Neowin Metal Club

I dont remember if i've mentioned 'Silent Civilian' in this 95pg thread yet, but if you havent heard them you need to check them out. The lead vocalist is Johnny Santos from Spineshank :punk: I saw them here in Cleveland last Weds and they were fantastic!

I'm going to see Trivium tonight at the same venue... should be a great show! Trivium kinda sold out i think, but i still like them. They put on great shows and i look forward to hearing some of their older stuff. Newer stuff i dont really care about anymore.

guys what is the difference between alternative and metal, PM as an answer, not because of anything but because i cant keep track of this thread :p

You mean alternative as nu metal, which is not metal, just radio friendly crap!

Korn, slipknot, linkin park, limp bizkit, kid rock, names that spring to mind. no talent what so ever!

[EduardValencia]

I have all Metallica CD's,am i qualified to join? :)

And some Dream Theater CD's

[Dashel]

So what does everyone think of the new MegaDeth? I was pleasantly surprised. Can't wait to see them this fall.

You can stream the first six songs off the main site. Sleepwalker is just a good old thrashy jam and Washington/Gears shows Dave can still put some growl into it. \m/

Has anyone else heard of The Lovecrave? I heard a track on totalrock.com and litterally bought the album based on that one hearing:

http://www.myspace.com/thelovecrave

It's pretty different, especially vocally, but I'm utterly addicted. 'Can You Hear Me' makes me want to scream my lungs out (mmmm inflames).

(I'm guessing it's probably not strictly metal, but that doesn't mean you can't love it!)

Also, an acoustic live session from totalrock: http://www.totalrock.com/podcast/LoveCrave.mp3

Where can I hear this new inflames track you speak of? :D :D

[Orange]

Megadeth was released ages ago, new album :p

[Dashel]

Hehe, I know. I'm behind the times. I saw they were coming in town and it made me go and check. Slipped right by me. Unless there is a newer one out I'm still not privy to. ;)

[Orange]

Hehe, their newest one is United Abominations which was released May 15th in USA

Recently gotten back into some Drawn and Quartered albums. I haven't heard their newest offering, Merciless Hammer of Lucifer, but it's on my "to listen to" list.

[Orange]

A few albums and i know Stncttr908 wont like :p

As I Lay Dying - An Ocean Between Us - better then their last album, alot faster but still metalcore (they claimed this album wasn't metalcore)

Through The Eyes Of The Dead - Malice - Brilliant album! Much better produced then their last album.

Arch Enemy - Rise Of The Tyrant - Hard to say i'm 50/50 on this one, I've listened to it twice now but still not sticking in my head. Only a few songs on the album i really like.. maybe it grow on me :p

Best one so far has to be Nuclear Blast Allstars - Out Of The Dark

Heard the new Black Dahlia Murder track and I can't wait till the new album comes out. I've also been listening to the new BTBAM album and it's incredible. Alot more progressive than their last albums but it's hella good.

[Jason S. Global Moderator]

the new As I Lay Dying album is pretty awesome. (Y)

I cannot friggin wait for the new BDM album! that new song is wicked :devil:

[Orange]

Just listened to that new BDM track, def better then there older stuff :D

[Ultomato]

anyone listen to Warface? necrophagist? Animosity!!

[Metropolis2112]

Necrophagist destroys both in studio and live!!! Love it! Marco Minnemann is my new personal deity!! Animosity is pretty cool too-

New BDM track is sick, Loving the new BTBAM and new Aeon albums, and definitely the Nuclear Blast Allstars ..Dark album are kickin my ass these days.....

Bump for the Metal thread \m/

[Kreuger]

Arch Enemy - Rise Of The Tyrant - Hard to say i'm 50/50 on this one, I've listened to it twice now but still not sticking in my head. Only a few songs on the album i really like.. maybe it grow on me tongue.gif

Have you heard the same cd I have? It kicks major butt! :p

[GFM]

I just checked out the new Atreyu album. I gotta say it's pretty good but it's alot different than their last albums. Not too metal, alot more rock oriented. Seems as though they are taking the Trivium approach and dropping the screams for singing. If I had to say anything about this band, it would have to be that they seem to be bringing back glam metal, with their catchy riffs, and lyrics, and slamming a few solos into their songs. Not too bad of an album.

i heard two more tracks from the new BDM album and this albums is gonna kick ass. So far it's alot better than their other albums. Started listening to At The Throne Of Judgement. Pretty good deathcore outfit, similar to As blood Runs Black, but more technical riffs and solos. Worth a listen.

And I'm still lovin' BTBAM's new album.

[mlauzon76]

Well, here are the four current metal bands I like in no particular order, I have linked to all their Official sites:

Nightwish:

http://www.nightwish.com/

http://myspace.com/nightwish/

Falconer:

http://www.falconermusic.com/

http://myspace.com/falconermusic/

DragonForce:

http://dragonforce.com/

http://myspace.com/dragonforce/

Power Quest:

http://www.power-quest.co.uk/

http://www.myspace.com/powerquest/

I also like a lot of the '80s metal bands as well, although it tends to surprise a lot of people that I like metal because I am a minority and people tend to think well you're this so you have to like Rap. Yes, I like rap...but only the stuff that came out of the '80s when I was a child; hell I love '80s music in general!

[ck2k01]

I've been listening to:

All Shall Perish - Price of Existence (AMAZING!)

August Burns Red - Messengers

Beneath the Sky - What Demons Do to Saints

Despised Icon - The Ills of Modern Man (AMAZING!)

Ion Dissonance - Solace/Minus the Herd

Job For A Cowboy - Doom (Didn't really like their new album)

The Showdown - Temptation Come My Way (AMAZING SOUTHER ROCK ALBUM!)

Throwdown - Venom and Tears (Not too sure about this one, trying to see if it'll grown on me. Its VERY Pantera esque, and a pretty dramatic departure from their previous releases)

[Demersynth]

metal sucks go metalcore or hardcore listen to bleeding through or minor threat or converge or man of the other good bands

Dude, you are retarded. You realize metalcore and hardcore have metal roots? By saying metal sucks, you just contradicted yourself. Why the **** would it be called metalcore? Lol, you ****ing 13 year old scene kids make me laugh. Go listen to Bullet For My Valentine and the rest of those trendy 'metalXcore' bands that are cool this week.

[Orange]

Na sorry but bullet for my crap emo is not even metal, EMO in my view. Hate that genre just like fake metal stuff.

[Toxikk Veteran]

the new album from the band "through the eyes of the dead" is mega hardcore. really into that one at the moment.

[Orange]

More like METAL!! well deathcore. Much better then there last album. Every song is killer.

Song 1 and 5 are stand out ones for me.

[apul]

Na sorry but bullet for my crap emo is not even metal, EMO in my view. Hate that genre just like fake metal stuff.

Ahaha plus they did cover Metallica in kerrang!, just like lostprophets did with Davidian's Machine Head and a bunch of emo band. Pathetic.

Fake metal, 'nuff said.
