and it begins!

I'll start with the most important metal band of all time...

BLACK SABBATH

*blasts cephalic carnage*

12/15/2006 12:55:35 PM

Blah Dragonforce has dominated my car for like a month now

12/15/2006 1:02:51 PM

i'n not too big into power metal...sonata and iced earth is about as far as i go

12/15/2006 1:36:45 PM

In Flames - goliaths disarm your davids

This was the song that really got me hooked into metal. I didn't have any way of finding great metal until I got to college. All I had before that was Master of Puppets.

I must have listened to this song 100x through. It was so different from anything else I had heard up to that point.

I love Metalocalypse.

Murderface is definitely my favorite. MUR-MAID-DER MUR-MAID-DER! br00tal.

I've been on an Arch Enemy binge as of late. Chronologically going through their albums. Stigmata ranks up there as a favorite. Their guitarists are both very very sick.

Can't say I'm that big a fan of See You Next Tuesday, just doesn't seem like their songs are that thought out?

12/15/2006 3:39:47 PM

Celtic Frost

12/15/2006 3:46:08 PM

lamb of god

12/15/2006 4:09:05 PM

I'll second Celtic Frost

12/15/2006 4:57:33 PM

Black metal fans need to check out Xasthur's new album "Subliminal Genocide." One of the best metal releases this year, along with Celtic Frost's "Monotheist"

12/16/2006 3:43:54 AM

oooh i've been meaning to check out Xasthur's new one. I got hooked on them with Telepathic with the Deceased.

Don't really have much to add to this thread other than the usual stuff I rant about, so I'll just give a big

\m/

HELL YEAH

12/16/2006 3:54:59 AM

Between The Buried And Me

12/16/2006 5:27:57 AM

^ahaha

12/16/2006 10:59:23 AM

^cmon now I love that band too

Their self titled will forever be one of my favorite albums.

12/16/2006 12:35:29 PM

this is my favorite band at the moment...in the pelican/isis vein...LISTEN

12/16/2006 12:39:58 PM

^^ for sure.

and i actually havent listened to a ton of metal lately. need to get some new material for sure

12/16/2006 12:47:29 PM

I don't know how I feel about the influx of all this metalgaze. One side of me really enjoys it, but the other side of me says that these bands are just being trendy.

I compare it to all the faux death that's been floating around as of late. I know more than one person including myself who deemed down tempo stuff the next "in" thing.

blasted politics!

12/16/2006 12:59:16 PM

Whitesnake!!! \m/

12/16/2006 1:06:41 PM

black dhalia murder is what ive been listening to lately

12/16/2006 1:14:00 PM

the closest thing I get to metalcore is All Shall Perish...otherwise I'm pretty elitist I guess about what is metal (especially anything labelled specifically as death or brutal) and what isn't. BTBAM definitely isn't. Not saying they aren't a great band, just saying it ain't metal, ya dig?

12/16/2006 2:54:09 PM

^^ idk if it is metal or not but Miasma is one of my favorite CDs

12/16/2006 2:59:55 PM

^x5 yea it does seem there are tons of bands doing it right now...i listen to a fair bit of isis and that is about it...i happen to think that these guys (irreversible) do it better than most and they are young

12/16/2006 8:30:27 PM

I agree.

they do it quite well.

12/16/2006 9:32:40 PM

who cares about isis these days? that band is a fucking snoozer. i will be going to charlotte to see them on their next tour for the opening bands, though...jesu and torche. sweet. i've heard jesu sucks live, but i like to make my own decision about that. torche is daaamn fine live.

12/16/2006 10:34:05 PM

i think i am the only person alive that doesnt like torche

12/17/2006 4:25:38 AM

I don't get how Isis is a snoozer, but TORCHE of all bands is intriguing to see play live. You want to talk about fucking constant drone...man.

Anyway, I just saw Necrophagist and Skinless last weekend, and will definitely be attending Maryland Death Fest this coming year with Cynic, Brutal Truth, Origin, Psycroptic and a host of other fantastic bands that you could never see anywhere else.

12/17/2006 8:49:02 AM

I about fell asleep at the Isis show.

then I left.

12/17/2006 10:53:14 AM

whence in the hell did skinless and necrophagist play???!?!!??! fuck! that's the kind of shit you gotta make sure a brotha knows about

I was thinking about taking a road trip for the Maryland Death Fest...

"You want to talk about fucking constant drone...man."

your definition of drone needs some serious revision.

****OFFICIAL HATEBREED- SATISFACTION IS THE DEATH OF DESIRE POST****

12/21/2006 3:00:56 PM

As paerabol said, All Shall Perish, is pretty fucking awesome and brutal. I would say definately worth checking out if you are into that. Also a local-ish band, Giant, is some pretty rad down tempo shit, reminds me of Pelican and what not.

12/21/2006 3:42:39 PM

I'm more into old cannibal (the chris barnes era), suffocation (just kindof 'rediscovered' effigy this week \m/ ), decapitated, deicide, hate eternal, and just brutal death...I'm into the technical and progressive stuff too but the older brutal stuff just deos it for me for whatever reason. I never could follow those *-core bands...but ASP sits right on that fence and I dig it anyway
