LOL! #16, my friend went to a gwar show, and he got up on stage, after which gwar beat the crap out of him, threw him off stage. After all that, 3 bouncers came and continued the beating. It was fairly funny seeing him at school the next day, hahaha.

Also, i don't get why people say dragonforce sucks. Obviously they don't suck considering they sell records. If you are saying a band sucks, then you have no intelligence. Its simply YOU not liking the band, not them sucking. Its called an opinion, and just because someone likes dragonforce or any other band, doesn't mean they are retarded or stupid or gay, ITS AN OPINION!
Its not how you pick your nose...its where you put the booger that matters

In all seriousness...


Any band not mentioned on this thread, or on GotFrag in general...

Metal has become completely trendy in the past several years, and most of the bands that people are just discovering as HEAVY and BRUTAL are generic and watered down pop ripoffs from bands that have been around WAY before these kids "got into the scene."
thanks them for not havin a country full of pretending like you \o/

Necrophagist - German technical death metal (Their vocalist/guitarist is an amazing composer, writes some really sick material)
Opeth - This is on the border...Opeth incorporates deathmetal/clean vocals as does their music. Death Metal/ Progressive rock
Nile - amazing technical death metal. I suggest listening to anything from Ithyphallic or Annihilation of the Wicked.
BEHEMOTH - this is a must hear and see. They play blackened death metal (black metal in the past). I suggest listening to the following songs: Slaves Shall Serve, At the Left Hand ov God.
Dimmu Borgir - symphonic black metal. My favorite songs include Progenies of the Great Apocalypse, Vredesbyrd, Spellbound, and Mourning Palace.
Finntroll - finnish polka influenced black metal. they have some really cool sounds and melodies.
Melodeath/Melodic death/Death metal:
Kalmah
Children of Bodom - everything up to Are you dead yet.
At the Gates
Hypocrisy - really recommend listening to Virus
Death - really cool progressive death metal with philosophical lyrics
Wintersun
Ensiferum
Norther
In Flames - everything up to Reroute to Remain.

Black metal:
Satyricon
Emperor
Keep of Kalessin
Immortal
Mayhem
Morduk
Darkthrone
Bath0ry

Thrash metal:
Slayer
Exodus
Kreator

I can't believe only one person listed Devildriver. Easily the best live performance you will ever see.

I've been listening to a lot of:

Devildriver
Divine Heresy
In Flames
Throwdown
Machine "F**cking" Head
Job For A Cowboy
Chimaira
Lamb of God
Black Label Society
All That Remains
Hell Yeah
Killswitch Engage
Slayer
Trivium
Cavalera Conspiracy

If your looking for new metal, most of it sucks ass and you wont find much that you havent heard before.

Cavalera Conspiracy is new but its basically where Sepultura left off, no complaints, all Sepultura is good!!!

Check out Dimmu Borgir, they wont disappoint.

The new Machine Head is sick.

Cant believe no one mentioned the new Unearth album...its incredible.

Everything else that is "new" sounds old. Just check out the bands in these idiots lists of obscure metal.
