Give me some Metal.

[IcedOpethBlind]

I'm looking for suggestions on some metal bands to check out.

To get a since of my taste, here are a few current favorites: Opeth, Lamb of God, Watch Them Die, Amon Amarth, Meshuggah, Origin

[Jra1]

Children of Bodom. but you probably know them
Sonata Arctica
im not a big metal fan really... so those'll be my 2 for input

[elemenohpe]

stampin' ground, dark tranquility, devildriver (suprisingly good considering their singer used to be in coal chamber), GWAR (their new stuff may not sound like the stuff above but their new record is really good, you may like it), nile, evergrey, hatesphere, into the moat, between the buried and me, mastodon, the red chord, machine head (ignore anything from the albums the burning red and supercharger), the black dahlia murder, bloodbath, mnemic (like fear factory), old soilwork, old in flames, strapping young lad (you'll really dig them), trivium, 3 inches of blood, glass casket, locus factor, the number 12 looks like you (metal-ish)

[bopst]

Godflesh (http://www.godflesh.com/), Carcass (http://tatooine.fortunecity.com/blish/125/carcass.html), Jesus Lizard (http://members.tripod.com/~jesuslizard/)
Municipal Waste (http://www.earache.com/bands/municipal_waste/navigation/biography.html)

[bopst]

Mastodon (http://shop.relapse.com/artist/artist.aspx?ArtistID=10063)
Loincloth (http://members.aol.com/loinsofmetal/)

That Loincloth shit is amazing....

[elemenohpe]

the acacia strain. i forgot about that one before.

[Andy]

Killswitch Engage, Mastodon, and of course old Metallica.

[GoodCoreRecords]

you should check out about 95% of the bands that call themselves hardcore because they're really metal.

oh and old metallica fucking rules.

[Hilikus]

Any In Flames from before their new album
Soil Work
Children Of Bodom

[elemenohpe]

Any In Flames from before their new album
Soil Work
Children Of Bodom

any in flames before in route to remain.

get colony, whoracle, or lunar strain. they're awesome. clayman is a descent.

[AShannon04]

Haha, their Sting cover kicked ass

[elemenohpe]

Someone has to say it: MOTHERFUCKIN' SLAYER....

i was going to but i figured it kind of went without saying.

i said nile instead... that's pretty damn close to slayer musically.

Haha, their Sting cover kicked ass

it was a police cover.

but john mayer does it better.

i love machine head though, they're my fav metal band but those two albums are just shameful.

[IcedOpethBlind]

thanks bopst and kahli.

all other bands that have been suggested ive known for awhile or just thought they went without saying (i.e. metallica(killem all, RTL, MoP, AJFA), slayer, any thrash metalhead should know these guys well).

anywho, thanks.

[Kid Kilowatt]
