No flaming required, thanks to the humungous picture of Eddie on your sig!

Hhahahahhahaha

BATHORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and if you don't like Finntroll, something is wrong with ye.

 

[Carcassian]

Proposes: Pentagram.

Never heard anyone in here slagging them at all.

 

[MasterOLightning]

Probably because not that many of the regulars/semi-regulars have heard them. Not a well known band.

I thought Pentagram were pretty well known, especially if you have more than a passing fondness for Doom.

Pretty much all my metal friends in the UK have heard them. Maybe Peaceville sold more units here than in the US ?

EDIT: ...and if they had heard them, they would like them! I've never met anyone that has and hasn't (if you folow me!)

I don't think there are people who hate maiden here... who knows...

Does strongly disliking them count?

I think you'll find most people have a strong disliking for Finntroll, myself included.

 

[Susperia]

Si. And i've never heard Pentagram.

 

[Life Sucks]

I think the people who said Slayer are right. I can't think of anyone on here that does not like Slayer's classic work. I will probably go see Slayer in June on the Unholy Alliance tour, though I am not into the other bands on the bill.

If you had, you'd like them.

Older slayer is ace. I do not think I would go see slayer at this point. With my luck Slayer would hammer out a bunch of newer songs.

But you know they will at least play Raining Blood and Angel of Death. That's worth the ticket price right there

There pretty good. But but for a broader appeal go with maiden who doesnt like maiden and why?

People that don't like any bands with clean vocals would not like Maiden. And there definitely are metalheads out there that don't like trad metal or clean vocal metal. Maiden is great, though, in my book. And I've never heard Pentagram.

I see your point but what would you propose. your obviously never gonna please everyone on the board but i thought maiden would be as close to a common ground as you could get if you list a death/black/doom band their are gonna be far less people into those type of vocals than clear

Perhaps. I think that Slayer, with vocals that are not clear singing nor deathgrunts, and both death metal stylings and a traditional metal sensibility, would probably be the most universally liked, as someone already mentioned. Of couse, I am talking about their classic work.

 

[el barto]

Fair enough the old slayer albums are defenite classics but i'm sure someone will disagree

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

old Slayer is teh awesome!
