Prong (more gruffish)
Blind Guardian
Gamma Ray
The Sword.

Gamma Ray is MOST excellent (/bill and ted)

Yes. Perfect for his clean singing and melody thing.

I was gonna ask for some help, I've hit a bit of a dead end with my music at the moment, so I'd like you guys to recommend me a few bands to check out.

Can do.

Singing and Melody.

I'm not too familiar to those kinda vocals in metal...

To elaborate, by Singing I mean when the vocals hold notes

I call "singing" grunting, shrieking, growling, not pussy singing.

As for melody, it's pretty straight forward, I love the technical, sweeping riffs in many Bodom songs, and there are some really nice rhythms in a few Iced Earth songs.

Never mention them again here. They are despised.

All the bands I listen to at the moment are -

Children of Bodom

They're acceptable but hated.

Metallica

Not a fan, but acceptable.

System of a Down

No.

Iced Earth

Dunno.

Disturbed

No.

Slipknot (3ish songs, where the singer actually sings instead of shouting, etc.)

No.
Noooo.
NOOO!!

FinnTroll (Only really like 1 or 2 songs, need more Viking / Folk metal!)

Dunno.

Papa Roach ( I know, I'm sorry. :( )

Fuck.
Fuuuuuck.
FACK!!

Help me out?

Here are the bands I listen too. Try them.
Decrepit Birth - Of Genocide is all instrumental. Get Await the Undending too.
Kataklysm - As I Slither.
Carcass - Black Star.
Devourment - Baby Killer and Choking on Bile.
Exhumed - Bone Fucker.
Goratory - Infant Skin Suitcase.
Gorgasm - The Essense of Putresense.
Knights of the Abyss - Welcome to Camelot.
Lord Gore - Morgue Whore.
Necrophagist - Demished to Be.
Suffocation - Peirced from Within
Vehemence - God Was Created <--good.

Try weed, you won't get headaches. Unless you already do, then try Whip-Its for an inhalant (sp?)

And did anyone know GoatChrist's old name was - KornfreakeR? lol, we all started with shitty tastes.

I think, when it comes to soothing him into metal, that might be too much for him..
but his Iced Earth an Finntroll is a start.
especially if he likes Iced Earth, he will like most power metal. like gamma ray, blind guardian, Persuader, Savage Circus, Helloween etc...

Have you been talking to Idio!?! cause I dont see that

speaking of dads and drokness, i think i have a better story than most people. when i was 7 my dad got me drunk because he wanted to see how much beer a seven year old could drink. and in other alchabooze related discussion...shit, i drank a bottle of rum on the weekend and had to go to hockey the next day. wasnt very fun for me. but apperantly it was mildly entertaining for people watching me.

I CANT STOP FUCKING LISTENING TO SIGH. WTF.

im mostley into thrash metal and classic rock. i play the bass, acoustic and electric guitars and im forming a band called The Serpent Libido... so can i join

The only one I could really add to what others have suggested is Angra. And Dream Theater, but you've probably heard of them already.

thats happened to me before, except without the laughing

I seriously thought everyone knew that my oldest name was "KornFreakeR" :P

Yeah, one does indeed grow up. Back in the day (2003) I listened to Korn, Godsmack and the likes. I'm just glad I never thought that Slipknot were a good band.

and Charon. that Sperm post was way after my prime here. But it was fun. Yes.

and I agree with ShitOnAStick looking like a Angelina hybrid with short hair. Sorry. Don't worry though, I'm not gonna drool all over the place.

....maybe later :)

Nah, seriously, I should get drunk again. I see people talking about beer and I really need some fine alcohol. I smell the need for it, i wasn't drunk in AGES.

I wouldn't worry about it. I mean, whether most metalheads want to admit it or not, a lot of their first bands were shit like korn or slipknot or what not. Nu metal might be shit, but it has been a gateway to real metal for a lot of people.

Can't hurt anyone.You should definitely do it, then come here drunk to make an ass out of yourself :)

like me, my first bands that weren't pop punk were Slipknot and Disturbed, I'm not ashamed to admit at one time I worshiped nu metal bands

My first bands were slayer and exodus and venom and such. I never listened to nucrap or metalcore. Everybody says they went through such a phase; I did not. Prior to those bands, I didn't listen to much music save for Alice in Chains and Soundgarden.

i went through a slipknot phase. other than that i just lisened to thrash before i got into the stuff im into now.

on another note (one that alex will like) i went through the first sitting on my ulver tattoo today. i have to go back in a month or so to get it filled in.

I listened to Disturbed and Godsmack for a while... But that was it. I grew out of that in like 2 months. Hey! Guess what I went and bought today!

1x Cannibal Corpse 'Eaten Back to Life' t-shirt = $33.00
1x 'Arsenal of Megadeth' DVD = $34.99

I was going to buy a CD, but now I'm broke.

At 1/11/07 02:58 PM, ThePaintingHerb wrote: Oh. My. God. If those bands are in the metal section at your store, you should torch the place.

I should torch the place, but I'd rather just get the faggot emo music out of there and placed in rock/pop. I don't want to destroy local music shops that I regularly go to. :P

The staff know such bands aren't metal, but I expect it's put in the metal section because they think the kind of people looking there will also be interested in that sort of music

That would be a bullshit reason to put crap in the metal section. They should put emo shit in the pop/rock section.

why not new and old punk too?

It would be better to just put all the punk stuff in rock/pop.

nope, but however when I have money to spend I will buy some non-thrash cds in order to expand my cd collection a little further

I've got to do that sometime..... just put them on the floor and kick them under the stand thingy.

Have you noticed how they place the "Metal" section next to the Urban section? I think thats weird.

Garr... reading over 6 pages of stuff is a bit shit :(.

Haha, wonderful idea.

That's only in MusicZone. In Virgin and HMV, the nearest other music section is rock/pop.

And I was reading 4 new pages today and yesterday.
