To all who read this, especially newer GMC members who weren't here at the birth of this thing, what follows is a list of Metal bands categorized by genre, as of now, it is still incomplete, but as you can see, the Progressive section and my personal recommendations have been updated so that when you click on the band name, you will be directed to there home page or myspace. When finished, ALL bands will have this for there names on the list, unless a link or web page cannot be found for them, and the genres will be further diversified. (Example, Death Metal will be separated into Melodic Death/ Technical Death/ Prog Death ect. ect. )

So bear with me, because separating this list is a very tiresome task, i love metal with all my heart, but i have not heard all these bands, so i must "Investigate" if you will these bands to see where they will fit. Of course, this list would not be possible without the many contributions made my our very own GMC members, too many to name here, but you know who you are!

*UPDATE: November 10, 2007*
--Progressive/ Avant Garde List has been "Linked"
--Metal Reference Website Section added, Courtesy Of Vinicitur

*UPDATE: November 27, 2007*
--Thrash list has been updated with links (incomplete)

Metal Reference Websites:
http://metal-archives.com/
---Probably the biggest archive of metal bands on the net. They have band descriptions, discographies, lyrics, album covers and links to official sites, myspace and fansites of each band.
http://www.metalstorm.ee
---A lot Smaller than metal-archives but has news and interviews. Specializes in underground stuff.
http://metal-rules.com/
---This is more of a commercial site. They deal in more well known acts than the two previous sites. They also have news and reviews.

Posted by: Robin Aug 30 2007, 08:00 PM

Me and rokchik were chatting a little bit yesterday about this. What if we cover all genres we possibly can, and then later make a subforum in the Bands & Artists forum and have one sticky thread for each genre?

Posted by: Robin Aug 30 2007, 08:37 PM

The Uncreator, it seems like the band Hordes(death metal) have changed name to "The Madness Within". Can you edit your list when you get time?

What about bands like

Rammstein
Marilyn Manson
White Zombie/Rob Zombie
Nine Inch Nails
Filter
System of a Down

I didn't see them but I think they are more "industrial" or "Nu" metal. Don't know how many sub genres you may want but I could devise a list of those kinds of bands if you like.

Posted by: Iluha Aug 31 2007, 10:00 AM

You gotta add In Flames to the death metal category!, that's the band that got me off the very restricted world of mainstream music!

hey Uncreator for Behemoth, shoudnt you specify that there later albums ie: Satanica and the albums beyond that are there death metal release or (Blackened) Death Metal

Sventevith and Grom beeing there early Black Metal releases.

Im sure most people here arent anal about that stuff but its good to clear up so people would know the difference between early Behemoth and there later releases.

Awesome list btw. im lookin for bands that you didnt mentioned. Im sure it would tough seeing as how you mentioned most of the bands I listen to.

Progressive/Avante-Garde:

Some mistakes/Suggestions:
Dissection- Arent they Black Metal? Your talking about the Swedish band right?
Red Sparrowes- They are a post-rock band.

Yeah, maybe like a section like "Getting started in Death/ Black/ Power" or whatever genre.

Another great idea!

Posted by: Owen Sep 1 2007, 06:17 PM

Progressive/Death : -
Backmask
Textures

Death -
Graveworm

Black -
Thus Defiled

Folk : -
Alestorm

Should we have a Metalcore section too?

Posted by: Fsgdjv Sep 1 2007, 07:05 PM

Great list!

Allthough, Red Sparrowes shouldn't be on there as VinceG said, they're definetly post rock.

I'd like to add Cult of Luna, Neurosis and Pelican for Doom/Sludge/Stoner/Drone.

And for Progressive you forgot both Novembre and Nahemah, two awesome bands!

1349 is missing from the black metal one, and Mastodon is missing from wherever they fit in

EDIT: Oh, and concerning Dissection, aren't they considered black/death? If we're talking about the swedish band with Jon Nödtveidt as the front man that is.

EDIT again: Oh, and Avatar is missing from the Melodic Death section!

Posted by: chast Sep 1 2007, 07:19 PM

Melodic Death:
Dark Tranquillity

Core with many black/death influences:
Purified in Blood

http://www.myspace.com/dissection - This Dissection band is definatly not black. Sounds like In Flames or something.


http://www.myspace.com/dissectionrip - Here's another one, sounds kinda like Immortal. Sounds sort of like black metal.


http://www.myspace.com/dissection502 - Popular name.


http://www.myspace.com/elianasmuthafuckinmusic


Theres also more. None of it was black metal in my ears. Some of if sort of sounded like black metal though, but I wouldnt really call it black metal bands just becuase of a couple of riffs or because the vocals sounded black.

Well Dunno wich one of these bands to put on the list. I guess The Uncreator will decide

omg how could i forget some of the best prog bands i have ever laid my ears on!

Maudlin of the Well
Kayo Dot

Technically Maudlin of the Well departed from each other and some members formed Kayo Dot. Most same members, different music.

Calling Maudlin Of The Well a prog band is not a very good description. There music can go from pop music melody, jazz music passages to doomish death metal. Its really fascinating when they combine all this elemnets into one song. Masterfully mindblowing expirience. They sometimes call there music Astral or so i have heard. I highly recomend them.

Posted by: The Uncreator Sep 5 2007, 07:13 PM

Posted by: Bizo Oct 15 2007, 07:27 PM

Nice list you have going, Someone already mentioned it but you should put In Flames up on the list under thrash, or melodic thrash. as well throw the band Soilwork on there as well. Another band I didnt see was Exhorder.

In Flames are melodic death, as are Soilwork, if Exhorder arent up already then they qualify as thrash.

Posted by: VinceG Oct 16 2007, 03:32 AM

Maybe as a next project for the list, we should label them accoringly to the rightful called genre. Like for example Behemoth next to there name early work Black Metal later works Blackened Death Metal. Maybe something simpler like not just calling bands death, thrash, or black but more like saying there exact like pagan black, viking, nsbm, blackened doom, folk etc.

I dont know im just rambling on feel free to ignore it. I figured it would be hard for someone to see the difference of Vital Remains to Dark Tranquility or something if we both just put them in the list Death Metal.

Posted by: Willy Oct 16 2007, 05:10 AM

In my opinion, Nightwish is a symphonic metal band, or am I wrong?

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Oct 19 2007, 10:18 PM

Add Allan Holdsworth to jazz, he is an amazing guitarist.

Also here is a website full of music lists and you may find this a great site to find music you have never heard before.

Yeah, a bit more detailed wouldn't hurt like for instance dividing melodic death with death since the genres basically don't have anything in common, etc. However, going into details like pagan black, nsbm (seriously, are there any good nsbm bands?) etc might get too much for the Uncreator, he's a human after all.

You might want to add Baroness to the Sludge section, they're an interesting band that sorta mix thrashy vocals with progressive style melodies and choruses.

Their frontman also did the designs for the latest Darkest Hour, Pig Destroyer and Skeletonwitch covers, his art is well worth checking out if you have the time

Posted by: Fsgdjv Oct 21 2007, 07:58 AM

VinceG: Pfft, Burzum is not nsbm, he's just "misunderstood" (aka loves to piss people off and and attention wh**e, but that's not enough to call it nsbm imo).

This list is just a big pile of words without at least some kind of description of what the band sounds like. I'm certainly not going to check some band out I've heard the name of and nothing else.

Posted by: The Uncreator Oct 26 2007, 03:56 AM

Feel free to help out and make an individual descripton for each band, or even just the genres.

Posted by: KRmachine Oct 26 2007, 05:22 AM

Maybe if I find myself with a lot of spare time, not right now though.

That said, it doesn't need to be anything fancy, just making the band name a link that goes to their myspace or equivalent where you can hear them would go a long way, and wouldn't take that much time.

Posted by: The Uncreator Oct 27 2007, 07:44 AM

Do you mean from every band? that would take a few weeks!

Posted by: VinceG Oct 27 2007, 08:12 AM

Nah, we dont need to do that much work. Specific genre is all you need to attract someone really. If your interested in hearing the band then it should be your responsibility to find out more about the band. We cant spoon feed you.

Is it just me or is Katatonia missing from that doom list? (Maybe they have been missing all along? O.o) Anyways, their old stuff is doom/death, and the rest is just some kind of depressive rock, so doom/death I guess. And Anathema is also missing, same goes for them, their old stuff is doom/death and new stuff is some kind of atmospheric rock

Posted by: VinceG Oct 28 2007, 05:51 AM

doom wasnt my preference. I just searched all this in MA, copy and paste. Although yes Katatonia should have been here.

Posted by: Fsgdjv Oct 28 2007, 06:14 AM

I guessed you copy pasted, it was more pointed towards the general list I guess.

Posted by: The Uncreator Oct 28 2007, 09:23 AM

Posted by: steve25 Oct 31 2007, 06:09 AM

seems like a pretty good idea for general band ideas however i agree that melodic death and death metal should be separated. But if someone was to want an actual recommendation for them perhaps they could make a new post, say what they're into and what bands they know and ask for recommendations depending on what genre they want

Posted by: exorcyze Oct 31 2007, 07:34 AM

Just watched that video for Eluveitie - that's some cool stuff! Imma have to get that. =)

Posted by: The Uncreator Oct 31 2007, 08:25 AM

I will start to work on separating melodic death from death, and then gradually the other genres.

Posted by: Aarggh Nov 6 2007, 01:41 PM

there's a canadian one called Kataklysm. an american one called DevilDriver.
saw them both with Unearth and Dimmu Borgir back in May. Wicked show!
(note: I wanted to say effin' wicked show but have noticed no other foul language so I must check the forum rules...)

Just let me know what you think first since this is your thread.

Posted by: The Uncreator Nov 10 2007, 08:19 AM

Well, im almost done with the Death/Melodic death separation, any other genre you feel you can further diversify or further add information too, feel free, PM me the fina list or post it here.

Posted by: Vinicitur Nov 10 2007, 05:58 PM

I've noticed that some of the people have been asking for more descriptions for the bands.

I think that would be pretty long to do so I will add some links here of websites that already have the descriptions and related stuff.

http://metal-archives.com

Probably the biggest archive of metal bands on the net. They have band descriptions, discographies, lyrics, album covers and links to official sites, myspace and fansites of each band.


http://www.metalstorm.ee/home/index.php

A lot Smaller than metal-archives but has news and interviews. Specializes in underground stuff.


http://metal-rules.com/

This is more of a commercial site. They deal in more well known acts than the two previous sites. They also have news and reviews.


I'm actually looking for some new bands to listen to so I'm slowly going through the entire list using these sites (especially metal-archives).

Hope this helps

Posted by: VinceG Nov 11 2007, 08:59 AM

everyone knows the archives. Vinicitur are you in there forum?

Posted by: Anastasio123 Nov 11 2007, 09:31 AM

You should put Protest the Hero in either thrash or progressive. Mastodon could go in either of those categories too.

Nice work though, this thing shows you A LOT of bands to check out.

Posted by: The Uncreator Nov 11 2007, 11:05 AM

Ok people, i have made all the band names under Progressive links to there web page, i will probably do death metal or power metal next, since those two are the biggest.

Its been awhile since ive been on there, i remember there were like a minimum of 10 flame wars a day

Posted by: Vinicitur Nov 11 2007, 12:52 PM

Yeah usually it starts with "Why isn't Band X in the archive?"

Posted by: The Uncreator Nov 11 2007, 12:54 PM

Yeah, im trying to avoid that here, and try to get as many bands as i can get in here, in the proper category, where no one is displeased, but that might be impossible.

I guess i gotta try it though

Posted by: Vinicitur Nov 11 2007, 01:06 PM

I think if people accept that every metal fan will have their own definition of Metal it should be alright.

Just realized I dont see Therion anywhere? Or maybe I am just blind?

I'd also like to add a band to the list. Haggard it a classical/symphonic metal band. Here's the link to their myspace site.

In the thrash list you have a band called "suicidan tendencies". Shouldn't it be "suicidal tendencies"?

Warrant (Ger)- Speed/Thrash Metal

Great band nonetheless. Robin and Uncreator, you guys should listen to em, I have a feeling you might like it.

Posted by: shellshock1911 Nov 30 2007, 01:06 PM

Cradle of Filth needs to be on here, I can't stress how awesome their new album is, Thornography. Paul Allender is like one of the best riffmakers ever. I genre though is pretty disputed but I would say it is gothic metal.

I don't think this has been mentioned. The EssenEss Project.

This band here...http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=170380321

Check them out, they are called Meanstreak. What's awesome about them is they are all girls, and 3 of them are John Petrucci's, Mike Portnoy's and John Myung's wives.

Pretty sick.

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Dec 12 2007, 01:18 AM

You don't have Children Of Bodom on the list.

Posted by: The Uncreator Dec 12 2007, 01:27 AM

Nice list... And really long
Thanks! I'm a metalhead, and this really helps me!
But shouldn't Gaate be in Folk Metal? And Amon Amarth in Viking?

Posted by: The Uncreator Dec 30 2007, 01:22 PM

Actually, Amon Amarth is "Viking Themed Melodic Death Metal" (long story)

But thats how they see themselves.

Fixed the Gaate thing

Amon Amarth is amazing! ive just rescently discovered Gojira who is an amazing band and Final Plague who is also very good(except i think they broke up)

A Couple of Others ive rescently discovered (Dunno if they've been mentioned before)
Five Finger Death Punch
Artillery
August Burns Red
Belphegor
Blood Simple
Bloodbath

Posted by: Fsgdjv Dec 30 2007, 10:49 PM

Oh yeah, bloodbath are amazing. Definetly one of my favourite bands, and their new record will kick ass, and it looks like Åkerfeldt will be back on the vocals, so that's great news, even though Tätgren also was amazing..

Posted by: Toni Suominen Dec 30 2007, 11:12 PM

Bloodbath and Amon Amarth both are great bands, I just have to see them both live someday!

Posted by: Philippe Dec 31 2007, 06:25 AM

Small mistake: Suicidan tendencies -> Suicidal Tendencies

Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Jan 27 2008, 06:29 PM

You missed Electric Wizard from Doom

Posted by: OrganisedConfusion Jan 27 2008, 07:25 PM

Also Decrepit Birth, Odious Mortem and Gory Blister in Death Metal

Posted by: Melvyn Jan 29 2008, 12:51 AM

I'd suggest (if you havent already)

Arthemis
Circus Maximus
Kamelot
Turisas
Bloodbound
Pain of Salvation

amongst my list of Metal Gems

Novembers Doom (doom/death) still aren't on the list, and nether are Memfis (progressive something). And I just also realised that ******** aren't on there, something that needs to be fixed! (even though they aren't good, they can still be incredibly fun)

Edited for language, The Uncreator

Posted by: The Uncreator Feb 18 2008, 11:49 PM

Well, i dont think i can add that band that i asteriks out, Ive done my best to keep the worst names of the list, and thats one of them

Posted by: Fsgdjv Mar 4 2008, 03:01 PM

Hmm, Aeon and Evocation aren't on the list. Both are Death Metal

Sorry if these guys have been mentioned before, Sex Machineguns is a VERY good japanese speed/thrash metal band ive listened to them for years now (came across them on the internet, still not tired of their stuff), a couople of my favorite songs by them are Tekken II, Illusion City, and ZERO (since you said you needed to investigate them to make sure of where they go)

Posted by: VinceG Apr 22 2008, 11:02 AM

The Showdown is a complete Pantera ripoff, even down to the guitars.

Honestly, they would be more acceptable if they become more than just a cover band.

I don't know if this thread is getting updated or not, but I just noticed that the best black metal band in the world right now, Wolves in the Thone Room are missing from the list.

(Yes they are and if you don't agree it means your taste is flawed, nothing else. )

Hi guys... Im new, i know... If you really like metal, check out a dude os Sirius Hard Attack (now liquid metal) named Ian Christe.. He wrote a book called "sound of the beast" all about heavy metal... its really good... anyway, Meshuggah is not on here, and they are really good.. I would say the progressive/avant garde section... I really think that they at least deserve to be on here.. But everything looks really good i think.. It seems to all be in order, and i dont think that there is anyway were ever going to get EVERY band on here...

To all who read this, especially newer GMC members who weren't here at the birth of this thing, what follows is a list of Metal bands categorized by genre, as of now, it is still incomplete, but as you can see, the Progressive section and my personal recommendations have been updated so that when you click on the band name, you will be directed to there home page or myspace. When finished, ALL bands will have this for there names on the list, unless a link or web page cannot be found for them, and the genres will be further diversified. (Example, Death Metal will be separated into Melodic Death/ Technical Death/ Prog Death ect. ect. )

So bear with me, because separating this list is a very tiresome task, i love metal with all my heart, but i have not heard all these bands, so i must "Investigate" if you will these bands to see where they will fit. Of course, this list would not be possible without the many contributions made my our very own GMC members, too many to name here, but you know who you are!

yeah, nice for you to quote all of that, but anyway this list hasn't been updated in over a year so yeah, I dont think we'll ever "finish" this list. Not that its possible anyway.

Wow, I checked out the "Encyclopediae Metallum" (Metal Archives), and it's absolutely mind-blowing how much content there is !

Posted by: Karl-ss Apr 28 2009, 07:11 PM

Man You forgot alternative Metal Like, Drowning Pool, Disturbed, Otep and such! And groove metal Like Machine Head, Pantera, Five Finger Death Punch and Lamb of God

I noted that Scar Symmetry is not listed and you are missing a whole different Universe. Check out any of their 3 cds. Personally, I recommend their last Masterpiece, Holographic Universe. I'm not able to describe the band. Just listen to them..........

Basically, since we got the wikipedia going, I really dont see any further use for this. I dont have any time to do this anymore at all. So I'm going to close the thread.
