Necessary genres of metal

[Astrum]

Since this has turned into a "what do you listen to?" thread,


Black Metal
Brutal Death
Grindcore
Iron Maiden

but mostly the first and the last.

 

[DarkBliss]

what about later death which is basically progressive metal with harsh vocals??

Well you seem to have answered your own question there.Symbolic and The Sound Perseverance are pretty much extreme prog metal with harsh vocals.

 

[skeptik]

Or Progressive/Technical Death Metal.

 

[DarkBliss]

Ah whatever. Often the boundaries are too fuzzy to tell one from the other. Like with Atheist, for instance.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

well regardless of what it is, later death kicks massive amounts of ass (as does all death)

 

[Astrum]

Eh, Symbolic was their only album that wowed me. The others were good, but Symbolic was great.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

1000 eyes = multiplied by infinity

 

[Mort Divine]

Symbolic is the only Death album I deem worth listening to. Crystal Mountain is great at the very least.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

death's first 3 albums are some of the best old school death metal albums ever

Agreed. Though I never got into them like others here.

 

[King Richard]

Individual Thought Patterns is their best album though.

Not even close.

You don't like Human?

Once you familiarize yourself with some select Scandivanian DM you'll probably deny you've ever said that

I meant the lesser known bands

What lesser known bands are you talking about. Carnage? Cemetary? Desultory?
Grave? Crypt of Kerberos? Not to be an asshole, but i know a lot of lesser known scandinavian bands and i think death's leprosy is right up there with all of them. Maybe not Grave- Into the Grave.

 

[skeptik]

He wasn't fucking talking to you though.

 

[DarkBliss]

Is Finland considered part of Scandinavia?
If so, then Demigod,Amorphis, Cadaver,Molested, Necrophobic, Unanimated, Therion, Desultory, Afflicted,Unleashed,Seance,God Macabre,Eucharist, At the Gates all strike me as being better or at the very least equally as good as Death's Human which is my favorite Death album.
I don't think much of Grave and Carnage though

I was just trying to give my opinion. Chillax brah
