God-tier metal album discussion. Pic related
GOAT thrash coming through.
>>48818784>Crack the Skye >god-tier lrn2Mastodon
makes me wanna bow down to the Varg master race
>>48818865Which album of theirs is better? I like all of their stuff except for the Hunter
>>48818931Leviathan and Blood Mountain feel more complete, Crack the Skye just felt to be like a couple of good songs surrounded by a bunch of mediocre fillers
>>48819027I love both of those albums, but Crack the Skye just struck a chord with me. I don't feel that there was any mediocre filler on it at all, but you are entitled to your opinion.
God-tier metal album coming through.
>>48819058mmm>>48818865sounds like you need to lrn2mastodon. i bet you liked omrts faggot
Literally the only thing in this genre that actually caught my attention
>>48818784what are some good tracks on that album except oblivion?
>>48819400Divinations, Quintessence, The Czar, Ghost of Karelia, Crack the Skye, The Last Baron
>>48819359mein neger!!!
>>48818784jesus christ lad, listen to the 2nd track off the new record and the ending is like the first time i listened to crack the skye
>>48819400Quintessence. >mfw
>>48819058NUCLEAR WARHEADS READY TO STRIKE
>>48819463Mah nigga! Other god-tier album from Kalmah.
>>48819058Just fired this one up and it rules. Thanks for the suggestion
>>48819451>any song from Crack the Skye other than the title track, the last baron and oblivion Please be joking
>>48819625Fuck yeah man, Dopethrone is the shit
>>48819633Why would I put it as a god-tier record if I didn't love every song on it?
>>48819672go to bed golgotha
and i don't even LIKE metal
>>48819179That's cool man, like what you like. Sorry for being such a cunt initially
>>48819725This dude has good taste. You should try pic related.
Can I have some recommendations for some actually good groove metal? Maybe something with a progressive edge?
>>48819936Well this isn't groovy but a god-tier progressive metal album.
>>48819836Hey cool thanks I'll check it out
>>48820136never could get into the overblown clean vocal dream theater-esque progressive metal myself
>>48820201Yeah it is pretty hard to get over :/ Kinda like Machinae Supremacy's vocals but once you get past them its great.
>>48820201Correction: except for Haken, Haken is awesome
essential sludge
>>48820201Yeah, DT can get pretty cheasy at times, sometimes I struggle to listen to the music through how terrible some of the lyrics are, especially post-Falling Into Infinity DT
>>48820298Holy Shit I love that album so much. The harmonies on Because It's There are so fucking good
I have a hard time choosing since most of their albums are fucking god-tier.
Not into djent that much myself, but this album is still phenomenal nonetheless
>>48820417Hivemind bro ? this is scary :p
>>48820460This is bait
>>48820417>>48820422Damn, must be a good album
>>48820516>not knowing about the minds i
R.I.P Jon
>>48820476album name?
>>48820476Here is another one. Not as djenty but progressive.
>>48820614Altered State by TesseracT
>>48820614Metallica - Ride the Lightning
>>48820101yes
I'll throw in some thrash
>>48819394this is my favorite album atm
>>48820635Goddamn I love Scale The Summit so much, The Migration and Altered State are my two favourite albums from 2013
>>48820635this is pretty gud
>>48820568Unfortunately I have yet to get into melodeath
>>48820774
Is there a technical death metal essential chart?
ITT: not enough instrumental metal
One of the only bands and albums that deserve to be associated with word "epic".
>>48820874You should try Polyphia. They are pretty new band and quite young too. Song called "Impassion" finds its way to my playlist everyday
>>48820939Cool, I'll be sure to check them out
>>48820692thanks for this one. My thrash listening has been mostly limited to the most entry-level ones before and I like it alot.
>I shiver when I remember>The shadow of the past>The lonely ways, the lonely days>When every breath might be my last>I lost my heart, I lost my soul>By every hand betrayed>But I've still got strength >I've still got life>And that will never change'Cause I'm alive!!!
>>48820867Idk about essential charts but i have been listening to Fallujah lately and damn they kick ass
yes
non mealfag hereWhy do metal albums often have such fedora-tier artwork?
>>48821203Honestly, that is a fucking awesome album
>>48821227So fedora-tier people buy them
>>48821227Since the music isn't so fedora related they have to include it somewhere
>>48821243agreed. I liked NSFW better. hope Attitude City is good.
yeezus
>>48821289I can't wait for Attitude City, NSP is the shit
Metalfag here and I agree a little bit. So many bands focus on just being edgy and not about the music really and it makes them less creative thus making them shitty bands. There are a lot of cool ones out there though you just have to look.
>>48821313meant for>>48821227
>>48819725>not ashes
>>48818784essential avant/prog metal.
>>48820635>Verb the noun
Thread has gone for this long without someone mentioning pic related
all of it
>>48821362>tfw the covers are the wrong way roundwhy
>>48821451omfg I just noticed that.
>>48821309>>48821399Sure is b8-y in here
>>48821374>Verb the noun The singer sounds like With One Last Breath's singer was trapped in a glass jar
>>48821475that thing at the end of bath's cover is the windw and bathtub from the other album
>>48821495>singer Are we still talking about Scale The Summit, or have we moved onto another verb the noun band like Protest The Hero?
>>48821601>>48821585>>48821581>>48821558>>48821523>>48821510>>48821509>>48821460>>48821391>>48821211>>48820874>>48820875>>48820810>>48820803>>48820478>>48820476>>48820136>>48820101>>48820025>>48819949>>48819836>>48819744>>48818784sure got mallcore in here fast
>>48821585But scale the summit doesnt have a vocalist? And verb the noun was name of some shitty band.
>>48821585and yes i am a retard who understood your comment too late
>>48821637>but Scale The Summit doesn't have a vocalist Yeah, that's why I was confused
>>48818784
>>48821693Had problems understanding "verb the noun". But finally got it and so what if the band name is what it is. Still is a good album.
>>48820460This is actually a good album. Production sounds like shit but still a lot better than St. Shit.
>>48821772If only they'd fire that asshole, Lars Ulrich.
>>48821707Personally I liked From Mars to Sirius more, but this album is still amazing. Something about Mario Duplantier's drumming makes me want to break something
>>48820321mah nigga, this and Lysol are the shit
Unpopular opinion inbound
>>48821839Their best album, but all their albums are amazing.
:^)
>>48821839Is liking Tool an unpopular opinion?
>>48821872
>>48821874on /mu/ it is
>>48821874How new can you possibly get
>>48821902Huh. Shit.
>>48821874Fairly. Mostly because of people who foam at the mouth about how "complex" it is and how the fact that they use weird time signatures makes them better than God.I have no actual opinion because I don't really listen to Tool but it's a widespread opinion on this board. Good chance that they're actually well-liked by most normal people and just got backlash'd here.
God-tier power metal album
>>48821969I can see how people constantly jerking off about how complex Tool are can get annoying, it's the exact same with Meshuggah.
IDK how unpopular this opinion is but...
>>48822160Eh, I don't much care for Protest The Hero, but it's cool that they were able to get enough support to go independent
>>48822160My favorite PtH album, with Volition in second.
>>48822238Same here.
>>48821872haha anon i smiled
>>48821874It's completely reactionary to the fans who overrate the band.
>>48822238Volition would be my favorite, but the mix is a bit muddy, guitars, bass and drums kinda blend together sometimes.
>>48822355I'd wager to say this is better.
>>48821451>>48821362This has to be mentioned, too, even though it's not like their old albums.
>>48818784Last good album they made. The Hunter was shit and Once More Around the Sun is so-so.
>>48821627Fuck yeah. Amazing album.
>>48821635>Blind Guardian>MallcoreWhat?
>>48821635With the exception of a couple of these, this guy is a fucking faggot.
>>48823512>tfw they may never top their prog masterpiece
>>48818931Leviathan, Remission, and even Blood Mountain and The Hunter are better.
Mastodon isn't a metal band.
>>48821635What's wrong with malls? They're fantastic. They're like amusement parks for shopping.
