Arkan - Hilal. prog. death metal with arabic music

|
Murmur
07.19.08 | Psychotic Waltz is pretty unique. They have almost a psychedelic atmosphere and are very technical. |
Athom
07.19.08 | Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors
Its not really like these but definately unique + it has garm (ulver) on vocals. |
Hawks
07.19.08 | Arcturus - La Masquerade Infernale
Really creepy, but awesome avant-garde/symphonic black metal. |
greg84
07.19.08 | Try Cog! They're not metal, but they're quite unique nonetheless. |
foreverendeared
07.19.08 | Psycroptic The Scepter of the Ancients |
Zoo
07.19.08 | Equilibrium (either album) and Manegarm (Vargstenen). Some of the best folk metal you'll ever hear in your life. |
BallsToTheWall
07.19.08 | In Vains new album
Cor Scorpii's, new album, fans of Mirrorthrone and Windir. |
Crimson
07.19.08 | Jrowa's recs are what you want, I wouldn't recommend Cor Scorpii, not that they aren't good, but they're not really as unique as the three from jrowa, check them out afterwards. |

07.19.08 | thanks for backing my recs up Crimson. those were the best i could think up, but i fell like i left some even more unique metal albums out... |
Crimson
07.19.08 | For some more, check out Dornenreich, Indigent and Oceans of Sadness, hell, I've reviewed all of these so yeah. The IN VAIN album is a must, seriously, think Edge of Sanity meets Thurisaz, absolutely awesome. |
BallsToTheWall
07.19.08 | Normally i'd be on top of this list like a fat kid on a cupcake but yeah, not today. Todesbonden, is a mix of world, balkan, celtic styles with great female vocals.
Get the new Celestia album as well, dark ambient, black with great melodies and productions.
Same for Forest Silence- Philoisphy Of Winter. |
flamethisuser
07.19.08 | Look into Agalloch's The Mantle if you haven't already. More folk-inspired and acoustic than Ashes Against The Grain.
Also, Cynic's Focus is a very jazzy progressive death metal album (if you haven't already). |
botb
07.20.08 | Wolves In The Throne Room. atmospheric/progressive black metal with post-rock influences.
Fear Before the March of Flames - The Always Open Mouth
more post hardcore, but the atmosphere is one of the best ever established on an album and it's very artsy.
the faceless - akeldama (probably already heard it and if so look into Born of Osiris's album)
btbam - colors (also probably heard that)
uhmm...
The Ocean - Precambrian?
|
Shoot Them
07.20.08 | Try Pantera |
MadnessUnhallowed
07.20.08 | Get some Avenged Sevenfold, I heard they're quite unique....
|
Jim
07.20.08 | for unique
type O negative
breed 77
cog
all are kinda hard rock anyway, but all unique |
SynGates
07.20.08 | I agree with Wolves in the Throne Room.
Also Gorod, best tech-death I've heard and they've got their own distinct sound. |
billy33
07.20.08 | agreed on the cog reccomendations, awesome band cog is |
Sempel
07.20.08 | Arkan - Hilal ftw |
kaospilot
