NeuPolska wrote:How it feels to listen to this album:

It feels like I'm Braveheart (William Wallace), and as I put on my war paint I'm leading a massive army of strong shirtless warriors through forests and plains, over rivers and mountains, across ravines and chasms, and then we meet the tyrannical King and his Knights. I lift a massive two-handed sword, the gems in its handle glistening in the sun. I order the charge, and my warriors charge into the King's men. As my men cut down the knights, I'm on a horse leaping high over their heads, bringing my sword down on all those around me as the horse lands. The horse dies but I stand up and spin, cutting through every knight around me. Soon the enemy King approaches, and I rip off my chest armor before giving a mighty battle cry heard from Valhalla itself. I charge, but the King pulls out a wicked battleaxe, and our weapons clash, a massive burst of energy coming from the steel. Suddenly, I yell and overpower the King, and cut him in the torso. He seethes and we fight, clashing sword and axe, with every parry manifesting into a fierce blue bolt of lightening.

Finally, I cut into the King, and through his body. He falls, blood coming from his mouth. I raise my bloodied sword with both hands on the handle and all my warriors cheer at the heavens. The reign of tyranny has ended, though at a cost. I've been hit heavily, and I'm beginning to bleed out. Suddenly, a ray of golden light comes down on me and my sword. The gems in the sword's handle begin to glow brightly, and the sword begins to carry me up to the sky. Angels come down with harps, ridding me of any aches. God himself meets me, and blesses my sword with the power to slay any foe, and grants me immortality so long as I continue to uphold righteousness and honor. My horse is resurrected, now with wings and immortality for all eternity. I accept and come back down to my warriors, carried by only the most beautiful of angels. With honor and glory we have saved the land from evil and now a new age of peace and prosperity can begin, led by me as I soar through the skies on my horse, sword in hand.


When I thought the movie couldn't get any more historically inaccurate, you had to top it.
Lars Ulrich: Hello, Dave. Look at your band. Now back to mine. Now back at your band. Now back to mine. Sadly, your band isn't mine, but if they stopped playing pure thrash metal and switched to a tough guy version of Motley Crue, they could sell like they're Metallica! Look down, back up, where are you? You're on the high road, taking it higher like a super collider. That album was great. What's in your hand, back at me. I have it, it's a hard drive with all the private information of the users we banned from Napster. Look again, the hard drive is now Babymetal. Anything is possible when your band reeks of pop. I'm wearing a thong.

It started out decently, but it quickly started getting pretty meh to me, too. I guess power metal just sounds too "cheesy" for me most of the time.

I guess when I was talking about power metal earlier, what I meant that usually annoys me is, one, the main singers, and two, how so many of the bands have like, the whole god damn band singing in parts. It's just annoying to me, I guess. When I was talking about the annoying operatic parts that I'm entirely sick of in music, I meant symphonic metal there, I think I just got that mixed up because I've heard so many bands that are both power metal and symphonic metal, so both became cheesy to me because of it.

Of course everyone's opinions vary but I think it'd be fun to come up with a list of the "greatest" albums of every genre. I offer up either The Negation or Nihility as the best technical death album.

Super quick list I made up as I wrote :p

Alternative*: Slipknot - Vol III: Subliminal Verses
Avant-garde: Opium Warlords - Taste My Sword of Understanding
Black: Impaled Nazarene - Nihil
-Atmospheric: Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss
-Depressive suicidal: Exiled from Light - There Is No Beauty Left Here...
-Progressive: Galaktik Cancer Squad - Eroberer
-Raw: Satanic Warmaster - Strength & Honour
-Symphonic: Anorexia Nervosa - Redemption Process
Black/thrash: Urn - Soul Destroyers
Black/death: Behemoth - Pandemonic Incantations
Death: Asphyx - Deathhammer
-Brutal: Torsofuck - Erotic Diarrhea Fantasy
-Melodic: Children of Bodom - Hate Crew Deathroll
-Symphonic: Fleshgod Apocalypse - Labyrinth
Death/thrash: The Crown - Doomsday King
Doom: Candlemass - Ancient Dreams
Drone doom: Sunn O))) - Monoliths & Dimensions
Experimental**: Arkhamin Kirjasto - Torches Ablaze
Folk: Korpiklaani - Ukon Wacka
Funeral doom: Elysian Blaze - Blood Geometry
Gothic: Paradise Lost - Tragic Idol
Grindcore: Repulsion - Horrified
Groove: Pantera - Cowboys from Hell
Heavy: Diamond Head - Lightning to the Nations
-Symphonic: Nightwish - Century Child
Industrial: Turmion Kätilöt - Hoitovirhe
Post: Sólstafir - Köld
Power: Sabaton - Coat of Arms
-Symphonic: Avantasia - The Mystery of Time: A Rock Epic
Progressive: Symphony X - The Divine Wings of Tragedy
Psychedelic: Oranssi Pazuzu - Muukalainen Puhuu
Sludge: Cult of Luna - Cult of Luna
Speed: Blind Guardian - Battalions of Fear
Stoner: Electric Wizard - Dopethrone
Thrash: Kreator - Pleasure to Kill
Viking: Falkenbach - Asa

* umbrella term for genres NOT fitting with the rest of the list.
** I see avant-garde and experimental as different genres while they could be considered as one :p

Okay Cad. Maybe we should just focus on one genre per week so people can actually listen to everyone's nominations and pick their favorite. That way this thread won't get overwhelmed with giant lists :p

Besides, my to-listen list is already massive.

Anorexia Nervousa isn''t even that good. They're a good Emperor clone and that's about it. Speaking of which Cad, you hate symphonic black metal don't you and you picked AN because they sound more like traditional black metal with minimum symphonic audibility? Because WtCSF is much better than Redemption Process.
Speaking of symphonics, what do you select as the best symphonic death metal band/album?

It's bullshit, but mostly because of the magazines/websites that do it. The difference is that this is our own bullshit :p

Epica's Design Your Universe.

I don't consider it pure symphonic death but it has a lot of death elements in it.

Pretty sure Kamelot ain't very folk metal. Pretty sure they're closer to power/symphonic metal. And I'm not a Rammstein fan (As far as I know, since I don't know them that well), and I like Kamelot to some extent.

Though I just looked at Rammstein...they certainly have some interesting stage performances.
