I'm not saying anything bad about anyone's selections (been thinking about this since the ideas started rolling in), it makes me shake my head at what's categorized as hard rock/heavy metal these days. whiney, singers with no real talent. Just because a band uses distortion, and a "heavy" riff, does Not make it metal. I even tried to watch headbangers ball on mt2 once and i had to laugh at the garbage they put on there... makes me sad.

Whew finally gotten through all these recommendations :D and there are a lot so that’s why this post is probably going to be quite long. So be prepared :P .

First of all sorry for posting in the wrong thread :P . Well now that this is done on to the real post :D .

Rhapsody is a good example...

Thx for clearing up what neo-classical metal is. Metal gets really confusing after a while with all its genres and subgenres and it becomes quite difficult to seperate them from each other. I actually already had a bit of neo-classical metal mostly from Malmsteen.

Next folk metal (A must :P )

"Folk Metal"?

Dang....

I'm getting too old for this.....

Donna Jean

Here are a few other bands to get you started (they might be a bit to heavy though :P ): Heidevolk, Korpiklaani, Fjoergyn and Finntroll

I'm not saying anything bad about anyone's selections (been thinking about this since the ideas started rolling in), it makes me shake my head at what's categorized as hard rock/heavy metal these days. whiney, singers with no real talent. Just because a band uses distortion, and a "heavy" riff, does Not make it metal. I even tried to watch headbangers ball on mt2 once and i had to laugh at the garbage they put on there... makes me sad.

I know it’s kind of annoying that these bands get more attention than really great bands who have the possibility to make it big (at least metal big :lol: ). And it’s even more annoying that these singers ruin most of the songs. That’s why I’m sticking to the older stuff or really good new stuff :P . Another thing that is happening to metal is the excessive use of breakdowns, which is awful (my opinion :P ).

But I think it’s for the best that there is variation, since it would be kind of a boring world if everything and everyone was the same. But hopefully they will learn out of their mistakes :lol: .

And a few of my own recommendations, since I shouldn't be the only one discovering new music. I'll try to put them in order of accessibility (from soft to hard)and I'll try to sort them by genre. Sorry for the following (hopefully not to many :D ) mistakes.

(Hard) Rock: Red, Black label society, puddle of mud, Therapy

Heavy metal: Wolf, Iron maiden (obvious), Macbeth, Dio, King diamond, Mercyfull fate, Manowar, Motorhead

Power metal: Sabaton, Derdian, Heavenly, Nightwish, Nocturnal Rites, Galloglas, Alestorm

Progressive/Experimental metal: Pain of salvation, Dream theater, Opeth (progressive death), Indukti, In vain, Ghost brigade, Jupiter society, Sigh

Thrash Metal: Witchaven, Destroyer 666, Sacrilege, Sacred Reich, Noneuclid, Nevermore, Testament, Anvil, Machine head

Viking/Folk/Celtic metal: Equilibrium, Bathory, Windir, Primordial, Falkenbach

Melodic death metal: Insomnium, Dark tranquility, Quo Vadis, In flames, Wintersun, Be 'lakor, Hypocrisy, Necorphobic

Doom metal: Katatonia, Novembers Doom, Before the rain, Rigor sardonicous,Swallow the sun, The lamp of thoth, Black pyramid, Mournful Congregation

(Melodic) Black metal: Marduk, Gorgoroth, Keep of kalessin, Burzum, Goatwhore, Satyricon

Brutal/Technical/Death metal: Aeon, Skinless, Suffocation, Cannibal corpse, Necrophagist, Bloodbath, Braindrill, Brutality, Bright Ophidia, Cadaveryne, The faceless, Capharnaum, Cenothap, Carnophage, Cryptopsy, Death, Daath, Demilich,Diabolic, Kataklysm, Krisiun, Sacrilege, Malevolent Creation

Grindcore: Man must die, Misery index

Goregrind: Last days of humanity, Amputated genitals (It's really a band name sorry about that :P ), Circle of dead children

Drone: Boris with Merzbow (albums: Drone-evil, Absolutego, Flood,...)

Please keep posting bands :P since i've got a lot of time on my hands for the moment (summer vacation :D ).

Btw don't forget to comment on my (excessive) list of recommendations and sorry for the long post :P .

One of my favourite bands ever is Oceansize (they have a song called One Out of nOne, imagine that) and while they are not pure metal, they exhibit metallic properties, while overlapping with progressive rock and post-rock. They're a bit like Tool (wait, seriously, has no one in here even mentioned Tool yet?), and if you like them you might also try Porcupine Tree and Red Sparowes.

Yeah but what's more annoying are the copious amounts of "labels" to go over something that should just be classified as metal. Screamo, emo, viking core, metal core etc its all moot cause it's all just music imo.

Well, I see someone included industrial - if you are going to include industrial, don't forget about Ministry and Lard...

TSO is awesome! and if you do like them, you should try the creative genius behind TSO Jon Oliva's Pain, and Savatage.

Melanie Dawn

LOVE Savatage! I'll have to check out Pain.

Also, I urge anyone to go see TSO if they come to your town. Best concert I've ever been to!

There are indeed a lot of differnet genres an sub-gernes in metal, which is often annoying but it’s also quite handy. Like when you’re talking to someone about metal it’s really easy to describe a bands by its genre. Of course the other person has to be aware of all the different genres, which is often not the easiest thing. But I agree that it gets really confusing after a while, which is the downside of labeling music. The positive side is that when you are able to recognize the different genres ( after an excessive amount of listening :P ), it’s really easy to talk about it and sort your music.

Btw does anyone know some good instrumental bands like John 5

Thx in advance :D

I found their stuff on Youtube, but darned if I can find anything on Frostwire. The only thing that comes up is T-Pain (even when I type out the full name).

That is one awesome band, though.

I didn't read every response to your post, so I might be repeating some that others have already suggested. Anyway, here's a few that come to mind at the moment that aren't widely known.

Hero/Adventure metal: Amon Amarth, Van Canto and Týr

Black Metal: Dimmu Borgir and Psyclon Nine. Though P9 has a very dominant industrial twist to it. I like it, but it's not for everyone.

      Over here muttering about "a new Jim Crow against a persecuted minority."    
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Rants are not a problem.  My favorite hobby! :)   What's out there is bad enough that I wonder why some people feel they need to embellish it.  Be alert.   Some of this will need to be fought in court if they try to implement it. If people are out to get me, paranoia is justified.  And this may not be the only document.   Abby
    • Ivy
      Not in so many words, therefore it's not there at all.  Excuse my paranoia. And the states passing laws against us are nothing to worry about either. Having to change my gender back to male (like in Florida) is reasonable.  I should just accept it, I mean I was born with a dk.  So that "F" is lie, and a fraud.  My delusions need to be dealt with for my own good.   I'm just frustrated these days.  Just a bit of a rant.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      You probably remember the Target PR fiasco.  I remember reading an account from a woman who shopped there.  She went into a stall and did her business, and someone came into the bathroom and began swinging stall doors open, and when she came to her stall, the woman peeked at her through the crack. "What are you doing?" "Checking for perverts." The writer was so stunned by the absurdity that she finished up ASAP and got out of there, while the other woman entered a stall and locked it, made sure it was locked, and locked it again.

      Been a good day.Cleaned my closet of clothes that I do not wear anymore and do not fit me.It looks better now.Came down to my newest property beside mine,owner passed and I inherited it.There was a double wide there that was removed,it was in bad shape.It is the shop part I am keeping which I got the tools,shop equipment,benches,hoists and shelving too.

      Nothing about eradicating TG folk. 
    • Ivy
      If 9 out of 10 parts are ok, that doesn't mean I need to accept the bad parts (that are aimed directly at me).  That seems suicidal.
    • Ivy
      True, most of it has nothing to do directly with us.  It's the parts that do that are the problem.   I see the  few problematic statements as being a big problem.  Just because a lot of it may be okay, doesn't change that. Even supposing the rest of it might be good for the country, it doesn't help me if I'm being "eradicated".  I suppose I should be good with that, because it's for the "greater good".  If me being gone would please a number of people, then it's my civic duty to disappear, and vote to implement that.
    • Ivy
      Yeah.  There are already laws against assault.  I don't think the overwhelming majority of trans women have any desire to harass cis women.  Speaking for myself, if I go into a women's washroom, it's because my eyeballs are already floating - not for kicks.  And I worry about getting clocked and assaulted by some guy being a "hero."
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Only three, maybe four, sections even mention transgender.  Most is a conservative agenda I have no problem with.   In the sections that mention transgender, there are very few lines.  Those lines ARE problematic, in every case. Unequivocally.  I can't see some of them standing up in court.  In one case a recommended policy goes against a court decision, which strongly suggests the implementation of that policy would be stopped in court.    Anyone maintaining that this is written simply to support Trump, to support him becoming a dictator, to crush transgender people is feeding you a line.  Nor is it an attempt to erase transgender people.   People will have to decide if the overall goals are worth the few problematic statements.  Overall, I support it.  Of course, I have some reservations.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      It is unfamiliar, therefore threatening.   For 90% or so of the population, gender id can be simply and quickly determined by a quick anatomical observation.  They have no understanding and cannot imagine what it would mean to have a body different from the id.  It is unimaginable.  Therefore, wrong.   So there is this strong headwind.   I haven't entered this discussion, but here is a script: A: I can't imagine what it must be to have TG. B: You're a man, right? A: Well, of course. "amused" B: Imagine you were required by law and custom to wear women's clothing all the time. A: It wouldn't happen. B: Okay, but for the sake of the argument... A: That would be disgusting.  I would be very uncomfortable. B: You have it.  That is what TG people go through all the time. 24-7-365. A: Really? B: And then they are told they are perverts for having those feelings.  The same you just described. A: I see. B: And someone comes along and tells you you need conversion therapy so you will be comfortable wearing women's clothing all the time. A: I think I would break his nose. B: You understand transgender folk better than you think.

      I have found some people correlate TG = child predator ... just as some have correlated homosexual = child predator...    I am baffled by the TG = unsafe connection ... my wife tends to think this way, that this is all about sexual deviancy ... I try to ask how my preference for wearing frilly socks with embroidered flowers and a comfortable camisole under my lavender T-shirts is sexually deviant (or sexual anything) but I don't get very far... 
    • EasyE
      Best wishes to you as you take this step ... many blessings to you!

      Not sure.  The perp is a minor.  The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration.  See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law.  Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail.    Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls.  He, overwhelming her with height and weight,  assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there.   Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom.  Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy.  TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy.

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.
