    Death Metal

    I'm not sure if they've been mentioned here or not, but some awesome death metal my band and I have been digging a lot lately is MITHRAS! They hail from the UK and share some similarities to Morbid Angel in sound. http://www.myspace.com/domainofmithras

    Witchfinder General

    Witchfinder General are so good! If you can't figure 'em out by ear then I recommend trying harder. Their songs really aren't that complicated. How long have you been playing guitar for?

    Saw Gojira tonight

    Writing Clean Parts

    This is key. It's true that you want a good chord progression for the clean part, but if the bassist and drummer aren't doing anything interesting musically then it won't have much of an effect.

    MAIDEN FLIGHT 666 MOVIE

    "Thinking" metal albums

    Definitely!! Other "thinking" bands/albums... Gorguts - Obscura Portal Deathspell Omega Sigh Voivod - Dimension Hatross Just some off the top of my head. I find those bands have very unique compositions that more often than not require you to pay more attention than usual.

    2009 METAL - OFFICIAL THREAD

    I gave the new Beherit a listen today. It's pretty fucking good, considering how come-backs have been lately. It's pretty much like their earlier material, with an electronic tinge to it and way better production.

    Brutal/Slam Death Metal

    Deeds of Flesh are pretty wicked. Those guys are riff machines! Yeah slam death is a cool style, although it gets repetitive fast at times.
