Bit of a different direction here, but I've been relistening to the old Metallica albums lately... Kill 'Em All and Ride the Lightning specifically. Was wondering where I could find myself some good fast paced sort've punk style metal. By fast paced, I certainly don't mean some of the death metal or whatever you want to call it where the double bass is flying at the speed of light. :p

Just some metal with real attitude like Pantera or something. Any thoughts?

So i came across a new track from kalmah's upcoming album(in a not-crappy-live--cellphone-cam form), and i'm kinda unsure about it. It's not bad but i hope it's one of the lesser songs on the album as i'm not overly impressed. But that may partly be due to how i'd like to see this new album come close to matching the greatness that was "The Black Waltz"(<3 that album).

Also, Here it is if youtube doesn't get around to deleting it as they like to do with anything and everything anymore.

Any Hypocrisy fans here? I stumbled across them on emusic the other day - I really like some of their stuff of 'A taste of Extreme Divinity'.

Are most of their albums similar to this one?

BTW - Cannibal Corpse still rules.

I download my music from emusic, and they just brought in Fear Factory. Their Demanufacture album from 1995 is amazing. I had to download a few songs, Zero Signal (from the Mortal Kombat soundtrack), Self Bias Resistor, and Replica. I forgot how much these guys ruled back then.

Raymond Herrera is one of the nastiest drummers I've ever seen live.

So despite not being too impressed initially by "bullets are blind" a couple months ago, i must say that Kalmah's new album(titled '12 gauge') turned out quite good overall. And on a different flavor of metal: Eluveitie's new album, Everything Remains as It Never Was, is pretty good too.

Thrash is what you are looking for and LoG is probably the best current torch carrier. Haven't heard too much else new on that front unfortunately.

I assume you are already down with the classics: SOD/MOD, Nuclear Assault, Anthrax, Megadeth, Slayer, Testament, Sepultura, Nailbomb, Fudge Tunnel, DRI, DBC, etc.

Las two Metallica albums haven't been bad either. Too bad one is so horribly mixed that its worse than vintage Misfits and the other while great musically seems to lack a certain passion.

I went looking for music threads in the Media Room but this one escaped me. Thanks to Behemoth for letting me know.

No problem. (Y) Thanks for the move.

Did you get the new one? It is probably the best work they've done since Demanufacture (though I personally like Obsolete the most).

No Raymond Herrera, sadly, he quit with Christian (well, got kicked out actually), but Gene Hoglan's killing on the album.

I haven't heard the new one yet - is Burton still on vocals? I have to agree with Obsolete, that was a very good album. Shock and Edgecrusher are two of my favorites. I'll have to check this one out as well.

Thanks for the heads-up Syanide. ;)

Throwing this band out there again - Nile. Not sure how many metal heads have heard of these guys, but they are supposedly one of the best technical bands out there.

Yep, Burton's singing, Dino's back. The bass player is the bear from Strapping Young Lad, they haven't changed him, and Gene Hoglan's on drums. Basically there was this whole soap opera (it's ongoing) with Burton and Dino screwing Christian and Raymond over, reuniting on their own and writing the new album without the other two being informed. As much as I feel bad for those two guys, the really sad thing is that this really s**** all over their last two albums.

Unfortunately, emusic doesn't have Mechanize yet, so I'm still rocking the old Fear Factory. I guess I'll have to bite the bullet and buy the CD. If you say it's the best since Demanufacture, I'll trust ya ;)

Just downloaded Body Hammer - I forgot how brutal this song was.

@ Behemoth: Yes, they rock! I'm almost certainly going to see them in Fayetteville on June 2 :D they're touring with Prong and Silent Civilian. It's on a Wednesday (wtf, seriously), but taking a half-day off from work the next day is totally worth it.

  • 2 weeks later...

Good to know that FF has some fans. Fayetteville is a bit too far for me to go, although Clutch is coming to Greenville, SC June 17. That should be a great show.

Definitely! Although that didn't work out... definitely a bit of a drive... I'm going to see a local band tomorrow (a local band with GREAT potential, btw, you guys should check them out: http://www.myspace.com/traumaslavemusic -- listen to Tear It Out and see what you think) instead.

Clutch, now I haven't listened to them in a while. I should do that...

    • Nvidia GeForce NOW gains support for Dark Scrolls, Empulse, and more by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The final update of June for Nvidia's cloud gaming service GeForce NOW is now available, and it is touting support for six more games. The company is also drawing subscriber attention towards the summer sales kicking off across stores, so they can stock up on more cloud-supported titles. Of course, the Steam Summer Sale is the biggest promotion, which is kicking off later today. "Supported Steam games can be streamed across devices with GeForce NOW, making it easy to buy a game once, keep progress synced and pick up where the gameplay left off on PCs, Macs, handheld devices, phones, TVs and more," says the company. "In other words, the Steam Summer Sale brings the deals; GeForce NOW adds the flexibility." Don't forget that the GeForce NOW summer sale is still active as well. This limited-time offer drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. At the same time, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping the price by $70 from the original $199.99. Here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: Dark Scrolls (New release on Steam, available June 22) SAND: Raiders of Sophie (New release on Steam, available June 22) Deer & Boy (New release on Steam, available June 23) EMPULSE (New release on Steam, available June 24) The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales (Steam) FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves (Steam) With the June expansions coming to an end, Nvidia should be announcing its July GeForce NOW plans next week. Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month.
