Recommend me some "Meat and Potatoes" songs.

[Chairman Kaga]

"Meat and Potatoes" as in metal songs that are mid-paced, very basic in terms of technicality, and are catchy as hell.

Songs kind of like...
Bitter Loss - Entombed
Innerself - Sepultura
Antichrist - Slayer
Or anything off of Bathory's first album or even Venom.

 

[Blind Guardian]

Meat and potatoes as in no fucking around in other words then.

Ulvaskall - Grand Magus
Soon To Be Dead - Dismember
Iron Fist - Sodom
Metal Milita - Metallica

 

[Thoth-Amon]

celtic frost- circle of the tyrants

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

Samael "Baphomet's Throne"

 

[waif]

Yeah, a lot of Celtic Frost is really simple, as is Venom and early Bathory. Not all that catchy though.

A lot of power metal fits this description - stuff like Tad Morose and Hammerfall.
Some stuff off 666 - To Ride Shoot Straight And Speak The Truth by Entombed
Check out One Rode To Asa Bay by Bathory - video on youtube. Long, but midtempo, pretty awesome.

 

[The Ozzman]

For All Those Who Died is pretty fucking catchy

 

[Zephyrus]

Arcturus - "The Chaos Path"
Behemoth - "Conquer All"
Borknagar - "Colossus"
Darkthrone - "In the Shadow of the Horns"
Gorgoroth - "Profetens Åpenbaring"
Vader - "The Sea Came in at Last"
Nachtmystium - "Chosen by No One"

 

[cookiecutter]

Suffocation - Liege of Inveracity
Devourment - Babykiller
Human Rejection - Last Abortion Mass
Vomit Remnants - Engorgement
Soils of Fate - Life Hijacker
Godless Truth - Mission:Fuck You
Disgorge - Atonement

 

[Thoth-Amon]

anything off of transilvanian hunger

catchy =/= gay

 

[waif]

I've always felt that people who randomly accuse things of being gay are covering up their insecurities.
Congratulations, you have a small dick.

 

[ohiogrinder]

oh thanks for noticing, chap. want to touch it?

 

[Blind Guardian]

the battle of the wits

 

[ohiogrinder]

oh and I was only refering to the power metal part of your post. so your overreaction was completely unnecessary.

 

[Manic Ferocity]

Terrorizer is catchy as fuck, ohioGRINDER.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Suffocation - Liege of Inveracity
Devourment - Babykiller
Human Rejection - Last Abortion Mass
Vomit Remnants - Engorgement
Soils of Fate - Life Hijacker
Godless Truth - Mission:Fuck You
Disgorge - Atonement

notworthy

 

[ohiogrinder]

Terrorizer is catchy as fuck, ohioGRINDER.

yeah, they are. and they are good.

 

[Manic Ferocity]

I just don't think catchiness necessarily means commercial.

 

[ohiogrinder]

I never said that. in fact I meant quite the opposite.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

catchy =/= gay

This doesn't make sense because every metal song is catchy in some way. Any song you can recognize upon random listen, no matter what band, has to be somewhat catchy to be remembered.
