HI to all just thought i would start a metal thread to see who likes what and why.hopefully people will be able to post and chat about bands some guys have never heard of.ok i will start the thread best album for me has to be
IRON MAIDEN= POWERSLAVE
every track on that cd is awesome,i started to listen to these guys when i was 10 and they are still going pure class MAIDEN
6061
whatever happened to MMC? They were once the next big thing?
[i]chat about bands some guys have never heard of[/i]
iron maiden?
Janes Addiction was the closest I ever got to metal...
Cathedral:
groovey doom
just Doom
M6 into some nice alu does it for moi.
It's all about Steel, it's real you know.
But seriously Slayer are an awesome metal band and Cult is just about the angriest song ever.
Threads have to be metal, I find I'm too ham-fisted for plastic threads.
Helloween keeper of the keys part 2
quality album. Maiden rock, Metal is awesome.... Trance and Hard house are way better though 😉
rocket dog i did not mean maiden,everybody heard of them you tool
FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH
Victorian grindcore via the men that will not be blamed for nothing:
stephenson a song about the 3 great victorians called stephenson, historically correct and yet so mental:

the most metal band EVER though are without doubt the british band Bolt thrower
something a bit more niche
optimum wound profile
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwVCgDYgWTk
extreme noise terror and the KLF (Live at the brits causing chaos)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CDButf0go8
^ boltthrower. Not heard of them since I accidentally taped a session off John Peel. What a load of old shite. Same for GD & Napalm Jeff.
THE CULT LOVE CD
Boltthrower seem to have improved since I saw them at uni ~1990. What album should I get?
for those once loyal is rather good BT album.
love- was the cult's last good goth album before they became a bog standard rock band 😉
a bit of dirty old industrial/metal
Pitchshifter- deconstruction
Godflesh- streetcleaner
and a bit of blackmetal: Darkthrone doing a cover of the banshees "love in a void" 😆
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ytsf9baNU-s
Mastodon - Cut You Up With a Linoleum Knife (youtube)
😆
high on fire are bloomin good even if they do sound a bit "motorhead"
Voivod- Tribal convictions
and for any oldskool thrash heads out there
Sacred reich- surf nicaragua
Not sure exactly what I listen to could be classed as metal, quite a broad range though:
[url=
Factory - Demanufacture[/url]
[url=
Head - Davidian[/url]
[url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccBzCxE2vpY&feature=related ]Slapshock - Carino Brutal[/url]
[url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsHeFLL3zGk&feature=fvst ]Dethklok - Hatredy[/url]
[url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpdUVMddEd8 ]Mnemic - Deathbox[/url]
[url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qc98u-eGzlc&feature=related ]Meshuggah - Bleed[/url]
[url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36PSBsiSszw&feature=related ]Otep - Battle Ready[/url]
[url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XP_pH6CBZYg ]Pain - Im Going In[/url]
Thats the kind of stuff floating around in my iTunes library. Also other stuff by the likes of Marilyn Manson, 36 Crazyfists and Killswitch Engage. I class it all as metal, but then Im not one for genre arguing anyway...if its harder than rock stuff, doesnt have some 15 year old screaming while wearing his sisters jeans* then its metal in my book 😆
*then again I dont mind a little screamo/emo now and then
TAZZYMTB you are the metal man
Ah, back in the day I used to listen to bands like:
Sepultura
Nuclear Assault
Metallica (before they started releasing crap)
Testament
Pantera
Rolllins Band
Danzig
Rainbow's Rising and Onstage are the two finest albums ever made
Sabbath's Heaven and Hell isn't far behind though.
OK, it's gonna be an unpopular choice, but I'm getting a lot of kicks from this at the moment:

Also:
[url=
I'm one of the minority of old [url=
Wizard [/url]fans who loved Witchcult Today.
First four [url=
[/url]albums are frigging awesome.
Japanese band [url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeSwal4jqyk ]Boris[/url] are great as are Spanish band [url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbXYec6wy9I&feature=related ]Orthodox[/url].
Do [url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89h-X-tZa_w ]High on Fire[/url] count as metal? Like them. Sendelica and [url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qo8HkvBOwFk&feature=related ]the Heads [/url]too.
[url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgIZAu8TwgU ]Om[/url] can do wrong by me either.
Generals gathered in their masses,
just like witches at black masses.
Evil minds that plot destruction,
sorcerers of death's construction.
In the fields the bodies burning,
as the war machine keeps turning.
Death and hatred to mankind,
poisoning their brainwashed minds.
Oh lord, yeah!
[I've been drinking]
Hurrah Torpedo!!!!

I have Bruce Dickinsons autograph from when he was in Samson, pre. Iron Maiden (it's on the bottom of a Samson group picture, all the other band members have signed it aswell). Will it be worth anything?.
I'm also partial to a bit of this thrash/death
and Kyuss (brilliant until they turned in queens of the stone age and became corporate poo)
TAZZYMTB you are the metal man
no, but I do have a lot of piercings if that counts? (I'm an old goth really, just liked a bit of rawk now and then)
Mental for like!
I also have close up photo pics (taken by my older sister) of Michael Schenker (black leathers, flying V) and Richie Blackmore (I think that's who it is).
not sure what this classifies as other than ****in ace
Tool- Vicarious
tazzymtb that kyuss is awesome man love that
they did a couple of fantastic albums that you can get cheap from amazon and the like these days
In the spirit of the OP, is it just me that thinks Iron Maiden: Iron Maiden is one of the most underrated albums ever?
Seventh Son was their finest moment though.
<pops head round door>
Electro Hippies
<gets coat>
killers was great, iron maiden was a classic, for me stranger in strange land was my favorite.
I'm really liking October file at the moment They sound a lot like killing joke
DavidB- "am i punk yet" was ace
mudvayne
October file love that your taste in music is awesome man
Static-x
UK apple core at its best ACID REIGN-HUMANOIA these and lawnmower deth were ****in fantastic live, stagedivearama 😀
and nuclear assault with the bouncing smiley
[i]rocket dog i did not mean maiden,everybody heard of them you tool [/i]
then why give them as an example after asking for bands no one has heard of, better check your own tool tray before posting 🙄
and Tool are quite a good band 🙂
going through my record collection now
Mordred - the first metal band to use a scratch dj
and anthrax with public enemy
haha ok dude nice one yes will have a look at tool 😆
for a bit of old skool english trash i quite like listening to sabbat, only did 2 albums that i know of and i still enjoy them whilst at the gym.
after sabbat martyn formed skyclad and has fairly recently left them to reform sabbat and the clan destined who have been on tour recently
will **** off now and let others play nighty night 😀
I love darkthrone and have all their albums. But for some old school metal try:
[url=
The Gates[/url] or [url=
alternatively [url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6349Q-67eA&feature=related ]Anaal Nathrakh[/url]
As for Bolthrower the IVth Crusade is the best album especially the track 'Spearhead'
Rammstein and Soulfly float my particular oceon going vehicle.
fudge tunnel- hate songs in E minor is a classic
I'm loving Sabaton.
Saw them at Bloodstock last year, then at hammerfest and Sonisphere this year.
New album just out: Coat of Arms.
Uprising
and from the last album:
40:1
lol tazzymtb i still have that acid reign vid from raw power on vhs somewhere:)
dont forget [url=
lawnmower deth in action [url=
on the telephone[/url]
not thrash but reminds me of that [url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dl5yJoeFLiQ ]era[/url]
[url=
Gotta love the 'corpse.
Not listened to much new metal recently, 5fdp are rather good though...mid to late nineties death metal time warp here.
SKYCLAD- the originators of folk/pagan metal
I'm quite liking Tarot at the moment
Good call on the Tarot, i was hoping that Bloodstock would book them for their first UK date at some point, folk have been calling for them for the last couple of years.
Have you hear Marcos work with Delain on their last couple of Albums? like
[url=
the Storm[/url]
pedalhead:
Opeth
Absolutely!
They've got a very wide variety, but [url=
one[/url] always goes down well as an introduction to the band
