+2 to Opeth

Posted by: Robin Sep 25 2007, 06:55 PM

I am a 100% sure that you will like these bands(judging from the bands you listed):

Saxon
Uriah Heep(old)
Witchcraft
The Stranglers
Pentagram(US)
Nazareth(old)

Johnny Winter also got some awesome Rock'n'roll albums.

If you like growling you should check out Darkthrone's two latest albums: The Cult is Alive and F**k Off and Die. Its black punkrock

I'll update if I can think of more.

one vote for Jane's Addiction (Strays or Ritual de lo habitual) and other for Opeth's Damnation.

+1 on Janes Addiction

I'd also like to add Audioslave as you mentioned you like RATM and Muse just cause they are awesome.

Posted by: fkalich Sep 25 2007, 10:18 PM

Considering the list he gave, sort of like offering a carrot to a cat.

Jane's addiction is a good suggestion.

edit: by that statement, I mean no disrespect to carrots.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Sep 25 2007, 11:39 PM

Hey! I'm reading more votes to Jane's addiction! It was a great rock band!

Here is a link of one of my favourite songs.. three days played live with flea (RHCP) in bass. They rock too much.

had not seen that, absolutely excellent in my book.

Posted by: Owen Sep 26 2007, 02:30 AM

I second Nazereth, good rock band.

Posted by: VinceG Sep 26 2007, 09:25 AM

kinda made me laugh but which "Pentagram" are you talking about? Theres one in Sweden, US, Chile, Mexico.

But as for recomendation, Im not gonna recomend you bands along the line of your initial list... im recomending great bands and inovators of certain genre. Mainly in the metal scene. Mostly old.

Boris- Hmm, I always recomend them to people. There like psychadelic, stoner, drone. Ehh hard to explain but the music is too good if you can appreciate it.

D.R.I.- Thrash Crossover band. Great band to get into if you want to explore more on thrash metal. They were considered influences of the big 4 mainly Slayer.

Heathen- The bands a legend in bay area because of how heavy yet melodic there thrash is. Great part about the band is that there whole 2 disco Breaking The Silence and Victims of Deception is free of download in there website. http://www.heathenmetal.com/index2.html

Maudlin Of The Well- One of the most fresh and innovative band I have ever heard in my life. They play progressive astral metal. They have a wide range of different genres like jazz, pop, doom/death metal and its really amazing hearing all those combinations together. They also use more than 10 different instruments when there initially making an album.

Primus- Ehh weird, funny music. There fun to listen to, there songs are real catchy and all the instruments seem to work together. Claypool's voice is hard to get into if your not into that kinda stuff but both bass and guitar work area really well done.

Rush- prog rock band that innovates music in the 70's w/ there long song passages and articulate song structures.

Sepultura- Want some thrash metal in your life? Get there album Beneath The Remains and Arise. Its just riff driven album that will keep you headbanging. Stay away from any album after Chaos A.D.

ehh thats all I could think of that you might like. Enjoy anyway.

Where is Buckethead!? lol sorry how about some Blue Oyster Cult, old school stuff! pretty rad!

Posted by: Eat-Sleep-andJam Sep 26 2007, 10:44 AM

You might really like Guns n Roses or Velvet Revolver , im suprised GnR is not on that list
Based on the other bands I saw Id recomend those 2 , great guitar and motivational lyrics and also try some Boston !

I was talking about the band from the 70's, very similar to Black Sabbath.
They are from USA.

Posted by: Hungus Sep 26 2007, 10:59 PM

You have obviously not heard enough Opeth

Posted by: fkalich Oct 6 2007, 01:11 PM

I assure you that I have.



Back to the thread. I am sort of out of it, killed my tv sometime ago, but heard of this band recently. They are pretty popular, I really do like their songs.


The Killers

Have you listened to their album damnation. I would hardly call that offering a carrot to a cat considering the list he gave. Even Gabriel recomended it...

Posted by: fkalich Oct 6 2007, 02:43 PM

i'll give it another try Hungus, thanks for suggestion. however with a title damnation, it would surprise me, I tend to like happy music, optimistic music. if not happy, "After all, tomorrow is another day!" music. but I will give it a try.

Posted by: Hungus Oct 6 2007, 02:49 PM

Haha fair enough..... it is a really mellow album but it is still pretty dark though but it does have a hint of optimisim in it. I find it can both make me happy or make me feel depressed depending on my mood.



P.S. I probably wouldnt bother with any of the other albums execpt damnation though because I dont think you will apreciate those as they are mostly quite heavy.
'

Edit
Dont listen to the song "Weakness" either, its extremely depressing lol

Posted by: Soul_Decision Oct 6 2007, 03:00 PM

You should listen to the album Start Something by Lostprophets. It's a really good cd!

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Oct 19 2007, 10:11 PM

and DREAM THEATER!
