New Internet Metal Radio Station comming soon.. Need suggestions

[urinalcakemix]

hey - In early spring 2004, a new Metal radio station is going to premier - a station I am in charge of. I need some help though. What are some bands that you'd like to hear on the station? Theres guaranteed to be a lot of symphony x, bodom, iced earth, and many many others. All metal sub-genres like black, death, doom, cheesy speed metal will be played.

Drop me some bands you'd like to hear, and if you would like to be a DJ and have experience with shoutcast feel free to email me @ urinalcakemix@hotmail.com - all feedback/support appreciated!

Play some Twisted Tower Dire. www.twisted-tower-dire.com Their mp3's are on mp3.com, which is F'ed.

I dunno, I just really like them.

Rhapsody!!

All your suggestions sounded good... I'll definately have to tune in.

 

[RequiemX]

The best suggestion I have is to use MP3 streaming like Live 365 instead of Windows Media or RealPlayer streaming because, well, those suck. Oh, and don't forget to play some Star One and Nightwish and After Forever!

 

[urinalcakemix]

The station will be streaming through Shoutcast - Winamp plugin. I find it very easy to use, straightforward etc. Looking for about 4k more songs before launch, anyone know any quick, legal ways of getting this on a tight tight budget?

yeah, DL them off KL, oh, wait, you said l e g a l...

Check Audiogalaxy's Rhapsody (www.audiogalaxy.com), it's a service where you have to pay a certain amount to download songs. I don't remember what's the amount, though.

symphony x is a must, any dream theater before train of thought if u want drummers to stay awake, anything by kalmah, bodom, skyfire, norther, and DEFINATELY adagio. nile, old soilwork, newer arch enemy, older megadeth even. planet X, sonata arctica, time requiem and similar bands. It sounds like it'll come out great!

 

[Serge...]

Death:
Swedish Stuff like Arch Enemy (PRE ANGELA), Dark Tranquillity, Opeth, The Haunted etc..
Old American Death Metal like Death and Pestilence should do pretty well.
Brutal/technical death like Necrophagist, Suffocation, Severed Savior, Cryptopsy, Decaptitated, Dying Fetus, and Spawn of Possession
Jazz Death like Cynic and Atheist
CHILDREN OF BODOM

Black: I'm not into that stuff, but I'm pretty into troll/folk stuff like Vintersorg, Ulver, and Finntroll. I guess stuff like Dimmu Borgir and Emperor as far as more Symphonic BM.

Power/Prog:
Symphony X, Adagio, Sun Caged, Stratovarius, Nightwish, Nevermore(doesn't fit in the category, but what the hell), Pain of Salvation

Shred/Instrumental: Greg Howe, Jason Becker, Andy Timmons, Yngwie

 

[Demonspell]

I'll definitely check out the station, Internet radio can be very helpful in discovering new music...

I have been using some of the stations run via www.live365.com; the same site UM runs their from. They have pretty much everything by everyone.

Check it out, it's pretty good.

This thing's pretty awesome, thanks.

 

[urinalcakemix]

Is it just me, or does the UM station play ONLY:

Slayer - Dead Skin Mask [Live]
or
Nevermore - Ambivalent?

Those are the only 2 songs I ever see there, something else from time to time, but more than 75 percent of the time its either of those tracks...

 

[urinalcakemix]

Anyone listen to Twisted Tower Dire? I listened to a couple of their Mp3's on their site, and there going to be sending me a promo kit, im looking forward to it! need more bands =)
