I realized I've never listen to any metal band with female vocals. can you recommend some or are they all trash? I prefer clean vocals.
>>65284342
They're all trash.

>>65284432
kek
>>65284342
Depends on what you're into.
Doom bands like Witch Mountain, Jex Thoth, etc are probably the most obvious and accessible. I'd recommend Royal Thunder and Blood Ceremony too.
For black metal there's a lot of female fronted acts but they're all hit or miss. Avoid Astarte, they're terrible.
Consider the following.
Darkestrah
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evoG7eKH4j4
Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsr0pwihGto

If you're comfortable with your homosexuality, Arkona's good for a lark also.
[spoiler]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt6_65LDZ60[/spoiler]
Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult is one of the most generically boring bands though, they aren't good, and until a week ago I didn't know their vocalist was female

I'm honestly fucking sick of all this RITUAL bullshit, it was a little fun at first, but now it's actually disgustingly stupid
>>65284555
Necrovision is actually pretty decent but as a whole I agree.
Oh yeah, Sylvaine is mildly interesting too. Her 2016 release 'Wistful' is the one worth checking out, it sounds a ton like Alcest. Not really my thing, but I'm sure a lot of you will like it.

This is shit
>>65284978

>>65284966

>>65284995
Chart is shit because it has no Arch Enemy. Amott can run circles on whatever shitty band you like shithead.
>>65285030
No, Arch enemy is really very generic and middle of the road melodeath. If they didn't have a female vocalist they'd have been forgotten before they ever started.
Are you that same anon who was going on about Arch enemy a couple weeks ago, something about how they had so many 8s in their discog or something? Because before now that was the only time our of high school someone had ever said they liked arch enemy in my entire life.
What age did you guys get into metal? Late bloomer here, I was already 16, and whenever I hear peoples stories of their first record I get kind of envious, my first record was by the Donots
>>65285073
Not that anon.
And how are they middle of the road melodeath. Something isnt middle of the road just because you stated it. Prove it.
And Michael Amott literally created melodeath.
Was in Carcass, created two albums. Also made Carnage. How is he not worshipped.
>>65284365
>Crowbar
I get that joke
>>65285147
>How is he not worshipped.
because
>created melodeath
>>65285143
around 12, bit earlier if you count hair metal and stuff like Korn
>>65285143
Started when I was around 11 or 12. First heard Dragula and fell in love with all the dark stuff that it had(was used to hip hop.) Then got into megadeth, maiden and metallica. First record was that greatest hits of Megadeth with the nuke explosion.
So glad I dropped hip hop.
>>65285143
Don't worry, my first record was Basshunter
tbf I was 10 and played a ton of dota with my mates
>>65285147
Michael Amott is definitely very talented, or was at one point, because Archenemy is just bland. Nothing special, the riffs aren't complex or intricate or creative at all. It sounds like any other cookie cutter melodeath that might have reached a tiny bit of popularity.
As for "Something isnt middle of the road just because you stated it. Prove it.", well, that applies to you to. Prove Arch enemy deserves critical acclaim and this general's respect.
>>65285143
19 I think, never had a embarrassing nu-metal/dad metal/metalcore phase, but instead transitioned into black metal, death metal and sludge metal (grindcore too, if that counts) from the more extreme kinds of punk.
>>65285182
>Created melodeath
>created Necroticism and Heartwork, some of the most celebrated albums in metal
Your retort is shit, you explain nothing.
>>65285193
>>65285210
That's so early
>>65285197
I've been listening to pop punk and glam rock until I was about nine years old, at that point I listened to radio pop for a small time and dropped it immediately for buttmetal and hip hop.
I listened to hip hop and entry-level metal for until I was 16, but I really can not stand hip hop anymore, metal just stuck with me
>>65285143
Around 13
I was listening to shit like Green Day, Eminem, The Who, and AC/DC already. I remember in Grade 8 (on our recess) my friend showed me fucking Bonded By Blood and I was captivated. He showed me a bunch of thrash bands (which I still don't know how he found) and I went from there.
So I started off as a "thrash till death" and "all other metal is bad" faggot.
>>65285143
At around 16 with Iron Maiden. I didn't really listen to anything other than generic pop before that.
What band should we turn into a meme next?
>>65285254
I can write you a paragraph and you will never change your mind.
How about this, post god tier melodeath that you think is better than AE.
>>65285319

>>65285323

>>65285271
>grindcore

>>65285366
I love the shit out of At The Gates.
Can we at least agree that the first 3 AE records and possibly Wages of Sin are great?
>>65285291
well, I wasn't into metal at 10 (unless you count Linkin Park).
Metallica was the first proper metal band I got into. I guess I started listening to that at 11 or 12
>>65285271
what would be an "embarassing dad metal" phase? i hope you mean motley crue and AC/DC instead of black sabbath and metallica.
>sludge metal
now that's embarassing.
>>65285143
14 or 15, I can't remember exactly. I was into stuff like HIM and Cradle of Filth. I moved to a new school and met some goth chick who was two years ahead of me and she turned me onto a ton of stuff. Tragically I moved away a couple days after I started talking to her. I've never been able to track her down since then and it's been almost ten years.
;_;
>>65285398
No, we can't agree on that. Where's that paragraph?
>>65285435
You break my heart senpai
Can we agree that Carcass is the shit

Yeah sure. Swansong not so much but heartwork was genuinely good I think.

>>65285529

Then why is there literally no good nu-metal, djent, blackgaze or prog metal?
>implying this isn't one of the best live albums of all time
>>65285470
That's the only song I like out of that album
>>65285676
based as fuck! The video version is crazy good too.
>>65285506
>>65285563
Early Carcass is overrated
Reminder that Glen Benton is a fag who hates his fans and you should never support him or his shit music.
Also he should have just offed himself like he said he was, fucking fake poser.
>>65285666
Well, Satan, if you call Faith No More nu metal, then they were good, as is Korn and Slipknot's debuts. Djent isn't my strong suit, so I'll give you that, but blackgaze has Alcest and Neige's other projects, and prog metal has released a lot of good albums, more recently the underappreciated Los Random who's 2014 Pidanoma is one of the better prog metal albums of this decade
>>65285734
sadly there are probably 'people' who actually believe this
Soilwork used to have decent riffs before they went full buttmetal
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCw0PGCsEYw
>>65285714
I really wish the CD version included Jello Biafra's spoken word and Land of Rape and Honey but thankfully I found a high quality laserdisc rip of it.
>>65285595
Seriously though, everybody listens to muisic, everybody is a "music fan". It takes no investment, neither social or intellectual to enjoy and understand to the fullest most music.
On the other hand, being a chinese cartoon conneisseur takes some serious commitment. On the social side, most people, including casual fans of the medium will despise you for being serious about your interest. Intellectually, you obviously need to have a keen eye for visual art in general to fully appreciate all the intricacies of the great anime works but this alone is not enough: as a westerner, you have to learn a whole new language to understand what's going on (subs or dubs are a disgrace to the medium) as well as have a solid understanding of the culture and history that lies behind anime, none of which comes easily.
>>65285755
Goregrind is trash genre anyway
>>65285752
FNM definitely isn't nu-metal, although I'm not exactly sure what they qualify as. Is the term 'alternative metal' allowed or have we decided there's no such thing? Because that really seems like the only fitting tag.
>>65285780
A lot of it is shit but the good stuff is great
>>65285778
now this is a well thought out, professionally crafted bait with actual real effort put into it

This is boring.
DFHVN definitely isn't black metal, although I'm not exactly sure what they qualify as. Is the term 'black gays' allowed or have we decided there's no such thing? Because that really seems like the only fitting tag.

from what i've heard of them they're good funeral doom. i don't have a lot of experience in the genre, so take that for what it's worth.

Then you are retarded, famalam. To judge music based on which tonality it uses instead of the actual music isn't very smart. And some band, and interprets can implement dissonace really well. Do you by any chance enjoy a genre in which harmonic minor leads over power chord progressions are prevalent?
>>65285143
19 I think, never had a embarrassing dad rock/metal (metallica, ac/dc, etc) phase, but instead transitioned into black metal, drone and sludge metal (grindcore too, if that counts) from the more extreme kinds of punk, shoegaze and screamo.

Zero dynamics in songwriting or texture in production. And a very soft and trite approach to the Black Metal aesthetic. It took almost no ambition or risk to make Myrkur exist.
