Ministry of sound annual 2002, Or the Singles by Feeder.........
-
Evanescence - Fallen
Or in a different vein -
Westwood - RnB
-
Ehh. Tough call that. I don't think I could ever choose just one. There's too much out there that's good for totally different reasons. If you are looking for suggestions though:
Tool - Lateralus
Jump Little Children - Vertigo
Radiohead - The Bends
Roland Orzabal - Tomcats Screaming Outside
I think those will always be in my top ten.
-
Is there a specific style or genre you're looking for? That would be helpful. If you're looking for ANY good music and are very open-minded, try this:
Shiina Ringo - Karuki Zamen Kuri no Hana
It's Japanese. Not sure if you'll be able to find it around, but if you're looking to expand your horizons, this would be it.
-
my cureent favorite albums would have to be
countess - spawn of steel (black)
zyklon - world ov worms (black/death)
falkenbach - Heralding The Fireblade (black/viking)
ihsahn - the adversary (extreme prog/black)
thorns - thorns (black)
disiplin - vama marga, disiplin, anti-life (black)
dark army - Death Throes Daemonicus (black/usbm)
hank III - straight to hell, this aint country (country/psychobilly)
storm - nordavind (folk/viking)
darkthrone - panzerfaust (black)
mayhem - grand declaration of war (black)
arcturus - sideshow symphanies (advant-garde/black)
black lodge - covet (doom/death)
immortal - sons of northern darkness (black)
lamented souls - The Origins of Misery (doom)
-
Are you looking for metal in particular? 'Cause I have favorite albums but it's pussy artfag music.
-
im looking for anything from enya to paradise lost
just not deathmetal lol
transe is also fine as long as it isnt hardcore
-
Well alrighty then. I'm finding it hard to break down my classical music by album, and it's too hard to pick favorites, so I'll just skip it.
Contemporary artists:
Rufus Wainwright-- Want Two
The Ditty Bops-- Moon Over the Freeway
Fiona Apple-- Extraordinary Machine (especially the leaked version, in my opinion)
Broadway:
The Light in the Piazza
The Frogs
Into the Woods (I have the original but the revival is probably good too)
Guys and Dolls, 1992 revival
Oklahoma, London stage revival
Avenue Q (mainly for humor as opposed to breathtaking musical prowess)
-
Rob Dougan - Furious Angels
If you can find the bonus disc too it has instrumental versions of everything, which is nice.
-
Evanescence - Fallen
Hi, I'm wobble73 and i cry in the dark.
:nervous:

/me
-
Boards of Canada - Geogaddi (ambient? electronica)
Architecture in Helsinki - In Case We Die (prog pop)
Strapping Young Lad - Alien (uhm metal)
dEUS - Pocket Revolution (poprock)
Aavikko - Back to the Futer (synth)
Mr. Bungle - California (bungle)
Eels - Souljacker (pissed off campfire guitar songs)
The Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots (acid pop)
Mayhem - Grand Declaration of War (progressive black)
and of course
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless (classic, shoegaze pop, awesome, cannot describe)
-
As for euro-dance, hands down would be;
Cascada - Everytime We Touch
For space-themed music, I prefer;
Samael - Passage, Exodus, Eternal, or Reign of Light
...And Oceans - A.M. G.O.D. (Allotropic/Metamorphic Genesis of Dismorphism)
For energetic music, I prefer;
Children Of Bodom - Folllow The Reaper
System Of A Down - Mezmerize
Megadeth - Rust In Peace
For music that makes me want to rip my head off and shove it up my ass, I prefer;
Naglfar - Sheol
Dark Funeral - Attera Totus Sanctus
Slayer - Reign In Blood
Wintersun - Wintersun
Dimmu Borgir - Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia (sp?)
But my all time favorite would have to be;
Sonata Arctica - Reckoning Night
If you dont like this, youll never like power metal.
-
Ben Folds - Songs for Silverman
-
The Road and the Radio - Kenny Chesney
:nervous: What? It's good stuff!

Heres my library...
(http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i172/ReinvntngurXit/library-1.jpg)
Yeah most of that is Christian metal.
I especially reccomend Underoath. The older style stuff is grindcore.
If you want any of the stuiff there, PM me. we'll work something out.
-
Muse - Black Holes and Revelations
It's been my soundtrack to the summer, so to speak :)
-

I never thought i'd hear Christian & Metal used together in that context,.........It worries me deeply :shaking:
-
yea metal is the relm of satan alone, to think otherwise is either grunge or emo.
odly enought there is christian death and black (sometimes refered to white) metal. unfortunately, those bands suck :D
-
Christian Metal = (http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/9930/lovejoyguitarzm5.jpg)
Joking aside, Is this music reccomendation for a mod or your own personal enjoyment? (@thread starter)
-
the offitial nukemod playlist will contain no less than 4 burzum tracks :D
-
dude are you serious?!?!?!
Headbangers ball named As I Lay Dying metal band of 2006. AILD is a christian band.
So theres proof that christian metal isnt bad.
And since when is metal satans music? God designed music, and he allowed us to make instruments. the fact that people use it to glorify satan does NOT mean that it is satans.
-
ok to start off with im gonna drop the satan from the argument, that was merely a joking comment that happened to look cool at the time. there are pro satan bands and there are pro god bands and theres alot of pagan bands who think that satanist and christian bands are all full of beans. its natural for people to defend their music.
im only gonna say this once
the new wave of american metal...... SUCKS!!!!!!!
this of course is just an opinion.
its like another wave of glam metal, there are better genres out there, and not all of them are extreme. the average pop metal fan, seems to be completely oblivious to the wide range of metal genres to choose from. sure the industry wants to lump everything in the pop/rock section. i personally think metal is too diverse to simply call it a subgenre of rock. there the ones who come up to me at work and say "have you heard of such and such band" or "you should check out theese guys". this usually angers me, to think that my taste in metal is limited to the 200 or so bands i listen to. so when they ask me do you like this band, i usually answer "i like lots of bands, yours is not one of them".
NWOAM does get some credit fror bringing metal back to the mainstream, as does headbangers ball. but being metal is more about doing your wn thing and **** to what everyone else says, it is not about selling records or being popular. it does happen, but fame has a way of destroying an otherwise good band. examples include metallica (changing their style to suit teen whorism), cradle of filth (tshirt company), sepultura (a good thrash band then boom, overnight they play kiddie music), ect.
if youre curious about other metal genres please see the movie "metal: a headbangers journey" it should be required material for anyone who claims to be a metalhead. its fairly new, cam out last year in canada i think. it is very important because its a good way to introduce metal to the malinformed general populace. its also a good way for people curious about metal to get more info. it stirs some debate among metalheads, but thats mainly its genreology has a few 'errors' in it (such as groping doom with stoner, or black sabbath's stance as the first metal band). but its about damn time a serious metal documentry emerges.
mtv has no soverenty as far as metal bands are concerned. mtv is about popularity, metal is not. of course mtv is gonna root for whats making the riaa rich. mind you mtv thinks that brittney spears is hot ****, therefor they must be ****ing wrong. i did give them credit before but i think they gave metal less than theyve taken away. now to get more acurate opinion on a particular metal band, one must turn to a metal resource, such as www.metal-archives.com. lets see what they say about them.
http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=20825
heh, seems theyve been classified as metalcore. id say roughtly 60% of metalheads think that anything with -core on the end isnt metal. from the metal archives desciption, id probibly not listen to them. they just dont seem to peak my intrest at all.
-
as far as I know, As I Lay Dying is not crappy pop metal music. it is genuine, talented, and enjoyable metal music.
What mainstream emtal bands are you trying to bash? It better not be killswitch Engage.
-
dude are you serious?!?!?!

If God designed Stephen Schwartz musicals then I'm glad I don't believe in him.

then why do their genre discriptions end with -core on metal archives :D
according to metal:a headbanger's journey, killswitch is an nwoam band. i personally think they need to add a c to that akronym.

on your word I went to go check out some samples on Amazon... now don't think me biased I like this kind of music, however...
listen to the first five samples in a row and tell me they dont sound exactly the same. All the songs seem to be based around the same tone the same tempo the same EVERYTHING.... i'm sorry but they sound bad just plain bad... maybe its becasue of amazon always just playing form the middle of the songs.
don't belive me check it for yourself. http://www.amazon.com/Shadows-Are-Security-Lay-Dying/dp/B0009FHKPO/sr=1-1/qid=1161428254/ref=sr_1_1/002-2385896-0238427?ie=UTF8&s=music

-
trampolines are not kvlt! burn them!
at least i know where gorgoroth gets their crucifiction victims for their live shows :D
-
OMG! Tramoplines are more kvlt and tr00 than all of Gorgoroths crucifixion victims having a blood orgy together! HAH!
-

Love Song - Korn
Yeah unfortunatly, they use the same chords over and over. alot of their songs sound the same. They are a great band but they get extremely repititive. if you guys think those arent good, i will list some great christian metal bands and you can tell me if they sounds terrible or not.
The Showdown (these guys are incredible, go watch this for proof: http://www.uvtv.info/streamvideo.php?filename=TheShowdown-BreathOfTheSwamp)
Norma Jean (Especially bless the martyr, kiss the child)
The Agony scene (not too christian anymore but w.e.)
Mortal Treason
Maylene and the sons of disaster
Living Sacrifice (a legend among metal music)
Killswitch Engage (all christians but dont consider themselves a christian band)
The Devil Wears Prada
Haste The Day
The Chariot
Gray Lines Of Perfection
Extol
August Burns Red (extremely brutal)
Becoming the Archetype (given an awesome review by metal review.com, who often bashes christian metal)
Underoath (ESPECIALLY older grindcore stuff)
Zao (considered the pioneers of christian metal)
Nodes Of Ranvier
Sinai Beach (not a big fan but still decent)
If I havent convinced you yet, then I dont know what will. Go listen. (type in www.purevolume.com/(the band name here, no spaces) to hear these bands...
