Opinion =/= fact.

I like a select amount of metal, it just can't be a really boring song (Tool).

[gorefiend]

yeah tool is pretty boring, i dont mind rammstien tho

Anyone here a fan of pantera?

[Split]

Opinion =/= fact.

I like a select amount of metal, it just can't be a really boring song (Tool).I'm speaking from a purely technical standpoint, not trying to be snobby, but I know a fair amount about music, being both a guitarist and pianist for about seven years now and in a band of my own. Whether or not something is music is not opinion-based (or at least it should never be). I do listen to Opeth, but only because they have a lot of melodic elements and musically are incredibly talented, i.e. all of Damnation...


P.S. Tool isn't metal at all. Mayhem is.

[Nitro Vordex]

Disturbed.

[spoiler-box]I'M KIDDING.[/spoiler-box]

[kurisu1974]

I like Satyricon very much (and most Norwegian and swedisch Black Metal for that matter), but I like the old albums of Satyricon much better. Nemesis Divina is awesome. :)

I play an instrument as well (drums) and I'm still a little hesitant to tell someone that their music isn't music.

On Opeth: Listening to them now. :D Even though Lopez isn't their drummer any more, he's still one of my current inspirations. I think he has separate brains for each one of his limbs. -_-

[Kylie]

I have nothing against any kind of music because people can like what they wanna like (that's what it's all about), but metal fan fights are the best. I witnessed something like the following on PSN Home last night:

HOW DARE U ******* SAY THAT SLIPKNOT IS ****. I WILL COME OVA THAR AND **** YOU UP, YOU DBAG

lolol they suck balls man listen 2 real metal, idiot

YA UR MOMS BALLS U SON OF A *****... :lol:

[gorefiend]

Haha, last night my band and i had a fight with some scene kid's over msn

we are black metal =]

Well this is how it wen

Them:LIStesn to real music

Us: sorry... we already are

Them: black metal is shit all metal is shit

Us: well then dont talk to us

Them:some metal is good

Us:*blocks*

Who here plays?

I play bass and i do death grunts

And i can do satyricons vocal (satyr's)

[Neith]

Mainly listening to (and don't give me 'baawwwww that's not metal', because I couldn't care less when the genre is so widely blown apart):

Spoilered incase it turns out to be a huge list...this is just what's mainly on my playlist lately though.
[spoiler-box]
Anarchy Club (Yeah, the band in Guitar Hero/Rock Band- I actually legally own their album and their EP though :wacko: Waiting for 'The Art of War' to release in 2009.)
Bullet For My Valentine (Minus the I <3 [insert band member name] Myspace culture part)
Disturbed (Not a huge fan of their older stuff, but Indestructible was admittedly a pretty decent album)
Dream Theater (Prog-metal? I'm HUGE on DT at the minute. I heard In The Name of God a while back, and got hooked. Now I can't stop listening to them...)
Iron Maiden (Huge, huge Maiden fan)
Judas Priest (Painkiller, 'nuff said.)
Lacuna Coil (Christina Scabbia is 1) extremely hawt 2) blessed with a nice voice to back it up. I just wish they'd ditch the backup singer, he seems...pointless.)
Manowar (What's NOT to love? :wacko: )
Megadeth (Rust In Peace is one of the best albums EVER.)
Metallica (Oldschool- mainly Kill 'Em All/Ride The Lightning/...And Justice For All period)
Nine Inch Nails (I know, not exactly metal- awesome though.)
Slayer (weeee Thrash)
Stratovarius

Although, I gotta say that my favourite song lately is either 'These Walls' by Dream Theater, or 'Bye Bye Beautiful' by Nightwish.[/spoiler-box]

[gorefiend]

you have some good starter metal =]

megadeth and slayer stick out there to me though

[Dragwind]

I don't label myself a "metalhead" as I don't think a genre of music should represent or label me. However, I've been listening to thrash, black, grindcore, and death metal for about 10 years now, and still loving it. Even just posting the names to some of my favorite bands would be very inappropriate to PSOW, so I'll just post an awesome drum video from one.

[Omega_Weltall]

I recently got into metal and so far I'm liking deth metal more though there are some power bands i like. some of what i'm currently listening to now:

Job for a Cowboy-Knee Deep

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVzyT-gWQjc

Behemoth-Decade of Therion

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2PDNyD9G0M

Hammerfall-Hearts of Fire

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k25X8RAjJ00

[gorefiend]

Jofo is deathcore but there still good, i listen to them also =]

[Neith]

you have some good starter metal =]

megadeth and slayer stick out there to me though

I've listened to Megadeth and Slayer for a while, so it's not that I'm new to metal or anything, it's just my tastes are quite diverse within the genre.

I still think Megadeth's 'Sleepwalker' has some of the funniest lyrics ever put into a song. Tornado of Souls has to be one of my favourite tracks from them though.

Edit: That Hammerfall song is decent too (the one posted above).

I think I should get into Testament more- I've liked what I've heard so far.

[DreXxiN]

Disturbed.

[spoiler-box]I'M KIDDING.[/spoiler-box]


LMAO..Oh man, you're good XD

Also definitely love Hearts of Fire.

Hammerfall really lives up to my idea of "neo-Maiden"

Also Neith, like your picks.

I'm a metalhead myself but I hate when people who have no idea what they are fucking talking about start trying to label things as metal or not like they are better than you. (OMFG METALLICA RUINED MUSIC NOT METAL ROFLFOLOLOL)

@ Kylie's post: Yeah, Slipknot is definitely metal, people need to get the fuck over it, even their drummer is good and their older stuff isn't too bad, even if the guitar riffs are mainly them scratching the strings against walls

New BfmV is awesome, Dream Theater is amazing and...Stratovarious..perhaps one of the most beautiful neoclassical metal bands around..the technicallity of the guitar is SICK! (Not to mention the rest of the band has amazing talent)

I LOVE Moon's picks though, Kamelot and SA ftw! (Been getting tired of Studioforce after hearing them live though XD) Definitely love the prog/power-metal/speed metal :D. I've been experimenting more into melodeath and black metal with symphonic elements etc, however.

Also, i DO like other music too, so yeah.

[amtalx]

On Slipknot: Hopefully I won't incite any riots, but while Slipknot is metal, I think a lot of the metal "purists" don't want it to be. Slipknot is most commonly classified as nu metal, which IMO is terrible. But hey, there are other types of metal I don't like as well.

[gorefiend]

DreXxin if you want some good symphonic black metal, try Dimmu borgir =] I'm a fan of Mayhem and Burzum. is anyone else here a musio?

[Syl]

QFT

Big fan of death metal, namely melodic death metal. I was raised on classical such as Chopin and Rachmaninoff and etc. so I still yearn for that full sound that classical music brings and melo death seems to fill that role with amazing riffs and structuring. Neoclassical metal would fit it, especially since I love guitar and play it, but sometimes you need something... more.

That doesn't stop me from liking other things non-metal, but for the most part that's what my albums and mp3s are. Some types of metal I don't really like (or listen to on a whim) are black, nu, hardcore, post hardcore, and power metal. Pretty picky with those.

Some of my favorite bands are (with links provided for cool songs. Assorted types of metal. Check them out if you're looking for new stuff to listen to! Spoiler boxed for being hueg leik xbawkz):

Alternatively you can just look in my youtube favorites for other stuff found here (http://www.youtube.com/user/SylEspada).

[kurisu1974]

DreXxin if you want some good symphonic black metal, try Dimmu borgir =] I'm a fan of Mayhem and Burzum. is anyone else here a musio?

If you like the old stuff from Mayhem and Burzum, did you try the old albums of DarkThrone (especially Transilvanian Hunger -> best Black Metal album ever XD )?

Oh, and Maybem AND Burzum? You know the history between those bands, right?

[gorefiend]

Yeah, i love the fact that they have a story behind them that just makes you go...woah thats metal and yeah i know about darkthrone i like dance of enternal shadows =] whats your favorite dt song?

[kurisu1974]

Transilvanian Hunger is my favorite DarkThrone song, 6 minutes of pure raw power.

[gorefiend]

Haha nice, so whats everyone listening to?

I'm listening to Satyricon - Fuel for Hatred

[kurisu1974]

I shall list some of the bands I listen to, just cuz I'm bored (I'm at work right now and there isn't much to do at the moment).

DarkThrone, Immortal, Gorgoroth, Dimmu Borgir, Mayhem, Burzum, Tsjuder, Satyricon and Enslaved (early work), Marduk, Setherial, Dark Funeral, Naglfar, Judas Iscariot, Krieg, Anaal Nathrakh, Emperor......yeah I listen to a lot.

[gorefiend]

nice list, i like all those bands =]

but yeah im a lover of satyricon =]

[kurisu1974]

Cool I like Satyricon too, but I had to get used to their new style though. :)

[gorefiend]

Yeah, your talking about now diabolical?

[kurisu1974]

Exactly.

[gorefiend]

Haha i didnt mind it, i liked king, but you listen to mother north then king and your just like mother north is better.

Like age of nero is good, but it lacks something, i cant put my finger on it tho

[DreXxiN]

Trust me gore I do like Dimmu borgir (and pretty much everything Syl posted)

[gorefiend]

Haha yeah.. just had to make sure drexX but http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=PQyiAGjk9ME

Is that the satyricon we are talking about kurisu1974?

[Omega_Weltall]

I didnt know Spongebob did friggen deathcorel?! this cover he did for Job for a Cowboy is SICK!
Miss. Puff is tearin that shit up

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4p6_WZJJNBw

i know i know its old but i still lol at it, plus its a good edit job.

[gorefiend]

lul

=]

But really, as much as i love jofocowboy they piss me off alot also x[

But What does everyone think of dissection?

[gorefiend]

How ydo you get that impression? The only Three that are alike are me and kurisu1974 and drexx Tell me how ALL of us arwe alike?

[DreXxiN]

Dissection is good if I'm thinking of the right band; melodeath right?

Some of my favorite in that department would be CoF (Don't kill me) Chtonic, Amon Amarth, In Flames, Dark Tranquility, Etc.

[kurisu1974]

Haha yeah.. just had to make sure drexX but http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=PQyiAGjk9ME

Is that the satyricon we are talking about kurisu1974?

Yes, this is the Satyricon I had to get used to, mainly because I think Nemesis Divina is their best album and it's SO different from what they do now. But the "new" Satyricon isn't so bad after I listened to it a couple of times. It seems it's more like extreme metal than black metal.

[Nitro Vordex]

They all sound the same though. :/

[raikomaru40]

Those are the coolest/weirdest band names I've ever heard.

[DreXxiN]

Those are the coolest/weirdest band names I've ever heard.

Grats on getting your spacebar working!

[raikomaru40]

Yea, thanks, I was actually on a different computer though. I only get a chance to go online at school and that computer was in my chemistry classroom.

[DreXxiN]

Oh ok XD..

They don't sound the same if you listen to it a lot.

I used to think they were all practically the same when I was just a casual rock/alternative listener, but now I can appreciate the technicality and difficulty and beauty (as hard as some of you might find that to believe) to this music.

That's why I love Classical, all though it's not something you exactly go around bumpin' in your car too. ;O

[KnightOfRT]

I love metal, but I have a broader sense of the word than the average person. I love 80's metal (aka hair, glam, etc). I love modern metal like pantera and slayer, and system of a down. I also love some of the newer stuff like dragonforce. Randy Rhoads is the best, he carried Ozzy initially. (R.I.P.) :(

P.S. Forgive me, but I have to post a pic of Randy for those that don't know him. Sorry

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v621/TheMIRC/Randy_Pic1.bmp

[gorefiend]

If you think there the same then you need your ear's cleaned, Also ozzy carried ozzy, anyway anyone into exhumed?

[DreXxiN]

Never heard of them.

I did like Randy Rhoads a lot, but I think Ozzy has always been good.

I do think however, that the soul of Metallica was lost with Cliff Burton's passing away though :).

However, I did still like the music after unlike most people.

[darkante]

Ohh, i like this band alot.
Especially this album.
