[quote name='lordopus99']I am mostly a Hardcore (Poison the Well, Hopesfall, Atreyu, ...) fan.
The only metal band I sometimes listen to is God Forbid. They are pretty good.[/quote]
those bands aren't hardcore bands. i'm not trying to start a debate and i'm not even saying if i think they are good or bad bands, that's not the issue, the issue is that all of these bands are called "hardcore" bands when they are anything but. hardcore bands are bands like sick of it all or agnostic front and the like, and i think equating the sound of atreyu to the sound of sick of it all isn't a good idea. i just think that people should call it something else, even call it metal, i'm ok with that, because atreyu is closer to metal than they are to hardcore.
although i already mentioned my favorite metal band earlier in the thread (goatsnake), here's a short list a few others i enjoy:
Ozzy of course
Black Sabbath (orignal set, though RJDio got a couple of good albums with them)
Old school Metallica (I even liked Load, please don't hit me)
Anthrax (Stomp 442 is one of the best albums ever)
Pantera
Megadeth
Iron Maiden (partial to Blayze Bailey's vocals, sorry)
AC/DC
Just started listening to Black Label Society. More good stuff.
For the old shit, I like Slayer, Motorhead, Pantera, Trouble, Sabbath, Celtic Frost.
For new shit I like Electric Wizard, HIGH on Fire, Mastodon..
For those of you who want to learn more about the newer bands (that don't get played on the radio) check out this website, STONER ROCK www.stonerrock.com
[quote name='defender']Does anyone remember Accept? Balls to the wall!
lol..I loved that midget.[/quote]
yeah, he's cool.
Metallica all the way. if u don't like St. Anger, fine. but you have to listen to the older stuff, like the "Black Album" , really titled Metallica. that is the good stuff.
Im just getting in metal and my starting cd is gonna be Decade of Aggression Live from Slayer. Its gonna be a long car drive on July 10 and i need somethin to keep me goin.
