Ah someone who likes good metal. lets hope you stick along longer than some of the other metal fans who come and go.
I'm new to these fourms, so I'll stick around and see what this place offers, so far, I'm impressed by the amount of metalhead here (despite the nu metal/hardcore fans, but it's okay, they'll probably move on to different bands like I did.).
I'm not the biggest death metal fan, but I sort of trimmed away the ones I don't really like/don't listen to.
Im really digging The Chasm's newest album. I had it on my way home yesterday.
Ever listened to Electrocution? Inside the Unreal is one of the best death metal albums Ive heard.
I also noticed No Massacre or Atheist.
Do they still have any of the latest album left? I heard they limited it to 500 copies, which is, undenibly, a huge pain in the ***.
I've heard of Electrocution from the
Metal-Archives a
long time ago, but I never came around to listening to them. I have a shitton of old school death metal already in my lists, plus many other genres. I hate keeping track of it all, so I tend to avoid many new bands I find unless they're something omnipotently awesome. Such as Cynic.
I put Atheist in the Thrash Metal section because, well, I consider them Thrash at core, but with Progressive/Jazz/Death metal influences.
Massacre is meh, I'd rather listen to Death. Maybe I'm not listening to the right songs on their debut.
Some good bands there. Drudkh are one of my favorite bands at the moment. I actually got Ulvers Shadows of the sun for a fiver today.
Im really liking Nokturnal Mortums newest at the moment too, Ukraine is a rather epic track.
A few omission's that if you don't listen, I think you should.
Wodensthrone, Hate Forest, Winterfylleth, Old Corpse Road, Fyrdsman, Askival, Les Discrets, Vostok, Haar, Cnoc An Tursa oh and a band I know called Woodith Ole
,
Wodensthrone: Wodensthrone is a band I've been neglecting lately, I lurve WITTR, so I lurve Wodensthrone as well, but my black metal vibe has been off lately since it's summer. I like playing black metal and funeral doom during fall and winter. Sets an oh-so orgasmic mood for the music.
Hate Forest: Haven't really tried Hate Forest, but I know some members of Nokturnal Mortum where part of that band. If Hate Forest has anything that sounds like
Goat Horns, or
The Voice of Steel
Winterfylleth: Like Hate Forest, I've heard of this band. Never bothered to listen for reason mentioned above.
Vostok/Haar/Cnoc An Tursa/Les Discrets: Never heard 'em. Except for Les Discrets, but I have nothing to say about that band.
Woodith Ole: That's a ****ing awesome name.
Askival: Great folk metal, and it's even more amazing knowing it's pulled off by just one guy. Although, I heard he had some trouble with his clean vocals, and that it was caused by accidently consuming bubble bath soap, but I think that's just trolls trollin'.
Alright, but Dekapitator are better than every band on this list. And Antagonist's Self title EP is rather good too.
never got into Mercyful fate/King Diamond much.
I would really recommend Black Knight, Isen Torr, Angel Witch and Witchfinder General.
I'm more of fan of the Technical/Progressive thrash which is why I don't really bother with Death/Thrash bands such as Dekapitator. Bands like that never seem to offer nothing new to the table, but I could be wrong.
If you want to get into King Diamond, I'd recommend the albums "Them", Voodoo, and Abigail. Those are his masterpieces, and they certainly won't disappoint of you're into Trad. heavy metal.
I've heard of Angel Witch and Witchfinder General, not too familiar with Isen Torr and Black knight though.
Needs a bit of Warning, Reverend Bizarre, While heaven Wept, Pentagram, Moss and Blood Ceremony, but some pretty good bands.
Like I said before, I have a hard time keeping track of all the bands I'm into, so I tend to forget. I can't believe I forget freakin' Candlemass and Pentagram. Some one slap me for my inconvience.
Moss, Reverend Bizarre, and Blood Cermony aren't bands I'm familiar with. While Heave Wept and Warning are great bands that I shun too often. :/
Sorry if it seems like im picking it apart, im not. I just felt it was better to respond to your post that way, rtaher than just say, 'oh cool' when you've clearly gone to a fair bit of effort.
And I thank you for putting in effort, instead of using small talk. So many people I speak to can't managing one sentence out of their mouth regardless of topic and wonder why I don't talk them the next day. Small talk is okay everyonce in a while though, but it's good to at least try to make an effort form more than 3 words replies.
P.S. Do you play an instrument(s)?
