Slaytanic Wehrmacht Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Testament and Kreator have released new albums in the last little while. Testament's is called Dark Roots Of Earth and it is ****ing amazing. Kreator's album, Phantom Antichrist, has been on loop on my Winamp since it was released. Down's new EP will be out in September and Katatonia's new one is scheduled for release later this month. Shred on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Ambien Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I listen to Industrial Metal far more than any other type of metal but I have a likening to Symphonic, Power, Progressive, Gothic, and plain old heavy/thrash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAST isn't really "metal" but it is a very eclectic style that's more like progressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An ex of mine was all about VAST.. a bit soft for my tastes (more akin to Porcupine Tree) but certainly not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have friends on both sides (that only listen to the older stuff or only listen to the last 2 albums.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have friends on both sides (that only listen to the older stuff or only listen to the last 2 albums.) Truthfully I liked Nightwish until Tarja left.. not to be hung up on one person but she had an enormous impact on Nightwish's sound, despite how much I tend to try and ignore vocals. I still listen to Nightwish frequently but almost exclusively with Tarja's vocals and not the other lady who sings now in her place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still listen to Nightwish frequently but almost exclusively with Tarja's vocals and not the other lady who sings now in her place. totally agree that it's a different sound without Tarja. But that's actually what I like... some days I feel more like listening to "Nemo" or "Over the Hills" while others it's a "Meadows of Heaven" or "I want my tears back" day. since we are on the topic of "chick metal" bands (my general category for all styles of metal with a female lead singer) ever listen to these bands; (if you have, thoughts?) Within Temptation Elis Angtoria Echos of Eternity Sirenia Drain STH Beautiful Sin I left Lacuna Coil off the list since you already listed them... and I've seen them live (they are impressive to hear live!!!)

Slaytanic Wehrmacht Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 list off some of your favorites... I'm always looking for "new" bands to get into While the band is hardly "new" I have been listening a lot lately to a Swiss industrial black metal band called Samael....if you haven't heard them, I would recommend you start with the 2004 release "Reign Of Light". Another band I'm really into from that area...Poland actually...is the blackened death metal band Behemoth...their new album is in the works and is scheduled for release mid 2013. As far as my genre of choice...it's a veritable smorgasbord of metal...I can listen to 1349 for an album or two then switch to Testament or Overkill...then it's on to Cannibal Corpse, Deicide, Obituary, Death (RIP Chuck Schuldiner)......and then I can get just plain silly...Dismembered Fetus, Goatwhore, Gorgoroth.... Bottom line though, I lean more heavily towards Thrash...if only because I can understand a lot more of the lyrics. Shred on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
