What should I listen to if I'm mostly digging metal on a range of Mastodon to Yob to High on Fire to Monolord. The only thing heavy enough for me this week is super sludgy doomy guitar riffs but I never know what bands to go for considering there are so many popping up recycling boring ideas. Doesn't have to be slow as Ahab but it's gotta sound like something an ancient colossus would listen to while viewing his aquarium of blue whales.

Zebulon Pike Lair of the Minotaur Roanoke Burning Witch Wo Fat Khanate Gnaw Dragged Into Sunlight That's at least some stuff beyond the usual recs for sludge/doom/whatever.

Seriously, the first three songs on Promulgation of The Fall are some of the best in death metal. Horrendous?

https://youtu.be/QTHXeT8XjrU Shameless plug of Monolithian, a local band. Bass/vocals and drums duo. Heavy as gently caress, supported Anaal Nathrakh and playing Temples Fest for the 2nd year on the trot this year. They have a few releases out. Sludgy, doomy, groovy, sometimes a little bit black.

I think I might like Gamma Ray more than Blind Guardian when it comes to Power Metal. I know Blind Guardian are meant to be THE definition of amazing Power Metal (which is fair), but there's something about the ridiculousness of Gamma Ray that appeals to me more.

H13 posted:I think I might like Gamma Ray more than Blind Guardian when it comes to Power Metal. But I can't fault you for preferring Gamma Ray over them either, because GR are one of the best too. I've actually been revisiting them more and more often lately. And THEY if something are the loving definition of great euro power metal. I love Kai Hansen's vocals, he's surely not a technical virtuoso but there's a whole different kind of edge to his weird gnome voice. And I maintain that when he sings more softly he sounds like a chipmunk Johnny Cash. Fiendish Dr. Wu posted:Also Edguy.

Nordick posted:Last year was pretty extraordinary for me, as both BG and Nightwish released new albums and neither one made it to my "best of 2015" list. I really tried to like BtRM but I just couldn't get a grip on it. Trying to think back to it now, I can't remember a single goddamn thing from it. I actually like it a whole lot. It's like listening to a movie, or am epic fantasy novel.

Vulture Culture posted:This was my feel on Nightfall, which was a much better album. (I get that most bands can't do that twice.) Well I mean yeah obviously NiME is a much better album, but still I don't get all the hate for BtRM. Although it's not as good as NiME, At the Edge of Time, Somewhere Far Beyond, it's not as bad as A Twist in the Myth. I think it's a really solid album.

I don't hate BtRM, it's a pretty nice album and enjoyable to listen to. It still has BG's sweet-rear end wailing guitar tone and everything... but somehow it just feels like it lacks the final something. Like it has no hooks, and it just goes in one ear and out the other, like a teflon otter down a mudslide. I keep going "oh, this is a cool part" when it's playing, but afterwards I just draw a blank when I try to remember what I just heard.

The last BG album I really liked overall was "A Night at the Opera", but I'll keep buying the dang things (and would not at all mind another live album).

I looked on Hells Headbangers site to see if they had CD copies of Profanatica's "Sickened By Holy Host" They didn't have a CD they released a few years ago. They have tote bags.
