Heavy Metal Metalheads unite \m/

Discussion in 'Music genres, Bands and Artists' started by StonedMortal, Apr 23, 2012.


  1. One of my all time favorite bands.
     
  2. How is he being close minded? Never once did he state that all metal bands had to look like that, that was you're own interpretation of his statement.

    Metalcore & deathcore are not the same genre as metal and thus shouldn't be posted in a thread that's titled "Metalheads unite". While I'm not positive, I believe that was his point and it was a pretty valid one. If you love metalcore/deathcore, that's cool but don't pretend that it's the same genre as metal, it's not.
     
  3. Its really not metal though. Its more hardcore. If you go to a real metal show like Overkill or Kreator, you will understand that these core bands are not accepted in the metal community. Neither is Nu Metal. I did say it doesnt matter what you look like but generally speaking, that is what a real and fake metal band looks like. It is like how Green Day doesnt represent punk truly and how Lil Wayne/Drake do not truly represent hip hop. I have no problem with people listening to Devil Wears Prada, but those bands have really fucked up the metal community and it has become infested with these core bands. I just wish they would have their own genre so they can seperate from the metal name and when these sort of threads come along, people will be able to relate to eachother more.
     
  4. Plus metalcore/deathcore is generic as fuck. Every song has that same generic chugging, almost always with the "brutal" breakdown and a gay pop chorus lol.

    I know it doesnt matter what you look like in metal, but if your band looks like this:

    Instead of this:

    It is highly unlikely that what you listen to is even metal.[/quote]

  16. You guys make me sad. I dont see any Devin Townsend or Wintersun.

    I would marry Devin Townsend if he wasnt already married.

    This song is from his album Alien. In my opinion Alien is his craziest, angriest, rantiest album ever, and it is in my favourite top five albums EVER.

    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xm-eXzMdfro]Strapping Young Lad Shitstorm - YouTube[/ame]

    This is from Devin's Ziltoid the Omnicient album, which is faaaantastic. Devin did everything himself and he even cut off his dreads for the puppet. "Ziltoida Attaxx" is my second favorite song on the album, but I didnt think that "Planet Smasher" was a good example of it.

    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtSnXU8DfCA]Devin Townsend - Ziltoidia Attaxx!!! - YouTube[/ame]
    "I AM THE GREATEST GUITAR PLAYER EVER TO HAVE LIVE!! I'M ZILTOID!!"

    I just like the dance he does in "Vampira".

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMLXoobDKWs"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMLXoobDKWs[/ame]

    So now that you have tasted the many flavors of Devin Townsend, let's go to Wintersun. Unfortunately Jari has only made one album, and the album is absolute perfection. I think we've been waiting for Time since... 2006?

    I had a chance to go see The Faceless after this album came out at Summer Slaughter. Necrophagist was also playing, and The Faceless was one of the earlier acts and we missed them. I love this song so much.

    I also love Fleshgod Apocalypse very much. They're classically inspired and I'm not one for super technical things, but I really love this band.

    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjKyzwqIT7s]FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE - The Violation - YouTube[/ame]

    Gojira is one of the goofier bands in my opinion, but that's because they're super brutal despite the fact that they're French Environmentalists.

    And that's all i have for now.
     
  17. ^^^ The Faceless is fucking awesome.

  18. Alot of people do NOT like Rammstien, but fuck them. Easily one of my top 3 favorite bands of all time.

    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vi9ZdJnDUE&feature=related]Rammstein - Reise, Reise - YouTube[/ame]
     
  19. Hands down, Between the Buried and Me is the best metal band out there, followed by The Black Dahlia Murder.
