can any1 offer a pretty thorough reccomendation list for janes addiction? something like they do for featured artists. I absolutely reccomend Three Days to any1.

What are some current good Blues Rock bands?

I want to get my friend into growling vocals, but i'm not sure where to start. Suggestions?

[QUOTE=TSASI]I want to get my friend into growling vocals, but i'm not sure where to start. Suggestions?[/QUOTE]


Start with melodic death and maybe metalcore bands and such things.

IE :

In Flames
Dark Tranquillity
Arch Enemy
At The Gates
Trivium
all That Remains
Lamb of God

etc etc

Then work in harsher and harsher vocals from other bands slowly.

Well, he likes that but not growling vocals such as death metal.

[QUOTE=TSASI]Well, he likes that but not growling vocals such as death metal.[/QUOTE]

So you want him to get into Death metal.

You sort of just have to grow to like that.

Try some Morbid Angel at first.

[QUOTE=hallowed_ironmaiden]IS The New Order any good by Testament[/QUOTE]
Its probably their second best. Get [i]The Legacy[/i] if you don't have it already.

[QUOTE=TSASI]Well, he likes that but not growling vocals such as death metal.[/QUOTE]


start him out on some Death maybe?

Give him some Lord Worm era Cryptopsy, and if he can handle that and like it, he will like pretty much any death metal vocals.

Other then that, I might give more suggestions later, but for now I have no idea other then just diving right into death metal growls.

does the avenged sevenfold song have n e thing to do with hunter s thompsons fear and loathing in las vegas? That band sucks as s anyway

can someone recommend me some kamelot and dragonland songs? thanks

[QUOTE=TSASI]Well, he likes that but not growling vocals such as death metal.[/QUOTE]

Force feed it to him, it's the only way. :p

Play him some Lord Worm era Cryptopsy, and anyting else with really brutal vocals.

If that doesn't work, you could always try Death, and Morbid Angel for starters.

I would definately not recommend Cryptopsy and Lord Worm to a DM newbie. Try [B]Quo Vadis - Legions of the Betrayed. [/B]

TSASI, i really do think if you want to get him into growling, start with softer opeth, work in some heavier opeth, move onto bloodbath, then continue until you reach lord worm era cryptopsy

actually, even if you're not a DM you might find it hard to get used to Lord Worm

Can anyone recommend me some King Crimmson and Dragonforce. Thank you

[QUOTE=GenuineImitation]Can anyone recommend me some King Crimmson and Dragonforce. Thank you[/QUOTE]
For Dragonforce I would definately go with [I]Sonic Firestorm[/I] and for King Crimson I only have [I]Discipline[/I] but that is a great album. I hope this is some help to you :)

For Dragonforce downloads you can check the Power Metal FG (sticky) and in particular these posts:

[QUOTE=Med57]
I can pretty much sum it up by saying that [i]Ritual De Lo Habitual[/i] is all that you need to get in my opinion, even though some of the songs are a bit too long. I haven't really heard any of their other stuff that's grabbed me to be honest.[/QUOTE]

123, Ritual De Habitual is an excellent album, but don't get me wrong, it has it's faults...

Unusual request time.

Give me any good, must have albums by any R&M band that begins with the letter 'E'

I've noticed a noticeable gap of any bands with such a letter in my collection, and im sad enough to want to fill this gap.

I only have Eminem in my collection, though there is some bands i have heard of...

Everclear - pop/punk i think so not really RnM
Evergrey - some kind of prog metal/rock i think...
Extol - Nu Metallish? Moses is a fan of these...have words with him.

Apparently that's another filter.

p[font=]o[/font]rnograffitti.

Also, try Echobrain. They may be worth a shot.

The Eagles? :)

Also, if you sort by first name, there's Elvis Costello (This Year's Model), Elliott Smith (Either/Or), and Elton John (Goodbye Yellow Brick Road).

[QUOTE=Med57]You ever listened to Explosions In The Sky, Ben? .[/QUOTE]

Those 2 were the ones that came to me about 5 seconds after posting. Cheers for recommending an album med too.

I can steal enough Eagles from my parents without having to buy my own. :)

I just bought Follow The Reaper, and I love it. I have only verry recently been getting into metal, straying from my prog and classic rock roots. I also love the Jester Race by In Flames.

Can anyone reccomend some more bands/albums similar to these?

Well you mighht like some other albums by CoB, like Something Wild, Hatebreeder, or Hate Crew Deathroll. But I think that Follow The Reaper is CoB's best work.

For similiar stuff to COB try Kalmah - [i]Swampsong[/i], and also material By Wintersun and Norther.

For similar stuff to In Flames try stuff by Dark Tranquility.

Someone recommend me Skid Row, Kiss, and Allan Holdsworth.

For Skid Row:

Check out their Self-Titled album, the Song Youth Gone Wild is one of my all time favorites.

Any Unique Covers by a metal band please. I've been listening to throwdowns version of baby got back and i need more covers!!!

[QUOTE=aphotic__713]Any Unique Covers by a metal band please. I've been listening to throwdowns version of baby got back and i need more covers!!![/QUOTE]
For really unique covers try anything from [i]French Can Can[/i] by Carnival in coal.
They're labelled as sort of avante garde metal, and do really interesting covers.
