Rammstein
Because they saved my life
Periphery
Anybody?
>>705514361
Nice, definitely a fav of mine
But id go with The Human Abstract, because Nocturne is just godly and Digital Veil is seriously one of the most intricate metal albums ever, the classical style in their writing is just amazing and i dare u to name a band with better rhythm guitar melodies
10/10 luv dat shit
In Flames.
Always loved melodeath.
The Contortionist, datambientcombo.jpg
>>705513429
Hour of penance haven't heard anything heavier
>>705513429
Abba, cos they rock
Invent, Animate. Feel like I'm the only person fuckin with em.
Dying Fetus or Whitechapel
>>705513429
Rush
Sabaton, because Historical retellings are interesting to me.

The one with the cool logo
>>705516142
Abba vs Abbath. The battle of the scandinavians continue!

Ay me too. Or maybe Ghost
>>705513429
Parkway Drive, because they're good
>>705513429
Have to pick ONE?
Summoning.
It's like a mix between black metal and a decent fantasy-movie OST.
Granted, the singers are a bit of an aquired taste, but they write massive fucking songs, that you can listen to many a time.
They also have something of a unique sound. wich isn't common in todays world There are not many (ANY?!?!) bands that sound the same.
Vulvodynia and ingested.
Basically any slam
>>705515189
Insomnium and dark tranquility are also extremely good
Don't really like metal but Black Sabbath are pretty good.
>>705518999
trips of truth
Slipknot
>>705513429
If you write anything other than Meshuggah, you're either a virgin, or you're deaf
Acid Bath, only metal band that's been able to interest me
>>705514194
what how?
Helloween because they're awesome
Meshuggah because of aggression plus technicality
Korpiklaani , cause folk is awesome and they have songs about alcohol
>>705513429
I've seen most of those bands live, some multiple times. This makes me feel like a mainstream faggot
>>705514194
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3c41TkGlDl0
Children of Bodom because melodeath is best
Anal cunt because they sometimes tell the truth
>>705516490
aye
>>705520089
meh
>>705520647
i really like power metal, but helloween always sounded so generic and boring to me
>>705521325
ay
I really like Freedom Call. It was the first powermetal band i heard and i still love em.
I'm gonna go with Katatonia, because listening to their songs is a very enjoyable experience.
Do i really need a reason? Listen to Dealing With It!
Ensiferum. But I miss Jari.
>>705513429

Forgot entombed cannibal corpse and obituary

>>705513429
Absurd and Leichenzug
Deafheaven because shoegaze + black metal is actually a pretty good mix.
Liturgy because HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY
Alcest because see Deafheaven.
Street Sects because pure unadulterated rage.
Does early Swans count as metal?
Megadeth
They are the best thing metallica ever created
Can't we all just shut the fuck up and get our dicks out?
>>705523653
Fuck deafheaven. Hipster faggot black metal. Also swans is great but definitely not metal.
Exodus, because cajun hell
>>705514894
Most underrated band ever, they deserve so much more attention.
Carcass because I love the mixture of brutality with tight musicianship and occasionally catchy melodies and second to that either The Black Dahila Murder or Pungent Stench
>>705513610
Fuck yes!
Dethklok, because why not?
>>705513429
Lamb of God, because I love Randys voice
Cerebral bore or vader.
Cerebral bore - vocals
Vader - vocals - guitar
>>705513429
Pierce The Veil
>>705513429
Black Sabbath, cuz I'm le satanist
In My Silence.
>>705518096
I'm in love with dark tranquility - lethe
Favorite right now: Animals as Leaders
They're pushing the genre to new heights.
>>705513429
IM A MEATEATER!
Iron Maiden
Katy Perry, because its fuck easy trolling metal fags
Best metal band in my opinion. I only like their first 4 albums with the rough vocals though. Not into the satan shit just love the music
>>705523882
>Hipster faggot black metal.
I agree with the first guy. Deafheaven is great and Sunbather is a great black metal record. Why does the black metal "community" hate anything that isn't totally generic? Swear to God, it's like you take black metal and change it even just a little bit and people shit their fucking pants because it's not kvlt enough.
Huey Lewis and the News.
Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.
I really like Jungle Rot. Simple, angry, thrash, groovy. Based on this, what is another band/album I should check out?
Probably a toss up between Professor Skull, Diagnosis: Cancer, and Agrabah Massacre.
>>705525675
Have you by chance heard "It's Hip To Be Square"?
Amon Amarth, great sound, and interesting subject without annoying scream or vomit singing
>>705525587
Not at all... there are plenty of different subgenre of black metal that most of black metal fans appreciate. Deafheaven has made some great song but black metal is more than just music, it's a lifestyle and Deafheaven are far from representing what black metal truly is all about.
>>705525255
Fuck Bruce dickenson. Paul d'anno was way better, they should have kept him in. Iron maiden was shit after killers
>>705524879
lol no they're not, they're literally the same as any other prog metal band + 2 strings.
Jute gyte is best meal
Parkway drive, meshuggah, Rings of Saturn
>>705525919
Of course - it's their undisputed masterpiece. A song so catchy most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends; it's also a personal statement about the band itself.
Sleep.
>>705525451
weird, never heard of BATLORD
>>705525942
>black metal is more than just music, it's a lifestyle
Stopped reading right in that area.
Easily Ne Obliviscaris.
children of bodom. It was one of the first really heavy bands I was introduced to and I think their first few albums are some of the best metal I have heard. Never get sick of them. Hellhounds and after though they got kind of dull
>>705515928
Yeah but there's no style it's just technical lame. Metal isn't just about being heavy
>>705525942
Deafheaven isn't supposed to be about living a black metal lifestyle. They're not representing anyone. They're just making music. Hell, even Kerry McCoy said it himself, "You can listen to black metal and still be a normal guy who has a job and loves his mother."
Don't think of it as a lifestyle; it's just a musical genre. You sound like one of those guys who says, "Bro...EDM is not just a genre bro....it's a LIFESTYLE bro..."
>It's not a phase, mom! This is who I am!
Death From Below
Late Termination
>>705526513
Well then you haven't fully grasped the concept of black metal, your problem.
Because I don't enjoy edgy screaming to the sounds of somebody torturing musical instruments, I enjoy a little bit of musical talent as well.
Though I was disappointed with Armageddon, Rekreatur and Erdentempel were both awesome.
>>705513429
>favourite
ya fruity faggot
hemorrhagic shock
>>705518999
Yes Black Sabbath. After that metal became gay beyond redemption.
Speaking of which, my second favourite metal band is Gay Beyond Redemption.
Choosing one is bullshit so here are my all time favorites:
Amon Amarth
Blood Stain Child
Dethklok
Ensiferum
Heaven Shall Burn
Kalmah
Powerwolf
Sabaton
I enjoy powerful shit that doesn't sound like a dying pig squealing in a trash can. Which means black metal, grindcore and such are useless to me. Though I like variety.
dandelion deathclock
>>705526407
Haha are you trolling? It's BATHORY pal. Something tells me you knew that...
Also I love Possessed as well because they are the perfect mix of thrash and death. Once again, not into the satanic occult shit, just like the music.
What do guys think of girls that listen to metal?

>>705527159

>>705526752
Alright, maybe lifestyle is too strong of a word. But black metal is definitely a lot more than just music. There is an ideology behind it, concepts that go well beyond music. Deafheaven does not fit in this description, which is nor a good or a bad thing. They make good music but I wouldn't call it black metal.
Just FYI, I don't even considered myself a black metal addict or whatever. I played in a few bands, listen to many bands of that genre but I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music.
>>705526407

>>705526909 Here
>>705527159 is all really good too. I was far more impressed with Sabaton's new album than the aforementioned disappointment. The key to all of these bands is that they bring something interesting to the table and they understand that metal isn't just about being loud and edgy.
>>705527245
Is there girls who listen to metal? The only girls I've met who's claimed they listens to metal listens to fucking emocore and shit, I don't like to call that shit metal.
>>705523653
Get out of here /mu/
>>705513429
MGLA, Aosoth, Windir, Cult of Fire, Arkhon Infaustus, Satanic Warmaster, Antaeus, Destroyer 666, Vektor and so on...

No, I'm talking about bands like in the picture? How do you feel about that?

>>705528209
You, I like you! Blut Aus Nord as well. French scene is without a doubt one of the best BM scene at the moment.

>>705527441
>Deafheaven does not fit in this description, which is nor a good or a bad thing.
Oh. I thought you were implying that it's a bad thing. I was more annoyed with that than the fact that Deafheaven isn't really black metal, which, now that you've explained it the way you did, makes sense. Deafheaven is a lot closer to just really aggressive shoegaze than black metal.
Glad we could come to an agreement.
dark side of humanity
>>705528244
I'll repeat what I said afterwards:
"Alright, maybe lifestyle is too strong of a word. But black metal is definitely a lot more than just music. There is an ideology behind it, concepts that go well beyond music. Deafheaven does not fit in this description, which is nor a good or a bad thing. They make good music but I wouldn't call it black metal.

Acid Bath or Electric Wizard or Tool, if you want to call Tool metal.
ignominious insanity
>>705527821
>I was far more impressed with Sabaton's new album than the aforementioned disappointment.
Are you talking about Powerwolf? I think their latest album is actually better than anything Sabaton has done. I haven't even listened to anything other than that.
>The key to all of these bands is that they bring something interesting to the table and they understand that metal isn't just about being loud and edgy.

Bathory because Quorthon invented the atomsphere that other proto-black metal bands were missing, and because he invented the viking metal sound. This was then ruined by lots of awful Finnish bands who basically produced poor power/folk metal and labled it viking metal.

Thanks I do love me some judas priest especially their early stuff (bar Rocka Rolla) and painkiller, screaming for vengeance and defenders of the faith are also great. They are probably my second favourite band tied with death.
Well some of the music isnt of the genre, I'm gonna say Stuck In The Sound because fuck yall mainstream niggers.
Opeth. I even like their new stuff. Fuck, that band is amazing.
>>705529112

> Dissection
Fuck yes.
Probably either Dissection or Shining for me. Dissection's work were masterpieces imo, even Reinkaos which seems to get a lot more hate than it deserves based off how it strayed from Black Metal in its presentation. Shining's range of song styles over the years has been interesting, drawing on everything from black metal to jazz and pop, and I find myself going back and re listening to them all the time. It's also one of a handful of bands that can draw out real emotion from me when listening to it. That and I find Niklas as a person very interesting.
Meshuggah because I'm not a nigger
Second pantera
I'm kinda a fan of the Swedish The Haunted. I'm pretty into their musical arrangement as a musician, and Dolving's vocals are pretty decent. My brother used to listen to them which is mainly why I do.
