Inspired by the promo thread

[Firedwarf]

I think in one interview, you guys mention that a lot of metal is shit but the music that you like best is REALLY GOOD metal.

Suggest some really good metal! Thanks.

truer words have never been spoken. King Diamond: Abigail and Them are two of the greatest recordings of all time. and of course master of puppets & number of the beast. but those are very obvious.

 

[FalseTodd]

Oh geez: At the Gates: "Slaughter of the Soul"

The aforementioned albums

Esoteric: "Metamorphogenesis"

Neurosis: most of their albums

 

[Firedwarf]

Thanks. By the way, assume I haven't heard the obvious ones too. EVERYTHINGGggggggggg.

Strapping Young Lad - City

Darkane - Rusted Angel

 

[FalseTodd]

Judas Priest: "Defenders of the Faith"

Atheist - All, I like "Elements" alot

Death - "Symbolic", "Human", "Individual thought patterns", etc.

Any word reach you peeps about Esoteric's new one? I heard recording was finished and the gents were sending some promos around. Other than that... nothing.

IMO, "Elements" gets a bum rap. I keep getting drawn back to that one. There's just something in it that gives it a few notches over the others...

Just out of curiosity... how is older Death?

 

[FuSoYa]

I haven't talked to anyone from that camp in a long time, but I'm highly anticipating it.

 

[FalseTodd]

I don't really care for the first few albums ("Scream Bloody Gore" through "Spiritual Healing")but if you're into low production, grungy death metal that's the ticket...

I wish I could find Epist. Despond. damn it All I've got are MP3s not fit to be played at the proper volume levels.

Ah so basically... the legacy of Death is what makes the first few albums of particular interest?

 

[deadair]

someone say Cynic... come on... someone...

oh wait. i did.

 

[kleo706]

oh and Ulver's Bergtatt is really neato.

edited per avi's note. i had abstained from this thread for the same reason, but then forgot it evidently.

I'm not gonna post any of my own metal recs on this thread cuz I thought it was reserved for band members only. if anyone cares about my lame-ass opinion, ask me elsewhere.
