Re: Metal!!!
 

Been a Metallica fan since Master of Puppets, despite their last few albums. The new one is pretty good. Also was singing for a local band until we had some personnel issues (1 suicide, 1 prima donna, and 1 desertion). I'm into Metallica, Anthrax, Godsmack, Pantera, Maiden, Sabbath, Corrosion of Conformity, Dio, Exodus, Sevendust, etc.

I was in a hxc band in highschool. We were lined up to play with Dead to Fall in iowa but things fell through. I listened to a lot of hxc in highschool such as, Dead to Fall, Norma Jean, Underoath, From Autumn to Ashes, Alexisonfire, With Honor, Throwdown. Now its all classic rock.

Re: Metal!!!
 

man i am a metal fan but metalcore and hard core deathcore stuff like that

Re: Metal!!!
 

I used to listen to metal until it progessed into hair metal and then sidestepped straight into Alanis Morrisette and on to Britney Spears....by that point I figured the metal scene had lost its path and so I converted to Classical. Chopin kicks all those bands asses!!!

Cheers

Re: Metal!!!

Great band. Also a big fan of Hate Eternal.

Re: Metal!!!
 

haha, oops, wasn't trying to call anyone out on their metal tastes.

Lots of guys (and gals?) here with great tastes in a variety of metal. We should make a CA Metal Militia or something.

Re: Metal!!!
 

Any Dethklok fans?

Re: Metal!!!
 

I have seen them live twice. Big Gene Hoglan fan, actually big Strapping Young Lad fan. It was wierd, they played in total darkness and showed an animated film of them playing. wierd

I also really like The Haunted, At the Gates...Carcass, all the Gothenburg stuff really. I am a bit old school so I listen to alot of Venom and the Possessed, Death Angel and Testament too.

I love hardcore too, hatebreed...Sick Of It All, Dillinger Escape Plan, Coalesce. Madball...Bane...Hope Conspiracy. At work right now I am listening to Gojira...If you dont know then definately worth checking out.

Re: Metal!!!
 

Dethklok is ok.

Last concert i went to was In flames, As I lay dying, trivium, cannibal corpse, gwar, and a bunch of other crappy bands. Trivium sucks live, and now i hate them. In flames and As i lay dying were amazing tho.

There is a concert coming up with bodem, and a bunch of other awesome bands, can't remember who. Don't know if i wanna go, i'm so old now :x

Gojira and hatebreed are tight, haven't heard of some of those other bands you've named

Re: Metal!!!
 

As I Lay Dying?
:hm

Re: Metal!!!
 

I've heard a lot of people say the Dethklok live show really sucked. Gotta love the TV show though.

Re: Metal!!!
 

At the Gates and Carcass - two great metal bands.:D

Re: Metal!!!
 

Listened to nothing but swedish death stuff today..that remind me I gotta check on an order....

Re: Metal!!!
 

yes

Re: Metal!!!
 

got the new lamb of god, album is called wrath. Download styles. Release date is feb 24th.

Re: Metal!!!
 

I have no idea what you guys are talking bout with this lamb stuff.

I'm so old I still consider Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden to be metal which probaly qualifies me to be uncool and out of touch.:cool2:

Re: Metal!!!
 

I still listen to them. :tu

Re: Metal!!!
 

My favourite new Lamb Of God song is Contractor. I will be getting it the day it comes out. I have heard like half of the record through different venues.

Re: Metal!!!
 

One of the best concerts I've seen to date was Maiden on the Brave New World tour. It was the first US date, at MSG. Dickinson and Adrian Smith had just rejoined the band. Openers were Halford and Queensryche.

Re: Metal!!!
 

want a link to dl the album?

Re: Metal!!!
 

I would love a link lol!!!

Re: Metal!!!
 

Used to listen to metal as a kid, then stopped for some reason. Started listening again for the gym b/c it really gets me amp'd up. :ze

Re: Metal!!!
 

wicked sweet!!!!

Re: Metal!!!
 

:tpd:

and to think, I have albums (yes, ALBUMS) from some groups that broke up BEFORE most of these "new" bands and members were even BORN.

:tg

Re: Metal!!!
 

Guys, I've removed the download link. Looks like copyright infringement to me. And we can't have links to illegally download content on here.

Re: Metal!!!
 

BIG Metal-head here as well. Been to so many Metal shows its hard to even count anymore.

Seen so many awesome metal bands and feel lucky to have seen Pantera before they split up. Saw Superjoint Ritual and DOWN too so its all good :D

Speaking of Lamb of God, their concerts are so wicked! I'm pretty sure I went deaf after their show for a week and I've been to tons of metal shows but they take the cake for loudest.

Hatebreed is the most insane pit I've ever been in though.

Anybody pick up the new Amon Amarth album? It rocks!!!

Re: Metal!!!
 

I have seen Hatebreed 6 times..first time was in 1997. Seen Lamb of God 5 times. Amon Amart is okish..but really that into them. I am really digging the new God Forbid and cant wait for the new Gojira that is on its way. I was (an am ) a huge Pantera fan, I saw them like 6 times or so lol...saw Damage Plan twice

(press credentials are a wonderful thing)

Re: Metal!!!
 

Another new Gojira? "The Way of All Flesh" just came out a couple months ago. Don't get me wrong, love them and another new album would be sweet, just seems too soon.

Re: Metal!!!
 

I have it shipped to the house lol!!!

they are going to be headlining a tour

Re: Metal!!!
 

Damn, so far no US stops on that tour. But the European dates end in spring so maybe a summer tour.

Re: Metal!!!
 

Yes. It's F*%#ing amazing.

Re: Metal!!!
 

Lamb of god put out their best album when they were called Burn the Priest. Ever since then they are just decent. Ok gonna list some bands here take a breath.

Opeth, Amon Amarth, Between the Buried and Me, In Flames, Dark Tranquility, At the Gates, Arch Enemy, Children of Bodom, Blind Guardian, Demons and Wizards, Bolt Thrower, Wintersun, NightWish (old singer, new singer sucks), Light this City, Bury Your Dead, Burn the Priest, Mortal Treason, Ensiferum, Norther, Hammerfall, Iced Earth, Kamelot, Zao.

I know there's more just can't think of them right now.

Re: Metal!!!
 

imo a lot of the bands you named are just terrible, and i totally disagree with your LOG statment. Just my opinion.

Re: Metal!!!
 

You are entitled to your opinion. I didn't say LOG is bad but I thought they were better when they were Burn the Preist.

I was trying to add some bands to the list that hadn't been mentioned as much. I know some of them had been mentioned but if any one is curious they can go have a listen. I wasn't looking for criticism, lord knows I get enough of that from my girl friend.

Re: Metal!!!
 

Heh, well I'm gunna take the opposite opinion and say you're list rocks. One of the best shows I've been to had Opeth and Dark Tranquility in the line up (Devil Driver was there too, but they were better as Coal Chamber). Props for Ensefirum in the list too, consider them a little known band so it's always cool to see when people have heard of them.

I also feel you pain about girlfriend criticism, mine likes country:pu

Re: Metal!!!
 

I grew up on country and bluegrass and still listen to it quite a bit. I only listen to old stuff though like Hank2, Merle, George Jones, Waylon and Willy, John Anderson, Chris Ledoux, etc.

If you like ensiferum you might like Norther and Wintersun.

Re: Metal!!!
 

sorry i didn't mean to come off as a d-bag, like i said it was just my opinion, and we're all certainly entitled to them. I'm sure a lot of the bands i like you would hate too, no hard feelings man

Re: Metal!!!
 

I knew you weren't trying to insult me. What's great about things like music and tobacco is that you love what you love and don't care what anyone else thinks.

Re: Metal!!!
 

Exactly, you like mortal treason, i don't because their christian metal and talk about christ

to each their own right
