Metal Frustration!

[Mirdin]

I was being sarcastic. Every metal fan knows Arch Enemy.

I think he thought you were referring to Solution .45...

I think too that he thought you were referring to solution 45.

I still think everyone in here should listen to Baroness, damnit.

New Demon Hunter album is out check out the songs Collapsing and Just Breathe

[Gazus]

Tired of metal repetitivity ? Of all those "sound like another" guitar riffs ?

Try MOPA (My Own Private Alaska), french band from Toulouse, who recorded his first album with Ross Robinson.

The (complete) first EP : http://www.deezer.com/fr/#music/my-own-private-alaska/m-o-p-a-49235

Things have changed between the EP and the album. In a very good way. More expressive singing/yelling, add of different orchestrations and a far far better production (Robinson inside).


Oh, I forgot to add there are no guitars there. Only drums, vocals... and piano.

I heard mygrain are working on their third studio album. I liked the two albums so far so I think it´s gonna be a good album too.

I got their other two albums, too, but I don't think they're what you can listen to when you're frustrated by metal. They sound like everyone else.

Gamma Ray: power metal with the faggotry of power metal vocals. i can overlook that on the account of being able to shred like mad men: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvbguX1xxPs&feature=related

Their latest Chasing Shadows will clear any cobwebs from the inside of your skull. Nice guitar solo from 2:25, which transfers into what sounds like Jeroen Tell-esque SID at 3:01. (I just wish )

[Mirdin]

I always wondered why nobody makes power metal (you know nice solos keyboards etc) but with normal vocals not the I-have-no-balls-I-sing-so-high-that-I-can-reach-space-vocals.

[Mithrandil]

Try Sabaton then - think they are in the power metal genre

[Tolkki]

If you want some death metal, try the older In Flames, like from Lunar Strain to Clayman, and if you want melodic death metal, try the newer In Flames, like from Soundtrack to your  Escape to Sense of Purpose.

I just found out about Orphaned Land.

I haven't tried out their music yet but they do have a pretty unique sound and "Sapari" sounds pretty cool IMHO.

[Gazus]

Listen to the album Mabool, it's a masterpiece. I also read that their last album is kickass (and produced by Steven Wilson).

[Jack Lupino]

Periphery's self titled album comes out the 20th!
