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.

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.

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me

      Hey, everyone. my life is going down the tubes. at least I think. So, today. A customer called about his car, I told him that the oil change was done. The parts to fix the check engine light are ordered. He can come and get it. For the weekend if he wants. Customer says I didn't want an oil change. it was check the engine light and check for an oil leak. Checking the work order says oil change. The boss wrote the vehicle up. checking with the customer on services wanted.   Being that I wrote down the appointment in the book. and clearly states oil leak. She is complaining because she can't read my small ish writing. It seems she read oil and assumed it as an oil change. It seems like she is blaming me.  She wound up going home because she was too upset. She is stressing about an eye problem she has, she has to get eye surgery it seems she has a tear in her eye.    I feel that I am short for this job. because of the BS they are blaming me on. Plus I am still upset about the trust issue. If either one of the bosses start their Shite tomorrow. I am walking out.

      "I love you so much,"  Lois said.  They met in the driveway. "I could not live without you." "Neither could I." "What are we going to do?" "Find another counselor?" "No. I think we need to solve this ourselves." "Do you think we can?" "I don't know.  But what I know is that I don't want to go through that again.  I think we have to hope we can find a solution." "Otherwise, despair." "Yeah.   Truce?" "Okay,  truce." And they hugged.   "When we know what we want we can figure out how to get there."   That began six years of angry battles, with Odie insisted he could dress as he pleased and Lois insisting it did not please her at all.  He told her she was not going to control him and she replied that she still had rights as a wife to a husband. Neither was willing to give in, neither was willing to quit, and their heated arguments ended in hugs and more.   They went to a Crossdressers' Club, where they hoped to meet other couples with the same problems, the same conflicts, and the same answers, if anyone had any.  It took them four tries before they settled on a group that they were both willing to participate in.  This was four couples their own age, each with a cross dressing husband and a wife who was dealing with it.  They met monthly.  It was led by a 'mediator' who wanted people to express how they felt about the situation.  Odie and Lois, as newcomers, got the floor, and the meeting was finally dismissed at 1:30 in the morning - it was supposed to be over at 10 - and everyone knew how they felt about the situation.   There was silence in the car on the way home.   "We aren't the only ones dealing with this." Odie finally said.   "Who would have thought that?  You are right."   "Somebody out there has a solution." "I hope you are right."   "I hope in hope, not in despair."   "That's my Odie."

      The counseling session was heated, if you could call it a counseling session.  Sometimes Lois felt he was on Odie's side, and sometimes on hers.  When he was on her side, Odie got defensive. She found herself being defensive when it seemed they were ganging up on each other.   "This is not working," Lois said angrily, and walked out.  "Never again. I want my husband back. Dr. Smith you are complicit in this."   "What?" said Odie.   The counselor looked at him.  "You will have to learn some listening skills."   "That is it? Listening skills?  You just destroyed my marriage, and you told me I need to learn listening skills?"   Dr. Smith said calmly,"I think you both need to cool off."   Odie looked at him and walked out, saying "And you call yourself a counselor."   "Wait a minute."   "No."

      I have read some of it, mostly in areas specifically targeted at the LGBTQ+ peoples.   You also have to take into account what and who is behind the words, not just the words themselves. Together that creates context, right? Let's take some examples, under the Department of Health & Human Services section:   "Radical actors inside and outside government are promoting harmful identity politics that replaces biological sex with subjective notions of “gender identity” and bases a person’s worth on his or her race, sex, or other identities. This destructive dogma, under the guise of “equity,” threatens American’s fundamental liberties as well as the health and well-being of children and adults alike."   or   "Families comprised of a married mother, father, and their children are the foundation of a well-ordered nation and healthy society. Unfortunately, family policies and programs under President Biden’s HHS are fraught with agenda items focusing on “LGBTQ+ equity,” subsidizing single-motherhood, disincentivizing work, and penalizing marriage. These policies should be repealed and replaced by policies that support the formation of stable, married, nuclear families."   From a wording perspective, who doesn't want to protect the health and well-being of Americans or think that families aren't good for America? But let's take a look at the author, Roger Severino. He's well-quoted to be against LGBTQ+ anything, has standard christian nationalist views, supports conversion therapy, etc.   So when he uses words like "threatens the health and well-being of children and adults alike" it's not about actual health, it's about enforcing cis-gendered ideology because he (and the rest of the Heritage Foundation) believe LGBTQ+ people and communities are harmful. Or when he invokes the family through the lens of, let's just say dog whistles including the "penalization of marriage" (how and where?!), he idealizes families involving marriage of a "biological male to a biological female" and associates LGBTQ+ family equity as something unhealthy.   Who are the radical actors? Who is telling people to be trans, gay, or queer in general? No one. The idea that there can be any sort of equity between LGBTQ+ people and "normal" cis people is abhorrent to the author, so the loaded language of radical/destructive/guise/threaten are used. Families that he believes are "good" are stable/well-ordered/healthy, specifically married/nuclear ones.   Start looking into intersectionality of oppression of non-privileged groups and how that affects the concept of the family and you will understand that these platitudes are thinly veiled wrappers for christian nationalist ideology.   What's wrong with equity for queer families, to allow them full rights as parents, who are bringing up smart and able children? Or single mothers who are working three jobs to get food on plates?

      Well yesterday didn't work like I wanted to. I met a guy and started talking and he was wanting to be in a relationship. I asked my kids on how they thought of me dating a man and they said gross and said no. I guess it's time to look for women. I think that is going to be harder. Oh well I guess.
