Kill 'Em All said:Thanks. I'll look that up today. 'Bout time I started listening to some new bands.
& thanks as well Salvatore, I'll look up that record as well.
This fora's much better than the Children of Bodom fora, it's mostly full of wankers in there. Not like here, where you get nice replys back.Thanks people, you make me want to stay on this forum.
I'm sorry, my bad. Onward to Golgotha belongs to Incantation, not Immolation. The thing is I was listening Immolation while I wrote this and I'm always fucking things up. Forgive me.
...I need a scape goat. Oh right, I was drunk.

December 25th 1984. I was 9 years old. Grandma, for some unknown reason, decided I needed an Iron Maiden 'Piece of Mind' t-shirt for christmas. I didn't even know what Iron Mainden was. I found out the next summer when I went to visit grandma. We went shopping at K-Mart and I was looking through the cassette tapes for some Weird Al Yankovic or something kids like when somthing caught my eye. Iron Maiden 'Piece of Mind'. "Oh, I guess 'Iron Maiden' is music." I grabbed the tape and asked grandma if she'd buy it for me. I reminded her that it was the picture on the shirt she'd gotten me. She purchased it for me and to this day I have grandma to thank for initialy turning me into a metal head. Grandma is 92 now and still going strong!
And BloodbatH plays some of the most heavy music performed by some of the most talented group of guys in Death Metal I've heard in a long time.

I guess that has happened when the first numetal wave arrived around the mid 90's. Bands like Korn, Deftones and Coal Chamber. I still listen to the Deftones now and then.

It all begin with Iron Maiden, during grade six or something, when I was 12 or 13 years old. Close to follow where Metallica and Black Sabbath. Then I developed an interest for Slayer and In Flames. Those combined ended up in the Haunted, which led backwards into At the Gates. I then ventured into the realms of brutallity begining with Morbid Angel, Death, Entombed (however, the entombed stup I picked up wasnt that brutal) and The Crown. At the beginning of high-school I was introduced to Opeth, which gave a strange twist to my music-taste, helping med to explore a lot of different shite, also heading in the directions of prog, or even cheesyness. Not much later than that I came across "Crimson" by Edge of Sanity, which is still, in my opinion, the best metal-release ever. And after cheesing into stuff like "Yes", "Rush", "Camel" and "Genesis" (amongst a lot of less cheesy 70s rock from different parts of the world) heavy music kindo got a rejoice in my house with the grindcore act Nasum, assorted death metal stuff (such us suffocation and bloodbath) and so on - Music rules.

I started with Metallica and Ozzy, from there I got into power metal, by means of Falconer and Dragonforce, eventually Stratovarius. I soon ended up wanting to see what else metal had to offer, and soon found out about Emperor and ...and Oceans. It was here that I had ended up getting into black metal, and for almost a year I had listened to little metal that wasn't black metal. I have now recently (starting the middle of last year) been getting into death metal, and while I had first enjoyed Death, Posessed, Crypt of Kerberos, Miasma, and a few other more old school bands I never really got into it. Then Wormed came along. Dear god. Brutal as fuck, but I loved it. I got more into the brutal death scene with bands like Spawn of Possession, Suffocation and the like, but soon drifted off back to Black metal. From here I got really interested in Folk and Viking metal, and for about 2 months it was my main genre. Now however, I don't really have a main subgenre of metal I listen too, but I have been listening to Black and Death metal more, with me exploring DM alot more since I had semi-neglected it throughout my journey of metal.

THE song that got me into metal was Cemetary Gates, when I heard it I was like WOW, it gave me chills, my spine started tingling, I was amazed that a song could something like that to me.After that I was hooked on Pantera, Metallica and Black Sabath.I got into death metal when I heard The Moor.

Faith No more... not very metal indeed but heavier than Queen and Kiss, the bands that got me into rock when I was a rebel kid hahahaha
That was the very first "metal" band that I heard... Now I think that they was more a rock band than a metal band.

I never had anyone in my family listening to metal, neither any of my friends did when I was a kid, so when I was in 8th grade I heard Limp Bizkit on tv and as it was more "agressive" I loved it, then I eventually got into Korn, SOAD and Slipknot, then I met some cool people whyle in 10th grade and found out what real fuckin metal is...

MY first was opeth. I came fromt he classical side of music when my friend showed me lamentations. I was a bit scepitcal until I saw the talent that those guys have. Fromt hen on it was a slow and steady discovery of other bands. Opeth led me to Bloodbath, I found stuff like rhapsody and then some underground black metal like Averse Sefira and Behexen.
I started with Drowning Pool back when they were big on the radio. From there I had a friend suggest that I look into Opeth after I flat out lied to him saying that I listened to death metal every now and then (when I had never even heard of death metal before). From Opeth I got into Bloodbath and here I am today.
