Thanks, already did though. Didn't care too much for the vocals. I wasn't really planning on posting things I don't like about the bands though, since as I said, I'm incredibly picky about death metal. The vocals just have to feel good I guess, like.. the growl and regular singing (clean singing as someone called it?) if there is any.

Insomnium though, doesn't really have vocals lol. I mean, it's there, but it's much more of a background role. Probably why it was easy to get used to them. :p

I'll stick around though~

Maybe give Opeth a try? I'm not sure if you have checked them out, but they have an incredible mix of growl/clean vocals that seem to match the music perfectly. Most of their songs are around the 10 min mark to, so it makes for some good driving music. ;)

You might want to check out Amon Amarth as well - good ole Viking Metal. Songs about war, ships, swords, and spears....classic.

I remember someone posting something in this thread, or it may have been another thread, about a site where you can go and sing or hum the song and it'll find the song for you. Does anyone have any idea, because I don't remember the name of the site.

I believe Midomi is the site you're thinking of.

Seeing DevilDriver on Wednesday :D Really looking forward to it. Support bands are Behemoth, Suicide Silence, Trigger The Bloodshed & Malefice. I'm only really there for DevilDriver again. I saw them last year and they were amazing, I was pretty much dead after them though when Opeth came on.

Actually finding myself enjoying Mistaken Element quite a bit! As someone mentioned, their vocals has a hint of Phil from Pantera. Loving it honestly.

Makes me miss Dimebag a bit though oddly enough. :laugh: :cry:

Will have to let Opeth grow on me more. They're great musically and vocally. Just have to find some songs that really grab me. :yes:

Thanks for the suggestions people.

Opeth MORE than f**king rules!!! Akerfeld is a music genius, a wonderful songwriter, an awesome guitar player, and an incredible singer, the way he can sing like an angel for a second and growl like hell the second after...

Need recommendations, looking for bands similar to Summoning & Nokturnal Mortum (more specifically the album
)

I wish I could help you out - not really my style of music, but Nokturnal Mortum is not bad. Kinda dig the sound.

Yes, that is it, thanks!

You're welcome. :)

I haven't came across another band with the range of vocals the Akerfeld has. You nailed it, he can sing like an angel one verse, and growl like a demon the next and the music totally flows with it. They're amazing.

Throwing Boltthrower back out there - I think a lot of people would dig this band, the have unbelievable riffs, and an awesome death vocalist. The Killchain may be one of the best metal songs I have heard. Plus, that's an awesome name. :)

Hey guys. I very much enjoy Unquestionable Presence by Atheist and Archaeaeon by Mitochondrion. Can anyone make any recommendations similar to those "technical death metal" albums? Most metal doesn't interest me much, but they've really struck a chord.

Kataklysm

I know someone with similar taste to me that loves their album, Sorcery. I do not concur ...

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com AI companies often rely on readily available internet content to train their chatbots and provide users with instant answers. This method of AI training is fast and relatively inexpensive, but using a website’s content without permission or compensation is not something publishers like to see, and this is exactly why Microsoft and OpenAI are now being sued. As reported by Bloomberg, a group of publishers that collectively own nearly 400 newspapers has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft. The coalition argues that the two companies scraped their content to build AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Copilot without paying any compensation. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues that while AI products have generated billions of dollars in market value using publishers’ work, none of that value has been shared with the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking statutory damages and injunctive relief for alleged copyright infringement and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. “Defendants systematically and secretly crawled the Publishers’ websites—including content behind paywalls and other access restrictions—and copied the Publishers’ articles, stories, and other original works onto their own servers without authorization,” the complaint states. The publishers also described the AI boom as a “death knell for local journalism” if AI companies that scrape content for free are not held accountable. Former New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and his law firm, Platkin LLP, are representing the publishers. “Our models empower innovation, are trained on publicly available data, and are grounded in fair use,” OpenAI spokesperson Drew Pusateri told Bloomberg. This is not the first lawsuit involving the unauthorized use of publishers’ content by AI firms, but it is one of the largest coalitions ever formed against the free use of content by AI chatbots. In 2024, OpenAI and Microsoft also faced a similar lawsuit from eight newspapers that claimed AI products were benefiting from their content without permission.
