Gnarly Metal Bands?

At The Throne of Judgment

uhhhh Dragonforce is pretty good :)MichaeltheCM

I can't listen to DragonForce, it gets boring for me. I'll always listen to Through The Fire And The Flames, but never could make it through the next song without switching it...

Songs:

Kreator - Pleasure to Kill, Behemoth - Decade of Therion, Children of Bodom - Silent Night, Bodom Night.

Those songs shouldn't be too hard to find.

Ensiferum (Token of Time, Sword Chant, Into Battle, Little Dreamer)

Wintersun (Beyond the Dark Sun, Death and the Healing, Winter Madness, Sadness and Hate)

Opeth (The Drapery Falls, The Grand Conjuration, Harvest, Ghost of Perdition)

Blind Guardian (Another Holy War, Valhalla, Under the Ice, Majesty, The Soulforged)

Children of Bodom (Needle 24/7, Follow the Reaper, Warheart, Lake Bodom, Children of Decadence)

Stratovarius ( Hunting High and Low, Phoenix, Millenium, Infinity, Rebel, Fight)

Death (Crystal Mountain, Misanthrope, Perenial Quest, Scavenger of Human Sorrow)

Try their earlier albums, they're a LOT better. Valley of The Damned was their best (and first) album, with songs such as Valley of the Damned and Heart of a Dragon.

Well since your into thrash, check these bands out:

Machine Head

Nevermore

Anthrax (Figured since you mentioned 3 of the 4 fathers of thrash, I mine as well suggest the 4th)

As for good non-thrash bands:

Soilwork

The Human Abstract

In Flames

The Dillinger Escape Plan

Opeth

Static-X

The Human Abstract

LostProphetFLCL

Lol they are awesome, I'm listening to them right now

[QUOTE="LostProphetFLCL"]

The Human Abstract

Faust_DWfan

Lol they are awesome, I'm listening to them right now

Glad to see I am not the only one who thinks they are awesome! I can't wait to see what they do with their next album!

definitely check out Opeth, but I'd recommend avoiding Job for a Cowboy. the latter is pretty generic, and the band members are jerks on top of that. anyway, I'd recommend these are starting points:

Strapping Young Lad
Orphaned Land
Lacuna Coil
Nightwish
Children of Bodom
Nevermore
Epica
Shadows Fall
Chimaira
Daath
In Flames
Machine Head
Dark Tranquillity
Scar Symmetry

also, I'm working on a "holiday buyer's guide" on my blog, so you can always look at that for help. the url is http://musicreviews666.blogspot.com/2007/11/holiday-buyers-guide-accessible-metal.html

i know what you mean, although i dont find it "boring" i find it all very samey, iv heard all 3 albums and apart from a select few, i just get sick of the same old routine of playing normal songs but at 3x the speed...

if you are into power metal, you should DEFINATELY check out blind guardian, they are similar to bands like iced earth, but way better..

i also love dream theater, john petrucci is possibly the best guitarist i have ever seen...go on youtube and lookup "the glass prison" by dream theater and you will see what i mean.

Black Friday Rule - Flogging Molly

No other song is needed. This is the drinking song. The. Drinking. Song.

EDIT: Also, throw in some Dark Tranquillity, and your mom will be happy.

Chack out Capharnum. It reminds me more of hardcore than metal, but I love them.

Also, check out Into the Moat.

+ Rhapsody of fire.

Pantera , Anthrax and stuff like that

Symphony X, anyone?

Ok thanks for all the bands guys. Some of the stuff mentioned i already listen to like In Flames, Souldly, Sepultra, Pantera,DragonForce, Dimmu Bogir andKillswitch Engage, but some of the others i had heard of but cbf at the time getting into or just never heard of. I will look more into Opeth, Dark Tranquility and Children of Bodom along with some others mentioned. I got some friends that i think are really into some ofthem so i'll see if i can get any albums off them. thanks again. If anyone else knows any others apart from the ones mentioned before that would help heaps.

Arch_Angel_21

Would you rather post in a religion thread?

I am digging me some Nightrage as of late, so I recommend checking them out.

Seeing as they have a new singer on their latest album, they sound a bit different so you gotta check out two sounds when looking into the band.

Old

New

*smh* Violent Revolution isn't the same ownage without listening to the Patriarch before it.

I myself would have recommended Pleasure to Kill because it owns and because it's what I'm listening to right now. With the song Riot of Violence.
