Various metal - Page 2

Every Time I Die is fucking incredible. They don't get a lot of respect in the metal scene being more hardcore than metal, for playing Warped, too many cleans, all that shit. But Keith Buckley is a mad scientist genius.

"When in Rome we shall do as the Romans...
When in Hell we do shots at the bar."

"This isn't at all unpleasant. I'm enchanted by the lavish ballet,
And I'll whistle the tune all the way to the gallows that I heard at the cabaret."

"If they come back they're drunk and they're lonely.
We all get lonely.
God forbid we indulge when at sea.
Just the tempest, the temptress and me."

"We don’t dance no no no.
We got class.
No we don’t have any fun at all.
It’s the new style and we know it."

"I've got a bone to pick with the morning sun and the first last call
But I didn't put my hair in a pony tail for nothing, so if I'm going home alone I ain't going at all.

And all of "Inrihab" is good.

FulorianC · 10-03-2007, 05:30 PM

If you like your metal more, ah... civilized? I would suggest Kamelot, Nightwish, Within Temptation, and Lacuna Coil.

Simas · 10-03-2007, 05:53 PM

Not to start that old thread again but most of the stuff in the OP isnt metal. Not that what follows nec. is, love me some endless genres. Also, as some one else metioned, all you As I Lay Dying fans, you know theyre a Jesus band right? Fuck christ-core.

Baroness
High on Fire
Giant
Pelican
Isis
Torche
Jesu
Winter Sun
Nile
Sun O))) (whatever)
Borris
As the Sun Sets
Daughters (AtSS is better)
Fuck...I'm dead
Goatwhore
Cream Abdul Babar
Planes Mistaken for Stars

who the fuck cares if they are a christian band? So is Zao or was when they produced some of their best music, and living sacrafice was a very top notch band. Fuck you and your small minded bullshit. If a band of jack offs can sing about goats, satan and various other occultic stuff why the hell does it matter if someone is mewling about christ?

good metal is good metal period.

niteflyx · 10-03-2007, 06:49 PM

Anyways, most of the bands you originally listed are 'Core-ish; I'm more into Melodic Death/Technical Death, but I do occasionally go for some core shit.

Check out:
All That Remains
Silent Civilian
Threat Signal (Sort of Hybrid-Metal)
Sonic Syndicate (Kind of poppy, melodic death-core..ish?)

I only really care about Poison the Well to be honest.

Friday, October 5th
Saosin
Norma Jean
Alexisonfire
The Dear+Departed

Looking forward to Saosin and Norma Jean.

Nov 30th:
As I Lay Dying
Between the Buried and Me
All That Remains
Haste the Day

One of the grr METAL guys at work was trying to get me to listen to Poison the Well awhile ago when they were coming in to town. They were alright, but unless our music tastes diverge a whole lot you'll like every time i die and maylene too. Maylene not so much for the music as their silliness. Underoath drew a ridiculously shitty crowd last time I saw them (with Norma Jean) so have fun with that one. That said I'm jealous you get to see all of those bands at one show.

I care, i dont like vocals about finding Jesus etc over country twang or hip hop beats or metal scales and double bass.

It matters if you listen to songs for themes, lyrics etc as opposed to for the general sound. Lyrics are a huge factor in my liking a band, its possible they are for others here too, actually itd be interesting how many people valued one over the other, and so the content matters.

Alot of christ-core kids are like alot of straight edge kids. Theyre assholes.

With that said if As I lay Dying and Underoath were singing about things i was interested in I still wouldnt be into em, im not really into that sorta music, metal-core loosely.

Cuppycake · 10-04-2007, 06:52 PM

Alright - so I saw this show last night. Even though I was absolutely sicker than a dog, I dragged myself out since I already had the tickets.

Underoath
Everytime I Die
Poison The Well
Maylene and the Sons Of Disaster

First off - Poison the Well put on a very lackluster show. They had very little energy, didn't sound great and the crowd just didn't get into them. I've seen them before and I seem to remember them being better.

Having said that....
Maylene and the Sons of Disaster were decent. Like you said, they were VERY silly on stage - and the music wasn't half bad. Reminded me of a silly old Metallica + southern metal thing.

Every Time I Die were incredible. Definitely the best of the lineup, and wow was the crowd brutal. Really REALLY enjoyed the show. Second time I've seen them, and damn they blew me away this time.

Underoath did not disappoint either. They had a sit in drummer who flew out last minute so they didn't have to cancel the show. They had never even played with the guy - and he was phenomenal, maybe even better than their actual drummer. They played a good setlist, and it was a great show. Really enjoyed it.

Looking forward to Norma Jean tomorrow night - and Glassjaw on the 29th.

Cuppycake · 10-30-2007, 12:45 PM

Saw Glassjaw last night at the House of Blues.

Excellent, but brutal show. They didn't have any openers and played for a long time. Did a nice mix of songs off their two albums, and also played 3 from their new album that they're working on. Daryl is one hell of a crazy guy, but wow - what a voice. It's been a few years since I've caught a Glassjaw show, and I completely forgot how he can scream with the best of them and then hit ridiculously high notes in full voice without faltering. Looking forward to the new album now, as a couple of the new tracks were decent sounding. Was a little sad they didn't play Piano..but they played the following songs for sure:

Ape Dos Mil
Pretty Lush
Siberian Kiss
Motel of the White Locust
When One Eight Becomes Two Zeros
Pink Roses
Gillette Cavalcade of Sports
Two Tabs of Mescaline
(You Think You're) John Fucking Lennon

More too but I can't remember. Anyway, go see them if you can.

Elidroth Renato · 10-30-2007, 01:26 PM

Dragonforce is so ridiculously overrated it's not even funny. They play stupidly fast (with no point to the solos I might add). I saw them open up Ozzfest in 06, and sat there laughing.

The stuff I can't stop listening to lately are:

Killswitch Engage
Avenged Sevenfold
Symphony X
Dream Theater (although NOT the new disc.. it just doesn't grab me at all)
Muse
Slipknot (they rule the theatrical/horror show metal IMO)
Fair to Midland (can't tell you why though)

Cuppycake · 10-30-2007, 01:31 PM

Ugh Elidroth. Saying Dragonforce are overrated but you can't stop listening to Avenged Sevenfold and Slipknot? =(

It's a good thing you're a Muse fan.

Gudrid · 10-30-2007, 01:35 PM

I like Dragonforce for their epic lyrics and high energy.

I've been listening to YouTube - Kiuas - Warrior Soul recently. Not the best vocals, but I like it overall. Nerdy-epic-fantasy lyrics + some form of metal ftw.

This is my style of music. Somehow I hadnt even heard of Threat Signal or Sonic Syndicate before.

From a couple random listens Threat Signal sounds a lot like Fear Factory to me... just not as good. Zero Signal...

Sonic Syndicate seems pretty decent. Going to look into them more!

I wont say much about Slipknot...but Avenged Sevenfold has a lot of talent behind them. I am surprised that they would be put into the overrated bin by anyone. Each to their own though.
