Initially I thought it was going to be a completely dull lifeless and repetative track but nicely surprised by it's changes.

Drum beats that just go snare-bass-snare-bass-snare-... ad infinitum are my pet hate and playing them as quickly as possible still doesn't make up for the lack of imagination!
 
Hi guys, I require some musical guidance ;)

I like, Metallica, AC/DC, Megadeath, BFMV, some Killswitch Engage. edit: and Trivium
I used to listen to Sepultura as a kid, but thats too much for me now.

My favs are Metallica and BFMV, got any ideas on what other bands out there that I could possible like?

Downloaded Liebe Ist Füre Alle Da last night. Excellent album. It's a lot better than I was expecting. It was definitely worth getting the extended edition, 3 of the 5 bonus tracks are excellent.

Machine Head, maybe In Flames, a dash of Dream Theater.
 
Busy watching the drummer on this one - a medley of classical but the drum work is pretty damn good - inventive and tight:

I rediscovered In Flames earlier, Clayman is such a good song but I can't stand their latest album, it sounds totally different.

I have also gotten into Thou Shalt Suffer, very few songs and it's strange to hear the main driving forces behind Emperor doing Death Metal. (Ihsahn, the vocalist was only like 15 when this was recorded too, wth)

Anyone here a fan of Darkthrone? I'm generally a fan of Black Metal but a lot of the bands can be quite OTT, Darkthrone on the other hand are more understated in my opinion.

Darkthrone are alright, I don't like the raw black metal sound all that much though and much prefer the likes of Mayhem and Emperor.

Compare these;


From around the same time, really not a fan of Darkthrone production. :z

Dissection are also great.


I think Emperor are the best of Black Metal though. :D

Ive found myself listening to In Flames and Soilwork's older albums again, stuff like 'Only for the weak' and 'No more angels' are bloody good songs!

I love old In Flames / Soilwork, I was really hyped for Sworn to a Great Divide but me and my friend were really disappointed with it. :( I hear they have their old guitarist back so new album could be promising.
 
I saw Viatrophy on Thursday, they kicked ass, seeing them in Swindon at the end of this month aswell :D

Whats your guys favourite In Flames albums then, mine has to be 'The Jester Race'

I find it has the catchy'ist riffs and I just love the little melodies here and there, yet its still heavy.

Bringing that up again?

Was speaking about the genre, Emperor are a big part of it. If you don't like me posting Emperor videos then just keep it to yourself, buddy. ;)

It does get rather annoying. I think you've made three separate Emperor postings in this thread and you keep bringing up black metal in threads when it doesn't even relate to the topic. OK, you like black metal, we get the idea. It's like you feel you have to keep bringing it up to validate your identity.
 
For anyone wanting to get a good deal on In Flames, Metal Hammer are currently giving thier 5 early albums as a gift if you subscribe which isnt bad if you read the magazine.
