Metal with saxophone?

[Seditious]

If you must just check out their myspace: http://www.myspace.com/heoltelwen

However the relentless noodling of the flute player is damned annoying. Nevertheless they are a good example of the flute's distinct sound.

yes, 'annoying' does spring to mind. I heard and promptly deleted their album (whichever was highest ranked on metalarchives) last week, sparing only Epona I & II

Another Solefald song which has some awesome sax is 'Sun I Call'. Another amazing song (I am an unashamed Solefald fan)!

I think Sigh uses saxophones sometimes, not sure.

I wanted to try out these bands too, but seem to have trouble finding their music for download on limewire. Does anyone know where I can hear these bands? Or a good place to find more obscure bands in general?

Go to the band's website, download a song, buy the album.

I buy some albums when I really like a band, but I don't have enough money to buy as many albums as I'd like to unfortunately. I go through bands really fast.

arcturus uses saxaphones i think, in the last song on the sham mirrors called "for to end yet again." amazong song.

 

[Hell Mike]

Carpathian Forest have been known to utilize saxophones on occasion, not quite what you're looking for but better than most mentioned bands anyway.

Yeah great song but it's definitely not a sax, it's listed in the album credits as some sort of horn. It's used in a few places on that album.

Ephel Duath

If you don't mind metalcore-ish vocals.

 

[RedinTheSky]

Estradasphere !

 

[The_Quadfather]

I would think progressive music would employ a saxophone more than any other genre, although I have few examples to back it up. I do know, however, that Dream Theater uses a saxophone sparingly in their early works, i.e., Images and Words, Awake, etc.

Random? How the hell did you even find this thread?

 

[Belligerent]

Very random. I have zero recommendations.

 

[seedofvengeance]

I don't think he cares, considering this thread was made almost a year ago.

 

[Psychonaut]

Crimson Glory did a sax solo on the song "In The Mood".

 

[TylerTheNuke]

Hah, this is great. Thanks for ressurecting this list. I forgot to check out all of the bands! I didn't even follow a single reccomendation, lol. I'm totally sorry for wasting those people's time a year ago. I'll bookmark this so I remember to check some of it out next time.

Sigh has recently added a saxophone player to their ranks. They haven't released any new albums since, though. Their last album was released in the middle of 2007, so we probably won't see the release of their next album, "Scenes from Hell / Tempore Belli / Vanitas" for a while.

On Carpathian Forest's Morbid Fascination of Death, there's a few songs with a saxophone in it. I'm pretty sure they have other CD's with saxophones on it.
