The Thread Where You Talk About Music You Like

I doubt most high school bands, even in Europe, know musical theory when they write metal songs.

 

[Impudent]

Fuck music theory! HEAVY METAL PLAY LOUD!

So yeah. Candlemass. Pretty , no?

YES. Excited to hear new stuff, actually - which is something I never thought Id be able to say about non-Messiah Candlemass.

im listening to the latest Forgotten Tomb album "Negative Megalomania". Other than Life Sucks, has anyone else got an opinion on it? I'm not really seeing the appeal of this band, they are striking me as remarkably generic at the moment (although I'm only up to my second listen)

European musicians are more intelligent musically regardless how much theory they know or not at a young age. Regardless from where I think majority of musicians are inbetween 16-20 when putting out their first cd when it comes to the metal genre. It's not like you listen to any bands that know theory anyways!!

I also think the culture it self in europe is a reason why musicians have better grasp at playing an instrument. I don't live there but can tell the living is much better based on music and things I have seen. Besides that people seem to have more freedom and have better laws.

You're talking out of your ass, The Greys. Keep it coming.

Just listened to Heart of the Ages for the first time in quite a while, great album. The last few minutes of The Divinity of Wisdom are just brilliant.

I think it's decent. it kind of reminds me of early Katatonia but with Burzum-ish vocals (or at least it does on Songs to Leave...haven't heard the one you speak of).

I know this isn't metal....but I like Hawkwind.

I liked it.

I guess I finally came around for Maiden, and also discovered a real cool NWOBHM band called Angel Witch. fuckin A!

 

[skeptik]

Iron Maiden and Angel Witch rule, yes. Definitely among the top of the crop of NWOBHM bands.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

*firm handshake*

Welcome to the light side, my friend.

 

[ohiogrinder]

it feels awesome.

 

[ohiogrinder]

and where did my band logo sig go?

 

[Life Sucks]

Angel Witch are pretty good, but I like Pariah better. Some NWOBHM is pretty cool, but sometimes I can't get past the silly lyrics about girls, sex, partying, etc.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

lyrics about girls, sex, partying, etc.
