VEKTOR EDITION
http://pastebin.com/mH6Kx32L
Old thread: >>64734666
FIRST
Official nu-male bands:
Vektor
Gojira
Any others?
I still think this a nice album
Techdeath sucks with the sole exception of None So Vile
>>64738675
Liturgy, obviously
>>64738655
>tfw I actually haven't listened to the new Vektor album yet
Not sure what meme hype is going to do for my experience. Does anybody have any non-meme opinions about it?
>>64738688
It was above average
>>64738675
Deathspell Omega
Are there any /metal/ approved hardcore bands.
The last tracks on this new Vektor album are excellent but overall it's their weakest album yet.
No catchy riffs or melodies, just well-written and executed music, which is most decent metal.
>>64738675
>nu-male
What is that_
Hey guys remember when we used to like albums instead of shitting on the band because a new album is coming out?
>>64738688
maybe it was my imagination but some of the best use of blast beats I've ever heard
not that its saying much but still
>>64738720
If you have to ask...
>>64738675
nu-male metal is more like deafhaven, ghost, etc
at least get your shit right faggot

>>64738693
I like tech death. The better stuff is very interesting sounding.
>>64738697
It's pretty mediocre honestly. If you like thrash you'll probably find it to be decent, but nothing mind blowing.
>>64738731
Pretty much everything that was done right on King was done better on Agony and Mafia
>>64738745
don't ever reply to me unless you're contributing to the thread.
>>64738737
You'll never know...
>>64738743
We've established that Gojira at least is nu-male shit
this is inarguable
>>64738761
this was my introduction to them so I'll check those out next
>>64738655
vektors erik "weird al" nelson has an rym where he five stars his own albums
https://rateyourmusic.com/~Erikwithafro
>>64738706
which is odd since mikko aspa is the least numale human being that has ever existed
>>64738765
don't ever reply to me unless you're contributing to the thread.

>>64738655
What a coincidence, Vektor is my wife's son's favorite band!
>Album art thread?
Good, bad, whatever
>>64738808
Mafia, Agony, Oracles, Labyrinth
/metal/ likes to shit on FA, I think they're pretty good. The drummer is really impressive imo.
>>64738829
Were you not around last thread? Or are you just a butt blasted nu-male?
>>64738751
you are absolutely right but these threads are shit posting general with or without my help, I might as well talk about the things I want in the hopes that one decent anon would have a nice conversation with me and entertain myself in the process
>>64738829
1.It's slightly hipstery
2.I don't like it
3.nu-males are hipstery and I don't like them
Therefor nu-male shit.
This is the logic I think.
>>64738811
>5 stars on nearly every Dream Theater album
What do you guys think of kylesa
>>64738873
well that checks out
>>64738840
Always do the opposite of what /mu/ says.
>>64738839
>>64738884
>>64738857
And given us a lot of entertainment to come. I now cannot wait for Gojirmeme to release their album. There is going to be so much shitposting and nu-male tears
You gonna be here, liar?
>>64738873
how is black/death/doom metal not hipstery? are they also nu-male metal?
what is nu-male anyway never heard that term

>>64738991
Last thread, like a half hour ago at most?
>>64738761
Really? I thought King was their best album yet.
Although mafia and agony have a slightly different sound. More aggressive maybe? I don't know. Perhaps it's personal taste.
>>64739000
No I won't.
>>64738938
1.black metal is hipstery
2.But I like it
3.Therefor it is not nu-male metal
See how it works now?

I will never understand how people can be so simple minded when its comes to music. This "music" has no depth, no diversity, and no real meaning. It's a trendy cash pump for people to jump on and that's it.

Playing along with songs you like is one of the best ways to practice. Steve Gadd invented some drills that can help you improve really quickly.

>All I see is Mustaine's unruly mop as his head dips lower between my legs. His usual technique is to circle my dick with his slick, crackerjack tongue but tonight he’s doing something different and – it’s exquisite!
>He presses his tongue flat against me as he laps at my balls with long strokes. He starts at the bottom and sweeps it upward in lazy, even lengths. Every time he comes up, I catch his eyes, blazing fire with pleasure and thick desire. As always the pressure is just right and as he stops and re-connects with me again – there, yes! Right there! – I get a 1000 volt jolt, straight to my core.
>I moan, almost scream as he flicks over my whole asshole again. I so much want to grab his head and force his tongue to stay on me and stop this maddening teasing but both my wrists and ankles are tied to the bedposts. I buck my pelvis into his face but his leisurely pace doesn’t change. The heel of his right hand is firmly pressed down onto my pubic bone creating a delicious pressure. His left thumb is rubbing slow circles on my inner thigh, my whole being willing him to move it up – just an inch – and slip it inside.

Agree, but that is only because Black Future and Outer Isolation are almost impossible to beat.
There is nothing wrong with Post-Black Metal

It has more in common with indie folk than actual black metal tho

What's even sadder is that you've managed to convince yourself that your boring, derivative shitty 2brutal4me bands are better than one of the greatest and most influential bands to walk the earth. Don't worry, I went through a faggot phase too but then I realised to stop caring about what other people think about me and just listen to music that is good instead.

>>64740306
Because you like them and you're a nu-male.

>>64740306
I have to voice my opinion on Gojira. They don't suck but I do find them boring. Their songs and albums are too long and samey. They repeat the same riffs to frequently. Why do people like them so much? They have made some good songs but they have yet to make a cohesive, solid album imo
>>64740367
Then you are a moron. Thanks for proving it so I don't have to go through anymore work.
>>64740369
Only literal children and fedora wearing losers think Gojira is a good band. This has been scientifically proven.
>>64740369
I like their combination of powerful and sombre sound. They're kinda like Katatonia merged with Meshuggah.
>>64740326
The production in The Way of All Flesh is pretty dope. It's really well balanced with really heavy drums. And while their guitar work is basic as fuck, the drumming is excellent. Not sure why you think they're supposed to be tech, since they clearly aren't.
>>64740383

Eh, not as much as I was for LES. I think they're just really tired or something. Seems like they're out of ideas, aren't making enough money to stop touring long enough to recuperate and get creative. Note the four-year gaps between albums.

WHY YOU LIKE IT
This one's a little different from all other Summoning album covers but it's one of the most efficient, because it looks way more authentic and better-crafted. The little panels of text on the sides, the cut-off illustration, all that shit stimulates the imagination better than a full landscape or a complete scenery would.

>>64740561
Ulcerate is pretty cool.
>>64740595
How about you explain yourself first?
Take a photo of yourself and post it
>>64740501
See that's funny because /pol/ also uses the word nu-male to describe trendy people from /fa/ with an undercut and shit. So, the exact opposite of the neckbeards in this pic
>gojira lyrics are about protecting environment and activism
t. subvocalizers that cant even read the lyrics and base their opinons about wikipedia articles
>>64740619
/pol/ is thinking of fuccbois
fuccbois are the fashion ones
these types also go by cucks
>>64740608
The Ocean is similar.
Black Crown Initiate is still in their infancy, but they had an extremely strong first release. Song of the Crippled Bull EP is really tightly produced and well-written. Follow up wasn't so hot, but maybe some touring will give them ideas.
The Contortionist is not very technical, closer to -core territory, but Intutition I&II (songs) are worth a listen.
>>64740634
>nu-male detected
also /lit/ detected?
>>64740642
yes, I know, my point is that "nu-male" is yet another one of those buzzwords that only mean "shit I don't like"
The fact that people genuinely like Gojira in this general really upsets me. This isn't reddit for fuck's sake, I don't know why you fuckers come here but please stop it. Go to /b/ or something to discuss your shitty music, we don't need to hear about it here.
>>64740659
And so is buzzword. When someone says something you disagree with you says they're using buzzwords to discredit them.
>>64740664
GOJIRA HAS BIG GROOVES AND SOFT PARTS YOU CAN SLEEP TO
so they're ok
>>64740664
Why don't you give me something you like instead of bitching.
>>64738675
every single blackgaze and dsbm band
>>64740673
that's true
but you can't rightfully deny that "nu-male" is too vague to be taken seriously as a word
>>64740676
>grooves
like pantera?
>soft parts
like atmoshit?
>>64740664
don't you like progressive djentera my friend :DDDD
>>64740694
no, in a different way
pantera's grooves are dry and entirely lack weight and power, not gojira's
and atmoshit doesn't have the same atmosphere
>>64740689
I'm not here to spoonfeed you imbecile
>>64740652
Sorry that should be "Language I&II"
>>64740608

>>64740704

as in djent
>>64740720
that's a lie

And I just explained you that it's also used, just as frequently, to qualify completely different types of persons
with also other charts that make different points
