it's ‎Jóhann Jóhannsson music featuring Stephen O'Mally of Sunn O)))

Goblin the band, not pulling an elph lol

Ohhh interesting, I didn't catch that. So is it metal or prog? I've heard Goblin classified as prog which was surprising to me, but I don't know anything about either genre in question so.

anyway if you like that then Earth have a lot of appealing material

Country for people who don't like country but like doing drugs.

rad, will check these now, danke

I honestly don't think it's possible to dislike those albums. Even plebs are probably gonna sit in confused silence for a couple minutes with weird faces and then realize that they like something about that **** even if they don't know how they should feel about it.

Paul Chain is the man who casts nearly as big a shadow over Italian metal as Goblin does. If you like heavy music you should definitely give him a go. I would start with In the Darkness or Alkahest. Static End, from Alkahest, is doom metal perfection. Lee Dorian does vocals on the second half of Alkahest too.

Another band to listen to would be Black Hole, specifically, their album Land of Mystery. It's very cheesy, especially the vocals and synths, but it's great. As some guy on RYM put it, "Mario Bava metal"

are you referring to the two linked albums by Earth?

Ja.

Impending Doom is my go-to whenever I want something brutally heavy. Ever heard of them?

Apparently I have their debut on my hard drive but forget about them. I'll raise you...

Riverside ,, Lament'' 2018
Check it out ! ;)

The new UNE MISÈRE album just dropped ! Incredible album !

Is there a death metal or grindcore band who did what Bad Brains did for punk for the most brutal of extreme metal? A group of jazz musicians whose technical skill took their chosen genre's potential for sonic violence to a new level via their technical proficiency that allowed them to play at speed with proficiency that non-jazz musicians simply can't? I'm looking for a band who do not use their jazz proficiency to noodle about with metallic jazz fusion, but a band who can out-None So Vile Cryptopy via their ability to play more precisely.

Gorguts. Though I guess they're more like modern classical/serialism musicians taking on death metal than jazz musicians.

I also never heard the jazz in The Shining's Blackjazz, it always seemed more like metal made by jazz competent musicians (same goes for Cynic). Maybe that's more what you're looking for.

Again, I'm not looking for jazz being injected into death metal. I'm looking for jazz musician proficiency taking death metal to another level like how Bad Brains did for hardcore while not actually sounding anything like jazz.

That's...exactly what I just recommended to you. I guess the jazz influence on Cynic is arguable.

Nah. I want a straight up death metal or grindcore pure extreme metal band with jazz chops that most extreme metal bands don't have that takes extremity to a new level. I don't want jazz influence. I'm looking for something to, as I said, out-None So Vile Cryptopsy.

I'm just kind of hoping that this exists and if it doesn't I'm not looking for something that meets vaguely that criterion.

Good luck then. I don't see what these "jazz chops" can bring to the table without introducing jazz elements/dynamics/philosophy since death metal already has such technical performances.

I don't know the difference between jazz proficiency and tech death proficiency tbh but I assume there is a difference cause people say things. Like I said I'm just hoping.

I guess death metal proficiency is more sterile and emphasizes abrasiveness while jazz proficiency would place more value on complex interplay that's tight but still fluid. That distinction for jazz lends itself to jazz music though, so without any genre crossover I don't see where it'd be relevant beyond the trivia of jazz musicians making metal. Jazz is hard to explain man, it's a feeling.

Anyways maybe Mondo will come through with something.

I'm just sitting here thinking about Bad Brains playing hardcore in a way that a bunch of well-meaning pissants fiending off The Clash could never have and how it made punk more violent and hoping there's a death metal band that did the same thing that gives me another None So Violent to marvel at.

is this good

I dunno how many times I've told you to listen to Kataklysm (that EP and their full length Sorcery) but I'm not just playin out here



edit: it seems Temple of Knowledge slaps too



so whether or not early Kataklysm fits this relatively vague criteria, and they probably don't, not exactly mad technical but just frantically savage and esoterically brutal in a way that kinda gives them their own distinct vision of brutality, I think you should really listen to them nonetheless.

Ive recently been listening to a lot of Minas Morgul and have been looking for more symphonic black metal (preferably some like their 1998 demo, The Dark Age Of Revelation)

Burnt Flowers Fallen by Type O Negative



Really good goth metal.

Good Symphonic Metal bands
 

Could you guys recommend and good ones?

Just found these guys. Really liked them.
Silent Stream Of Godless Elegy - folk metal, doom metal

I am not sure if they have been mentioned already (Sorry - I don't feel like going through all 200 pages of posts..lol), BUT, I have really been digging Amon Amarth here lately. I came across them at the tattoo shop my husband has been going to, and for sure 10/10 would recommend.

Yes, DeadMan, this thread is a victim of its own success: so many recs that nobody bothers to look at them. One way to check what's already been mentioned is to use the "Search" function, which I find gives best results when you choose the "Show Posts" option. For Amon Amarth, it generates 421 posts, so we're back where you started, I'm afraid: too much material :(

Anyway, Amon Amarth are new to me, and here's the first song I found on youtube:-



For me, they're a little too heavy, and I really don't like that vocal style tbh, but your rec certainly fits the thread topic.

Can anyone recommend any band or genre of metal that has a lot of drumming in it (fills and different techniques)? I'm thinking maybe death metal?

Separately, does anyone have any recommendations for bands like Disturbed?

They don't fit in the death metal category, but I have always loved iwrestledabearonce's drums. Especially in their first two albums.

I know they aren't for everyone, so my apologies if they aren't your thing. :)

Thank you for pointing that option out - I will make sure to keep that in mind in the future. :)

It is definitely one of those bands where I have to be in the mood for them - some artists I can listen to pretty whenever, and they are not one of those bands. lol But I still dig them when I need something to get amped up.

Wow thanks! I can't believe I've never heard of them before, they've got impressive vocals and your right the drumming is great :D
Thanks so much

Flying Colors is a great band.

back in 2009
