I've been getting into some Pain of Salvation recently picked up their album The Perfect Element Part 1, amazing progressive metal, just a very talented band, what makes them even more interesting is that every album they have made are all concept albums and not silly concepts but based on real things like childhood, love, war, and other ideas, ranks up there with Dream Theater and Symphony X imo.

The new Negura Bunget album (OM) is great too bad it's so short

I just borrowed a bunch of CDs from one of my friends, some of them that I can remember are Seether's "Karma and Effect" Dope's "American Apathy" and Spineshank's "The Height of Callousness".

Seether is actually quite good...

[chainsoar]

Dope? *groan* Spineshank ain't that great either. Dunno about Seether. I think they're screamo/hardcore, though, not metal.

Seether is the closest thing to emo that I like so far...and the one song that i've heard from Spineshank is awesome! (New Disease).

Why does everybody hate Dope? They're not the worst band in the world...

[Shunk Eat Enemy]

Seether is most deafinitely not screamo, i have no clue where you got that idea but i dont listen to them at all anyway.
Spineshank, Ive heard 3 songs, smothered (very good IMO), Begining of the End (also great) and New Disease which sounds like mushed up noises and crap.

Dope? *shudders* i just cant stand rap elements and heavy metal, besides i cant even relate to there lyrics...
i mean F**K the police? wow...

Anyone heard of Shine Down? I cant stand them, but all my freinds are raving about them sorta. I saw them live. There singer is absolutely obnoxious with the way he drags everything out.

Come on now, you have to at least admit that "Bitch" is cool!

Seether are an awesome band, but they are neither metal, hardcore, emo, or screamo, they're a post-grunge band haha. I thought everyone knew that.


Recently I've been listening to some Ataraxie, Raventhrone and Via Mistica stuff. All good bands Ataraxie are a French doom/death metal band, Raventhrone are epic black/gothic metal and Via Mistica are gothic metal.

This thread seems to have died somehow! Talk people :P

Going to see Opeth + Paradise Lost next week, kinda looking forward to that

I downloaded "Beast and the Harlot" by Avenged Sevenfold and I love the riff at the beginning...but the vocals make me lose respect for that band entirely. Rule number one of metal: you do NOT put in soft vocals at innapropriate times.
