Yes. This is not the " good intro for an emo band on myspace" thread.

It's the Heavy music thread.

Get out of here, emo-boy!

Metallica
Slayer
Megadeth
Sabbath
Children of Bodom

BANG YER HEAD TIL IT BLEEDS!!!! WOOOO!!
HEAVY ****ING METAL!!!

yeah, now were're talking.... :)

In Flames (pre 2002)
Dark Tranquility
Dark Lunacy (Devoid album is awesome)
Skyfire (spectral-cursed by belief, awesome tune)
Apocalyptica
At the Gates
Ensifirum (Iron album)

....the list could go on and on.....

when I was younger, sepultura, slayer, metallica, carcass, morbid angel, etc,
still good, just don't listen too too often anymore.

I've been on a goth metal kick. Nightwish and Tristania are good. I think my new nickname at work is Mistress Lauren.

Dope is fun for easy listening.

AC/DC
Wolfmother
Led Zepplin

I don't listen to much heavy stuff, but I love Opeth and have all of their albums/DVD. I also like Mastodon's Leviathon, Metallica's first three, and early Morbid Angel. (Immortal! \M/ :mad: \M/)

Older heavy stuff like Zeppelin/Hendrix/etc. gets a nod, of course...it's what I grew up on. Not sure that's what the OP meant, however...

Nightwish is pretty good. They aren't metal enough for this thread IMO, but I am on a huge Lacuna Coil kick.

Yes. This is not the " good intro for an emo band on myspace" thread.

It's the Heavy music thread.
Which should be in the 'Books, Movies, Music' forum not Foo.


MODS!

i dont listen to too much heavy stuff, but i did recently get turned on to this band called The Sword

How about Harry Chapin's 20,000 pounds of bananas? Not many songs heavier than that. :p

Good stuff. Keep em comin.
Forgot about Killswitch engage. Awesome band.
And didn't mention old Metallica or Megadeth becasue they are basically a given. I could never get tired of pre Black album Metallica.

Yes. This is not the " good intro for an emo band on myspace" thread.

It's the Heavy music thread.

Yes its heavy music, but not heavy black death metal as alot of people have listed.

I like Megadeth, Metallica, Rammstien, Iron Maiden, Guns and/or Roses, Motley Crue, and many others which you may or may not consider heavy.

Trivium
Atreyu
Ill Nino
Bullet for my Valentine
Misery signals

saw atreyu at taste of chaos and story of the year, as i lay dying, and funeral for a freind.
and bullet at a local show, i was so close that i shook his hand when he was playing. both were amazing

saw underoath at bamboozle, again they were amazing cant wait for their new cd. along with alexisonfire, fall of troy, emanuel, and senses fail.

avenged sevenfold gotta love them(saw em at warped tour two years ago)

trivium is amazing, i want to see them soo bad. same with killswitch

from first to last is really good too.

Yeah , Trivium is pretty good. I have a feeling they have yet to truly "deliver". We'll see...

Judas Priest just killed the VH1 Rock Honors.:beer: Everyone else was lame, except maybe Foo Fighters...

Priest...best ghey, er heavy band to wear tons of leather,ever!:D

Why do you guys like heavy metal? Do you live in Detroit or San Antonio??? Please, clue me in. Is it a cyclist thing or just a percentage thing? I saw Black Sabbath on their first US tour and was totally unimpressed....I bought a Rick Rubin produced Slayer album, same...

:o

For me, metal is just potentially powerful music. I don't prefer it over other music...in fact, I have more jazz, latin, techno, and MUCH more classical than metal. Nothing substitutes for a heavy Opeth song when I want to hear music that sounds like the earth splitting open, though. :D

Pantera
Metallica
Antrax
Alice in Chains
The first Crue,Too Fast For Love. It went down hill from there.

Living Sacrifice

Metallica:St. Anger, The Frayed Ends of Sanity , One :love: , Fade to Black, Trapped Under Ice, Until It Sleeps :love: etc.

You are the one person that 'got' St. Anger...

Atreyu's pretty good.
Im not a fan of death,thrash, or black metal though>.<

Metal is like a technical downhill. At its rare best it is combination of power,
passion, and precision.

The classical equivalent is Le Sacre du Printemps...this is the music that will pin
you to the wall, b***h slap you, and take your phone number for its little black
book.

A bullet for my Valentine is awesome:D

Anthrax
Six Feet Under
Dimmu Borgir
Pantera
Soulfly
Slayer

And that is only like 1/40th of my metal collection.

Anyone going to the Slayer/Bodom show in Long Beach? It's gonna be awesome!!!

Some of the heaviness I've been rocking to lately:
Symphony X
Sonata Arctica
Tool
Dream Theater
Black Label Society
Nightwish
Megadeth
Pantera
Type O Negative

I can't get into a lot of these newer 'metalcore' or whatever bands...it's fine until the vocals start. OK, enough will probably take issue with the Euro power/prog metal singers that I dig so much...oh well.

You are the one person that 'got' St. Anger...
That album had so much wasted potential, between the horrible production, lack of lead guitar and often crummy lyrics. A lot of the music was pretty good, but they killed it with all the other stuff. Hopefully Rick Rubin will straighten the Metallica ship.

I saw Symphony X last summer on Gigantour, I like them.

Dream Theater kinda bores me though.

Get that Dream Theater crap out of here...Listen to some Rhapsody, or Dragonforce, or classic Malmsteen.

I met Jason Bonham at the grocery yesterday.:beer: He's in town with Foreigner, and I was in front of him buying juice -what are the odds? What a nice guy! Made my week, it did...:D

Megadeth
Metallica
Guns n Roses
Iced Earth
Pantera
some Slayer
Ozzy
Creed
Iron Maiden
Def Leppard
King Diamond

im a big fan of between the buried and me, as i lay dying, all remains, arch enemy, bullet for my valentine, norma jean, dillinger escape plan, unearth, the bled, in flames

but i also like the classics like iron maiden, black sabbath, and metallica

Did no one mention Queensr&#255;che?

Rage For Order
The Warning
Operation: Mindcrime

Also Black Sabbath's Heaven and Hell with Ronnie James Dio. One of the last concerts I attended was Dio's tour for Last In Line. Awesome pryrotechnics, lighting, laser show, with a huge blacklighted multi-Egyptian-themed mural onstage behind the band. Of course they played all of the hits from Heaven and Hell, with Vivian Campbell doing the Tony Iommi thang to absolute perfection.

Has anyone ever heard of dragonforce?

Death
Cynic
Atheist
Tool
Queensryche

Carcass was cool too.

You are the one person that 'got' St. Anger...

I did too :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :)

And Bullet? Come on. Neither Matt can play for ****, or sing, as his bass is recorded so quietly it seems Jay's principle reason for being is to get underage girls drunk... Yes, I know the band. I tried, really I did, to like them. But no.

"'Tallica gives you heavy, baby," *picks up his Explorer, jacks in and plays Sad But True*

hmm... I dabble in extreme metal

Opeth
Agalloch
Primordial
Ulver
Arcturus
Orphaned Land
Vintersorg

in that order I guess.

Most of my collection is 70's prog. Gentle Giant and Van Der Graaf Generator being favs.

Metallica
Megadeth
Pantera
Iron Maiden
Judas Priest (especially the Ripper years)
Slayer
Ozzy
Motley Crue
Helmet

Those are the ones I listened to most in high school and college.

In more recent years I have picked up
Iced Earth
Voivod
Killswitch Engage
Rammstein
Avenged Sevenfold
Sevendust

The new Lamb of God is awesome -- reminiscent of Pantera. For those that like metalcore check out Maroon and Burn in Silence. Both are really good (think Killswitch or Unearth, maybe a little In Flames) and haven't gotten much attention. Oh, and the new Mastodon is so good. That band is ****ing amazing.
