Can someone hit me with recs for bands that sound like Root did on their first three albums? I like their later material too, but I think their early stuff was so filthy, creepy, and unique. I'm slightly familiar with the Greek scene (Rotting Christ, Necromantia, and Varathron), and I'm familiar...

It's old school (early maybe later 90s), most likely European, from Scandinavia but I honestly can't remember and they may well be American or otherwise. As far as I can remember, they released only a few albums, maybe only one. The album I'm thinking of is notable for having a very melancholic...

Hi, I'd like to change my name to PrincessHades please

Gonna post this in GMD, it may not have metal in the name but like grindcore, crust punk is another really cool punk genre that is inextricably tied in with metal. I've been getting really into the convergence of punk and extreme metal lately and I'll start off by sharing a few bands...

yeah....I look like shit I'm short and skinny so I'm kind of worried people are just going to think I'm a kid with cancer or something. I would cut it short but as you can see I have a shitty hairline and also I'm pretty sure I'm getting male pattern baldness already. If I shaved it would...

Most of us can agree that Mayhem and Darkthrone are musically good, or at the very least those bands have an appealing mystique. But, a few years ago I was hugely into black metal and there are thousands upon thousands of bands that sound like Darkthrone minus the elements that made Darkthrone...

We lost X today. Most of you probably don't know who he is but he was a soundcloud rapper who had a pretty unique style. His music would probably appeal to some metal fans so I'll post this...

Name some good NWOBHM bands. I'm familiar with the most well known ones.

I didn't want to spoil the last one, but people were bitching about these threads shitting the forum. Once thrash metal bands sell out and start jumping around in tutus singing about candy, no one appreciates them...therefore the polls become boring as shit. This one will be about the newest...

I've decided to speed things up (even though the music we are speaking of is continuously slowing down) to keep it from getting boring. Next will be the Teutonic Big 3. Starting with Metallica's Load. I am among the few who really enjoyed the hell out of Load. That said, it is certainly no...

I'm going to eschew the 1-2 day intervals between polls as these seem to produce a very definitive and heavily imbalanced answer within a few hours. I like The Black Album. It has some good songs. It gets some undeserved shit, but the second half has some good thrash metal holdovers (dare I...

Starting with Metallica. I fucking love ...And Justice For All. It is my favorite Metallica album. It has One on it, so that is a given. Unfortunately, it doesn't have very much charisma overall. Next is Anthrax-State of Euphoria. Honestly, I've never listened to this one before. I felt no need...

I'm going to go with Reign in Blood. Master of Puppets has the best songs, with (Welcome Home) Sanitarium being my second favorite Metallica song, and Orion being the third. One is my favorite, but that is irrelevant to this thread. I just don't think that it is a very listenable album, some...

I'm going to say Peace Sells. The album is full of underrated songs, namely The Conjuring and Bad Omen. I like Ride the Lightning, though I feel that Metallica released all their albums prematurely and thus was set on a premature timescale (but that was what made them so influential. Hell Awaits...

I am going to go with Killing is My Business... Show No Mercy and Kill 'Em All are not far behind, though.

Megadeth took what most would consider some sort of substance induced misstep with 1988's somewhat strange sounding 'So Far, So Good...So What!'. The album was quite good in my opinion, however it is virtually impossible to argue against the fact that it lacked whatever elements made the band's...

I've listened to both albums, they both kick ass, however I am debating in my head which one is the superior one. I am still indecisive. Nordland I has the title track, Vinterblot, Foreverdark Woods, and best of all, Broken Sword, whereas Nordland II has Sea Wolf, Vinland, The Land, and a...

Destroyer of Worlds- I wish I could like this album more. It has a few good songs, and it's very brutal in sound, but it is too inconsistent and directionless to be enjoyed as a whole. Octagon-Honestly, I haven't lisetened to this in whole, but it is the lesser of the first two retro thrash...
