Post a better album cover
Any of you guys heard this?
i remember Stone Titan being p well like by the sludge crew here, they released a new album a month ago, and it's free
i think it's great, check it out
https://stonetitan.bandcamp.com
also why doesn't last fm allow me to upload cover art fuck this design
>>60810946
Is that a challenge? Well I challenge you to post a better album cover than pic related.
>>60810946
>>60811013
pls no
>>60811013
i hope harmonicas in metal become the next hot new trend
>>60811013
Looks like something between progressive and black metal
>>60811008
>also why doesn't last fm allow me to upload cover art fuck this design
Tell me about it. It's like they don't want me to contribute to their site. What the hell? I have a bunch of cover arts that I want to upload to fix all the blank spaces in my collages but Last.fm doesn't fucking let me for whatever reason. Nice update and everything, too bad we still don't have a functional site after like 4 months.

>>60811742
Classic. That album is really interesting as a sort of alternative Incantation, since it shares many similarities with Ledney's former band while using drastically different production, guitar tone, and vocals.

I jammed some STP today. I don't know what to listen to now
I forgot how good this stuff is, this is some truly creative stuff and holy shit these lyrics, what is going on on these lyrics, the insane but still almost completely intelligible vocals just help this further
the whole thing is just a parade (and i mean this) of memorable lyrics, hooky riffs and snare walls and those
it starts to drag on but still highly fugging reccd for any newbies to the genre
DEATH, PAIN, DITSY CUT STAIN
What kinda meal do normie teens listen to? Is it still generic deathcore is there a fresh new meme on the horizon i wasn't informed of?
What's the name of that band that drinks cough syrup before performing?
They did a cooking show thing where they sampled different cough syrups, it was bizarre.
>>60813392
i'm too fucking old to answer this
fuck
>>60813392
i don't think normie teens listen to meal anymore
>>60813414
same
>>60813392
i think the alternative kids still listen to shitty deathcore and normie kids listen to trap and edm
>>60813412
Weedeater probably.
Frontman is known for vomiting on stage all the time because he drinks it too much.
>>60813392
Normie teens just like rap and edm. the closest to normies listening to meal would be the faggy deathcore kid
>>60813392
misunderstood nerdy prog kids listen to animals as leaders and their clones, and think that The Faceless created technical death metal
the dudebros listen to Northlane

That's awful. We all know Necrophagist really created tech deck :^)

I've never found a band that's even tried it
It hurts a little
>>60813622
>Northlane
Who? Is that someone popular?
>>60814116
Just looked 'em up. Aussie progcore.
>>60814116
yeah they're really popular these days, and their new album seems to be an attempt to break out into the mainstream with a more alt-rocky/post-hardcore sound

>>60814389
Nah I really don't. But the intro was actually pretty good. Nice melodic progression, cool drumming and a good vibe. And then out of nowhere just throw in some lazy out-of-place breakdown. It's just really bad songwriting.
You know what I wanna hear? Metal that almost entirely lacks typical kick-snare percussion. The best you usually get is some timpanis or maybe a snare roll for a few seconds (which is cool).
>>60814461
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68VUrXL0uqs
>>60814434
yeah they're not great - then again there's very few progcore bands who are good songwriters
people like to put them in the same boat as Erra, but Erra write the best melodies in the genre and northlane are pretty content with chugs and ambience
any anons in nashville?
come to daisy duke's cause the bands are ok but the promoter is shit
Posted this in a couple of metal threads. This is really the only way I know how to promote it.
Earthshine - Doomed to Wander and Never Die.
>Atmospheric Doom Metal.
https://earthshinedoom.bandcamp.com/releases
Sample: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyStYBP1euo
>>60814481
The whole aussie -core scene is pretty much either ripping off TAIM or chug with barely there ambiance, which makes the ridiculously huge scene kinda pointless
>>60813176
listen to Orbital Gait by Artificial on repeat till it obliterates you
>>60814478
That's still a snare drum, just with the actual snare (the metal part underneath) removed. Otherwise all of the percussion uses kick-snare patterns. That sound is really annoying, but props to grind/crust/pviolence guys for creating a somewhat new drum sound.
>>60814580

I'm sure a funeral doom band has done something similar to what you're looking for, or at elast songs with nothing but kicks with a fuckton of reverb

>>60814675
why is kayo dot on the left
>>60814651
I used to think I knew a ton about -core until talking to you, so props for that I guess, and I'm surprised more bands don't jock that early Veil of Maya sound

there's nothing random about it though, their style and songwriting are weird but consistent across an album, and they have instantly memorable melodies

Nope. Sorry.
>>60814972
>you are not a true [prog metal] fan
If only that was a status I even somewhat cared about.
>>60814895
i think it's fallen off a bit by the wayside, i think now you're seeing bands utilize some of the downtempo sound in combination with other stuff like Barrier moving to more proggy riff-based stuff and then bands like Darke Complex and My Ticket Home are doing their own thing
but the beatdown stuff has definitely taken a foothold as the new trendy thing in hardcore, Code Orange jumped on the bandwagon and now you have every hardcore band suddenly turning into Xibalba/Harms Way/Nails worship
which is nice, but you get my point, it's definitely become a trend
who influenced who danzig vs the cult?
>>60814972
Pullshit. Prog is great, but I will always hate Dream Theater and its clones.

>>60815036
>Dream Theater and its clones
There are no DT clones in the chart though, except maybe Threshold
There can't possibly be a more underrated progdeath group than Unholy.
>>60815024
Darke Complex are definitely in their own lane, didn't see that coming at all. And that sorta sludgy/doomy sound is def the current hardcore trend, same way everyone was suddenly into HM-2 pedals and Entombed like 3 years ago
>>60815044
Not possible
>>60815044
Some of the best-known prog-metal albums. I guess your "shitload" of metal didn't feature much from that subgenre, eh?
>>60815039
>Diapsiquir
They are edgy, not goofy
>>60815068
I hate Opeth too. I was just saying that's perfectly possible to dislike some major influential albums on certain subgenres, but still like other bands in that subgenre that aren't hacks.
>>60815120
you kidding?
A.N.T.I. is hammy as fuck and changes genres a shit ton of times, even using samples and such
>>60814675
Which side would djent be?
>>60815120
they are absolutely having a fucking giggle
it's a bit more meanspirited than most but even dating back to when they were in Kickback the diapsiquir guys had a reputation for trolling, ANTI definitely turns up the kitsch
>>60815094
i wonder if the next big trend will be that gang vocals throwback stuff that Angel Du$t and Turnstile are doing

How can you just hate Opeth? even people who hate metal can stomach Opeth.
>>60815195
If the "hardcore is metal 10 years ago, but not as technical" theory is true we are about due for some melodeath riffs to come in which would be amazingly stupid
>>60815274
That's why he hates them probably
>>60815274
>even people who hate metal can stomach Opeth.
Not him but that's exactly why I hate opeth desu. It's so bland.
>>60815265
ANUS has better taste than that pic though
>>60815274
Opeth is shallow as fuck with little musical ideas with overbloated songs and has shitty songwriting. Their songs are boring, bland and barely even prog.
listening to operation mindcrime for the first time now, fucking sucks
>>60815274
>it's accessible therefore it's good
quite the opposite
>>60815274
that's why a lot of people hate them, if you can actually stomach metal in the slightest you see how bland, dull and just shallow it is
>>60815306
that's literally a b8 pic, it's not saying much
>>60815327
It doesn't suck, but it is overrated. It's solid heavy metal, but that's about it.
>>60815327

>>60815327
I don't know about sucks, but it's really average, I agree. Then again I hate rock operas.
>>60815265
Do it dawg. I've been shilling this band for a while, start with the pic I posted earlier or their first album (attached). Pretty much everything I've heard by them is great, and unique as hell. No idea why they aren't mentioned alongside the likes of Thergothon and Disembowelment.
>>60815297
>>60815331
>>60815341
>hating band because its accessible
This is why metal fans are children
>>60815356
That's not what I said at all. I love power metal. Opeth sucks because their songs are overlong and lack proper musical development and songwriting.
cant believe i only heard this now. incredible thrash
>>60815356
>>60815385
It's boring though. Like, not even not extreme, it's just really bland. I don't understand why people praise them so much.
>>60815375
>thergothon
shit nigga i gotta check this out. I've heard of them but never listened.
>>60815331
but accessible doesn't mean bad either.
>>60815356
none of those posts say it's not extreme enough
"bland and shallow" applies to their songwriting
>>60815341
Are you implying I can't stomach metal because I like Opeth?
>>60815375
already downloading their whole discog, and any Disembowelment mencions are good
>>60815385
>>60815356
holy shit you fucks will distort and strawman fucking everything to fit your whatever retarded views you have at the moment
>>60815389
>their songs are overlong
ADHD much?
>lack proper musical development and songwriting
That is just false, all their songs have meaningful progressions and structure
>>60815385
>>60815399
it's not boring because it's accessible
it's accessible because it's boring
>>60815362
Not him, but the obvious picks are Barrier and Black Tongue, probably the biggest bands in the genre. For unknowns, which to be honest is pretty much all of them, Bodysnatchers, Extortionist, and A Memoria Brooded are my favorites
>>60815415
Please don't clog the thread up with reaction images.
>>60815420
*tips trilby*
>>60815420
>ADHD much?
I'm perfectly good with legit 20 minute progfest that are written well.
>all their songs have meaningful progressions and structure
Bullshit. The band is extremely guilty of throwing in random ill-fitting acoustic sections for the sake of "progressiveness."
>>60815428
>it's accessible because it's boring
That is fucking retarded argument, if that were true, most popular bands would be atmoblack and drone metal and not metalcore and melodeath
>>60815413
no, i'm saying most of their fans can't stomach other metal
>>60815428
also this
jesus fuck, /metal/ is actually being pretty civilized on Opeth instead of going ANUS on it, why the butthurt?
prog metal gay
>>60815459
>good with legit 20 minute progfest that are written well
Such as who
>random ill-fitting acoustic sections
They might overuse them, but they were great at first
>>60815428
Not quite. It's accessible because it's easily digestible despite having long-form songs made up of disparate parts. People who listen to enough metal and/or prog realize that it ends up being a rather ineffective amalgamation of both. But I guess plebs lap it up because it makes them feel smart.
>>60815459
So what is your measure of a legitimate acoustic section?
>>60815493
>plebs
Come on man, metal elitism is the least cool thing ever.
Well this thread is going places
I will honestly never stop loving Opeth because they got me into more extreme metal music
Even though their new stuff is rather boring
>>60815514
it's literally the only reason this thread survives
where can i get bathory goat shirt without crap on teh back
>>60815362
worth checking out: Ovid's Withering, Feign, Rex, Bodysnatcher, Belie My Burial/Coppermouth, King Conquer, Darke Complex, Reflections
for more straight up beatdown stuff look up Choke Chain, No Zodiac, Kublai Khan
>>60815514
We're not as elitist as 8ch/metal though
>>60815493
Same can be said about Iron Maiden or Blind Guardian who are universally loved among metal fans
>>60815529
I'd rather listen to cheesy prog than atmoshit
>>60815545
just wear it under a sweater brah
>>60815443
Fug, already got all theirs. I'll shill out some Russian downtempo I guess. If you want brickwall of sound, then check Echoes of Misanthropy. Shivers are pretty good, get Feign and xKingx vibes. Restrains if you're into early Barrier, they just remastered their last two EPs into one album.
>>60815492
>Such as who
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuE9vpm7bW0
>>60815497
It's a matter of songwriting. One of the reasons why I don't like Opeth is because the acoustic sections are obviously shoehorned in as opposed to being well integrated into the song. For an example of a good acoustic section, this Lengsel song is a great example of usage of acoustic guitars in metal.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKugiqMYhOg
>>60815552
i haven't gone to cripplechan's /mu/ in a while but last time i checked, they weren't elitist at all, they kind remind me of older /metal/
>>60815554
Blind Guardian is mediocre, and most of Iron Madien's albums are too. Granted, Iron Maiden also has masterpieces like Seventh Son. They're new albums was pretty good too.
>>60815547
OW aren't beatdowncore though, they're djentcore meets Carach Angren
>>60815547
Thanks! Choke Chain and BMB were the only two I haven't checked yet, pretty good stuff.
>>60815554
I wouldn't disagree if we're talking about modern Iron Maiden and Blind Guardian.
>>60815554
>Same can be said about Iron Maiden or Blind Guardian who are universally loved among metal fans
That's not even remotely true. Unless you're only addressing the last sentence of my post, in which case it's still untrue seeing as your average IM fan looks like an unkempt 40 year old hesher.

Imaginations, Nightfall, and A night at the opera are good. Everything else is disposable. Early Helloween is better in every way.
>>60815588
Yeah their new albums were way better than they had any right to be.
>>60815664
fuck off gay idiot
>>60815590
true
i started to name off some more general non-downtempo bands
AngelMaker's newest was decent, A Night In Texas' newest was decent even if the lyrical themes were fedora/10
I Exalt was pretty good too
>>60815662
i only go there for /cyber/ since /g/ stopped doing cyberpunk threads i haven't checked out many of the other boards yet
>>60815664
Leave pls
>>60815667
Nonsense, Somewhere Far Beyond is way better than anything you listed.
>>60815674
there's nothing wrong with hating iron maiden and/or being gay
>>60815692

before all the normies go to sleep and the general dies, i would like to formally declare that mgla is crap

both of those things are very bad imo
>>60815664
We're all proud of you.
>>60815709
Agree
>>60815654
Huh, well the 20 min prog song was Gonin-ish's Akai Kioku which is a mindblowing song. It's especially ambitious when you realize it's essentially through-composed (not very common in metal).
The other song was Lengsel's Avmakt which is basically black metal, but it has nice riffing and the acoustic bits in it are extremely tasteful.
>>60815688
i usually browse /cow, /r9k and /monster there.
Is there any monster girl-themed meal out there?

>listen to a band that hasn't released a good album since 1990
kill yourself and you hot topic faggot
>>60815569
It ain't sludgewave if the production isn't just one long clip, and Russians are really into deathcore in general, nearly as much as aussies
>>60815704
Somewhere Far Beyond has the best songs the band has ever written (the title track, Journey through the Dark, and Time what is time). They went downhill with Imaginations imo and Nightfall was where it all just went completely wrong.
>>60815759
>since 1990
since ever*

Good idea. Listen to this.

>not liking Brave New World
>>60815789
i like iron maiden and so do a lot of people, a lot of people dislike gays and rightfully so.
>>60815777
Completely the opposite, Somewhere was a total cheesefest of pure shit, Imaginations and Nightfall actually had some imagination and good songwriting in it. I still get the title track of Imaginations stuck in my head occasionally.
>>60815688
A Night in Texas' high vocals are pretty much perfect to me which makes the horrible lyrics that much more painful, but this year in general has been pretty decent for vanilla deathcore. Slaughter to Prevail's EP was alright
>>60814708
The point of the structure IS to be absolute bedlam.
>>60815759
>and you

if you dont feel anything from the trooper or hallowed be thy name then theres something wrong with you
>>60815825
Nightfall is way cheeser than Somewhere Far Beyond. I don't even know how anyone could possibly think the opposite.
>>60815841
Yeah only edgy kids shit on classic maiden. However the band has been garbage since the 90s.
>>60815844
It's the interludes on Somewhere. They just kill me.
>>60815768
True that, this is the pinnacle of Russian production:

The fucking hiroshima drop at 0:37
>>60815841
Iced Earth's version was better
>>60815863
>interludes on Somewhere
There's literally only one or maybe two if you count the short little ballad. Nightfall has way more interludes and they're terrible. Are you sure you didn't mix up the two albums?
>>60815867
That video is seriously one of the greatest ever, rapping in a language besides English, the Wu-Tang hoodie, the masks, the amazing "fuck the mix" drops, just beautiful
>>60815891
I'm pretty sure. I know there was less interludes on Somewhere, but when they were there they just made me want to kill myself. Idk, it's been a long time since i listened to either. I'm going by my scores on rym. I gave Somewhere a 2 and Imaginations a 3.5. Doesn't matter because Nightfall is their best work anyway.
>>60815867
i'm at a loss for words
>>60815768
man now you're making me wonder what indonesian deathcore would sound like. would probably be the next level of raw
>>60815867
>slavs
>people
>>60815935
Nightfall is too plagued with interludes and bullshit. If everything was as good as Mirror Mirror, I wouldn't complain about it at all.
>>60815961
>deathcore album by cranial incisored
i want this so bad
>>60815991
idk man, it's been like two years since I listened to them, I'm just going off memory.

>getting my friend into power metal through suburb live performances
Thanks, Blind Guardian and Rhapsody. You came through when I needed you
RNG, or Peachy, why is Opeth considered "vapid" prog? Why the hate? Their earlier stuff is pretty good, Imo. Mikael Akerfeldt's voice has a solid and distinct aesthetic, there is plenty of moments where the guitar work resonants with me (and plenty that don't, mind you), the bass work has occasionally cool ideas.
I get that calling it 'teh bes prug' is pretentious and all, but everything before Ghost Reveries is by no means shit...?

I've been pushing deathcore/sludgewave/beatdown for a while desu, its just that people other than me and dmshareguy are actually talking about it
>>60816097
Actually, I will give their first two credit for being more unique and less bland. Although I still find it too disjointed.
Afterwards, they went completely vapid.

Literally, irrelevant. Totally depends on your sorting options.

On sputnik the featured review of that album is a 3 out of 5, which by their standards is as bad as something can be without outright calling it dogshit.
Unfortunately, the user reviews are a majority 5's
>>60816176
the 2 most upvoted reviews are negative
The guy who wrote the most popular one is literally stereotypical tryhard avant-teen

>>60816094
>suburb
you'd think a high-profile band like that would play at a downtown venue!
>>60816140
Woah, Opeth have way more bolded albums then I thought they did
>>60816181
I'm actually not to much of a fan of their first, to be honest. I like My Arms, Deliverance, Damnation, and their last two softer outputs.
>>60816177
I'm not trying to hide my identity you know, I just don't trip because I'd probably garner a bunch of trip-fag drama for being intolerant of stupid bandwagon faggotry.
But anyway, at least you gave an honest answer to my question.
>>60816225
depends, half the big name bands play in suburbs or out of the metro area on their tours where i live even though it's a big city on the east coast
>>60816221
Same way this can

sputnik is obsessed with being objective so they'll outright remove negative ratings of highly-rated albums
lmao
>>60816294
how can someone be this sad
>>60816294
No, if something's average hits 4.3 with a couple hundred votes they will not allow it to be rated below a 2 until the average drops back below 4.3 to keep people from spamming an album with meme 1's.
Sput>RYM by a large margin
>>60816294
>sputnik is obsessed with being objective
There is no such thing when opinions are involved.

>>60816283
I really don't get how Opeth and Porcupine Tree have so many highly rated albums yet everyone on the forums shits on them
I personally love them, but both their fans and haters suck
awesome, new studio diary from Mithras!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oQz4sTSCac
>>60816336
Wasn't hating, Opeth doesn't really do anything for me, but I was more surprised by just how many albums they both have and how highly rated they are
>>60816294
>sputnik is obsessed with being objective so they'll outright remove negative ratings of highly-rated albums
Something about this doesn't seem right.
>>60816201
I like sputnik more than RYM because there are no dum downraters, avant-teens, poptimists or curve autists
>>60816294
>>60816335
Proof?
>>60816370
I think it's classic case of something getting overhyped, there are many acclaimed albums I love and dislike, but the recent Opeth bashing seemed like bandwagon
>>60816335
Opinions can have an objective basis: They can be based in a comprehensive understand of each aspect of the music. So you can have "semi-objective" opinions.
But yes, the notion of an objective opinion is literally nonsense.
>>60816376
Also their reviews are mostly decent and no personal story or trying to be funny bullshit

New thread.
>>60816400
Opeth was always very much a love it or hate it band, but recently it's pretty much all been hate which is weird
>>60816371
Because he is talking out his ass. My post was proof of the opposite of what he said, the main review of Blackwater Park is a 3, which is basically terrible, and the average rating for it is 4.5, which is top 100 albums ever rated on the site.
So, its a highly rated album, with a bad review. So he is wrong.
why aren't you listening to the patrician's genre of metal right now?
Dusktone's been pretty based recently with slightly off BM
https://dusktone.bandcamp.com/album/escarre-une-vou-te-sans-clef-dusk025cd
>>60816333
that leads to rating inflation
rym uses vote weighting to reduce the impact of downrating abuse
>>60816428
