Susie Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Yea, they used to be a black/doom metal band with lots of harsh vocals (Mikael Akerfeldt took on that role at one point actually), but shifted to a more depressive rock sound after a couple of albums. Brave Murder Day is generally considered the best of their old stuff. As for the new stuff, I've only heard the most recent three albums and they are all pretty good. I've decided I want to acquire all Discordance Axis and Gridlink full-length albums. thanks, ill give Katatonia a try once im able to get to my computer at my dads in April also Discordance Axis are great, though Gridlink is incredible possibly my favorite Grindcore band, if youre still looking into some Grindcore then i highly recommend this albumhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zN110NHkoik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Girl Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 One metal band I started listening is DragonForce! I started listening when I played Guitar Hero. My favorite song is through the fires and flames. Look them up. I think you'll find them pretty cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started listening when I played Guitar Hero. My favorite song is through the fires and flames. Look them up. I think you'll find them pretty cool! Unfortunately, I jumped off the Dragonforce train seven or eight years ago haha. If you like that style though (power metal), I recommend Blind Guardian. They've got a much better sense of songwriting than Dragonforce in my opinion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZFrHdHoB44 Or if you're interested in power metal mixed with more extreme metal stylings, Children of Bodom is rad.

Tentacruel Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Holy sheet Coral, I know our tastes aren't always the same, but I was just randomly obsessing over Children of Bodom out of the blue. Alexi Laiho inspires me as guitar player for reasons I don't understand myself. I like all of their stuff, but there old stuff is special. Also, Dragonforce's new stuff is actually decent. (They're also starting to put harsh vocals in here and there.) (They are still Dragonforce though so their new album won't exactly change your mind one or the other.)

(They're also starting to put harsh vocals in here and there.) (They are still Dragonforce though so their new album won't exactly change your mind one or the other.) I don't jam them like I used to, but Children of Bodom's first three albums are nothing if not completely badass. They've done a lot of good stuff after that but nothing quite on par with their former work in my opinion. Dragonforce wooed me in early high school when I first heard "Through the Fire In Flames", but the fire died quickly after I listened to the rest of Inhuman Rampage and found out that every song sounds exactly the same. I haven't listened to their recent work, but I'm not really into power metal anymore anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susie Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 i never did take an interest into Power Metal, Children of Bodom are good though i like Are You Dead Yet best out of all their albums, they were my favorite Melodeath band (though nowadays i dont have a favorite), Halo of Blood was a great album too as well as their first three albums Neurosishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DoOWi8mCSk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like industrial metal too much but Sybreed is an awesome exception. i havent really listened to Neurosis in a long ass time and they just randomly came to mind recently. Times of Grace is probably my favorite too i used to listen to a lot of Industrial Metal, though im not as much on it as i used to be i still do love Nine Inch Nails, Psyclon Nine and a few others when im in the mood for it. always heard of Sybreed though i never bothered with them, stupid choice on my behalf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben's vocals are awesome and the riffs are so catchy. Antares is probably their best album but I also really like The Pulse of Awakening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really a fan of power metal to be honest...as far as long songs though, black metal typically delivers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYD1MgHdcEI Discovered this band the other day, really awesome experimental black metal with heavy prog stylings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUenNCYpJ6E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~NOiSE~ Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 randomly felt in the mood for Dark Tranquillity today That's funny because I did too. I just read some quotes from the drummer talking about the next album, he said he's written six or seven songs of really fast, riff-heavy stuff which sounds amazing, even though I love everything they've done. http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/dark-tranquillitys-new-material-will-surprise-a-lot-of-listeners/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gallery and The Mind's I are both classic melodeath albums, though I prefer the latter a tad more. Projector is slower and more experimental like Construct, and Haven is the band at their most melodic with heavy keyboard use and not as many riffs. Everything they do is gold though.

I did get to see them live once though, those guys are crazy talented. You might dig these Thar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
