Recommend A Good Band For me!

tomED · 20-01-2004 2:18pm #1

Hey!

I'm on the trail of some new music to listen to.
I haven't heard a new/out a while decent band in ages.

Last band albums I have been listening to are from:
(hed) pe
Disturbed
AudioSlave

Any suggestions form anyone of something new or something good that I should listen to!

I prefer to hear new bands - but even if they are old I may not yet have heard of em!

TA!

BLACK SABBATH

The first 8 albums:

Black Sabbath
Paranoid
Master Of Reality
Vol. 4
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Sabotage
Technical Ecstacy
Never Say Die

When you've got them move on to Zep. All the bands you like are just ripping off Sabbath and Zeppelin so just cut out the middleman.

Pesky kids!!!

Hatebreed - get the songs "Another day another vendetta"
Sick Of It all -get the songs "District" + "Potential for a fall"+ "Scratch the Surface"

mr_angry · 20-01-2004 2:44pm

Poor DocJ! Is there nothing sacred these days anymore, like respect for your elder's musical taste? Tsk Tsk. Pretty soon they'll be shouting "Contemporise man!!!" at us in the street... for shame!.

Try this:
HIM - Love Metal

It's better than the crap I expected.

Doctor J · 20-01-2004 2:48pm

Yes, part of me wants to guide the young 'un towards Poison - look What The Cat Dragged In

but I won't.

Nevermore - Dead Heart In A Dead World
Opeth - Blackwater Park

I'll shuffle off back to my home now

Ronan|Raven · 20-01-2004 3:07pm

Blind Guardian - Nightfall In Middle Earth
Edguy: Burning down the opera live

Töpher · 20-01-2004 3:46pm

Opeth
Dimmu Borgir
At The Gates
Emperor
Meshuggah

All fantastically amazingly brilliantly super!

Ph3n0m · 20-01-2004 5:08pm

A few I would recommend are

Suicidal Tendencies
Anthrax
Infectious Grooves
Anathema
Opeth
Death
Obituary
Pestilence

......there are loads more

Antisocialiser · 20-01-2004 6:18pm

There ever has been one band and thats rage against the machine so just go out an buy an album and ull be hooked - start with ratm self entitled and work your way up chronologically

Karl Hungus · 20-01-2004 7:38pm

Pesky kids indeed!

Well, is you want to 'Contemporise' then by all means do!
Just have a look to those golden oldies once in a while.

I see you like the Nu Metal side of things, so if you've not heard of them, try listening to Earthtone9, and maybe Withering Surface.

But all that was suggested already is grand.

Except for what Doctor J said!
He's like, really, really old!
Go back to the 60's, John Travolta!!!

nesthead · 20-01-2004 8:47pm

ye feckin kids and their nu-metal, lose that hed(pe) stuff pronto

if your partial to a bit of Iron Maiden, (Edward the Great,Best of The Beast, Rock In Rio and Live after Death should provide you with all the classics) power metal might sit well with you.

check out Iced Earth and Blind Guardian for starters, adn then maybe Hammerfall or Man'o'War if you like the really cheesy side.

depends what type of metal you are into really, you could like dimmu Borgir of Cradle Of Filth, or Cannibal Corpse or Slayer and Deicide, or In Flames, Scentenced and Children of Bodom or Opeth or Morbid Angel or Pig Destroyer or whatever!! there are so many great bands from so many genres of metal to choose from!

ThenComesDudley · 20-01-2004 8:49pm

Winnabego deal - plata o plomo

really good new band, albums only 17 minutes long but is really good,

or...

Fireball Ministry.

or

Helmet.

No one has mentioned Dark Tranquility, or Sinergy, or nightwish. Tsk tsk folks, shame, shame

Also try: Elvenking
Sonata Arctica

For power metal, or if you want something slightly faster Cant go wrong with CHildren of Bodom.

Man, I thought you were into Opeth, but you just lied to us all along

colincarnate · 21-01-2004 12:32pm

you've got; Saxon, Sabbath, Led Zepplin, Saxon... Saxon, SAXON!
ah mullet man...

my list:
Megadeth(still coming out with albums)
Gn'R(will never release that album)
Iron Maiden(Pure Evil!)
Scorpions

basically all mainstream bands, because they're not boring like so many metal bands...

Doctor J · 21-01-2004 12:34pm

Megadeth are mainstream?

colincarnate · 21-01-2004 4:05pm
