

[I]Hazardous Mutation[/I]

Litany full on slays.

[QUOTE=Apocalyptic Raids][I]Hazardous Mutation[/I][/QUOTE]

Thanks, i'll look for it.

It's been in the Daily Upload a number of times, Daven. You might want to search your email. If you're lucky a link could still be active.

[QUOTE]Litany full on slays.[/QUOTE]
So that's their best? I've only heard [I]The Art Of War[/I], and was actually wondering which album is best.

That'sa good idea. :thumb: I dont remember seeing any of them in TDU though.


Edit: Just found two albums, thanks.

Yeah the link for [I]Waste 'Em All[/I] is still active. It's alot rawer than [I]Hazardous Mutation[/I], though.

I like it the most. I haven't heard everything though.

I asked this before kind of, but I couldn't find the posts. I need stuff that sounds similiar to Electric Wizard/Black Sabbath/other similiar sludge or stoner metal.

Recommend a song, any song. :)

Ah, much <3

Can anyone recommend any bands that could possibly be described as progressive/technical sludge? Im thinking along the lines of blessing the hogs, mastadon, keelhaul.
