Artists that are impossible to discuss on /metal/
-Meshuggah
-Opeth
-All atmospheric black and sludge metal
-Mgla
-Deathspell Omega
-Paradise Lost
-Vektor
-Pantera
-Fear Factory
>>63808147
Sumerian Daemons used to be my shit back in the day.
Their last album kind of sucked though.
>>63807877
>>63808260
I've seen Meshuggah discussed without too much shitposting
So is TBDM actually good band? Which album should I start with?
>>63808260
>>63808133
reminder that anti-paradise lost movement was this asshole's fault
>>63808302
Nocturnal is really good, then they just kind of repeat themselves
>>63808302
>>63808302
they aren't, so dont
>>63808260
add black dahlia murder
>>63808260
Between the Buried and Me
At the Gates
Ghost
Portal
>>63808302
unhallowed and miasma
but seriously they aren't very good
dont listen to anything after that
>>63808346
portal falls under atmoshit
>>63808260
add pissgrave and anything fantano approved as well as WITTR
What did /metal/ think of the latest At The Gates album?
>>63808302
>>63808323
>>63808350
Ritual was surprisingly very good
And Everblack too
Didn't hear the last one
>>63808373
Loved it. There best ever

are there things that make you stay away from albums, absolutely superficial ones?
for me it's cg covers and shit that looks like this >>63808147
>>63808186
>>63808565
this means you care more about covers than the music,
you're an A E S T H E T I C Sfag
>>63808565
No becasue 80% of metal covers are absolute shit
>>63808565
>modern metal album
>described as original
Absolutely dropped, not even kidding, it's always trash like deafheaven and the body
>>63808565
I don't listen to an album if I don't like the cover
Did you know it's possible to enjoy both atmoshit and riffs?
For instance, some of my favourite bands are Emmure, Jesu, Violet Cold and Razor
>>63808619
>>63808554
got you covered slowfag
>>63808619
What do you think of Soilwork and Paradise Lost?
>>63808618
dumb pleb
>>63808589
i like looking at the covers when i listen to music
>>63808449
GOAT. On the same level as their top of the line albums.
What are some astonising metal albums?
What are some more ridiculous weeb-metal like Vermillion-D Alice Syndrome, Imperial Circus Dead Decadence and Black Night Burial?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CLIKYzamqjI
Why was that new Abbath album so shit?
>>63808634
I actually love Soilwork in all their forms (fast as fuck stuff, the alternative stuff etc)
Paradise Lost is pretty good but very cheesy. They seemed to be really popular in Europe (one of my brother's Bulgarian friends used to love them and he's now into trance music)... either way I prefer The Gathering :)
>>63808630
good work :)
>>63808732
i haven't listened to it
>>63808729
I'm talking about things that sound like those.
Does /metal/ like Deftones?
What's your fav album by them?
>>63808732
abbath has been shit since 1999
>>63808757
I don't really think of them as a metal band but I do like them.
Saturday Night Wrist is fucking ace.
>>63808718
Soilwork have generic as shit songwriting and their choruses aren't even catchy, tbdm was never bad it's just that every deathcore band on the face of the earth started ripping them off, this is better than those bands because of chinks magnificient feel of melody
>>63808565
i cant listen to albums with bad album art
>>63808757
who
>>63808260
It's fine because all of those are undeniably garbage anyway. Anyone who likes that sort of crap has no place on /metal/.
>>63808789

>>63808790
Pretty much, vektor and early meshuggah is ok though
>>63808718
I'd like to see Soilwork and TBDM write anything nearly this good desu
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJjHZNX0KOE
>>63808718
Because weebs love weeb aesthetic and that over the top Japanese feeling over top tier high quality songwriting.
But these are still pretty good imo, I know a couple of cool bands worth checking out in this vein:
Yamagen's Devileliet (pretty much japanese Soilwork/Disarmonia ripoff)
Undead Corporation
NOCTURNAL BLOODLUST
Actually fuck it have a song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLzPfXkQJRc
>>63808878

>>63808718
That shit sounds more like Scar Symmetry or Kalmah on drugs
>>63808790
what bands should we like instead
>>63808872
that vocalist is on crack
I genuinely think metalcore is an underrated genre.
Melodic riffs and then sikk breakdowns to go nuts to - what's not to love
>>63808757
ATF, WP and Koi no Yokan are great
Didn't like new songs much
>>63808718
It's like everything bad about modern melodeath made good, you've grown to dislike the aesthetic of modern mdm and dislike these bands too, but it's fine since you've never written a song in your life and can't realise good songwriting
Remember when you couldn't start a single post about melodeath, metalcore or djent without getting shit on and everyone was listening to tech death or black metal?
This general has surely changed
>>63809015
Dude you wouldn't like this shit if it wasn't for all the Japanese weeb shit surrounding it come on
>>63808790
>>63808260
Most of the actual metalheads I've talked to in real life don't seem to like Opeth. Out of everything on that list Opeth is the one that confuses me the most on all the hate they get. It seems to me like they do everything right; Technical riffs, abrasive sound, decent lyrics/vocals, progressive songwriting, diverse material. So trve metalheads, what is your problem with Opeth?
>>63808871
>unironically replying to bait
why would you do this
>>63809015
>it's good because it's over the top
I lie mdm that is more down to earth and without flashiness and core or power influence
>>63809054
Who the fuck cares about weebshit in their metal? It's not even logical, there isn't probably a single person in this thread who listens to metal from japan solely because it's japanese, why would anyone do that? For what purpose?
>>63809042
Yes, it's a lot better now
>>63809071
it's cool to hate opeth
>>63809071
Opeth used to be loved, but the general opinion on them started shiftin after Watershed
>>63809085
You're right, people like k-pop for the musical content
>>63809090
why do you think this is. because metalheads don't like anything from the past 20 years?
>>63809054
Not him but I don't even like weebshit and haven't watched an anime in my life and I still like ICDD, they're one of the most fun things to come out of recent melodeath.
>>63809042
/metal/'s always had a soft-spot for some melodeath bands. arghoslent, intestine baalism and blood stain child have been discussed for years.
>>63809071
>>63809071
I think most people just see a lot of pretentious fedora fans listening to them and then just completely disregard them because of it. Nothing to do with their music.
>>63809078
I like old-school mdm too, solely by how emotional it is, but modern mdm is absolutely garbage at being down to earth
>>63809085
you'd be surprised how many people seek out music just because it's from a certain country
>>63809133
I like both.
>>63809112
OK my mistake

>intestine baalism
>blood stain child

RACIST
4chan in a nutshell
>>63809107
i don't care tbqhwy family, what matters the most is that i enjoy them. like why should i care about some greasy metalheads opinion
>>63809136
Yeah, for some reason I'm really into checking out Russian metalcore and I don't know why but it's really really good.
>>63809131
ah, i see. that's kind of what i thought.
>>63809096
just from reading the wiki article on watershed i can see this might be where they sold out.
>>63809112
I wanted to get into BSC but the synths and female vocals were unbearable
>>63809133
Yeah that's why I only like select few bands like dt, Horrendous, Enshine, In Mourning, Swallow the Sun and Belakor
>>63809179
yes once you stop caring about the opinions of greasy metalheads you will be liberated by son, rock on!!
(not sarcasm)
>>63809107
see
>>63809131
their fanbase is almost on par with Tool's fanbase
>>63809054
there's much more to those bands than image lad
>>63808757
i don't like nu-metal
and yes, deftones are nu-metal whether yuo like it or not
>>63809211
I think Opeth and Porcupine Tree have way less pretentious and annoying fanbases compared to Dream Theater and Tool
>>63809242
For like 2 albums m8
>>63809179
Yeah, fuck 'em
>>63809243
Ok, comparing them to Tool was a stretch. There are still a lot of fedoras nonetheless.
>>63809071
They might get some hate because they are baby's first extreme metal band, but there are way worse popular prog bands
Why you lie to me /metal/? I was told this is good. It sounds like a faggy French version of Cradle of Filth with some industrial thrown in.
>>63809355
>that cover
There's no way this could be good
>>63809355
how could you look at that cover and still trust the anon that reccomended you that?
>>63809071
>>63809131
What's funny is that I saw people hating Opeth while fellating Ne Obliviscaris or Enslaved
Can we all stop and praise this year's AOTY?
>>63809355
this is your own fault
everything here is memes and you know it
>>63809406
early Enslaved is acceptable though
>>63809386
>>63809394
Check out the re-release cover
>>63809414

>>63809439
Becasue they aren't prog at all?
I like both
>tfw /metal/ told me this was a meme

>>63809440

>>63809414

>>63809440

This pleases my inner meme.
>>63809781

I need to start learning how to play so I could start a meme band that does baltic paganism in Japanese and make a concept album about the spirits of the east battling the forest spirits of the baltic for dominion over the spirit world on earth.

Literally. If im noodling in kitchen or at home, I'd rather watch random youtube shit for the illusion of company. If I vidya I want to listen to the game BGM and invest into atmosphere. It appears that every scenario other than me sitting down for the sole purpose of listening to music and doing nothing else just doesn't allow for meal.
Anyone knows the feeling? I basically listen to two songs on my way to work and back and thats it.
>>63809834
it's from basilisk
>>63809834
Basilisk?
>>63809877
i usually listen to metal while im commuting, or working on stuff that doesnt require reading
>>63809877
sorta but not really
i keep meaning to write more metal on cubase but instead i just keep getting sucked in to metal bands on spotify instead
Why don't you all love this?
>>63809877
During drives, walks, runs, pump up if you do sports, while doing work at home, etc
>>63809891
>>63809896
Thanks faggots
>>63809971
>dmsharecuck and moonshake love Wormed
Good reason to avoid them
>>63809877
>sitting down for the sole purpose of listening to music
This is the best way to do it though.
To be fair a lot of my music listening happens while travelling as well. My old job had a longer commute so I could listen to a few albums each day.
>>63809994
That sounds great. The thing is, if I do that, I usually fall asleep on song 3 or 4. Not because of boredom but because of how comfy I get.
>>63809971
its bad. anything past Planisphaerium is shitty.
>>63809971
Why don't you kys
>>63809877
I generally hear albums while laying in my bed before I sleep. Since it's night the city is quieter and there's the added comfy factor.
>>63809971
Because people are too retarded to formulate their own opinions and will automatically hate anything even if it's fantastic just because a tripfag likes it.
dmsharecuck's favorite band is voivod so voivod is now shit
>>63809971

>>63810267
Last thing I heard from them was Katorz which didn't stick with me at all. Lost interest after that.
New EP is sounding pretty good though.
>>63810309
honestly this. what were they thinking with that colouring?
>>63810315
Daily reminder that relationships are gateways to being cucked.
I've fucked women who were married for 20 years. Relationships are pointless, and besides the majority of women my age are single mothers because fuck yeah teen pregnancy.
Just drink a lot of booze and lift weights and maybe, just maybe you'll be a sick enough cunt to die young and satisified
Where does this voivod is dssoshit meme even come from?

Well if you're satisfied living life this way, go ahead. I'm not. I actually want to accomplish things.

Never listened to them actually, which album is the best?
>>63810787
that cover looks more like some tech death or djent than power metal
>>63810795
Monolith, 2nd album. First one is a bit more watered down compared to it, also has lemons. Third one is for a nuance or two more atmoshit version of Monolith with Dissection riffs, which IMHO dont match the atmosphere properly.
Monolith is 10 out of 10. Give it a go.

>>63810853
i don't blame you
it's really good power metal, and really good for people who are turned off by typical power metal tropes and cheese, I can see why people who don't like power metal would like it, it's my fifth favorite power metal album of the decade.

That one is a great track. Then the next son on the album starts with the worst ripoff riff from Reinkaos. I dont mind the rip off thing, as I said, I mind that the "le evil sounding riff" meme doesnt really jell well with the atmosphere of their music.
does tech death count?
