I'd recommend Metropolis, Pt. 2 too. But you don't seem to be a fan of post-Moore Dream Theater. So just get Images and Words.

That's not true. I liked Systematic Chaos.

I own Awake, Train of Thought, A Change of Seasons, and Octavarium. Awake is 10 times better than all of them put together.

Although the song A Change of Seasons is probably par with Awake.

At 3/3/08 05:24 PM, Nev wrote: Awake has a few weaker songs but more stronger ones. Images is just a very good album overall, and that constant level makes me like it more.

Weaker songs? Like... Innocence Faded, The Silent Man and Lifting Shadows off a Dream? They're all good songs in my opinion.

And again. Don't let Mr-Corleone join.

I checked out Benighted after Charon mentioned them.
Fucking love them.
Brutal as all hell, acquiring some at the moment.

Also Sense-Offender I got Neonism and Red for Fire by Solefald :D.
Both excellent.

This is still on subject, cause no one is as metal as Bernard.

The song itself, yes.

Innocence Faded

I love that song.

I'm glad you like them.

Dio - Holy Diver
Dio - The Last in Line
Dio - Lock Up the Wolves
Dio - Strange Highways
Dio - Killing the Dragon

I'm currently on a full-on Dio listening wave. I have rarely listened to any other stuff these days :P this man can do no wrong, it seems. Still have to listen to this "failure" record "Angry Machines". I'll see how that one's gonna turn out, but I'm sure it's better than its reputation.

Btw, I'm also looking for a new guitar to expand my possibilities. Which means, either a Baritone guitar, a 7-string or a nice new acoustic guitar. Any recommendations for the lower/middle-class price range?

No, its not. Its very popular and easy to find.

Its really not. Stream of Consciousness, A Change of Seasons and Octavarium (the song) are all either on par or better than anything on Awake.

Weaker songs? Like... Innocence Faded, The Silent Man and Lifting Shadows off a Dream? They're all good songs in my opinion.

Like 6.00, Caught in a Web and Innocence Faded.
I don't consider Silent Man a song on its own, but if I did I like it a lot, and Lifting Shadows is also good.

I thought that Black for Death was better than RfF.
I was greatly put off RfF due to 'Survival of the Outlaw' sounding like Lamb of God (or what I perceive LoG to sound like). Maybe I should just say Pantera.

Saying that I wish BfD had that girl singing on it, I liked her voice.

Just to throw my two dickles out there about dream theater: I "bought" their discography recently because I'm going to see them in May. I've been listening to them in chronological order, and I'm up to Metropolis pt. 2.

On one listen each of every album so far, including live albums, I would say A Change of Seasons is my favorite, followed by Awake. I did really enjoy Images and Words as well, just not as much. Not sure about individual songs (though I thought A Change of Seasons was an amazing song and is probably why that album ranks so high on my list).

In short, is the later stuff as good? Any further opinions or extrapolations?

No waay. And tis his irl name. I like both on the show, and both as stand ups, but i think Dylan wins on both cases. Sorry D:

Nope. There is no way Stream of Consciousness and Octavarium are on par with Awake. That is bullshit. Only A Change of Seasons is.

I fucking knew you would say that. I love those songs. Not Innocence Faded so much, but I love 6:00 and Caught in a Web.

And good luck with your live show. They kick arse live. Although my live show was a complete disaster, because they blew the power or something and only played half a show.... But I still got to hear Erotomania and Voices live, which was one of the greatest experiences of my life.

I like both albums equally. i don't think of them as separate albums, just an album separated, you dig?

RfF, in my opinion, has more good songs (my favourite is Sun I Call), but BfD good songs are better. So it really evens out.

Either way Solefald win.

Lamb of God
Nile
Opeth
Kataklysm
Black Sabbath
Hypocrisy
Three Inches of Blood
Judas Priest
Arch Enemy
Daath
Death
Dio

Finally, a new user with a list of more than 2 metal bands.

Lamb of God is somewhat borderline as far as metal goes, but the rest is all metal. Good job.

And props for including a band I've never heard of (Dååth), that doesn't happen often.

Get a 7 string if you want to expand and try/make new stuff. The only problem with that is it may cost a bit...

Can i ask why LOG borderlines metal? I always thought they were general metal.

Daath is amazing, they have some excellent songs. Check out Subterfuge, From The Blind and Ovum. I think you can find them songs on youtube.

I'll have to check it out as well.

I've also started to like Pain of salvation, anyone recommend something of theres?

Hey guys, anyone here good at death metal logos, ive been playing around with a few ideas but i suck, :-(

Breed the Beast - Thrash

cheers

Oh, and bands

8 foot sativa
Deicide
Suffocation
Cannibal Corpse
Black Dahlia Murder
Behemoth
Cryptopsy
Monolith Deathcult
Just a few bands at random

I enjoyed The Perfect Element Pt. 1, really the only downside I could find to the album was that the first track is kind of nu/alt metalish and the lyrics are just ... well kind of stupid, though it redeems itself once it reaches the solo. It's the only record of theirs I've heard but based on it alone, I'd say they're a pretty solid band and it's a pretty interesting and different album.

At 3/5/08 12:38 AM, SpeedMetalSandwich wrote: Can i ask why LOG borderlines metal? I always thought they were general metal.

There's a little bit of -core in their sound on some of their stuff, but their earlier stuff was definitely metal.

Their later stuff isn't as bad as what the fanboys say. I hear them complaining a lot about what DT have made after Scenes/Six Degrees.

At 3/4/08 11:16 PM, D3NTATUS wrote: And props for including a band I've never heard of (Dååth), that doesn't happen often.

I've not listened to their music yet, but their name always pops up when I search for Death in Zavvi and HMV.

A Change of Seasons is the best song they've ever written :). I bought a 7-string just to learn it :).

I saw one Dylan stand up and was deeply disappointed.
Bill is much funnier. Especially his first DVD of which the name escapes me :(.

Saaaaamm... check out this comedian, I'm seeing him next month and he is very funny but no one seems to like him :(. Go on youtube and search for Stewart Lee :).
I'll love you if you do.

Yeah, top much about alcoholism and wars and Iraq. Musically they remain brilliant, but lyrically its disappointing.

.... But I still got to hear Erotomania and Voices live, which was one of the greatest experiences of my life.

You're a scrote bag >:(!
The best I got was Take the Time.

You could try for a second hand 7-string.
I did and wasn't disappointed :). They're good fun.

Its not bad. All the songs on all the albums I like, except for the second disc of Six Degrees and Honor Thy Father.
But they're a bit too generic and they shouldn't be, like a lot of the tracks on Octavarium for instance. Lacking originality.

Going over the albums I got last year on my MP3. (got a few others, but most of them weren't metal, so I'll count the heavier ones)

Kill 'Em All - Metallica
Master of Puppets - Metallica
Ride The Lightning - Metallica

The Monster Show - Lordi
The Arockalypse - Lordi
Get Heavy - Lordi

Sonic Firestorm - DragonForce
Inhuman Rampage -DragonForce
Valley Of The Damned - DragonForce

The Triptych [Special Edition] -Demon Hunter

The Varigian Way - Turisis

A Twist In The Myth - Blind Guardian

United Abominations - Megadeth

GC's demo (can't remember its name) - Shores Of Sheol

I got a Bowling For Soup album, plus a wee bit of mallcore, sadly, I enjoyed it. D:

Is this list bad, or do I just need some education of the Metulz?

I take it you're all going to say "Both."

I listened to Blotted Science today and was blown away.
Very, very good technical instrumental Metal :).

And I got Death's Leprosy, Spirtual Healing, Human, Individual Thought Patterns, Symbolic and The Sound of Perseverance.

People that come across that song in GH3, play it, and they don't know the first thing about the band. It sickens me.

God help us if a CC song is on the next one. God help us all.

Also, I got
Kings and Queens-Axel Rudi Pell
Oceans of Time-Axel Rudi Pell

But I know nobody cares because nobody in this club has the balls to try them, apparently.

I got an almost first-hand ESP LTD 6-string Viper off ebay, for half the retail price :) (just a few hours playtime).

I also got some fat strings for tuning that lady down, if I need it. Does the job. I was mainly looking for a fast neck and good playability.
