The Absence is a good one. I love the emotion and amazing they bring in their songs. Dead and Gone is a great one, along with Soul Reactor. Definitely give them a try.

And guys, how come every time I go on metal-archives my computer fucking freezes up and crashes? I'd love to go on that site, but I know what's going to happen after 30 tries.

I don't do drugs and I find it interesting.
Drugs are for boring people to think their less boring.

That said, I want to try pretty much all of them in my lifetime... y'know, ta see what they're like... and because I'm a boring person :P.

THE SAME RIFF? OVER AND OVER? YES PLEASE.

Altar has riffs?

Because I knew all the songs. Their songs are simple and easy to remember. Isn't that great? Not really.

Early Megadeth songs are hardly simple.
And I'm sure your bum chums Sabbath would disagree with you too.

I said underground bands.

Dead and Gone, Soul Reactor

There we go, bands that I HAVEN'T heard of.

Going to check them out.

MUNICIPAL WASTE TONIGHT!

Kick ass, oh yeah and four other bands I haven't heard of.

Municipal Waste - Horny For Blood.

Ahh, fuck man, so jellyous. They would be the band to see live. Try not to get killed or too intoxicated you lucky son of a bitch. Have fun. I expect a full report later.

They're not bands, they're songs by The Absence. I had a slight feeling I was being unclear -.-

Ohhhhhhh.

I thought you were recommending The Absence mainly and two bands similar, haha sorry.

And capn., I will do!

Leaving in ten minutes, intoxication and eradication will follow.

I have recently fallen in love with High on Fire. When I found out that my friend had all their albums, I borrowed them without permission. He knows now after being pissed for about 7 hours that he couldn't find them. Now it is almost constantly being played around my house.

It's all in how you treat it. Experiencing great things a second time, but with an altered perception, is as close as I'll get to experiencing that great thing for the first time. This is why I sometimes partake. I don't know how people drink and smoke on the regular though. That has always seemed odd to me.

I need some more black metal to listen too if anyone could give me a few exceptionally good bands, i quite like the more depressing black metal but whatever you have to reccomend is greatly appreciated.

shut up. that's the best stuff Ulver has done.

Speaking of black metal, is Immortal's latest album worth picking up? I gave the title track a listen to and it caught my attention really well.

Good depressing black metal:

Forgotten Tomb is great depressing black metal. That's really the only band I have, although I'd like to dig deeper into the sub genre as well.

forgotten woods are also quite depressing, as are striborg

Dunno how many of these are depressing, but here's a list of all the black metal bands I listen to:

Dark Fortress
Blodsrit
Gorgoroth
Tsjuder
Krypt
Dimmu Borgir
Dark Funeral
Behemoth
Moonspell
Dissection
Immortal
1349
Heaven Shall Burn

Some do it for that reason. I have partaken a few times before, but nothing retarded. Honestly, I think it is absolutely ridiculous for Marijuana to be illegal. Alcohol is legal and kills people, weed is illegal and cannot be overdosed on, and helps people reduce stress.

Uh. Why?

But anyways. This isn't 420chan. I tried out Shadow Host's Curse of the Angeleye, and it's pretty alright. I haven't discovered any good old school Power bands in a while. But it's nothing to go apeshit over finding. If you have the opportunity, give it a listen.

And to mothballs- I'm starting to really like A Hill to Die Upon. Thanks for the recommendation.

I'd say you're only a boring drug user if you do it to have a good time. I know totally normal guys who rule at life and they smoke occasionally.

I'm not gonna nitpick you though, Nev, 'cause I know you were exaggerating to make a point.

But without cheese its like...bland. It's like taking the cheese out of Blind Guardian and Rhapsody, you're just left with the same bland shit that everyone else is putting out.

Thanks for all the bands guys and yes i already have some Forgotten Tomb theyre amazing
and mothballs ill be checking the bands i havent listened to as soon as i can

Behemoth are the best place to start here, and also check out the early Dimmu Borgir not the later stuff. Dark Funeral are a good choice too.
Have you heard Chrone Division? Shagrath's side project?

Exiled from Light, Drowning the Light, Ovskum, Asbel, Make A Change...Kill Yourself, Daylight Dies, Frailty, Forgotten Tomb, Lyrinx, Wigirid, Wehmut, When Mine Eyes Blacken, Abysmal Sorrow.

I think NSBM just reached the highest level or racism to ever exist in this world.

Great band name don't you think?

ha. that's rich.

Impaled Nazarene.. Not depressing, quite punk-ish, but one of the best.
Gehenna is also really good, i dont know if its depressing, but it surely is atmospheric.

No problem man, just ask me whenever you want a recommendation. :)

Alright guys...I feel like a total dumbass asking this question, but how do I find out when and where metal shows are going on around my area? This site doesn't work, and this site makes me feel even worse about my problems. SOMEOEN HALP MEH D:

This. The cheesiness just makes them even more awesome and I could care less if anyone says otherwise.

I use Last.fm a lot to find out when any decent non-local bands are coming my way.

I think cheesey metal sucks. I don't think Diamond Head are cheesey. They're old, but not cheesey. But I think DragonFail are cheesey.

Thanks man...all I found though was Overkill, Vader, and God Dethroned on May 1st. Shit, nobody in New York listens to metal...and why the hell is Cannibal Corpse supporting Hatebreed? Putting them in the same lineup is bad enough, but supporting them?

This is actually really fun.

She likes Sonata Arctica.

And blowing me.

I'm so in love guys :D:D:D:D
