anybody know any bands like tool, except a perfect circle...iam kinda a noob in the whole tool scene

[QUOTE=GenuineImitation]Can someone recommend me some power metal other than dragonforce, kalmah and children of bodom.[/QUOTE]
They aren't neccesarily power metal but they are powerish. The band I speak of is Nevermore.

From what I've heard you should try Tweaker. Admitedly all that I've heard by them is the Doom 3 theme, but it did sound very Tool-esque.

I like Nevermore. Thanks anyway.

Can someone recommend me a band like Wintersun or Finntroll?

THX

Children of Bodom and Kalmah are kinda similar to Wintersun.

I've heard both of them, but im looking to something different. Thx anyways :thumb:

If you want something similar to wintersun try some ensiferum.

Reccomend me an Iced Earth album

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think thats the name of the band... they are metal sound a bit like Maiden?

Anyway, recommend me their best / most accessible album.

/downloads

[QUOTE=Vosk]Reccomend me an Iced Earth album[/QUOTE]


"Something Wicked This Way Comes"


Or maybe "Horror Show" or "Dark Saga"

There latest album The Glorious Burden is also a great album. Gettysburg is amazing.

Something Wicked This Way Comes is my favourite, you probebly wont like the debut, most people dont due to the vocals, the second i dont mind, but you can get Days of Purgatory, with most of the songs from the first 2 albums redone vocally with Matt Barlow, and some of the guitar is re-recorded as well.

There most accessible album of thier's is probably "Something Wicked this Way Comes"

If you want a more thrashy aggressive form of the band check out "Night of the Stormrider" or "Burnt Offerings". If you want a simpler more emotion form of the band check out "Dark Saga" or "The Glorious Burden"

Recommend me some Opeth please

Could you just recommend me some good metal. I already know the classics(Metallica, Iron Maiden, etc) and some bands like Children of Bodom but I would like to get deeper into things like that. Thanks.

Give Behemoth a try.

I personally would just recommend the entire Images and Words album. It's just brilliant and a perfect way to get into the band. Although, these choices are great. You covered the basics.

i'm trying to get more advanced in my playing. real hard stuff do you guys know any bands that will help me with overall musicianship?

[QUOTE=4stringguy]i'm trying to get more advanced in my playing. real hard stuff do you guys know any bands that will help me with overall musicianship?[/QUOTE]

You're a bassist I suppose.
Here are some fine examples of technical metal with challenging basslines:

Watchtower
Cynic
Atheist
Spiral Architect
Spastic Ink

And here's a weird jazz/grind bass - drums - vocals band: Cause for Effect.

[url]www.metal-archives.com[/url] is your friend ;)

I've just uploaded some tracks for the YSI thread that might interest you as well:

They sound like a cross between Metallica and Maiden (although they're closer in sound to Maiden) but with more power. They're best studio album is something wicked this way comes imo, but Alive in Athens sounds pretty good too. Also check out the song the reckoning from their new album (IMO the best song with their new singer, Tim "Ripper" Owens, formerly of Judas Priest).

I've just started to get into Death Metal and I just bought Cannibal Corpses Live Cannibalism album. I love the songs Staring through the eyes of the dead, Stripped raped and strangled, and hammer smashed face (the song titles are morbidly hilarious)
These guys Rock!!! Don't know about all that Growling though.

Hey does anyone here have Dimmu Borgir's Death Cult Armaggedon CD? I want to buy it but I want to know if it's a good cd before I do.

Thanx.

Can someone recommend me a band like Porcupine Tree.

THX

It's pretty mediocre. I wouldn't recommend it.

Guys: Tell me about Mekong Delta.
