[Music] Metal

Metalstorm is also quite decent for discovering stuff, most of the userbase is mroe into melodic metal and generally more famous stuff but most staff members and a probably minority of regular members tend to be into mroe obscure stuff and as such it gets lots of publicity there.

I knew of Dragged Into Sunlight from there and I am not even that much into sludge (unless post-metal).

Nah, too easy... I kid, I kid.

Some pretty decent atmospheric BM.

Btw Badpaladin, unrelated but do you know Celeste?

Not sure about the context -- band, person? Former no, latter possibly but I'd need refreshing.

It's a screamo/black metal hybrid band so it's somewhat on topic :P

I only gave them glancing listens but I like what they did so far and everything they did is freely downloadable from their site here.

You might end up liking it.

Those interested in Prog/Power should check out Symphony X

Good stuff.

Chopped in half is a great song, I'm not super into Obituary but of the handful of songs I have heard by them that's the best one

Does anyone else also think Obituary pretty much sounds like Deaths 2nd-3rd albums, except they do it over and over again without changing things up

Oh, also @Kliffharry I love Trivium too

One of the most solid albums ever made:

In my opinion, Obituary are the purest sounding Death Metal band, at least from all the bands I personally know. By pure I mean... with no technical/brutal/etc influences. The End Complete speaks for itself.

Some more good stuff:

I guess this is about the 18th time this is posted, but what the hell.

New A Million Dead Birds Laughing album is out and like the previous, freely downloadable.

Haven't had time to listen yet but I'm sure it's OP.

I personally love Angela's vocals. Feel free to recommend other bands that have female vocalist who does growling/screaming stuff. I would gladly check them out

Amaranthe - Hunger
This is a great band, it may not fit your request 100%, this band has 3 singers, a female vocalist, a male vocalist and a screamer. Sounds sick in my opinion.



Слот - 2 войны (The SLoT - 2 Wars)
If you don't mind not being able to understand a singer (due to language, not terrible screams) you may like this band. A good friend of mine showed them to me and they have a fair amount of good music, with this singer in this video at least. The other singer is decent but can't compare to Nooky. This is the Russian version, they do have an English version but it isn't quite as good as the Russian.



Straight Line Stitch - Taste of Ashes
Great song, singer is beast, I saw them live at Mayhem last year and was amazed. Feature with Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed.

[Duilliath]

Something a bit more old school.

[IngoDent]

Wow. You guys make me feel like such a conservative!

What I listen to (metal-wise) in alphabetical order, and my favourite song(s) of theirs:
Bathory - One Rode To Asa Bay
Black Sabbath - N.I.B, Voodoo, Mob Rules
Diamond Head - In The Heat Of The Night
Dimmu Borgir - Hunnerkongens Sorgsvarte Ferd Over Steppene, Alt Lys Har Svunnet Hen, For All Tid
Dio - Sacred Heart
Halford - Twist, Resurrection, Beyond The Realms Of Death (Judas Priest song, I know! But Halford makes it so awesome (With Rob Halford being the singer there, as well))
Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name, Remember Tomorrow
Judas Priest - Beyond The Realms Of Death, Painkiller, A Touch Of Evil
Metallica (favourite band of all time) - For Whom The Bell Tolls, All Nightmare Long, The Unforgiven
Motörhead - Ace Of Spades, Breaking The Law (Again; Judas Priest song, but kickass version), Overkill
Ozzy Osbourne - Goodbye To Romance, Mr. Crowley, Walk On Water (demo)
Rainbow; now technically these guys are hard rock and not metal, but by God and glory, they shall go in here, just for the merit of one of their songs: Stargazer. It's got Dio singing, so I'm going to bend the line and put it here.
Rammstein - Ich Tu Dir Weh, Bestrafe Mich

Not at all. Although I'm a huge Death fan, I hate Spiritual Healing. The only good song is the title track. And Leprosy, while still a good album, is the by far worst of the rest of their discography.

The only similarity between those 2 Death albums, and say, Cause Of Death, is that both are played in D standard guitar tuning

Personally I'd put Leprosy above all of their other albums except for Symbolic, then at that point I don't quite know which one I'd say is #1, both great but too different
