Metal Genre Music Discussion - Vol. 4

I was randomly going through one of the What Are You Listening To Right Now threads when I came across this comment:

Primordial - "No Nation On This Earth"

Quickly becoming one of my favorite metal albums of all time.

by Cosumar

And what am I gonna say right now? Well...

The more I listen to Primordial the better they become. Soon they're probably one of my top 5 or at least top 10 metal bands of all times.

I can already say that the lyrics of Bloodied Yet Unbowed are going to be on my grave stone. If not, I'm gonna haunt everyone I've ever known

[The Imperial Reach]

Ugh, Sabaton hurry up and put Bismarck on Spotify.

I neeeeeed it.

[Cadonica]

Ugh, Sabaton hurry up and put Bismarck on Spotify.

I neeeeeed it.

Pretty much their best song in 5 years, if only Soldier of 3 Armies and Far from the Fame didn't exist.

[Sunstruck]

No new albums this year have impressed me at all, but I've only listened to 6 or 7 new albums. I'm slow, yeah.

[Andsed]

Soilders of three armies and far from the fame? That is a weird way to spell lifetime of war.

You'll want some real war metal for that. You'll want Bolt Thrower.

Just listened to some of their music. TBH not a major fan. While it is not bad I don´t really enjoy death metal.

I do.

Some of Death I like, but I like Sepultura.

And this will get weirder but I like Low-Demonic-The Gathering era Testament where they experimented with death metal.

Chuck Billy sounded amazing on those albums.

Hey, half of the songs on The Last Stand were great.

Though I will say that in my opinion Bismarck is by far one of their best songs ever, which is precisely why my metal playlist will be forever incomplete without it.

This makes me happy

Now I just need to turn you on to Summoning and Reign In Blood...

I like it too, but goddamn if this isn't some hyperbole porn lol

TBH I just think death metal is just not my cup of tea. I am sure there is some good stuff out there I just more prefer stuff like power metal.

In that case, you may enjoy Scar Symmetry. Catchy, melodic power metal style choruses with growled but understandable verses (and occasionally some prog-shred sessions in between).

It was a typo. I meant their not the.

That.... makes much more sense

Cliffs of Gallipoli is still my fave tho

Thanks! I just checked them out and their music and is very nice.

Lifetime of War is definitely the one I like best. Especially the Swedish version. Though Gallipoli was also pretty damm good.

Do you like Judas Priest?

I think I know where this is going.

Glad you liked! Pretty much everything they've come out with has been stellar. Per Nilsson is easily one of my favorite guitarists and the most impressive I have seen live. They're currently in the middle of a dystopian sci-fi concept album trilogy. Part I came out in 2014 and was brilliant, but I'm beginning to wander if the rest will ever be completed.

Metal Gods. \m/

[Sunstruck]

I used to prefer power and symphonic metal over anything else, too.
Then I found a video of Count Blagorath fangasming over Agalloch, and wow, that was a moment for me.

Very mixed opinions on this subject on this thread.

So were Venom, and most people don't like Venom.
Judas Priest, influential? That they were. Fun songs? Sure.

Venom is responsible for the advent of three metal genres haha

Venom is one of my all time favorite bands but that's just overblowing it. Were they an influence on those three genres? Sure. Were they singlehandedly responsible for them? Absolutely not.

wrong.. actually Sarcofago is what really started black metal. They took inspiration from Venom, yes, but Sarcofago further developed black metal and in turn, influenced the Scandinavian black metal bands we all know too well today.
