what are the best CDs by Europe? I noticed that I really like that song "The Final Countdown". Its incredibly chessy, but I like it. :naughty:

[QUOTE=G_Mac07]I'm looking to get more into black metal. I haven't heard much at all so far, and the bass seems to be a lot less prominent for me to really like it. So, can someone recommend me some black metal bands that are fairly prominent in the bottom end? thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]
Black metal in which you can actually hear the bass, and it's not just copying the guitar:

Watain
Leviathan(IMO some of, if not the best and most atmospheric black metal ever created.)

Hey guys, can anyone recommend me some metal bands that don't have much screaming or growling?

I like bands like, Masterplan, Edguy, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Megadeth, Dream Evil, Dio, Helloween, Stratovarius, Dragonforce, Firewind, Hammerfall...

Any more bands like these would be great. Thanks a ton.

Can somebody suggest me what Dream Theater album to buy?
I was thinking of getting Train of Thought or Awake, but any suggestion is good. If you have the chance, plaese explain why I should get that album.
Thanks!

Images and Words seems to be many peoples favourites, although I started with ToT and thought it was brilliant. Awake or Scenes From A Memory wouldn't be bad choices either, but I&W is what I'm recommending you.

Thanks for all the black metal stuff to guys. :thumb:

Can someone reccomend me some Kreator please, I want a kind of thrashier album, I listen to alot of slayer iron maiden sepultura ect any ideas to get me started off.

Pleasure To Kill is what I hear to be there best album. But I'm no Kreator expert.

Coma of Souls is a good album, and Pleasure to Kill is supposed to be.

/deja vu

Yes, Pleasure to Kill is definitely a great album.

I wasn't going to make a new thread to ask this, and I figured here would probably be the next best place to ask. If it's not, ignore this post. Anyway, would some be kind enough to upload a song each by Emporer, Leviathan and Mayhem. I'm looking at getting into these bands and don't use a p2p.

Stop posting in the thread faggot. :cool:

Hey guys I'm back and I'm here with another "this or that" question

I want to buy a Judas Priest and an Iron Maiden CD but I don't know which one to buy first

As for Priest: I was thinking either Painkiller or British Steel

As for Maiden: I was thinking Killers or Fear of the Dark

Anyone have any suggestions which one I need to get first to start my collection?

Priest - Painkiller

Maiden - Killers

For Iron Maiden, you should definitely get Killers.

For Priest, either is good, but I prefer British Steel.

What would people say is the best Zappa album? I have a lot of Mp3s of his stuff but I want to go and buy an album.

Oh and The DEPs best work.

And I would say Painkiller.

I'm not sure what the BEST Zappa album is...but you should try out We're Only In it For the MOney for when he was with the Mothers. If you want some more accessible stuff then try out Over-nite Sensation.

By DEP you mean Dillinger Escape Plan right? Well thats what I'm assuming. In that case Calculating Infinity i think is their best. But Miss Machine is really good to.

queensryche added to what bartender suggested.



for zappa, try hot rats. its pretty accessible. either that or apostrophe.

also, try dillinger escape plans ep with mike patton, Irony is a Dead Scene.

Thanks, already got Queensryche though.

i would recomend any led zeppelin album, they are all great and you will be hooked.

*waits for munky*

[QUOTE=3rdplanet]What would people say is the best Zappa album? I have a lot of Mp3s of his stuff but I want to go and buy an album.[/QUOTE]

Freak Out! is the only one I can personally recommend in full, but it's excellent. What I've heard of Hot Rats is good though, and it's supposed to be also excellent.

[QUOTE=3rdplanet]Oh and The DEPs best work.
[/QUOTE]

My personal favourite (from what I've heard) is the Irony is a Dead Scene EP, but that's most probably because it's only an EP, and it has Mike Patton on vocals. As far as albums, I'd recommend Calculating Infinity over Miss Machine.

I just heard a song by Decide, Scars of the Crucifix, and I really liked it. Can someone recommend me some similar bands and some good songs by decide?

Cheers metalbassist777, PinkFreud and Bartender, you all recommended different stuff (:lol: ) but I think I will try and check out Hot Rats first. Was thinking of getting Miss Machine because I love Setting Fire to Sleeping Giants (which isn't very representative of their work) but will consider the other ones.

can somebody recommend me fast power metal bands besides dragonforce, sinergy and hammerfall thanks

Blind Guardian. You may also enjoy Children of Bodom.

[QUOTE=Heavy0metal0freak]can somebody recommend me fast power metal bands besides dragonforce, sinergy and hammerfall thanks[/QUOTE]

Galloglass, Helloween, Dream Evil, Manowar and Rhapsody.

If you like Sinergy, you may enjoy Children of Bodom, which also features Laiho.

You may also like 3 Inches Of Blood, though they also have harsh vocals.

can someone tell whats the best smashing pumkins cd

[QUOTE=deftones/tool]can someone tell whats the best smashing pumkins cd[/QUOTE]
Try either "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" or "Siamese Dreams".

Anyone have an opinion on the best Thrice CD?

Aeely good power metal band is BLoody Mary, im not sure if theyre local but look em up, theyre great

What are some good Dillinger escape plan cds and opeth cds to buy?

What are good Dream Theater and Vai songs?

Does anyone know how long the God Forbid CD is? I've been thinking about buying it, but I don't want it to be on;y 30 minutes long.

[QUOTE=GenuineImitation]What are some good Dillinger escape plan cds and opeth cds to buy?[/QUOTE]
Dillinger- I personally prefer Miss Machine to Calculating Infinity because it is much more diverse, while Infinity is pretty nonstop with the onslaught.

Opeth-All of them. Good starting place is Blackwater Park.
