No need, it's not like someone can spoil a band for someone else wink.gif

I don't listen to Metal that much I guess, but probably my favorite band is Metallica, and I guess one could consider that Metal right?

Another favorite genre of mine is Goth Rock, as in Evanescence, Within Temptation, Nightwish and the likes. I'm not sure if you might consider that a form of Metal?

I do usually like other metal tracks when a friend or co worker puts them on, but I personally tended to play things like punk, and hardrock and the likes lately, you know the softer stuff smile.gif

I used to listen to a lot of metal but I've moved more towards rock and atmospheric. It all depends on where you draw the line though.

Having said that my favourite band is In Flames who are definatly metal.

At the moment I'm listening to a lot of 'Doom Metal' which has far more in common with atmospheric than traditional metal, bands like Canaan or Neronoia are my favourite in that line.

I'm a fan of a few different metal bands.

One of my favourites since I discovered them is A Dark Halo. Pretty much unheard of, but I really enjoy their music. Every time I meantion the name to someone, the reply is "who?"

You can listen to some of their songs on their Myspace page http://www.myspace.com/adarkhalo . Not sure if it will appeal to anyone else though.

Alestorm are from my neck of the woods. If you ever get the chance to see them live leap at it, they were supporting Turisas over here and were really brilliant. Not sure I'd buy their album but I'd certainly go to their next gig.

Oh I love Alestorm! Move over Jimmy Buffet. What more could a parrot-head who teethed on Sabbath ask for? And I continue to watch Ozzy no matter what he's up to next.

I do likes me my metal. I have even developed an interest in vinyl and got a vinyl player for Christmas so that I could finally buy metal music that is only available on vinyl. I'm definitely enjoying the new experience! A lot of the bands I listen to like to release exclusive EPs on vinyl. The next vinyl I intend to own is the latest EP by Wolves In The Throne Room, I think it's called "Malevolent Grain".

I like a lot of different kinds of metal bands that run the gamut from traditional bands like Judas Priest, Heaven and Hell (basically Black Sabbath with Dio singing), Dio, and Pharaoh, to black metal bands like Wolves In The Throne Room, Immortal, Cobalt, and Celtic Frost.

I would say my favourite subgenres of metal would be melodic death metal (In Flames, Insomnium, Dark Tranquility), post metal (Isis, Neurosis, Cult of Luna), and doom metal (Solitude Aeturnus, Candlemass, Pale Divine, The Obsessed).

So yea, I'm definitely down for some metal discussions (if I stick around).

I bought the new Lamb of God album Wrath recently. I love it, but at the same time, there aren't too many 'memorable' songs. Their last few albums have had really catchy riffs and cool hooks, but this one is more like their earlier stuff.

Also looking forward to new Mastodon album next week. (Thank you MM for showing me this band) Can't beat a concept album about czarist Russia.

O wouldn't presume to know much, if anything, about the seemingly endless variations of Metal there are today, but I've alsways simply called it heavy metal. smile.gif

I remember reading an article where one of the band members described the concept of the album and all I could think about was how much weed they must've smoked to come up with such an odd concept. I nearly get lost trying to comprehend it. Still looking forward to hearing it, from what I understand the clean vocals have improved since the last album.

As for my recent listening, I've basically been stuck listening to the same 8 albums since that's all I brought home with me to my parents' place. The rest of my collection is back in Toronto and I'm starting to miss the variety I had. At least I'm giving the newer Burst CD the amount of listens it deserves. Such a good album...

Lamb of God has got a bit too much mainstream for my taste. Iīm goin to buy Raubtier's new (and first) album Det finns bara krig.

Busting out a classic right now: Defenders Of The Faith by Judas Priest. Epic album I must say with great songs like "The Sentinel", "Rock Hard, Ride Free", and "Some Heads Are Gonna Roll". Rockin' out as we speak!

My favourite metal band is Rage Against the Machine (at least I think they're metal-iTunes says it is), even if they do seem to hate everything.
