; it would be probably too much metal for them ... I know enough people who think think that way....
I will definitely get this the next time I find myself in a record store ! No second thoughts about thatagonija said:Well, I listen to Kata actually every day and I am definitely not depressedtheir music gives me somehow actually strength and doesnt make me feel down, but I am a devoted fan, so I would surely miss their music a lot in my life....and yes, there is an album with Mikael singing, Brave Murder Day from 1996 and the mini-album Sounds Of Decay, where their actual singer Jonas played the drums.
I didn't say Katatonia were depressing.Just to emotional from time to time that makes me fell depressed.Oook **Looks down** I am a Weirdo, so what ? I sometimes get the same with My Dying Bride and Anathema
I think we are still waiting for it in Greece.agonija said:
-agonija said:Even my mother likes Nothing Else Matters and Mama Said
My mother is a musician, so I have this cd in my car with Ozzy and every time she takes it for a ride she turns it even louder than me.I sneak up on her the other day and she was playing "Goodbye To Romance" on the piano So basically you are **Takes out Calculator** ...31. Metal is the only kind of music you will see this.I am 10 years younger and we share the same interests.I just love it ! It shows that metal is not just a fashion that wears off with time but the only mature genre that sticks with you for life ! I wanna die old with a Sabbath record and a beer in my handsagonija said:

Yes, that´s true what you say about Kata - but that is the main reason why I love their music so much, it is so emotional, check out their new album, the vocals are incredible and they have become more heavy than on their latest albums - definitely already my favourite album of the year!
You are a Weirdo?
yeah, I like Anathema and MDB too, but more their old albums; just heard a new Anathema song on their official site, don´t like it all, it is so cheesy....
-Madder Mortem it is !
Madder Mortem it is...what???

wow, you are 10 years younger than I am! Yes, I am 31
As I was a teen and my mother had to suffer because of my loud music ( I also used to play e-guitar back then), she was hoping all the time that I would stop listening to metal when I grow up
-On thorns I Lay is playing a very let me call it "sensational" metal.I like them a allot, but what do I know ?
You know a lot, as I see
-Nightwish,Pathetic ? I don't get it ! Yeah, I pray to god they find someone that can actually sing as good as Tarja.If they come out with a new album I will definitely check a song or two from the internet before getting it.BTW of all I hear Tarja decided to stick to the Nightwish sound and make a project of her own.I think she has already recorded a song (I don't remember the title as it was told to me but i think it has something to do with angels) Not 100% sure about that so this can just be bullshit.
I am really a Nightwish fans since the beginning actually, but although the last album was really bombastic, there are some pathetic moments for me, like this Indian song (I don´t get a name right now), really good idea actually, but a bit too much for me, I wouldn´t dare to call it cheesy
-Train of thought is good too by Dream Theater.
Yes, but not so good for me as their older albums, just a matter of taste I guess.
-Iced Earth:Having your countries national anthem as an opening for your record.Shoot me now
- Some other Greek bands I failed to mention:Septic Flesh, Astarte and Nightfall.
I actually know Septic Flesh, but again didn´t know it is a greek band. We don´t really have many good metal bands in Germany at the moment, everyone is too busy somehow looking for a next popstar or a german superstar...
Some didn't like my signature so i had to cut it down to size ans make the lihgtnings slower, but now I think its Ok.
your signature didn´t bother me before, it is definitely ok.
agonija said:I guess many people who listen to load, reload or black album definitely wouldn´t like Kill ´em All or Ride The Lightning (actually all four 80´s albums) even if they would know these masterpieces
I will definitely check that one out so as most albums by Katatoinia as soon possible.I am starting to enjoy that type of metal by the day.agonija said:
Old Anathema albums are great,you can totally see their sound evolving in time with each work. But their latest albums are just too soft for me.They may have discovered a whole new style of music but I believe they went over the top and simply dont fall under the category of metal any more.As for old MDB albums I dont know much since I recently discovered them myself.agonija said:
What I meant was that I will check the band out.agonija said:
I am so glad this aint just an other kids-only forum.Given the chance to debate with people that have seen former metal eras like the 80searly 90s or even the 70s is great.There is so much to learn from them,I just wish I was older myselfagonija said:
I only started listening to metal in the year 1999-2000 when I saw an Ozzy clip on tv and loved it.I asked a metalhead friend of mine the very next day who Ozzy was(I had no idea what Black Sabbath was back then) and he gave me my fist record.You dont need to worry about me stopping corresponding with you cuz I would never do that.Many of my friends from school age more than 30, as a matter of act a week ago me an my friends were getting drunk in a pub with a couple of 50-55 or even more year old rockers.These guys were so lucky to have seen Led Zeppelin live.Metal keeps you young in hart and gives you the wisdom of age in the mind.
My mother used to think the same and since she is a classic piano musician,she had a reason more to think my music is sound pollution.In the end instead of me giving up on metal,my mother started stealing away my old Therion recordsagonija said:As I was a teen and my mother had to suffer because of my loud music ( I also used to play e-guitar back then), she was hoping all the time that I would stop listening to metal when I grow up
I used to play guitar too,or I tried to.WOW ! so you are married and still have time for metal !How does you husband/wife (I am not really sure if you are a girl or a guy)feel about you still going to festivals.Does he/she share the same passion ?
On Thorn I Lay is worth checking if you are into this type of metal.Check a song or two first from the internet before getting an album.I dont think I know anything like most people but I try to learn.I support that in my signature quote,see One Evil,Ignoranceagonija said:
I am a huge Nightwish fan too and its one of my favourite bands actually.Some people find it strange how I combine Opeth and Dark Tranquillity with Nightwish.agonija said:I am really a Nightwish fans since the beginning actually, but although the last album was really bombastic, there are some pathetic moments for me, like this Indian song (I don΄t get a name right now), really good idea actually, but a bit too much for me, I wouldn΄t dare to call it cheesy
The song you are looking for is Creek Marys Blood.I seam to like that song.I was walking in Athens the other day and there was this street band of Indians playing The Last Of The Mohicans with traditional instrument.Usually Im not into that sort of think but I loved theirs and got their cd.After that any chance of combining metal with Indian music is supported.(I think NW wasnt the first band to do that,there is this other power band Shaman that have a similar thing in their album)
I just pointed out that Train Of Thought is not as bad as some other of their works like 6 degrees of inner turbulence.agonija said:
The last good album under the label of Iced Earth is Alive In Athensagonija said:

Thoth-Amon said:
guess I´m still bit confused today, just got up....) actually hates metal.....he is not so much into music anyway as I am, he usually listens to crap like Coldplay, Robbie Williams or some german Popmusic...if I really want to make him angry, I just need to play stuff like Opeth or Katatonia or (his worst nightmare) some black- or death metal as loud as possible he used to visit with me couple of gigs some years ago (like Paradise Lost, Kreator, Sentenced), but he really doesn´t feel comfortable there so I am going to concerts and festivals with my friends.... Well, my honey got to know me as a metal fan, so he has to live with that, I have to live also with Robbie and Eminem ; late 80´s and early 90´s were really great until grunge came up and killed metal

j/k
metal_monkey said:WHAT????
So is a pain when you both are in a car and can't decide on what to listen to?
My guy is a major metal and I love him and steal his concert shirts when he's not looking....
if I drive I can decide on what we listen, if he drives, then we usually listen to an odd mainstream radio station. I guess that´s what marriage is sometimes about - being able to compromise.
Black Core said:
seems like it got somehow out of control
Well once you just get used to heaviness and speed, etc. it doesn't really bother you anymore. Wow, that was redundant. Anyway yeah for me I started off with the Black album and then just forced myself to listen to death metal and just got used to it and now very little seems that heavy to me.agonija said:
not really, I just wanted to say something with big ass in itagonija said:sorry if our big ass posts are annoying for you
agonija said:Well, it depends on who is driving
How long have you been married if I may ask?
metal_monkey said:Yep loooooooooooots of compromise.
So you have musicians blood running in side you.agonija said:
I used to have piano lessons too but I quit.Playing classical music in the age of 7 is not that cool.
You are so evil having your husband listen to Opethagonija said:Yes I am married and my husband ( I am a female
All my friends are like that too and every time I wanna get rid of them like when in times they want me to drive them somewhere or fix their computers,I put on Nile. works every time.
You do that ! As for Meshuggah, never heard of them. Evergrey have a very good album that I checked once(dont recall the name) Their last album you see in the forums advertisement Monday Morning Apocalypse (sounds like a Garfield episodeagonija said:
) is not that good of all I hear.God Forbid is a band I need to check for myself cuz everybody I know say they are just stupid.
Blind guardian is one of the bands with epic lyrics I actually enjoy and old school power like Helloween and Grave Digger have my respect.Dont know much about Rage but Kreator is my thrash band.agonija said:
Corvus Corax .You actually know them ? Are they so popular in Germany ? I had no idea.! I thought I was the only one who knew and actually enjoyed this band.I came across them in the internet and checked them out.finally I got one of their records after days of search. Rammstein is a band I band I like too,but only for fun.some of their songs have great rhythm but I dont get most of the lyrics.My German is a bit poor since I never practiced them that much.(I am ¼ German too)
Oook, stupid question coming up but since my English is not that good here it goes. What is grunge that killed metal and how do I kill it ?agonija said:grunge came up and killed metal
