looking for recommendations

[BLARGAG!!!]

hey all,

i currently listen to Amon amarth, kataklysm, slipknot, soilwork and much other stuff like that. i am looking for some new bands to listen to (not necessarily in the same vein). i like fast and intense stuff, but ill listen to just about anything once,

thanks in advance!

You might try In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, Kalmah, and other melodic death.

 

[Seditious]

yep

Dark Tranquillity
Lost Dreams (if you can find them)
Insomnium
Eternal Tears of Sorrow

 

[Ultimate_Symphony]

Darkane
Intestine Baalism
Dark Tranquillity
Cryptopsy
Unanimated
Lykathea Aflame
Appaling Spawn
Nile
Quo Vadis
The Crown
Suffocation
Immolation
The Chasm
At The Gates

That should get you started.

All mentioned
Also, everyone on the amon amarth forum is a huge fan of bloodbath, so perhaps that.
And if soilwork, probably Scar Symmetry. Also I recommend you try out Kreator's latest - ballsy, melodic, well-produced thrash metal. Also try The Abscence, Behemoth, Decapitated, and Vader.

Listen to this man. Except with In Flames, stop after Clayman.

. Also try The Absence

Riders of the Plague is a fantastic Thrash/MDM album. Nice rec.

I fully endorse this message, however in my eyes you can easily overlook Dark Tranquility. "The Gallery" is the most over rated album on this entire forum. Also, At the Gates go downhill tremendously after their first album, so just get that one.

Agreed.

 

[The Ozzman]

Listen to this man. Except with In Flames, all of their albums are good, but the quality declines after Reroute to Remain

Fixed

 

[tagradh]

Eh.. I like one or two songs on RTR but the quality does more than decline after that, it just fucking disappears.

As far as I can tell I'm the only one on here who thinks The Gallery is their best. They're also a generally excellent band.

Agreed.

I actually agree as well. I really like the last two but I wouldn't recommend them for most people.

hell yes! they fuckin suck!

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Fuck you, you fucking fuck.

 

[waif]

They've never impressed me, either. Just uninteresting, really.

It's my favorite Dark Tranquillity record too.

It's not necessarily that they're terrible albums (Reroute to Remain is mediocre; the rest are pretty bad though, I think); it's just that the newer records don't give an accurate representation of In Flames. The older records (through Clayman) are the true In Flames sound.

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

Yeah, it's everyone's favorite DQ album. I probably like Character best.

 

[genocide roach]

uber intense stuff?
