Sign in to disble this ad
after a while with my group, i'm finally osmosing (perhaps) more punk into my system than usual. i need metal that's fast (other than slayer) nowadays. usually i wouldn't complain, but after listening to nothing but the sex pistols, the ramones, the dead kennedys, the offspring, the casualties, and any other name you can think of, this has gone too far. I've even started playing the damn music naturally!
give me some names and recommendations for groups. lately i'm listening to stuff along the lines of carcass grind |

| | | | the new stuff is too touchy feely for me.....killswitch engage, i just wonder how they're so damn big. avenged sevenfold might be ok.
i'm really just into the death metal stuff with blast beats (not for all of the music, for some tho) and strange genre names like "goregrind" and "gore metal". oh, and i've been listening to "cattle decapitation" |

- Chimaira's new album, the self titled one
- anything by Cryptopsy
- The Black Dahlia Murder - Miasma, I just bought this and really dig it.
- Spawn of Possession, this is a really cool technical death metal band that sounds kind of like Cannibal Corpse

Go to cdnow.com, and search for a band that you like. When it comes up, it oftentimes has suggestions and 25 item lists that owners of that album have created.
Might be a start. |

| | | | that's actually a pretty good idea...I think what's really pissing me off is it's not so much as i mind listening to punk, but i'm having problems applying metal riffs to MY OWN music after listening to certain stuff and writing stuff that's similar (or writing with my friend who brings far too much of that influence). but i just hope this is a phase of lack of inspiration i can recover from.
as for metallica, they just got annoying. I had Kill 'em all, justice for all, and st anger, and nothing really stuck out |

But then again, I've already lost my metal.

| | | | since i see i'm already getting posts,i want to point out that lately the metal i'm listening to is upwards of 100-120 bpm (slayer's probably 150bpm). i'm not too big on the breakdown music |

You might wanna check out some Napalm Death too.

At the Gates, In Flames...Fast melodic stuff.
Nile, Suffocation...technical death metal madness.
