Can someone recommend me a good thrash metal band?

thanks

Exodus - Get Bonded By Blood and Tempo Of The Dam.ned
Sodom - Try Agent Orange and Persectution Mania
Kreator - Get Pleasure To Kill and Coma Of Souls (althouth any of their first five albums are worth hearing)
Dark Angel - Darkness Descends
Sadus - Illusion/Chemical Exposure (here's a link to the whole album in mp3 [URL=http://nuclearwinter.bestmusicpages.com/]Sadus - Illusions/Chemical Exposure[/URL] (not sure if it works though)
Overkill - Try The Years Of Decay
Vio-lence - Get Eternal Nightmare or Opressing The Masses




That should be enough to get you started, and i'm sure you know the big four etc.

[QUOTE=Todzumirjetzt]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[/QUOTE]
Try Tool, Porcupine Tree, Dream Theater.
Dream Theater have a lot of shred/technical guitar/keyboard work but they also have a fair amount of melody.

Try Watchtower, i posted one of their songs in the YSI upload thread.

Hi all, just want some bands recommanding :) Currently I am into Prog metal, Dream Theater, Green Carnation & Opeth. But I want more! I think the new Green Carnation album is dire but Light of day, day of darkness is amazing. Can you recommand anymore bands like these?

Posted in the wrong bit before, so here it is : >

Anything that is from the 70s/80s that's popular, has some nice guitar riffs, and has some sing-a-long-able lyrics... suggest me songs by like Clapton/Cream, ACDC, Rush, Hendrix, Led Zep, Beatles, Pink Floyd, or anything that really fits an oldies genre.

If you like Dream Theater, Liquid Tension Experiment is a must listen to band. Same with O.S.I and all their other side projects which can be found off their site.

This may be a good website for you [url]http://www.progarchives.com[/url]

Other quick tips; Pain of Salvation, Superior, Threshold, Symphony X and Rush (they aren't metal but they were a huge influence on the Dream Theater guys.

Looks like a interesting website, Thanks

Also, try Yes for good prog rock

I think you just described Biffy Clyro, they mix time sigs all the time, and have a great rhythm section, though the guitar may not be what you are looking for.

Try the songs The Weapons are Concealed, Joy.Discovery.Invention and something like My Recovery Injection.

If you can find Being Gabriel give that a listen it's a fantastic song but it is hard to find.

symphony x is for you
as well as most other prog
maybe some dream theater or pain of salvation,
on the other hand, try some a prefect cirlce,

killer tracks of the 80s
 

Im makin a compilation album and id like your recommendations regarding the best rock/metal tracks of the 80s, please.

[QUOTE=matt_39]Im makin a compilation album and id like your recommendations regarding the best rock/metal tracks of the 80s, please.[/QUOTE]
Make sure you have some Megadeth. Some tracks you may want to include are Peace Sells, Mechanix, Wae up Dead, In My Darkest Hour, etc.

[QUOTE=matt_39]Im makin a compilation album and id like your recommendations regarding the best rock/metal tracks of the 80s, please.[/QUOTE]
Dark Angel - Darkness Descends
Megadeth - Peace Sells
Slayer - Raining Blood
Anthrax - Caught in a Mosh
Exodus - The Toxic Waltz
Iron Maiden - Run To The Hills
Death - Zombie Ritual
Ozzy Osbourne - Mr. Crowley

Should cover some of the metal part.

I don´t believe this is against the rules, since the name of the thread is "the official MUSIC recommendation thread", so I´d like to ask for some good bebop jazz bands recommendations. And before someone starts flamming me, yes, I tried the Jazz & Funk forum, but unfortunatelly it takes years for someone to reply you. Thanks! :thumb:

OK!!! This is the thread...


Does anyone have a good clue as to some songs that sound like Tool - Disposition? I want to make a CD full of these kinds of songs. Not really for meditating, but kind of relaxing music, the kind of music where you don't have to think about what you are listening to. Suggestions?

can anyone recomend some groovy acid rock tracks like the soft parade by the doors. thanks a lot

I'm just listenig to Days of the New's first cd. I forgot how much I liked it, is any of their other albums worth looking into?

[QUOTE=PinkMaiden]can anyone recomend some groovy acid rock tracks like the soft parade by the doors. thanks a lot[/QUOTE]

Avalanches - Run DNA is kind of cool.

Funny, I've tried burning my own compilation of Disposition-like songs. I really like the song but I've never heard any song very similar to it. Instead I included a lot of "relaxing" music that are mostly instrumental and that have similarity in Disposition's "Mood". It included : Mogwai, Sigur Ros, Explosions in the Sky and Air.

Here are a few tracks from the CD:
Mogwai - Close Encounters
Mogwai - Kappa
Mogwai - Burn Girl Prom Queen
Sigur Ros - Njosnavelin
Explosions in the SKy - Only Moment We Were Alone
Air - Playground Love
Air - Alone in Kyoto
Disposition included of course.

I listen to it mostly when I'm doing my homework. Give it a try.
