I think I've grown too used to Metal music

Sirotnikov · August 31, 2003, 21:15

First, I've started liking Metallica's ...And Justice for All album more and more. I've even started getting used to their new stuff (though St. Anger is a terrible song, and I hate the way they 'composed' their songs using random cutting of riffs).

But what's even more scary is that I've started thinking of groups such as "Iron Maiden", "Black Sabbath" and even "Motorhead" and "Mercyful Fate" as 'pop-like soft-rock'.

What is hapenning to me?

Will I start liking the growling and thrashing of brutal death metal?

Help!!

Neurosis, Earth Crisis, and Danzig might help.

Sirotnikov · August 31, 2003, 21:17

I think I'm about to download a whole fat ass bunch of "Pantera" and "Sepultura" and "Dissection"....

Sirotnikov · August 31, 2003, 21:19

Oh, and get this. In the same time, I completely happily listen to Disco music by the Beegees, and Stevie Wonder, and Earth Wind and Fire.

Berzerker · August 31, 2003, 21:21

Rush is the best

Berzerker · August 31, 2003, 21:23

Try Signals, Hold Your Fire, Power Windows, and Grace Under Pressure if you want really good music

st_swithin · August 31, 2003, 21:24

What's the name of that Rush song that's the same as the length of the song? Twenty something?

Berzerker · August 31, 2003, 21:31

Oh God, it was on one of their earlier albums. 2112?

Metal, hard, soft, malliable, whatever is all unadulterated shIte!*

*except for Thin Lizzy

st_swithin · August 31, 2003, 21:34

Ah, that's the ticket. Thanks.

Dissection

"Storm of the light's bane" is one of my all-time favourite CDs! If you like it, check out Mork Gryning- "Tusen ar har gatt"

Btw, if you really like Beegees, there are plenty of Power Metal bands that might interest you, such as Hammerfall

Start listening to Opeth and you will. Simply the best death metal (or any kind of metal band for that matter) ever.

Al'Kimiya · September 1, 2003, 03:37

Mercyful Fate

But you really should try out Nefilim.

Ecthy · September 1, 2003, 03:40

I've always warned you of this

sorry I haven't been round doing that CD for you, I'm afraid I won't get it done that quickly

Ecthy · September 1, 2003, 03:50

Metallica 1981-1993

ever after with the exception of 1998

~ 1998

I wrote a post stating something like "BustaMike will tell you to listen to Opeth", but my connection went down. And what happened in the meantime?

But take his advice, Opeth IS one of the best metal bands

how can you have grown too used to metal without listening to these bands yet? it seems more like you've just started!

MikeH · September 1, 2003, 06:58

Download some Goatsblood.

Ecthy · September 1, 2003, 07:29

Pantera

Sepultura

Opeth - no idea, gotta try them myself

Whaleboy · September 1, 2003, 08:05

Metallica's new stuff sucks!

Ecthy · September 1, 2003, 09:51

how are merciful fate?

Jeltz · September 1, 2003, 10:22

If you like Black Sabbath, you'll like most of Ozzy Osbourne's stuff too, since Black Sabbath = Ozzy.
Also Pantera - Cowboys from Hell is a decent album.

MikeH · September 1, 2003, 10:27

Black Sabbath with Ozzy were much better than Ozzy on his own.

Drogue · September 1, 2003, 11:02

I just saw Metallica live, and though I can't usually stand Metal, especially old metal, they did rock

They have amazing stage presence, and I can see why metal works when you have huge speakers and 100,000 people singing it. Ahh, the glory of festivals

MikeH · September 1, 2003, 11:07

Where did you see them? I saw them at Reading last week, they were awesome.

Drogue · September 1, 2003, 11:15

Same. I went to Reading Festival I need to resurrect my Reading thread as I didn't post in it after.

Whaleboy · September 1, 2003, 11:18

MikeH and Drogue: You saw them at the same concert then.

The Black Album through Garage Inc. and S&M were fantastic. This new stuff, you can tell it was written and recorded in a hurry. The fact that the band is now actually getting on with each sucks! Conflict is what we want!

Whaleboy · September 1, 2003, 11:19

Resorting to bumping are we Drogue?
