Yes they did, you shithead. There's not one single motherfucking guitarrist who doesn't have Iommi as his main influence. This guy literally invented every single guitar riff ever; After him people merely mimmick what he played but speeding up the tempo, or slowing it, or playing it backwards, whatever.
Their blues roots were only tied to their first album, on paranoid onwards they invented their own sound, which then people like Pentagram and Judas Priest took lots of inspiration.

>>316443327
>Yes they did
No, no they didn't, kid. No one band invented anything, it happened over time.
Bands back in the day were taking shit from other bands and implementing it in their own sound. Guitarists hear others tuning a certain way, or using effects, they like it, and then they use it in their shit. Drummers hear big band and jazz drummers using double kick (blast beats), they think it's cool so they start doing it etc.etc... Bands today are still doing this.
The same people think Black Sabbath just invented the metal genre one day are the same idiots that think Rush invented prog, and Michael Jackson invented the moonwalk.

Only Hendrix, Kilmister and Mustaine to some extent are actually talented in there. Maybe Dio and Bowie, but singing is more about being naturally born with it than learning anything.

High attacks can't hit him, and after the post-depression buff, his attack strength is buffed through the roof.
Lindemann is great too, all of his attacks do insane burn damage, even if he takes small damage constantly.
Fuck Hetfield mains though, all they do is spam their "YEAH!" taunt. Fucking Kirby's of this game.
>>316443841
I think it's pretty sad how Iced Earth hasn't put out a decent album since Something Wicked. Also they were better when they were more thrashy, like their first 2 albums. Their early stuff is godlike.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqewBHgfd6A
>>316444191
I stopped caring about them the last time they fired Barlow.
>>316444191
True of at least half of all metal bands, unfortunately...
>>316444191
I think they did a damn good job with the Gettysburg trilogy in Glorious Burden.
also Dystopia and Plagues of Babylon were pretty good.
>>316444151
That's why i'm saying, out of that list. Though i hold Mustaine i higher regard than Kilmister because he wrote most of Megadeth's stuff, his soloing is nothing much outside of "muh shred", which gets boring after a while, but he used to write some pretty sick riffs and licks.
>>316444140
Agreed. Honestly Kiko Loureiro seems to be first since Friedman to actually seem like he gets near his level, Broderick was good but he had no feeling to anything he played.
>>316443902

Grand Funk Railroad is more metal than 90% of the homofaggotry in that list.

>>316433652
Wrong album, turdbrain. Also, this doesn't work as well with Pantera because that doesn't look like a game cover. Maybe an edgy 90s ad.

B-but anon, Warp Riders is their best album. After that, i don't really enjoy them either though, too much stoner rock, too little doom.

>>316443960
Right... because composing and playing your own music doesn't make you talented.
Also, "singing is more about being naturally born with it than learning anything" is a fucking stupid statement.
If you don't like music, don't pretend to know anything about it.
>>316444457
I disagree. Freedie Mercury always was a brilliant composer and an unique singer and beats everyone else in this picture. Trent can get some kudos for being very avantgarde for it's time and helping to popularize Industrial. Everyone else are generic people, and it's a shame to think that a motionless faggot such as Mustaine or a random drunk such as Lemmy could be even compared to him.
>>316444457

>>316444371
I found most of the stuff on the last 2 albums to be pretty generic, outside of maybe 2 or 3 songs from each album. Their last consistent album was Framing Armaggedon, and only because of Ripper's vocals, the actual instrumental is nothing impressive. I wish they'd kept him instead of hiring Barlow again, only to fire him later anyway. Also new singer honestly sucks, he can't quite nail Barlow nor Ripper, and doesn't have enough personality to add something original to the songs.

Nothing else in their catalog beats Ebethron or The Black River though.
Totally agree that they shifted way too far in the direction of pure stoner rock. They also push the merch way too hard these days IMO. Don't want to call them sellouts but....

Not every singer is a composer, that's really uncommon. Most singers are like Halford or Ozzy, they don't really know any musical shit, they just sing it because they have it in their lungs.
Also you can't deny Friedman was talented, check his solo stuff, he's legit good.

They really did sellout tho. They're clearly softening their sound to make it to radios and stuff, which i think is kind of dumb, not every band can a pull a Metallica, and they'll never reach Kyuss or Queens of The Stone Age popularity. They should do like most big stoner/sludge/doom bands and play for that fanbase and enjoy what that has to offer.

Tell that to metallica, Korn. Limp Bizkit and any other hell spawns of metal. Not to mention the current metalcore craze that tries to awfully mix thrashmetal and pop punk with deathcore screaming.

Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit are Nu-metal.
Nu-metal=Thrash metal/rock/and hip hop/rap elements fused together to make a funk rockish sort of sound. It has absolutely nothing to do with punk. Korn themselves started the whole movement and they are the reason Limp Bizkit exists. Linkin Park drew inspiration from Limp Bizkit and Deftones. All Nu-metal. Nothing to do with punk.

Today /v/ reminded me why I avoid metal forums and metal fans at all costs. Hardcore metal fans are the worst, the absolute scum of scum of all music fans. I'd rather be in a room with fifteen jazz fans and fourteen smelly old women that only listen to Wagner than spend a single minute conversing with a hardcore metal fan.
Every single metal forum on the internet is terrible and this thread is giving me flashbacks of the insufferable retards I would encounter when I was a young metal fan wanting to discuss awesome bands with people on the internet.
The same circular arguments jerking off over who knew the most obscure band or the band with the worst production, shitting on everything that hasn't been released on cassette, the endless fucking arguments about genres and sub genres and sub sub genres of blackened death apocalyptic satanic gumby metal.
Thank you, /v/, you put a bit of hatred in my heart before I go to bed. Sweet dreams.

Power metal bands become so restricted by their genre. They must all sound like Helloween or Nightwish. They must all have the same fantasy lyrics and gallooping riffs with double bass. They all sound the same.

>>316448156
The rise of a genre isn't about finding the earliest possible example of what could be considered similar elements. Why do spergs always do this. It's not about "firsts."

Just makes you sound like a retard since as far as I can tell in this thread nobody's posted any really out there subgenres. They're mostly the common ones: black, death, doom, etc, all of which are pretty different if you actually listen to them. Speed metal might be one actually that I think is stupid.

>>316448000
But nightwish is more symphonic metal isnt it? But i dunno, im really bad at la eling bands.
>>316448605
Stoner is a shitty genre name, but it basically means slower songs with a groove, sometimes spacey, almost jam-like feel (even if the songs don't involve any actually jamming, it's that feeling of an extended, rolling groove).
Doom metal is basically long, slow songs with a lot of homages to early Black Sabbath.
>>316448937
Well I broke it because Im a sucker for shitty pop punk as well.
>>316448760
>They're mostly the common ones: black, death, doom, etc, all of which are pretty different if you actually listen to them
THOSE subgenres are fine. There are clear differences between them and they all sound really different.
I mean once you start getting into the tertiary descriptors like with blackened symphonic doom metal or beyond is when it starts getting retarded, especially because only the weirdest and most autistic of metal fans will go that far, but those are always the loudest ones and they will argue against each other for hours whether something belongs in one tertiary subgenre or another.
Genres are fine, subgenres are fine, but there comes a point where it stops being useful and just exists for people to be smug and jerk off over how much more they think they know about music than others.

No, it's saying the majority of what defines X arose at that time. Not that it's the earliest possible example of anyone doing something that could be considered X.

>>316449107
>blackened symphonic doom metal
At a point I can understand it getting harder and harder to hear the difference but this isn't really that odd. Symphonic is a clear qualifier with a meaning. Blackened means it's influenced by black metal. So I wouldn't consider this all that strange but I would probably question if the person using this term could actually hear the influence because I probably couldn't. There are people much better at picking things out from music than I am.

>>316448605
not the guy you're asking, but my two cents...
stoner metal is generally slow, bass-heavy, down tuned, and often the guitars are played through a bass amp. Check out Kyuss, Sleep, and High on Fire.
Doom is sort of similar in that it's slow and down tuned but is usually even slower and more down tuned. The lyrics are more often than not based off a satanic or occult theme. Check out Come My Fanatics by Electric Wizard.

>>316434324
Pantera are pretty anti meme desu.
>>316448605
Sure, Stoner is closely tied to the psychodelic vibe, it's main traits are catchy riffs and lyrics about drugs or addiction
Doom is heavier, it also features catchy riffs but in slower fashion and lots of drums presence, lyrics are mainly about deppressive shit
Sludge is a mix of Doom and Hardcore/punk, it's heavy but a bit faster, then REALLY slow at times, lyrics about both about depressive shit
These 3 genres constantly are put together, a band hardly plays only one of the 3, but instead their own mix. I'll recommend some of my favorite:
Stoner/Doom
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hr2m1VzTAI8
Sludge/Doom
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfGIQvACP9c
Sludge/Doom
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-LNFCTMs24
Doom
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7JTD_73kpI
Stoner/Doom
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDnz37HQFc0
Now the biggest ones:
Electric Wizard - Doom early, Stoner/Doom later
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBdkbqgAmto
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDUGHaSZM3s
Sleep - Stoner/Doom, probably the most influential of the genres alongside Electric Wizard
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-FjO3E8K-E
They also have this really cool concept album which is basically a single song played for 1 hour and 3 minutes nonstop. Should probably get a liking to stoner before listening to it, it's called Dopesmoker.
Kyuss - it's actually stoner rock, but they were probably the first band to start it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaeUak_35VU
Also listening to Black Sabbath's Master of Reality is essential
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Dra6y5agWM
>>316449286
When you say "the genre was born in the 90's", you're saying it originated in the 90's, and that is clearly incorrect.
Just because something gains popularity at a certain point, doesn't mean it started at that point.

That's typically the stereotype for black metal but even then there's plenty of black metal that isn't like this.
Varg Vikernes is the guy that popularized the burning churches thing (I think) and at least when he started playing music he played black metal. You should read up on the early black metal shit that involved Varg and members of Mayhem. It's pretty interesting I think.

>>316449842
I think that was proven wrong (and I think that was Euronymous anyway) but Euronymous did make necklaces out of someone's skull after he pretty much convinced him to kill himself. Though the guy that did kill himself, Dead, apparently had some mental illness where he actually believed he was already dead. He slit both his wrists, slit his throat, and then shot himself in the forehead with a shotgun.
>>316449873
With Hearts Toward None is so goddamn good. That album is really solid too, but I'm not seeing the AOTY!!!! hype.
>>316449859

The problem with discussing metal is that metal is a catch all term for what is a huge and extremely varied genre. "Metal" can refer to Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Burzum, Megadeth, or Gorguts for example, all of which sound nothing alike. Naturally, people will gravitate towards certain styles and dislike others. This being the internet, and 4chan especially, people will be hostile to things they don't like and declare all taste that differs from their own, shit.

I seriously wanted to like it, but it fucking sucks, and it's not funny at all.
>>316451469
This album freaked me out a little when I got my hands on it in high school. It was so hostile and angry compared to what my friends were listening to, and I thought the guys in the band were probably legit messed up in the head. Now I'm like, "lol." I was a sheltered kid, obviously even as bands go there was way crazier stuff well before them.
>>316451469
The whole thing I think it's sick.
>>316443612
That's just because the kids are at different metal concerts, the bands you listen to are dad-tier to teenagers
>>316451736
I'd ask "what are you doing with stolen property?"
>>316451519
He's not that bad, it's just difficult to follow up Dan. Ashe O'Hara was a fluke for TesseracT, and he stupidly left.
>>316451748
>I was a sheltered kid
Just like other Slipknot fans.I was pretty sheltered, too. But I stumbled upon better bands before I even knew what Slipknot was.
>>316451407
metal went back underground. I don't mean that in a hipster way, I mean that almost nobody is marketing metal. The days of endless Metallica merch is long gone. If you want to listen to metal you have to go out there and find it. This is mostly a good thing.
There are far more talented metal bands than ever before, spanning a spectrum of musical tastes broader than ever before.

It's not a very good metal record, but I legit enjoy the drumming on this album. The production is remarkably subdued when you think of the band's reputation and compare it to lot of current stuff.
>>316451827
I like Dan's return more than I like his old stuff with them, but I loved Ashe with TesseracT. Dan with Skyharbor just felt right. I kinda just wish things never changed.

That's exactly what's happening. That's why you have all these bands signed to unheard of labels, more and more are doing the whole "500 limited copies" for their albums and unless they make a youtube channel or bandcamp site to promote their shit, they fly under the radar.

Absolutely pathetic. You try to feel better than others based on fucking vibrations that travel through the air.
There is good to be had in every genre. If you seriously believe that all metal is worse than whatever music you consider valid then you should know that no one really gives a fuck who you are or what your opinion is.
>>316452095
Saw some discussion about Star One and then got into Ayreon shortly after that. Then Iron Maiden, then started listening to more aggressive stuff with Opeth. Don't really listen to metal much anymore. Just started listening to Boris recently though and they're great.
>>316452095
I grew up listening to the classic rock radio station a lot, and knew I liked "that sound" of stuff like the Crazy Train intro, Frankenstein, Smoke on the Water riff, etc. I didn't know what to call it, but I was gravitating toward heavy riffs with a lot of distortion. My brother brought home Metallica's Black Album and I was like "it's that sound... but ALL THE TIME!" and it went from there.

Honestly? The original Rock Band. I really liked Go With the Flow which got me into QOTSA which got me into Kyuss which led me into stoner rock, then metal, electric wizard etc etc
Before that I mostly listened to classic rock and uh, Pearl Jam for some reason.
Back in 2005-2009 there was a huge amount of used CDs from people switching over to mp3 players. Record stores were tanking and trying to dump inventory by marking down used albums. You could walk into a Rasputin's records and pick up 20 wildly different metal albums for $30. That well has tried up though. It's even easier to get cheap/free music these days but I kind of miss picking out a dozen albums just because the art caught my eye.
>tfw saw Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax at Yankee's Stadium

If I want groove and power there is way better stuff out there.

>>316446652
it's just a matter of people not expanding their horizons and seeing their current tastes as static and therefore "correct" in some way, which is why you see it more with young people.
I hate people who describe every music or other preference people have as a "phase", usually associated with age. imo if you have a "phase" with an entire genre you never were really into it in the first place. a true music listener never abandons something they liked, they only acquire new things they enjoy.

You're right about ITP. I've listen to a lot of music and still love that album, but The Sound of Perseverance is one of those CDs that just sucked all of me in and still manages to to this day. Only a few have done that to me, wish the number were higher.
>>316455102
Schuldiner's lyrics and singing style on the last few albums have this incredible ability to describe exactly the state of mind he's trying to convey despite having a nonsensical sentence structure. I think that's what draws me in to the album. He describes some pretty powerful emotions without having to refer to them by name. It makes you realize how inadequate the titles we use for them are.
>>316449808
ehh, I love it but a lot gets a bit too proggy for me, I like the stuff more on the tech-death side.
>>316450610
disturbed was good for a nu-metal band. I liked them in the 90s when I didn't know about much else.

I remembered when some bullies took my "Believe" CD back in high school ( the only album I had owned at the time due to REALLY loving Prayer. Seriously, the fuckers on my radio station played it over five times a day ) went and stole my cd when I wasn't looking, broke it...and then poured chocolate milk over it just for good measure.
It makes me feel good knowing most of those bastards are either jobless or stuck in their projects forced to sell drugs or having two children by separate mothers that they have to escape child support from.
>>316451407
what? metal is as popular as it has ever been, probably more so considering the amount of diversity. the "core" of metal was always relatively underground. it has it's period where certain more pop-friendly genres were quite popular, but that was always borrowed time. metal as a genre isn't suited to mass popularity or consumption, even the more accessible stuff. if there can be a consensus among musicians and fans, it would be that metal's proper place is outside the spotlight.
>>316455703
Yeah I feel you, really do. Shame so many people give them a pass. That's okay though, I've met more than enough Death fans that just like to talk about the music and don't need to let the discussion devolve into "who dun it?-death metal edition"

my dad showed me metallica when I was 8 or so, I listened to metallica, judas priest, black sabbath, and iron maiden more or less exclusively for a few years, up until guitar hero 3 came out and I learned about slayer, and from then on its been onwards and upwards.
>>316454990
seen them live twice, how long was the MSG show?
I would have wanted them to do more old stuff, but i guess they're all about the sappy shit now
>>316456927
Yeah it wasn't just outspoken fans though. I've been told many times by non-tool fans that they aren't and when I ask why I never seem to get a true answer. They hear it, realize its different because its Prog, and then flip shit.
An example of a Prog band that isn't metal at all despite having metal elements here and there is Coheed & Cambria. They're fine and shit, but not metal. Clear difference in sound. Tool though? Metal all the way and I don't know how anyone can argue otherwise.
That said genre debates are some of the worst ever I try to avoid them
>>316455932
Disturbed isn't really Nu-Metal. They were just labeled that since they came out around the same time the genre was getting popular.
>>316457239
Classification discussions are always horrid as hell, since there's nothing objective and everyone thinks the other is wrong while everyone isn't.
>>316457291
Disturbed doesn't really have rapped lyrics like nu-metal is supposed to, though I guess Droppin' Plates counts.
>>316451843
>>316451748
same. when kids were really into slipknot back in the day I was already listening to more extreme stuff. and even then all the kids I knew who liked them never really knew about other metal and were so obviously trying to project that edgy "hot topic" air about them. I was kind of guilty of that myself as a kid, I hung out with a bunch of "outcasts" but we were never like that. we had to find our own music. I remember getting handed a burned supultura cd in the grade school lunch room that my friend had pirated off some sketchy p2p. I popped it into my shitty sony cd portable and was blown away. simpler times.
>>316452095
my family was poor so I would hang out in borders and leech off the tiny manga and cd collection, I treated it like a library. the first CD I ever bought was the randy rhodes tribute album by ozzy. like 20 fucking dollars. insane. also this >>316452361

but I have to be perfectly honest. "Spit it Out" is actually pretty alright. "Vermillion" from one of their later CDs is actually alright too.

You were saying that Black Sabbath aren't metal. I've listened to each of their albums with Ozzie and they all have some heavy material.
They can be considered blues rock because that's the guitar style that Iommi plays, however your argument about music theory isn't really relevant because we listening to the output. Its inextricable that Black Sabbath did play a major part in establishing Heavy Metal as a genre. You can dispute how significant their part in it all you like.
Incidentally, they tried making a rock album with sabotage, which resulted in them making their heaviest album.
