someguest
03.22.12 | we do listen to the best music here |
Funeralopolis
03.22.12 | @spirit: and yet I've managed to give you all this music in such a short time. |
SpiritCrusher2
03.22.12 | yea yea w/e |
YankeeDudel
03.22.12 | Ive gotten into some good stuff thanks to these chumps just in the couple weeks of being here too. This site aint half bad. What I like about it is it isnt just a metal or rock or indie or punk or hip hop or electronica site. It has everything and allows everyone to talk and share their favorite music from all over the spectrum. Thats why I joined here because I like alot of different shizz. It fits my taste perfectly as Im mostly a Metal/Rock/Alternative guy but like to mix it up. So yea sputnik... you iight for a bunch of nerds. |

03.22.12 | what are these super rare albums...
and where can i find them |
Funeralopolis
03.22.12 | yea sputnik rules cus it is the only site where people aren't like 'if ain't country it is screamo' or full of overbearing metalheads who are like 'if it ain't kvlt as fuck it whoever listens to it deserves to die' . |

03.22.12 | "what are these super rare albums..."
yea I expected comments like this, but where I come from (Croatia), these albums ARE extremely rare. 99% of young people here listen to really shitty mainstream music, and I was lucky I had a few friends metalheads that showed me the right way

Scoot
03.22.12 | list is cool |
Funeralopolis
03.22.12 | I have never met someone in real life who likes this kind of music. Hell I only know two people who even like metal at all. |
someguest
03.22.12 | 99% of young people everywhere listen to shitty music
we are the 1% |
Funeralopolis
03.22.12 | you say miley cyrus I say metallica |
YankeeDudel
03.22.12 | Yea. Some people on this site act like people are just blasting these albums all the time on the street. They might be well known here and on other dark corners of the internet but the vast majority of people are only casual listeners and wont be able to name pretty much 9/10 this list. If I ever do meet someone who likes metal (not at a concert) its usually just the typical Metallica, Slipknot, Disturbed, Korn, Bullet For My Valentine type stuff. One person in college I knew loved In Flames and other melodeath stuff, and actually was in a band that performed "Swim" at a talent show lol, but thats about it. |
YankeeDudel
03.22.12 | HAHA this is him!! The singer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYhGIEdTHDI
Lived a couple floors below me in college. His band is just another melodeath band but they actually have a decent amount of views on some of their videos and I think are recording their EP now. Funny shit. |

In Finland even babies listen to metulz lol |
Funeralopolis
03.22.12 | metal is just noise and gives me a headache. Can't understand the lyrics? NOT MUSIC |
SaneTBP
03.22.12 | Well that's true. I can't understand it either. WHO THE FUCK WANTS TO HEAR SCREAMING AND GROWLING NONSTOP WITHOUT ANY MELODIES? Ugh. |
YankeeDudel
03.22.12 | Its funny because Ive gotten other people into much better music in my life. Alot of well known stuff here most people dont know about. Rock/Metal is definitely a dying breed in the mainstream these days. Yet when I come on this site there are people who have 250 GB of music who listen to 7 albums a day, half of them demos of bands nobody has ever heard of lol. And I thought I knew alot. Out of anybody I know I have the most music and listen to the heaviest shit which is why its crazy that theres so much other stuff out there.
Sane in America metal is definitely not as big as in Europe. Unless I went to a concert Im shocked if somebody even likes Alice In Chains or System Of A Down off this list. |
Shuyin
03.22.12 | the hell are you thanking them for? there is no CC in this list |
VinVal
03.22.12 | Really good list i enjoy like 9 out of 10 of these.
@yankeedudel you from NY bro? |
YankeeDudel
03.22.12 | To be fair Sane I love the melodies with my metal too man not gonna lie lol. Cant get into straight death/black metal yet really. I can see where somebody would say that about the heavier stuff. Thats a much more aquired taste that not everyone is going to understandably like. But Black Sabbath, Megadeth, and Iron Maiden? Who the fuck wouldnt like that? Crazies I tell ya. |
SpiritCrusher2
03.22.12 | haha sorry Shuyin, I have 3 CC albums but I haven't listened to them in ages |
Yazz_Flute
03.22.12 | Yeah I pretty much like all of these albums. |
Yazz_Flute
03.22.12 | There are only five albums on this list that I've never listened to (6, 12, 24, 26, 44). Impressive. |
Shuyin
03.22.12 | ah thats too bad, be sure to try the new album, its awsome M/ |
SpiritCrusher2
03.22.12 | well ok guys, if you want a band you've never heard of before here's one: http://kryn.bandcamp.com/
they are from my country and will be releasing their debut album soon. just listen to New Disease |
SpiritCrusher2
03.22.12 | Shuyin I checked their new video, that song (I can't remember the name, something with concrete lol) was great m/ |
Shuyin
03.22.12 | ENCASED IN CONCRETE! M/M/M/M/M/ |
YankeeDudel
03.22.12 | See IDK how to get into Cannibal Corpse and other death metal bands like them. Ive tried a million times but it just never
clicks with me. Meanwhile Im listening to Agalloch right now and this is fuckin beautiful. I know its not straight black
metal, which is prob why I like it, but the melodies and atmosphere are awesome. What do you guys do to appreciate
death metal? There just isnt any lyrics or melody to hang my hat on with it, but I guess it does the job of getting the blood
flowing. Its supposed to be the most inaccessible and pummeling music out there but IDK brothers. Im at a crossroads.I
guess its just not my thing. |
SpiritCrusher2
03.22.12 | "There just isnt any lyrics or melody to hang my hat on with it"
listen to Symbolic by Death. if you don't like that album, just give up from DM |
SpiritCrusher2
03.22.12 | and yes Shuyin, ENCASED IN CONCRETE!! m/ downloading the album now |
YankeeDudel
03.22.12 | I have that album. Thats a whole different thing than stuff like CC tho. Thats more prog death metal than anything and it actually does have some melody and understandable vocals. Whenever I hear straight up death metal though it all just sounds mostly the same to me. Its not bad but nothing really stands out no matter how technical it is in my eyes.
See I just listened to Encased In Concrete and it wasnt bad, but nothing stuck out or left a big impression. Thats mostly what happens when I hear death metal. It can get me pumped up but theres no memorable vocal parts or melodies. Its mostly 100 mph all the time and just growling incoherantly over fast riffs and blast beats. I mean how do you tell these bands apart from each other in that respect? Im sure a seasoned death metal listener can easily do it, but most people cant which is why they say its just noise. People are used to music being vocal/lyrical/melody driven so its a complete 180 for them when they hear death metal. |
mastille
03.22.12 | Sputnik does have awesome taste
Yay for most of this, Muses's OoS was a pleasant surprise in this mostly metal list
No White Pony though? *is sad* |
SpiritCrusher2
03.22.12 | yeah, I'm not a big fan of Deftones, sorry. but I'm glad you liked the list
|
SpiritCrusher2
03.22.12 | @YankeeDudel well if you don't like it, you don't. I can't really explain you that feeling of joy when I hear Graves of the Fathers for example |
mastille
03.22.12 | No Glassjaw or Fightstar either
Ah well I might look over this list should start looking into more metal and less post hardcore anyway |
Funeralopolis
03.22.12 | grave of the fathers is one of the best dm songs ever |
mastille
03.22.12 | Fightstar's Floods sounds like the best part of a good Muse album
Just sayin |
SpiritCrusher2
03.22.12 | yeah it really sounds like Muse. good song |
