[QUOTE=freakmeeko]What's the best of Dream Theater and/or Rush that really flaunts its keyboard work?[/QUOTE]
For a DT song try The Glass Prison, it has great keyboard work.

[QUOTE=Creeping_Deth]Tom Saywer comes to mind with keyboard and Rush as does the Spirit of Radio.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, Tom Sawyer is a great song, and has some really cool keyboard work. In fact, it's just an all-around great song. I don't know Spirit of Radio, though.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]Iai, you want good acoustic Alice in Chains songs?[/QUOTE]
*slaps forehead*

Similar. SIMILAR.

:lol: Whoops. I'm not sure what to tell you then.

Sorry. I'm just frustrated by how immensely useless all the Official threads in this forum are.

Not all, but most. This thread is good, I just misread your post :/

You still haven't come to the Pink Floyd thread.

I think maybe it's just that few people have heard the Alice in Chains EPs.

I've no idea. Not enough of an AIC fan to know :)

The EPs I'm talking about are Sap and Jar Of Flies. Both are mostly acoustic, with some electric guitars for the lead work.

That's true.

is there like...a search i can use to look through this thread? so i can see if someones asked for this before?

I was wondering if someone could recommend some extreme music for me. I'm not to concerned with technical music, just as long as it's brutal. Right now I'd like it if someone could recommend some good [B]Grindcore[/B].

Bands I've heard of: Dying Fetus, Brodequin, Thegalvinwilhelmmillerquartet, er...not much other grind. Any good recommendations are great, whether it's grind or not. Thanks. links to sites would also be great.

Top right of the page, just above the postcount number of the first post, is the search function.

Grindcore albums to try;
Napalm Death (some stuff, mostly their earlier albums; try [i]Scum[/i], one of the defining grind albums)
Carcass - again, earlier stuff only (like Napalm, they moved to death metal later). Their grind albums are [i]Reek of Putrefaction[/i] and [i]Symphonies of Sickness[/i].
Brutal Truth - [i]Extreme Conditions Demand Extreme Responses[/i]
Brutal Truth - [i]Need For Control[/i]
Extreme Noise Terror - [i]Holocaust in Your Head[/i]
Terrorizer - [i]World Downfall[/i]
Total Fu[font=verdana]c[/font]king Destruction - all their stuff is up for download [url=http://welcome.to/total****ingdestruction]here[/url], I think.
Bolt Thrower are grind/death metal, and are awesome, so check them out.

Just for information though, Dying Fetus (not sure about Brodequin, and haven't heard of the last one) aren't really grind.

I'm kinda stuck.

What 'genre' would Where I'm Going by Down fall under? Need to know to try and find some more similar stuff. Does anyone have any recommendations for a person that loves that song for similar sounding songs/artists?

Don't know that song, but Down are stoner metal.

Yeah but this song is definitley not metal, it's acoustic, sounds very...American...I don't know the word for it...not folky, probably bluesy seeing as blues > rock ~ metal or something or other.

I haven't heard that particular song, but maybe Corrosion of Conformity and Halfway to Gone would do as similar artists. I can't upload anything for you to see at the moment though.

I just DL'd some Corrosion of Conformity and it's really good, but it's not quite I was looking for.

CoC are more metal than what it sounded like you wanted, yeah, but I thought it might be worth mentioning. Halfway to Gone might be closer.

Assuming you've downloaded some of their later stuff though, is that the kind of sound you were getting at with "American"?

Yeah that sound was what I was trying to get at.

Hello. I'm just back from Megadeth where Dungeon were the support act. Before the night I'd not heard anything by them....they played very well and the singer sounded a bit too much like Bruce Dickenson. Anyway, could anyone recommend me a few of their songs, or their best album.

Spank you.

Can anyone recommend some stuff by Maters of Reality? Thanks

can someone recommend me some bands like kalmah

[QUOTE=Mind Revolution]can someone recommend me some bands like kalmah[/QUOTE]
You probably already know Norther and Bodom...

And some people probably disagree, but I think they're a lot like At the Gates.

Not too much...youre talking about Kalmah right?

Is Frances the Mute worth the money? I mean I heard some pretty different comments about it. I loved De-loused and also the single from Fances, The Widow. Some say that there´s a lot of weird noise through the album, and that this is kinda bitching. But others say that the songs are great, with a latin vibe to it and also a great guitar work by Omar and John. So, is Frances "that good" or "that bad"?

It's good, but it's also that bad as well.

I say buy it, some of it really rocks, and the not so rocky bits you can fast forward.

Thanks for the advice :thumb: Any favorite songs? In which songs do John and Flea play?

Okay guys, which Judas Priest album should I buy, and why?(ok, you don't have to explain why). Either:
Screaming for Vengeance
Sad Wings of Destiny
Painkiller
Thanks.

I would say Painkiller AND I will explain.

Almost every song is awesome, the drumming is amazing, the vocals are different, so if you're used to Breaking the Law, it may be wierd, but again, awesome. Solos and riffs are amazing.

After that, I would say SFV because it's one of their defining moments.

I'm looking for a band with interesting rythm, not overly simplistic drums, and odd time signatures, preferably one with melodic guitars
Thanks in advance
