Vulture Culture posted:I still think Witherscape ranks just below Unicorn as the worst project of Dan Swano's career I would definitely prefer if he did Nightingale style cleans because I do remember thinking that it sounded like he was trying too hard on the first Witherscape too. Oh well, I'm sure I'll enjoy my yearly dose of Swedish dad metal either way.

a fleshy snood posted:It pains me to accept this, but yeah it is pretty poo poo. I vaguely enjoyed that one Jethro Tull kind of song at least. Just like In Flames, Opeth died in the early 2000's, and just like In Flames, one man continues to ride the good name of the band into the ground.

Ulio posted:I haven't listened to Opeth in a while but the new In Flames is atrocious even the video is awful and cringeworthy. Sucks because In Flames first album and EP are some of my favorite pieces of music. It's funny because Anders (the singer) said in an interview something along the lines of, "Fans think that every album we've released is the new worst album ever and have been saying it since The Jester Race" BECAUSE IT'S TRUE

It seems good but yes the quality is poo poo. I've never been a huge fan but I didnt want to turn it off partway through like I did with We are the Void or wahtever the gently caress it was.

El Gallinero Gros posted:Can't remember if I asked this before, but what websites do you guys use in terms of finding new metal you like and reviews that are on the money? I usually just look at Angrymetalguy.com and see what new releases they've reviewed, then listen to it without actually reading the review (unless it's an album im actually already looking forward to).

Hey guys everyone's favorite polish death metal band released a new album today Vader tapes tend to grow on me over time but I'm giving "The Empire" a solid SICK/10 off the jump anyways. As usual It feels like a change in sound from the previous album while still retaining that distinct Vader feel.

david crosby posted:Kool. It has been a really good year, maybe better than 2013. I mean that only in reference to metal, otherwise 2016 can blow me. But y'all gotta listen to new Gorguts, Ulcerate, Vektor, Mare Cognitum, Sinistrous Diablous, Blood Incantation, and Plebian Grandstand. What did I miss this year? Please do not say the new Metallica. I think the new Vader is pretty good and generally enjoyable for anyone with even a passing interest in death metal. Also if you're into melodeath Omnium Gatherum's latest (from February) is their best yet.

Wow now that is an odd venue choice. That place is like a "classy" kinda of bar that the asian and black community (and also gangs; they tend to infest any nice bar in Calgary) love to frequent and usually only hosts EDM artists. One of our CFL team players was shot and killed outside of it a couple months ago. On the night it opened an asian gang member stabbed one of the bouncers. It's also loving huge and there's no way its going to hit even 20% capacity. It used to be a grungy rear end rock club (called The Back Alley) that would usually be frequented by people that hated typical club scenes and club music, so maybe whoever booked it still thinks its that sort of joint.

Nordick posted:It's new Wintersun, I don't give a poo poo what the title on the cover is. I'm not convinced it'll be awesome necessarily, but I sure as hell wanna hear it to find out. It amuses me that Time was simultaneously released and literally delayed forever. I wouldnt mind another album like their first since the extreme power metal scene is pretty much dead, but Time 1 was real bad.

It's not as good as the debut, but still a good piece of bombast.

DeusExMachinima posted:OK I've heard lots of sub-subgenre names in my time but what exactly would be extreme power metal? Dragonforce? Well most people call poo poo like Wintersun melodic death metal but I think that's a bit of a stretch. Basically yes just power metal with growling and extra guitar noodling.

Chromatic posted:I'm 4 songs in and completely in love already. Why in the hell did I not listen to this album sooner? Great riffs, soothing yet punchy atmospheres, it's catchy, and it flows well. I really adore the way this album has a way to lay back and let a killer riff take the forefront instead of the way a lot of bands do it these days and try to cram lyrics in every place they can. If you're a fan of Swano's clean vocals and enjoy prog rock you should check out the Nightingale album "Nightfall Overture", since it's probably the pinnacle of his clean singing. It's pretty amazing to hear how his voice evolved from The Breathing Shadow (1995 horrendous) to Nightfall Overture (2005, awesome). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZP_sGFTnbw He also does some clean singing on the Witherscape albums but it's more aggressive. Witherscape is basically the Moontower 2/Crimson 3 that we'll never get.

henpod posted:Fine by me, I like loud drums and Hahto is a beast on the kit. Thanks for the heads up, gonna give this a listen later. I like loud drums too, the problem is that the overloud drums and vocals drown out the guitars almost entirely. He did cut down on the symphonic bullshit though, which is great. It's definitely better than Time. If you're into this sort of thing I would say its a good listen. There's less filler moments than there was on Time and more music overall, which isn't hard considering half of Time was interludes and whatever the gently caress else. I'm looking forward to someone leaking the Ultra Elite $$$ Bundle which included a 'heavy metal' mix of Time which has the symphonic parts cut out. Might make it a lot more enjoyable, like Devin Townsend releasing Z2 with all the wacky dialogue cut out.

Schneider Heim posted:Hi, sorry for the late reply! I liked Stratovarius, 2000s era Blind Guardian, and even a bit of Dragonforce. I guess I like them melodic and uplifting, and more on the clean vocals side. (uhhh something like JAM Project, but metal, if anyone here gets that) Kamelot might be up your alley. I haven't listened to power metal in literally years but they were one of my faves back in the day, and they're still active. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wRreoNRGwk You'd probably also like Lost Horizon though they're long broken up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_whlCHGGM8 Coincidentally, I think both of these vocalists left their bands to form Christian rock/metal groups.

EL BROMANCE posted:Yeah when I saw them live my only real complaint was ZP, it felt like he really struggled to keep up with the band. But it didn’t actually matter, they were still an absolutely ton of fun to watch live. Trampolines and fans blowing back their hair? A good time. I saw them in 2009 with Sonata Arctica after they'd blown up from Guitar Hero fame and it was a solid show but also the biggest concentration of nerds that I have ever seen.
