To all metalheads!

Discussion in 'Music genres, Bands and Artists' started by dimmu_bongir, Dec 1, 2004.

  1. So apparently there are alot of new metalheads (not nu-metal heads... hahaha) on this board now. (I wouldnt know for sure, Im pretty new) but in any case, lets make an official "list your favorite metal bands" thread, I'd like to know who everyone listens to. Also, if you're in a metal band of your own, you could mention a bit about it.

    My favorites:

    (old) Hecate Enthroned
    (old) Cradle of Filth
    Old Man's Child
    Mystic Circle
    Dissection
    Emperor
    (old) Dimmu Borgir
    (very old) The Kovenant
    Windir
    Rhapsody
    Blind Guardian
    Opeth
    Children of Bodom (new album kinda sucked)
    (old) In Flames
    The Sins of Thy Beloved

    I joined (on keyboards) a local band called "Beyond Within" back in march... theyre okay, not really my type of music... they sound like bodom, but kinda crappier. I just recently started my own band, called Serenity in Nocturna, where I also play keys... IMO its a much better band, a good mix of black metal, power metal and classical music.

    Also, I do metal covers of old video game music on the side, for fun... Ive done metal versions of: the zelda theme, the tetris theme, and the boss battle theme from final fantasy 7.
    if anyone wants to hear em, private message me. if not.. you suck, cause they're cool. :D
    video game music rocks.
     
  2. favorite metal bands:

    marduk, dying fetus, skinless, cryptopsy, mayhem, martyr, opeth, mithras, amon amarth, slayer, enslaved, vital remains, the haunted, emperor, cradle of filth, king diamond, strapping young lad, misery index, lamb of god, borknagar, dimmu borgir, mercyful fate, stormtroopers of death (SOD), Immortal, dark tranqulity, lord belial, and finally bongzilla

    thats all I can remember off the top of my head

    I'm in a death/grind band called blood cum. Lyrical themes include, gore, death, sex, blood, marijuana and violence. I do all the screaming and growling and like to smoke a fat doob right before we play to do it better.
     
  3. Hail, Anal Ripper. Blood Cum is HELL metal. The only specifically hell metal band ever.

    There are some non-metal bands in there, but not many.

    I'm in a band called ChickenWing (hence the name), but we're not very serious. The music we've written is mainly power metal with the odd death metal song thrown in for fun. Personally, I'm quite serious about my music, which these days could best be described as power prog death metal. I play guitar by the way and can do some rather good growling. I'm working on the clean singing. I'll be taking up the trumpet again soon, so maybe I could work that in somehow.
     
  5. Here's some bands.

    Amon Amarth, Fleshgrind, Behemoth, Mastodon, Bloodbath, Destroyer 666, Pig Destroyer, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Cannibal Corpse, Dark Tranquillity, Vehemence, Krisiun, SOD, Nile, The Haunted, Cryptopsy, Satyricon(before Rebel Extravaganza), Edge of Sanity, Arcturus, Enslaved, Samael, Hypocrisy (awesome live), Katatonia, Rotting Christ, Shadows Fall, Amorphis, Opeth, Arch Enemy, Death, Sepultura, Testament, Dawn, Dissection, Slayer, old In Flames, Children of Bodom, Eucharist, Witchery, Nevermore, Marduk, Carcass, Strapping Young Lad, Neurosis (I know there's gotta be some other stoner Neurosis fans), Soilwork, Bathory, Lamb of God, Entombed, Defleshed, Judas Priest, Hate Eternal, Theory in Practice, Diabolical Masquerade, Naglfar, Kataklysm, Nasum, Ensiferum (I saw someone else mention them, hell yeah), Vader, Emperor, Morbid Angel, Sentenced, and quite frankly a shitload of others.

  9. Wow, all those great bands!! But do any of you like the band GWAR? Lookin through those lists I didn't see them mentioned once! If you have never heard of/seen them live, go do it now! As soon as possible! It is probably THE best show you will ever see! :D
