I've only been listening to metal for about a month now. I used to be into a lot of really fucking shitty music, emo even. Then I got into punk, then hardcore. From there I went to metalcore and I am currently listening to lots of black metal with a bit of speed and some thrash. On that point, does anybody have any good BM band suggestions? I'm into some of the more melodic stuff, but heavy is good too.

Melodic BM... For a BM newbie I would say Emperor or Crionics.
Behemoth rocks too, and they are rather easy listening. Old man's child are not really BM (they are kind of Bm-ish viking melodic metal) but they will make of you a FAN of heavy music. Take your pick.

black metal, with a melodic touch.. then.. Ulver, Ljå, Ragnarok, Wyrd, Tartaros, Nordafrost, Mork Gryning... er.. others I can't remember right now, I'll look it up and name some more later

Woah! I'm sick for a few days and can't access the computer and i had to read through 3 new pages! Keep the conversation going, well done.

Well, I'm 190cm and got 80 kilos. Pretty standard i guess.

and i started out with Mallcore, stayed with it for far too long and got into Melo-Death and into about everything else after that, except most Power Metal.

I would reccommend Alghazanth, Aborym, Nargaroth, Burzum, Emperor, Dissection, Borknagar, Ulver, Ragnarok, Midian/Kali Yuga, Gorgoroth, Nordafrost, Behexen, Nightwing, Dark Funeral, Enthroned, and Exhausted Prayer. That is all for now.

I remembered now.. also, Carpe Tenebrum, Enslaved, Gehenna, Isegrim, Kult Ov Azazel, KVIST (you gotta get Kvist) and Scythe.. yeah

I have two Annihilator songs, but other than that I haven't checked into them much.

And Duffeknol, you are one sexy beast.

What genre is Annihilator?

Metal music? Sounds like static on my magic sound machine.

I LOVE YOU BOB!!!!

nawt all caps lawl!

And Annihilator is thrash/groove metal.

Ghoul and Setsuna, I am sure the three of us can list a lot of underground BM bands, but the poor guy is a BM N00b. Dont list stuff that are hard to listen to, which are too underground, too violent and too kvlt for a n00b!!!
Listing all sorts of underground stuff sounds like showing off. He should first start with known stuff like Emperor, Marduk, Dark funeral etc and then get to stuff like War88 or Behexen or Hate Forest!!!
(I am sorry maybe the showing-off part was not nice, never meant to insult)

DON'T YOU SPEAK TO ME LIKE THAT YOUNG MAN! Back in the day I fought in both WWs just so you can lay back and relax. Now show me the respect I deserve from back in the day.

Back in the day, metal music was preformed by clashing pots and pans together. Because they were made of metal, it was called metal back in the day. Now you youngens have twisted it into what sounds like static from my magic sound machine.

We understand Bob, but please sir, get out of this topic. We do not want TOO much spam in here.

awwww... You can find Mystic Forest on www.amazon.com :). Oh, and IAMCANADIAN should check out Stormnatt too. All the bands I listed had relatively good production, and were melodic. I don't know about Setsuna, but they weren't really kvlt, just underground.
