:o That's great :) I've not listened to much Opeth for a while...

Been listening to loads of In Flames recently though... it really makes me want to see them in concert again.

In Flames are amazing :D Well there newer stuff anyway, I'm a sucker for melodic metal, just listen to Alias for example, pure epicness :p

Going to see them in November with KsE, how are they live?

both In Flames and KSE are amazing in concert. KSE just has fun on stage... they dont try to impress anyone.

I disagree. Their newer stuff, especially the 2008 album, is quite terrible. Their older stuff is where it's at for them.

Some good melodic death metal would be In Flames, Dark Tranquility, Soilwork, At The Gates. I've never thought of TBDM as melodic death metal though.

I've been listening to a bit of DT, Soilwork and At the Gates. good stuff, but nothing that really grips me. im tired of In Flames, tbh... all their newer stuff just blends together.

See, i never thought of In Flames as melodic death metal... melodic, yes, but death? i dont think so... as for TBDM, theyre melodic and they talk about death all the time :happy:

am i confusing the definition or something?

I love the newest album, Sense of Purpose and Come Clarity I can listen to start to finish and love every song on both, I tried listening to their older stuff but there's just not enough catchy hooks or anything you can really remember or sing too. That's just my opinion though, the older albums are too death metal for me.

Well, this sucks turns out KISS is going to be in Toronto the same time as DragonForce, however tickets go on sale this Saturday and will most likely sell out the same day and I don't have the money for tickets to see KISS, so I will have to go see DragonForce as I get money at the end of the month. :(

Any Opeth fans wanna recommend some albums for me to pick up? I have about 15 tracks that I bought, but I would like to check out some full albums. I definitely want to pick up Blackwater Park, but not sure of which other ones I should get first. Any recommendations?

I'd say

My Arms, your hearse & Still life if your picking up blackwater park.

I was thinking about My Arms, Your Hearse because I love Demon of the Fall....I'll pick up those three for now. Thanks. :beer:

Still Life is their best album, so get that for sure. My Arms, Your Hearse is great. The newest one, Watershed is awesome too. Really it doesn't matter what you get 1st, as you're sure to get all of their albums anyway :p. Seriously, every single one is a masterpiece.

That's right, but if I had to get someone into Opeth I'd probably say Deliverance. And My Arms, your Hearse for Demon of The Fall!

Thanks for the input. I plan on getting Watershed as well, heard some good things about that one.

Looks like I should just go ahead and pick up them all. :p Demon of the Fall FTW for sure.

The Metal Club seems to come to the front page every few months or so, so I'm gonna try to keep it here for now...

I was listening to some Amon Amarth while I was driving tonight, and thought it might be interesting to see what everyone's favorite metal songs are? Maybe a top 3-5. I like browsing this thread to find some new bands to check out, so this may generate some interest for other bands....

Guess I'll start (hopefully I'll get some replies :p)

1. Slayer - Raining Blood

2. Amon Amarth - Death in Fire

3. Metallica - Master of Puppets

4. Pantera - Walk

5. Black Sabbath - Iron Man

I probably have left off a couple that could have made the top 5, but this is off the top of my head...

Hey folks please check this new band from our country (Dominican Republic), please leave a message if you like it or not.

The band is called Ad bestia and this is they're first single.

Enjoy it

Trying to keep this on the front page - after all, a Breaking Benjamin thread stays there...ugh.

Wanted to spread the love for CC - if anyone needs introduction...the best death metal band ever =

    • Limited time Prime Day deal cuts price of this Hisense 65" 4K smart TV in half by Ivan Jenic It’s Amazon Prime Day, and brands are offering great deals to consumers. One of the best deals of the day is definitely this Hisense 65" U7, which is currently $799.99 on Amazon, down from $1,499.99. That's nearly 50% off and $700 saved on this feature-packed 4K TV (purchase link down below). The U7 uses Mini-LED backlighting with up to 3,000 local dimming zones and up to 3,000 nits of peak brightness. That means blacks are truly deep and highlights are punchy enough to hold up even in bright rooms. The screen is covered with a dual-layer anti-reflection coating, which prevents the afternoon overhead lights from washing the picture. For gaming, the native 165Hz refresh rate and VRR 330 support make this one a great TV option for PS5 and Xbox Series X. The TV even features a native game mode, which should help minimize the input lag for a better gaming experience. Audio is handled by a 2.1.2 channel system tuned by Devialet, which is a notable partnership for a TV at this price. Additionally, Dolby Vision IQ, Dolby Atmos, and IMAX Enhanced are all supported. It runs Fire TV with Alexa+ built in. So, if you’re looking for a sharp, large screen to watch the World Cup on, the U7 at this price is definitely an attractive option. Speaking of which, Hisense is the official sponsor of the World Cup, which should mean absolutely nothing to you, and isn’t the reason why you should by this TV. The reason why you should buy it is that it’s “la bella televisione, HDTV-compatible, beautiful,” and available at half the price. Hisense 65" U7 Mini-LED 4K Smart Fire TV - $799.99 | 47% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified. We only use first-party seller links (at the time of article publishing); ensure that you purchase from a first-party seller link only. Check out Today's Deals on Amazon | or our recent tech deals.

    • Re: Capitalism. It's just 1 of dozens of economic models currently-adopted worldwide; most national models separate money from politics thereby limiting the influence wealth carries over the economy (due to limited tentacles wealth politics has over the broader economy). The "American model" of unfettered financial influence should NOT be the variant of pure capitalism adopted worldwide. More regulations formulated within this variant is effectively useless due to the misalignment between regulatory objectives and fundamental influence wealth politics carry over the market. Re: enough money. Without constraining the breadth/depth/scope/scale that any measure of money/wealth can have within a market, there will always inherently be those who have "enough money" and those who do not. Those without "enough money" will always lose -- regardless if a bedroom DJ, indie developer, or million-dollar corporation going against a billion-dollar mega-corporation. The evil is the absence of guardrails against the influence of wealth; not the mere existence of wealth. Re: dragged through the courts. The liberalist nature of litigation does not exclude anyone, anywhere, for any reason for getting dragged through the courts. Rather than formalize remediation pathways for various perceived ills, everything is left up to flawed interpretations... and this is where a litigation-averse community fails to thrive (thus a losing proposition when dragged to courts). Everyone should have more protections and clear remediation strategies! Going to an alternate remediation arbitration is OK so long as the case review and remediation processes are clear and transparent. For corporations, hit them where it hurts: automatic financial penalties. (PS: This is where corporate risk management strategies would do well to behave more ethically.) Overall, failure to truly shake-up the incentive core and regulatory extremities of the economic market will necessarily mean that all other actions are simply applying lipstick on a pig. Change begins from the inside. Is the root cause of the problem that a majority of consumers within a market goes for Option Brand-name versus Option Indie? Or that brand-name is spending foreign money to control domestic markets? Or that money is the objective measure for success across all walks of life? Or that deep pockets dictate the moral and ethical rights/wrongs of entire societies? Regardless of the answer (and there's nothing inherently wrong with being a socialist or communist or whatever label your surroundings deem 'cool' or 'uncool') there's a common thread: If a market truly wants to nurture domestic innovation, then performative finger-wagging will do nothing to that end.
