Heavy Metal Thread (and Associated Genres)

I like (old) while she sleeps for anger

Generally speaking I’m usually not an angry person, rather I tend to get sad in response to perceived injustice/wrongdoing. As a result I prefer music with depressive undertones… Like shining, in flames, dark tranquility, at the gates, betzefer etc

I know some goodies! :slight_smile:

My favorite black metal band!

I dunno what the hell you call this genre but it’s awsome

Lovecraftian themes, astrophysics, astrobiology, transhumanism, philosophy, and molecular biology to the tune of technical death metal! What’s not to love!!!

The world can always use some good ol devil worshipping black n roll

This one makes me wanna fight a mountain, oh! and the MV is great.

So much more but I don’t wanna overdo one post, have fun!

Yeah their lighting guy is basically a member of the band. Absolutely insane.

This was definitely my favourite track off their latest album. Such a groove.

Meshuggah has inspired me to give up playing the drums.

Have you heard Bill Burr talk about Meshuggah’s drummer? You should - it’s pretty funny / accurate

Watching now. Pretty funny!

As a metalhead and a history buff, I love the Sabaton mention. Night Witches is pretty killer too.

Same, it’s pretty much on repeat. My fiancee knows when I’m about to play it because I get this look on my face like some shits about to go down.

@mnben87 I feel the same way about marc okubo (I think that’s how you spell it?) From veil of maya. I learn a riff, get it up to what I think the tempo it’s played at, and then try to play along with the track and I’m left in the dust. It’s like a fucking guitar solo for 3 minutes straight every song. He’s insane.

Forget the edgy lyrics

More tunez

Here’s a blast from the past (pop punk/post hardcore)

Fucking dammit. RIM Alexi Laiho. CoB is the band that showed me death metal and screaming can be musical.

Well shit… He was 41

On the younger side to pass away. May he rest in piece

Sounded like he had some health issues. Makes sense given that he shut down CoB while they were still doing really well.

Credit to @marine77 for mentioning these guys… They’re stupendous

Riffy and catchy.

Check out Exit Wounds. Pronounced Dead. Jungle Rot / Circle of Death
