You can't get past Hangar 18, it's your typical endgame sawtooth. Once you're in, you're not getting out. Unlike most areas of the game, it's impossible to break these walls (they even drop a hint and tell you that the steel is much too strong). If you don't have all the plot essential items before entering, you better hope you have an older save lying around.

Come on anon. Sure, it was nothing like their old releases but you gotta admit it had some good songs.

Youthanasia should be in the great tier, you can't say no to A tout le monde, train of consequences and Elysian Fields. Throw in blood of heroes if we are considering the tracks that were added in the remastered versions.

Also, am I the only one who's pissed with the fact that dave got rid of shawn to favor new guys? Truth be told I never really liked chris for some reason but I have no problem with him being gone.

Shawn on the other hand was a bro, constantly keeping a nice energy vibe in the concerts.

I always wondered what 40+yo dudes we see in those metal bands think about the music they make. Surely they must have gotten quite bored of it, and most of them doing it only because it's their livelihood now.

Anyway I'm sure this is also valid for other music genres and not metal, but people in other genres seem to have more freedom to experiment. While metal fans bash any such attempt before it is born

I'm talking in general terms. Japan tends to breed very good technical players, highly skilled in playing Western instruments, but they tend to lack the soul that carries composing a song. It leads to some very jarring uncanny valley situations across their whole musical repertoire.

Galneryus is pretty good but Syu reuses riffs so much. Sex Machineguns and Anthem are also GOAT japanese bands.

Also Takayoshi Ohmura from Baby Metal is probably the best japanese guitarist. His solo stuff is incredible.

I don't think it's like "Miles" Better but they definitely carry an extra layer. Galneryus is definitely one of my favorite japanese power metal bands, although their engrish lyrics are sometimes silly, the music alone is enough to forgive them.

That classical-like solo in angel of salvation is bananas, the fact that they threw violins in makes it stupidly good. To add on the power metal in japan, I think it's also because they have a keyboardist with them most of the time. You can throw in a lot of stuff that magically clicks perfectly with metal.

I feel like metal is very flexible, just because people close their mind that it's all "inarticulate yelling and hard drum bangs" doesn't mean everyone has to the general idea.

>>318071643
You should give mastodon a listen, it's like a different band is playing with each album they have released, (save for the vocals because you can easily tell it's them of course.) Once More 'Round the Sun and Crack the Skye are definitely my favorite albums.

Remission and Leviathan had some nice tracks too.

Corrupted also puts a lot of emotion into their music, they're a pretty cool jap sludge metal band. Some of the most crushing and depressive shit I've ever listened to

Gallhammer's doom stuff is pretty emotional

you just have to look into japan's extreme metal scene to find the uncanny stuff. The jap power metal bands are really fucking cool from a technical and songwriting perspective but it really feels plastic.

Metallica is the band that put out four great albums that many people pretend don't exist because they didn't like their change in sound, image, or popularity (or two or three of those)
Slayer's last truly worthwhile album came out in 1990, though they still have their moments. They should disband now, though, or at least make their next album their final one.
Megadeth is most people's gateway into "thrash beyond Metallica", and probably most people's gateway into "metal beyond Metallica, Priest, and Maiden"
Anthrax don't get enough credit. Spreading the Disease is an underrated album that's almost on par with Among the Living.

If you already did the two minutes to midnight quest before re-lighting the 7 eternal fires you're fucked unless you go back and re-do the racing level and beat the two lane air car back to the river again, that resets the whole chain for some reason, I'll be honest, no idea why but there may have been a communications breakdown when they were doing the level design.
