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.

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?

I was trying to quote this in my above post.

Sorry my computer's being gay. I was trying to say that I was wondering the same thing about Setting Fire to Sleeping Giants.

Just get Mind Revolution and/or Timeless Departure. Both are excellent.

[QUOTE=Iron Man]Do you have Theli or Deggial?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, both are fantastic albums. :) IMO, picking up Kristian Niemann as a lead guitarist was nothing but good though...that guy is great, highly underrated. He's been on since Secret of the Runes, I believe.

Oh. Whoops...I can never get these "official" threads straight. :lol: Hollenthon...ah! Righto, I'll check 'em out. :) Hmm...their webpage hasn't been updated since 2002! :eek: Are they done? Listened to a few samples...sounds pretty cool so far. Symphonic black/death? So far, it's pretty much up my alley. :cool:

At least your post was intelligent and informative, giving some one information to actually interest them into checking out the band. Because we get ton's of idiot's in here just posting some random list that people should check out and leave...

munky_magik 02-16-2005 02:23 PM

When the search feature comes back online people should really start searching this thread for recommendations for certain bands.

I hope not..I'd heard rumours of them (well, him) starting work on a new album. I just remember you saying in two separate threads that you were thinking of checking them out, so I was wondering if you ever had :)

[QUOTE=Bobo]

Yeah, if everyone who just recommended in here (rather than asking for/responding to others) made posts like his, I don't think we'd mind at all, heh.
