IrisRose Posted June 7, 2008 I'm a new user registration, so hi everybody (I'm Dr Nick). I like the chat here, ethno people who like metal - there's a lot of people into this scene who like the techno stuff more. which I have always thought to be a shame................................................. But cmon seriously if anyone with any interest in music for its technical aspects, including song production, listenes to Lamb of God, and throws away the oh i dont like metal bullshit, then they must see the ultimate songcraft compared to the pretenders. and to seem maybe unpopular, ayjay101, that 'virgin black' band should not really have the word metal in their description. Sorry if you are offended. it looks and sounds like drama queen stuff. heres a small jam from chris and willy adler that speaks volume about what we should expect from metal in 2008..................keep in mind that this is just two instruments, drums and guitar, the original song is more complicated. friendly warning, emo hardcore folks wont get much out of this, cos these guys are actually musos.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJSp6cGMD9o...feature=related maiden are still cool, but a bit dated now. bullet for my valentine released a 'smoking' heavy album 2 years back. metallica have some sharp records in their history, get over the lars/james ego shit. mastodon work my head lately. brutal and unique. also purple, zep, sabs, ccr, ratm, soad, aic (all the dead artists!) agree that ozi band ALCHEMIST were cool, many eastern motives, and the mosh circle in the early days was, interesting, specially at the old feedback room in newtown. sadly they didnt sell the units, even though they have come back recently with material, its a no go because most people arent into THAT style. ok, rock on all !!!!!!!!!!

Overactive Luke Posted June 9, 2008 Devin townsend is great to listen to while baked - soo many layers and things going on. Opeth, SYL, Meshuggah are all great metal bands. Porcupine tree's new stuff is pretty heavy at times as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yawning Man Posted June 9, 2008 Hey Irisrose, welcome to the forums. Thought i'd just mention judas preist are coming to aus. But i'm really excited because Max and Igor Cavelera are supporting them. Hopefully the Caveleras will do a side show, if they do i'll go and see that...not really into priest. cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kindness Posted June 9, 2008 I have carried on about feedback to so many people in the last 10 years to be greeted with vague smiles. Nice to see that there are others out there who remember that dodgy club! Man I was 16 and getting served there!!! late twenties now and i still remember the place spinning and seeing some amazing and really crap bands there!!! thanks for the blast from the past bro! peace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stinkmeat Posted June 23, 2008 Hey Genesis, Whats sort of metal are Nile? They are another band that I have heard a bit about but never listened to. Just typical (I don't mean typical in a bad way) death metal? And what is a good album of theirs to look into? Stink? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yawning Man Posted June 23, 2008 haha stinkmeat, you must be a real metal head if Nile is the only band out of that list you don't know. I need a job so i can get some new metal albums. anyway, coal chamber are an awesome band i remember loco and fiend were two songs i was obsessed with! The singer of cc has a new band called devil driver (which i think someone mentioned earlier), not sure if they're any good. Anyone know/like aussie band karnivool? They're pretty decent. cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stinkmeat Posted June 23, 2008 Haha, Nile is the only one that other people have mentioned as being good. I like a bit of Coal Chamber too. Not a massive fan of Devil Driver, but they have some good work. Karnivool is one band that I am just starting to get into actually. I have only heard a bit, but seems promising. Their heavier songs are really cool but the softer stuff is "not so much." Stink? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderIdeal Posted June 24, 2008 i mentioned a few of the others. anyway, it's been a while but nile isn't run of the mill death metal. they've been around for a while, i'd probably call it kickass technical death metal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genesis Posted June 24, 2008 Nile is a death metal band. The lead singer looks like a pedo and the guitarist plays a retarted custom. They are pretty good, lol. They are like Death/black metal, lil to heavy for me these days. And for Karnivool *Gently weeps* I hate their faces. A mate tried to get me into them with not much luck. I think Children is playing in Melbourne this week, I missed out as per usual, would have been a mad balls gig. ALSO Slipknot has their new album out soon and Lamb of God just bought out a new DVD, check it out... Gen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angry, angry young man... \m/ RRRROOOOOOAAAAARRRRRR Gen bit on nu metal in there BUT I think most of those bands go under in unmentionable catergory u guys must not have heard the latest Alchemist album. IrisRose: Virgin Black Id say is gothic and also 'operatic', they do very well in that niche. If you really want to listen to technical metal cant go much past SpastikInk (ex Watch Tower) Sleepytime Gorilla Museum also rate for me. ohhhhhh Mastodon are waaaay frantically technical.

Stinkmeat Posted June 25, 2008 The lead singer looks like a pedo Haha. I like your description Gen I have only heard a couple of Alchemist songs, but they didn't leave a lasting impact. As for the new Slipknot album. Has anyone heard the new single? and any opinions? I don't personally like it much. But each to their own. Stink? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderIdeal Posted June 25, 2008 i missed the bodom gig in brissy cuz 18+ tix were sold out testament in november i have been giving testament a re-listen. i dunno if it's just because i'm so familiar with the songs, but damn they are staunch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GingaNinja Posted June 25, 2008 i missed the bodom gig in brissy cuz 18+ tix were sold out you know you can buy under 18's ticket if you over 18. just have to hang with all the yungin's was keen to check out bodom live but ran out of cash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genesis Posted June 25, 2008 Yer but that sucks, the point of a metal gig is to get a skin full and smash yourself into large metalheads name Yorgan. It ain't metal if your not bleeding from the face and/or have your shirt ripped off. You can't do that if your in an under 18's gig drinking poweraide and swaying with the 16 y/o goth/emo fucks. My mate went and he said it was amazing, showed me the intro to Needles 24/7 he fimed on his phone. Also Alexi started playing that "Umbrella" song by Rhianna... Now thats metal...

Gen Haha, remind me to stay away from you at any metal concerts. I personally don't get into the whole "smashing myself into large metalheads" thing. I purposely steer clear of that actually I'd much rather just chill and appreciate the music and the show. Then leave with a feeling of contentment.

2b Posted July 1, 2008 But i'm really excited because Max and Igor Cavelera are supporting them WOW ! That's pretty exciting news. I was under the impression that they had a falling out, it had something to do with wives and girlfriends not getting along. Sepultura , was (and still is ) one of the greatest experiences i have had. 'Roots' is still on high rotation in my car even after all this time , it has to be one of the most powerful albums of all times, bar none. Once Max left the band it was all over , but that album is timeless. It has always intrigued me as to why i like powerfull metal type stuff , when i try to explain it all i can only say that the sound is felt, not so much listened too. The really cool thing is that i was meant to get over this kinda stuff as i got older. Wrong !!!!! I turn 40 next year I wear a suit to work and work in management have a wife a mortgage and two kids , and i love powerfull music I guess somethings come from deep inside................

Hmm from what i can remember max's girlfriend/wife was the bands manager and they (excluding max) decided to fire her, and max saw this as a betrayal and left. But sorry if i mislead you 2b, it's not sepultura supporting them, only max and igors side project 'the cavelera conspiracy'. Yeah man roots is a spiritual album for me and deffinately in my top 5 albums! I've heard a bit of sepultura with dayrl green the new singer and while it sounded ok, it had nothing on the 'max era' sep. two kids!? you'll be a cool dad lol. cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Genesis Posted August 3, 2008 (edited) its more like this man....FUCK YEAH Saw em last time they toured oz in 93 i think it was, cant freakin wait.:D:D:D HAHAHAH 93? Showing your age there... I wasn't even old enough to know what my dick did in 93... Want me to educate you in REAL metal? Hahha That being said I bet if I was old enough to go to gigs in 93 I too would have don'ed a denim vest covered in Megadeth patches. I kid, I kid. Metal had to start somewhere and you were there at the birth, respect. I would kill to be born in the 50's just so I could go watch a black sabbath gig while they were at their zeneth.
