Electric Blues then?

Maybe:

Jimi Hendrix EXP - Electric Ladyland,
Stevie Ray Vaughn - Texas Flood,

If you want old blues, electrified try out:
Muddy Waters,
Howlin' Wolf,
Buddy Guy,

amongst many others.

If you just want incredible skils, try Robert Johnson.

[QUOTE=Shadows Rise]Could someone recommend me some shred with a classical feel? Something relative to Malmsteen and Becker? thanks.[/QUOTE]

Have you checked Cacophony yet?

[QUOTE=IWJPBWB]I would get:

[I]Scream Bloody Gore:[/I]
This album combines Blast Snare with sheer power vocals, and some of the most intense Death Guitar work you could ever wish to hear. The whole album has a kind of Escape-age feeling, something nasty is lying beneath, and it wants to get out. The bonus and live tracks on the re-master make it even better.

[I]Standouts:[/I]
Zombie Ritual: Death Metal is born. And what a violent birth it is.
Land Of No Return: Fantastic bonus outtake track, which completes this album.
Re-gurgitated guts: Don't let the title fool you, this is beautiful.

[I]Leprosy:[/I]
This came out after Scream Bloody Gore. It's not as heavy, but the title track among others are some of the finest Lyrical/Musical songwriting ever commited to disc. Watch out for the instrumental interplay between Chuck, Rick, Terry and Bill. It's incredible, and has a post-Megadeth ryhthmic feel to it. Possibly my favourite.

[I]Standouts:[/I]
Leprosy: Pioneers of the 7:00 Death metal song, this is the title track, and instant stand out from their second album.
Open Casket: Probbably the most well known from this album. Well, for me anyway.
Choke On It: This is possibly the heaviest off the album. Still, absolutley incredible stuff. Chuck was so young when he created this (and SBG) it's unreal.

[I]Human:[/I]
This is comparitavely in the negative in terms of heaviness compared to some other Death. Allthough having said that, this album has some really solidly square compositions on it. Not to mention Together As One, which is a deffinite standout. Chuck introduces Wankery To Death Metal. Death Metal takes on wankery and gets best friends with it. :lol:

[I]Standouts:[/I]
Together As One: This is similar to Scavenger off the next album. A good all rounder.

[I]The Sound Of Percieverance:[/I]
Indeed, this album is the sound of percieverance. Many had written Death off by this point, but songs like Scavenger, and Spirit Crusher, it shows that Death could still pack a punch, and blow your ****ing ears off in the process. This was the original Death swansong. And it contains some Metallica style slower ballads. (BALLADS, DEATH? SCUSE ME?) But seriously, check it out if you like Scavenger. The drums and bass are very prominent throughout the album.

[I]Standouts:[/I]
Scavenger Of Human Sorrow: Bass, Guitar, Drum and Vocal solo maybe? Yeah.
Spirit Crusher: Building on the progression of Scavenger, this carves a niché as one of the best Death songs ever. :)

Thx dude, you really helped me. :thumb:

Could anyone recommend a Soilwork album for me? I've heard a lot of good things about them. If it helps, I'm a big In Flames/At The Gates/Dark Tranquillity fan, and I love albums like The Gallery, Slaughter of the Soul, Clayman, and Whoracle.

Thanks.

i would recommend all albums by in flames and WTF and COE by a7x. :thumb:

Read the first post of this thread, please.

[QUOTE=loathed]i would recommend all albums by in flames and WTF and COE by a7x. :thumb:[/QUOTE]

If that was directed towards me, thanks for the recommendation, but I already have almost all In Flames, as well as those A7X albums. I'm just looking for some Soilwork, since I somehow missed them during my huge Gothenburg phase.

A Predator's Portrait is a good place to start. Quite a bit heavier than their other releases.

Or, maybe Stabbing The Drama...toned down a little bit, but still pretty good.

Thanks for the help! I've heard that A Predator's Portrait is sort of similar to In Flames, so I think I might start with that. What is The Chainheart Machine like? I've heard that's their most original album.

Oh, well then I think I'll have a friend send me a song from that album so I can see what it's like. If you want I could upload it too.

Can someone recommend me a good Rush album?

[QUOTE=dr._feelgood]Can someone recommend me a good Rush album?[/QUOTE]

2112, Counterparts, or Moving Pictures are good starting points.

Guys I need some manowar and lots of it!

I can recomened Battle hymns and Triumph of steel. The first one is an absolute classic and the second one has Achilles on it which is one of my favorite manowar songs ever.

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]2112, Counterparts, or Moving Pictures are good starting points.[/QUOTE]
Perfect recommendations. Excellent albums by an excellent band.

I love the whole Prog Rock thing, and I've been wanting to bet into bands such as King Crimson and Porcupine Tree. What are some suggestions of what I should pick up based up on my love of these albums:

[i]The Yes Album[/i], [i]Fragile[/i], [i]Tales From Topographic Oceans[/i] (Yes); [I]2112[/I], [I]Moving Pictures[/I] (Rush); [I]Deloused in the Comatorium[/I] (The Mars Volta)

King Crimson - [i]In The Court of the Crimson King[/i]
Porcupine Tree - [i]In Absentia[/i]

[QUOTE=munky_magik]King Crimson - [i]In The Court of the Crimson King[/i]
Porcupine Tree - [i]In Absentia[/i][/QUOTE]
Thank you. I'll get on that right away.

You should also get Deadwing.

[QUOTE=Stormrider331]can anyone recomend me som testament....except for songs from practice wat u preach (cuz i hav it)[/QUOTE]
You don't have the Legacy!?

:amaze:.

But seriously, get The Legacy, it's a Thrash staple.


Songs you might want to try:

Dog Faced Gods,
Raging Waters,
C.O.T.L.O.D (Curse Of The Legions Of Death, this borders on Death metal actually),
Over The Wall,
The Haunting.


I can't honestly recomend the Legacy enough to be honest with you.

i think i should buy the Legacy quick....ur not the first person to recomend it to me...must be good :) .......but som other ppl sed the New Order is testaments best album.....any opinions on that?

and thnx!!

Yes, it's good.

But from first impressions I am feeling that you enjoy heavier stuff?

If these assumptions are correct, then the Legacy, no doubt. :)
