5/5/2007 3:13:54 PM

more mainstream stuff if you are looking for stuff to get into

hardcore:

give up the ghost- year one (best hardcore album ev4r)
carry on- a life less plagued
blacklisted- the beat goes on
comeback kid- turn it around
the hope conspiracy- death knows your name
lifetime- lifetime
saves the day- can't slow down
set your goals- mutiny


metal/metalcore:

isis- panopticon
all shall perish- the price of existence
beloved- failure on
dark tranquility- character
unearth- the oncoming storm
misery signals- mirrors
dillinger escape plan- calculating infinity
poison the well- tear from the red
premonitions of war- left in kowloon

some good smaller bands

new cd is sounding good

5/6/2007 6:35:39 PM

ktcosent2112 has the only good list.

5/6/2007 9:20:55 PM

well, i dont want to get laughed at... but whatever

swift- any (so i agree with strata)
chimaira - the impossibility of reason
killswitch engage - end of heartache, desperate times
avenged sevenfold - bat country
devin townsend- terria (does this count?)
lamb of god- sacrament, as the palaces burn

preliminary

5/6/2007 9:29:16 PM

man are you gonna get reamed for that avenged sevenfold comment (but i think it is a good album too)

5/6/2007 9:34:40 PM

ashes of the wake is fuckin nasty... i just DLed it

by far my new favorite music

and i knew there would be one album in there id get scorned for

5/6/2007 10:17:53 PM

while im getting made fun of, i also liked protest the hero - kezia.

[Edited on May 6, 2007 at 10:58 PM. Reason : any album that i like most of the songs has my vote eh]

5/6/2007 10:57:50 PM

prayer for cleansing - rain in endless fall(a classic)
zao - where blood and fire bring rest (also a classic)
and hmm i'd say hopesfall - failty of words / no wings to speak of / satallite years

all of those are pretty solid albums to get you started with the metalcore genre haha.

Rob zombie- past present and future ( if best of's count )

5/7/2007 8:45:47 PM

while your list isnt bad blas, Deicide is the one group that never fails to make me change the channel. everything ive ever heard has absolutely no musical value, even by metal standards.

5/7/2007 9:17:51 PM

youre crazy. great death metal album. after that cd they fell off hard though.

5/7/2007 9:23:57 PM

maybe its just the stuff ive heard as of late that sucks so much. that or i just really hate death metal.

5/7/2007 9:43:31 PM

I'll back up Avenged Sevenfold - City of Evil. I know it's probably not a metalhead's metal, but I'm not a metalhead. All I know is that album is 71 minutes of well-written, well-executed music with no filler.

Flame on.

Not a huge fan of the genre, but Pantera's "vulgar display of power" and "far beyond driven" are two fantastic albums.
