[QUOTE=gaute]
Hey,

I just need help to discover new stuff. I'm fed up of the bands i'm listening to now and searching for new bands. My only restrictions are:

1.It has to be metal
2.It has to be very technical/complex

I also like progrsive **** a lot, for exemple Opeth.

Anyway, thanks for your help.

*Note : i posted this in the Rock/Metal forum not knowing their already had a thread for this going.[/QUOTE]

Hey, im in the mood for brutal s'hit. Like, i listen to KalmahChildren of bodom,Norther and Dimmu and all, and i like it, but its not... RRAAWWRRR enough. Bands like Arsis, or Aethist or stuff along those lines... actually even Mudvayne. Just the whole, on the edge, fast paced thing. anyone?

DVG.

Hmmm, Cryptopsy may be a bit extreme if you're a relative beginner. Try some Obituary. Anything off there first 2 albums is great, but in particular...

Chopped In Half
Find The Arise
Circle of the Tyrants (Although, it is a cover)
Gates of Hell
Slowly We Rot
Cause of Death
Infected
'Til Death
Dying

John Tardy is a definate RRRRAAAAWWRRRRRR vocalist, as you put it.

StreetlightRock 03-23-2005 04:46 AM

Cool, thanks guys, ill check em out.

DVG.

The Cynic 03-23-2005 01:15 PM

I'm debating to either get Deliverance or ****ation by Opeth. Can anyone help me out? Thanks.

Otherside 03-23-2005 01:23 PM

Do you have any other Opeth cds?

The Cynic 03-23-2005 01:42 PM

I just have songs on mixed Cd's that my friend burned for me like The Windowpane and In my Time of Need. But I don't know what albums to get because they're so expensive.

[QUOTE=The Cynic]I just have songs on mixed Cd's that my friend burned for me like The Windowpane and In my Time of Need. But I don't know what albums to get because they're so expensive.[/QUOTE]

If you like those songs definitely get D*mnation.

Although that album only really shows one side of their musical stylings.

Blackwater Park and Still Life have a good mix I feel, although still with less acousticy stuff than the metally stuff.

coolidgeALL 03-23-2005 01:52 PM

ok guys recommend me some music... If I like, Judas priest, maiden, metallica, Helloween, (etc.) what should I check out?

Triangle 03-23-2005 01:54 PM

I've recently got In Absentia by Porcupine Tree and was wondering what album I should get next of theirs? Thanks.

[QUOTE=Master.Of.Puppets]I've recently got In Absentia by Porcupine Tree and was wondering what album I should get next of theirs? Thanks.[/QUOTE]

Deadwing is out very soon (in Europe) and I'm guessing it will sound pretty similar to In Absentia as it's the follow up album, so you could wait for that.

I love the 2 CD Signify album though.

[QUOTE=Awfki]hey what are you favourite or in your opinion the best dream theater song?[/QUOTE]

'Take! the! Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime!'

Nah, I love Stream of Conciousness myself.

Although 'Take! the! Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime!' is fantastic.

Led Zeppelin- I through Physical Graffitti (I,II,III,IV,Houses of the Holy, Physical graffitti)
Cream- Disraeli Gears, Wheels of Fire

LedHead712 03-23-2005 05:00 PM

Is Carlos Santana's music good. if so what would u recommend

Doop 03-23-2005 06:56 PM

[QUOTE=Med57][I]Stag[/I] is probably their most poppy, accessible album, [I]Houdini[/I] is more experimental, and if you want their heavier stuff, try either [I]Maggot[/I] or [I]Melvins[/I]. They're all good, but obviously in different ways.[/QUOTE]
Thanks i'll check them out.

The Cynic 03-23-2005 07:56 PM

Yes it is, and he's an amazing guitarist. Listen to Smooth and see for yourself.

Also, search for Arcturus threads, there are a few floating around I believe.

I would recommend The Sham Mirrors myself.
