SickoKid 02-11-2005 03:50 PM

Can someone recommend me some other music that is along the lines of Tool, APC and Opeth? Progressive type stuff is what i'm looking for. Thanks

What do you have against them? And thanks for the other reccomendations.[/QUOTE]

Meh, I suppose power metal isn't everyones bag, like mine for example.

Each to his own.[/QUOTE]

I really like power metal, I just don't like Stratovarius much.

Band - Albums - Songs

Thrash -
Megadeth - Peace Sells... But Who's Buying, Killing is my Business... and Business is Good, Rust in Peace - Holy Wars, Peace Sells, Wake Up Dead, Rattlehead, Skull Beneath the Skin, Loved to Deth, Tornado of Souls

Slayer - Reign in Blood, South of Heaven, Seasons in the Abyss - Angel of Death, Raining Blood, Postmortem, South of Heaven, Mandatory Suicide, Seasons in the Abyss

Anthrax - Among the Living - Among the Living, Caught in a Mosh

As for death metal I'd reccomend Morbid Angel's album Covenant or Altars of Madness and Nile's In Their Darkened Shrines and At the Catacombs.

EDIT: To the guy who asked for Anthrax, that song is off of Among the Living, a very good album to start with.

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 02-12-2005 02:04 AM

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.

[QUOTE=ReadBooks]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?[/QUOTE]

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

[U][B]Schizophernia[/B][/U]
-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

[U][B]Beneath the Remains[/B][/U]
-Beneath the Remains
-Inner Self
-Stronger Than Hate
-Mass Hypnosis
-Slaves of Pain
-Lobotomy

[U][B]Arise[/B][/U]
-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 02-12-2005 11:01 AM

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

Bartender 02-12-2005 11:08 AM

Ah. Sorry. Have some rep.

MAthiAS 02-12-2005 11:10 AM

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.

Can somone recommend me some Death Metal similar to that of Deacpitated??

IAJP 02-12-2005 11:45 AM

Napalm Death are pretty extreme.
Other than that I can't really help you, the 'Tender would probbably know though :thumb:

MAthiAS 02-12-2005 11:48 AM

Never listened to Decapitated... But Napalm Death are awesome, more grind though. I'd go check out the death heads thread.

Yeah, I read a story somewhere, the critics, the first time they heard Napalm Death, were so shocked, they thought it was a joke, how extreme their sound was :lol:

could anyone recommend me some Avant garde metal?
I'm really getting into Arcturus, but is there anything like them?

thanks :)

Bartender 02-12-2005 02:08 PM

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 02-12-2005 02:22 PM

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:

I can't, but ask in the death heads thread, you should get answers.

Det - good post, but this thread is for answering other people's recommendations, not just recommending whatever you like :) I may check out Therion more though, I've only heard a few songs. Incidentally, did you ever actually look into Hollenthon?
