Damn, I missed a boris show the day before I saw Explosions in the SKy last month. They played at the same vendue the day before and I somehow managed to miss it. I'm still so bummed out about it, because they aren't that often in sweden. Same for a pelican show that I couldn't afford going to.

Anyways, I also absolutely love Cult of Luna, Isis, Neurosis, Pelican, etc.

Posted by: Duncan May 31 2008, 12:40 PM

Oh my god I love Tyr, they are too awesome! laugh.gif

Posted by: VinceG Jun 9 2008, 03:47 PM

TYR is great. Land is a great album!

There music is a little ehrm boring live though. I guess its great on some level, but Eluveite is a hard act to follow.

Oh yea, if you like folk metal with tons of folk instruments in it, listen to Eluveite!

Posted by: The Uncreator Jun 9 2008, 11:47 PM

Eluveite is great!

Also check out Folkearth! smile.gif

Posted by: The Farmer Jun 14 2008, 10:04 PM

He he i really cant remember how they are live, last time i saw them live was in 2001 before they got "big" and then they were somewhat quite good. anyway i forgot to mention bruce dickinsons solo albums as favorite music. i would suggest the uncreator to check them out espesialy chemical wedding and tyrrany of souls thats how i got to know william blake but you probably know these albums happy.gif
Stay heavy guy \m/ wink.gif

Posted by: The Uncreator Jun 14 2008, 10:20 PM

Haha yeah, I own all of Bruces solo albums, Accident Of Birth, Chemical Wedding, and Tyranny Of Souls are brilliant cool.gif

Posted by: blindwillie Jun 17 2008, 06:49 AM

At the moment it is Volbeat and Bullet For My Valentine.
And Fatal Charm but I guess that's not metal really.

Mmmmmmmm apart from the classics.
Right now I'm on:

Dream Theater
Circus Maximus
Simphony X

Posted by: rokchik Jun 22 2008, 01:06 AM

Well I am not as well versed in metal as some but I did grow up in the 80's so bands like Sabbath, Priest, Maiden Metallica, Anthrax, Megadeath would be at the top of any metal list for me... also I am a product of Glam metal so I do have a soft spot for bands like Poison, Cinderella, White Lion etc. but don't hold that against me wink.gif

But since I have joined GMC I must say I have found a few metal bands that I really enjoy. Tops for me now would be Children of Bodom, Iced Earth, Nightwish, BFMV and Opeth.

PS: @Praetorian - The Dropkick Murphy's are AWESOME!!!!!! One of the best Celtic Punk bands since the Pogues. Nice to see another fan smile.gif

Posted by: swingline Jun 22 2008, 01:14 AM
