I'm going to see The Ruins of Beverast tomorrow night, my first BM concert in two years, I'm a bit anxious despite being used to this kid of show, the lockdowns have melted my brain so much. This is the third time I'm seeing them, I was disappointed with their latest album so maybe experiencing it live will make me appreciate it (and I also hope Meilenwald hired another guitarist and they won't have technical problems like the last time).

The new Meshuggah album is out today (yay), and they made a black metal song.
I think, half of the songs are brilliant and original. I especially like Broken Cog and They Move Below. And this one too even if it's not a song to listen to on its own. On Broken Cog the rhythm froze my brain trying to follow it and the end was so creepy and something I never expected from meshuggah, and on They Move Below, the beginning is so refreshing and beautiful, I expected that would be the entire song and then the vicious part started and I don't know if it's just because of the contrast but it's so extra vicious and brutal and there is not a boring part in the entire 9 minutes.
But the other half of the songs sound good, but they're all "dun dun dun du dun dun dun dun du dun" with different decorations thrown in. They all have a few very interesting parts and brilliant solos from Fredrik but overall I would have liked less dun dundudun. Of course, not every song will be for everyone, maybe someone else likes those parts best. Anyway, I like it better than I liked The Violent Sleep of Reason when I first heard it.
What do you think? Maybe I wrote too much, but I love Meshuggah and I don't have anyone to talk about it with. I hope you decide to listen to it.

No. 194853

Idk how I've never heard of this band. I don't know what kind of metal this is (progressive?) anyways I'm halfway through and I'm liking it. I'm looking to branch out a bit more from the symphonic metal I usually listen to.

No. 194874

>>194853
Oh man I hope you can listen to all their albums too, I for one think they are all amazing and worth the time, especially Catch 33 and Koloss. I wouldn't know what kind of metal it is either, actually I was just thinking about how people label them but no label is really right I think, it doesn't really sound like progressive metal, or death metal, and certainly not djent. It's a beast of its own
If you like it I think you would like Gojira too

Etxeguiña - Herederos Del Silencio (Full EP Premiere)
The only positive thing I have to say about reddit is that I found about Etxeguiña there and it's now one of my favourite black metal bands even though they've only released one EP so far. It's only 20 minutes long and worth listening to it all, but my favourite song is La Montaña.

I have a bit of a hard time listening to this song. When I listen to it I just get this feeling if darkness looming over me. I think it's because I listened this song and music like it back in my teens when I was in a really dark place in my life. Which really sucks tbh because this song is beautiful.

CoF is quite hit and miss for me (mostly miss) and a lot of their albums sound like they could be different genres. But I really think this is one of their best songs, it has the right mix of metal and melody. Saffron's Curse is another favorite of mine.

The new Blut Aus Nord dropped a few days ago and I find it a bit bland, I feel like it's the same melodies we've heard since the 777 trilogy. Also using Lovecraft as a theme so late in his career is weird, it's usually one of those baby's first black metal album concept, especially since Vindsval stated that he wasn't interested in the scene anymore.

Is anyone else here going to the Rammstein concerts this summer?
I'm so excited, I bought the tickets 3 years ago but the fucking pandemic got in the way! Glad it's finally happening!! They're one of my favourite bands and I have never seen them live before.

No. 208167

Despite considering myself a Rhapsody fan, I rarely listen to any of the albums beyond the Emerald Sword Saga (I guess it makes sense since they changed their name to Rhapsody of Fire after that).
I've heard that Dark Wings of Steel has been RoF's lowest point, and I tried listening to the re-recorded versions of the iconic old songs with the new vocalist Giacomo Voli, but I hated it so much that I couldn't even finish that album (Legendary Years).
But after reading some reviews for their new album a few minutes ago, because apparently they got better, I decided to listen to some of the best songs in Glory for Salvation.
When I listened to the first song, "Son of Vengeance", I thought "holy shit, this is an entirely different band. It has none of the essence of the old Rhapsody." But the next seven songs are actually pretty decent, some better than others of course, and at times do remind me of the early albums. But I still wouldn't say any of them are as good as ESS-era Rhapsody, hell no. Perhaps they're almost as decent as The Dark Secret Saga.

I've still yet to listen to the remaining songs in this album, but I doubt they'll be good.

One of the reasons why I can't stand the more recent Blind Guardian albums (anything past A Night at the Opera) is that I don't like the backing vocals in them. I feel like Hansi's voice has become too prominent in the choruses, it's not as fun to sing along that way. I liked hearing the other guys' voices too, it gave the songs more variety.
Battalions of Fear and Follow the Blind used to be my favorite albums but right now I think I've moved on to Tales From the Twilight World and Somewhere Far Beyond (more the former than the latter); The Last Candle has always been my favorite BG song.

I will forever be sad that I never got to see Agalloch live. I could of seen them in 2009 but my manager would not let me take the day off even if I already had my ticket. It was on a Wednesday night and I always had that day off except that week where my manager decided to be a dick and changed everyone usual schedule without asking.

Beginning of this Xenoblight track reminds me of Freezing Moon.
Tried to see as many live acts as I could last week at Copenhell.
A lot of acts I happened to see were death/trash/hardcore and at times it sounded a little samey.
Some favourites performances for me were Xenoblight, Mercyful Fate, High Command, Konvent, Vried and Devin Townsend. Benediction and Gatecreeper were really fun to see live, but I'm not sure I'll keep listening much. I was a little underwhelmed to see Emperor live, I've had better times listening to their music on my own.

They were amazing and King Diamond sang well. I've never heard them live before so I can't compare, obviously vocals change with age but it did not sound strained or off at all. I think he sang some unreleased new song as well, said they might change it up before release. He was really active, moving around the stage doing air guitar and hyping the crowd up in between singing. I think many of the other bands at the festival were excited to see as well, High Command mentioned it during their set earlier and Metallica members were spotted by a viewing area.

I actually did go on my own for Saturday, and I had a great time. But I understand fully. I was comfortable because I know the area, and stayed mostly sober (only had one small cocktail for Iron Maiden).
Many interactions I had with strangers were polite and easy to end without the other trying to overstay their welcome. Baffled that I dared hug a man for being friendly to me and help another man in need of sunscreen and they both just carried on without treating it like a special moment, I even stayed after midnight. Obviously drunk people were a real nuisance but easily avoided. I hope you can find someone to tag along with you some day! I would not dare go to Hellfest alone either.

Indeed! More women should sing regular power metal, I mean one of the reasons I like this genre is that it's easy for me to sing along since it's in my vocal range.
Dark Moor (greatly underrated Spanish PM band) also had a female vocalist from 1999-2003, her name is Elisa C. Martín, and seems like a cool lady. I really liked the band's cover of "Halloween", and the songs "Bells of Notre Dame" and "Maid of Orleans".
This vocalist is now in a French symphonic power/folk metal band called Hamka, but I just found out about it so I'm not familiar with them, but from the looks of it I'll probably like them.

I need to listen to it more but the first impression is good, I like it less than Beyond the Red Mirror (this album had an unexpected influence on my life) but it's leagues better than At the Edge of Time and the second part of A Twist in the Myth, I like the heavier direction, really reminiscent of Somewhere Far Beyond.

>>192824
I love them as well. As the other anon said they sound like Sabaton singing about occult stuff and fantasy to me which is alright because I love Sabaton too. Some of their recent songs almost made me tear up like a loser. Namely White Friday. I think Sabaton is also fun because listening to them I often learn about historical events or people I didn't know before.

No. 249017

The obvious general recommendation would be a band like Nightwish but you probably already know them.

If you like folk you can try >>241719 (Russian), ГРАЙ (also Russian, try the song Mlada to get an idea), Eluveitie (Swiss, they literally sing Gaulish, try Epona maybe) or Almora (Turkish, but they also sing in English, try Cyrano).
If you like more convenient metal with female lead try Epica, Coronatus, Within Temptation, Xandria, Delain or Visions of Atlantis. Maybe Amaranthe too, their themes are more sci-fi (try Digital World for example).

Maybe songs like Nostos would be also for you (see video).

In general there are hundreds of band someone could recommend so the best is that you randomly listen to a bunch to determine your taste. I personally have no specific taste and listen to all subgenres of metal save for nu-metal maybe, so it always depends on the band for me which makes searching harder, but there is also a bigger pool of bands that could work.

No. 249076

I love the song because of my teen years loving it. Things were tough back then but I miss them I think mostly because my parents were still alive and even though things were horrible I didn't have so much stressful adult horror to deal with all by myself. I agree it's one of their best songs.

I love this oldschool white trash metal now that I thought was goofy growing up, funny enough

No. 249248

>>248582
Idk what kind of metal you are looking for as there are many subgenres. I really like symphonic metal, those bands are probably more beginner friendly. Some of my favorites are Epica, Nightwish, Within Temptation, Lacuna Coil, Amberian Dawn, Xandria. There's Unleash the Archers, a power metal band with an amazing vocalist.

If you want something harsher sounding I'd recommend Jinjer. There's also Arch Enemy (though I prefer the old vocalist the new one is still good), The Agonist, Once Human have some pretty good music.

Hi nonnies, I'd like to ask for advice. I used to listen to metal when I was younger but then stopped and got more into grunge and alt rock. Also thought it was childish and cringe for a while after that, sorry nonas
I've been wanting to get back into it for a life but I can't get over the misogyny. How do you deal with it nonas? Obviously all genres of music have some misogyny in them but it feels overwhelming with metal. So many times I came across a band that with a sound I liked just to be hit with shit lyrics like
>rape and torture to all the cunts YEAAAHHHHH I WILL STAB YOUR TITTIES
Well, more or less.
The only metal I listen to currently is Type O Negative which I love but Peter Steele's incel tendencies shine through a little too much sometimes so I try to pretend I don't hear it lol and Portal. Now as for Portal I keep forgetting there are even any vocals there because I can't understand what this mf is saying and my brain registers it as ambient noise. Do you have any recs based on that?
Of and course this is without mentioning the community, all the male metalheads I know have been the most open with their misogyny thus far which scares off from going to live shows. Sigh.

No. 257349

I'm sorry you experienced that anon. I don't really engage with the metal community, so I haven't been through that. I went to a club night once that was playing metal music and I had a great time. I'd say it helps if you have female friends that also like metal. All I can suggest is that you listen to music you want to support, and surround yourself with nicer people. I've been listening to black metal recently. I haven't got a clue what the singer is saying, but for me, the music feels kinda relaxing.

I mostly listen to the bands I already know and like over and over and over and don't stray from what I already know regularly. And I don't interact with the community whatsoever which significantly limits the misogyny.

That's new to me tbh I never met any misogynist metal fans. Male metalers are known to be huge beardy fantasy lovers with jobs who are super chill here despite the loud music they like. I have seen Americans calling metalers edgy but always assumed it was some fundies that never listened to it because the fandom seems to be the opposite of it here.

I guess it depends on the subgenre and place you live in or something. Symphonic metal for example has a huge female fanbase and most lead singers are women too, power metal and speed metal fanbases seem even, but again chill. I also love folk metal I guess this is a genre where you might encounter rightoids, but the fans of it that I am friends with are also chill dudes.
Symphonic and folk metal is also somewhat popular among old people in some Euro countries.

I'm so jelly that you got to see them live. the bands I like never (and I mean literally never) come to where I live, I have to fly three hours minimum to see anyone who isn't totally mainstream in the US. I hope I'll get to see BG live soon, I saw my favorite band last month for the first time (not BG, although BG is one of my all time favorites) it was so good, unfortunately they only performed for an hour though. I have watched videos of them though and they look like they perform live really well!

I usually have a playlist for power metal, or power metal plus folk metal, another for thrash/death, or simply play everything on my device. Sometimes I'll be in a traditional metal mood as well.
I have a playlist just for instrumentals, and sometimes make ones with certain themes (like Halloween).

I'm a huge fan of Rammstein's music, past and recent, been to many concerts, have all the albums and shit; and can't help but cringe at this video. It looks like they're trying to kill the "old rammstein" but the zombies - symbolizing fans - hold them down and don't let them move on to other things. If they don't like working together and making music and playing concerts why don't they just stop instead making a whole ass video about trying to break free from being Rammstein lmao
They keep implying it's the end for the band for a long while now, maybe it's time.

Ayrt and I got to see them live twice, I'm lucky that most of my favorite bands are European, apparently American bands can't tour here anymore because it's getting way too expensive. Their concerts are so good, they play great, the audience is always insane and they are one of the few bands to have a different set list for each show so you never know what you're getting aside from the hits and the new album's singles. I hope they come to your area in the near future!

No. 259777

Hard to give up on money. I don't blame them on being tired but I've been to LIFAD tour and to the current one and the energy and dedication really is very different, you can tell. I've also seen Iron Maiden live, another super old band, and they seemed to be genuinely happy to perform; I may be overthinking it but Rammstein guys just genuinely don't seem to be enjoying this anymore.
I also wonder how exhausting this specific tour has to be; it's incredible how it's done (have you seen a timelapse of the stage being built??) and even with what I've said above it's one of my best live show experiences, but it seems so tight on timing, and so elaborate with gimmicks, it's gotta be more tiring than any previous tour and they're all older…

Can I give a bit of a hot take, nonnas?

I've been to a couple of metal gigs this past week and have come to the conclusion that I actually fucking hate moshing and people who mosh. It's a selfish, aggressive and very, very male way to enjoy metal music. There's nothing wrong with headbanging, there's nothing wrong with jumping up and down, there's nothing wrong with putting your arms in the air, but moshing is the worst and I hate the people (men) that do it.

If I've paid fifty bucks to see a band, I want to see them. I don't want to have my attention dragged away every five minutes because some flabby, out of shape fuck is coming barrelling into my direction because he's thrown himself at another flabby, out of shape fuck and lost his balance and is now threatening to crush me beneath his neckbearded bulk. Worst is when, twenty minutes into a mosh, when they're all sweaty and fucking stink, they insist on taking their shirts off, so we can see their pale bellies, spotty shoulders and sweat-sheened man tits.

And it's always these huge, towering fucking moids that do it, seemingly completely oblivious of or ambivalent of the smaller people around them, usually women, and how someone could get seriously injured by their dumb ass blundering into them, not looking where they're going.

TL;DR - moshing is cringe and scrotey. Discuss.

No. 260088

>>259995
No, I agree. There's certain bands and venues I avoid all together because of this reason. Partially because I dislike the moshing, I want enjoy the concert from somewhere in the middle without getting into a pit and partially because I don't feel safe in a majorily male audience actively displaying aggressive behaviour even if I'm not in the pit.

I was thinking recently that it's kind of a shame those digital live performances that artists used to do during COVID haven't seem to stick around post-pandemic. Personally I would pay to watch high quality live concerts from the comfort of my own home without having to deal with moid audiences. I'm actually surprised it's not more popular within the genre considering how much of an investment touring is for a lot of bands.

It's a shame how unfriendly the whole genre by large is for women, you've really got to actively curate the stuff for yourself if you want to have a good experience.

No. 260097

This is why I always go through front for bands I love and just go to the sides for bands I'm less interested in.

I agree. I never really knew what the point of moshing was supposed to be. I recently saw a band that I've wanted to see for years and near the end of the concert they actually encourage everyone to mosh, it's annoying. I wanted to be up close to the stage but that's where all the moshing was. I just want to head bang and enjoy the music, not body slam with random strangers, most of whom smell like BO like you said.

I remember when I went to a lot of concerts as a teen and I was actually kind of into moshing (not sure why) but I got hurt more than once. One time a guys foot came down on my head since he was crowd surfing and it hurt like hell.

I feel like the odd one out of all nonnas here and I genuinely do enjoy mosh pits. I've always enjoyed the aggression you can express without having to be apologetic and the energy it builds in the room. Many of my friends don't enjoy the pit so they either stand on the left/right side or even in the front. I find the front has almost no action if you want to avoid all that. I also don't really drink too much at shows so I'm not some sloppy drunk collapsing on people.

In your experience maybe in your city it sounds fully male dominated. The shows I go to here its always a mixed crowd, and the other women who join in the pit don't seem to mind. Everyone is usually always friendly.

Unrelated but related note, I saw Black Dhalia Murder once and the pit was so crazy I lost my phone. I was able to call it from my friends cell and the guy who found it happily gave it back. The scene is friendly to everyone where I'm from.

This is because some genres have a lot of crossover with hardcore punk such as sludge and thrash metal. Just stand in the back with all the old fucks, on the sides, or the VERY front. Mosh always happens in the middle towards the front. I always see women in the pit in my location and even though I don't participate, I acknowledge it's just a way to get energy out and is part of the culture. It's like bitching about someone headbanging too hard.

I'm surprised this is the thing that bugs you because there's tons of horrid concert goers that are both men and women but the thing that really bugs me is people not knowing how to navigate through the fucking crowd or adult children who cannot handle their liquor/drugs and pass out or throw up before the show starts. Worst offender ime is women who will walk through the crowd to go to the bathroom, won't dare to push or even TOUCH a man, but will somehow think it's ok to push me out of my spot and rub their hands all over me. I've had to judo strike a few cunts for that and they always back off because they know what they did. Not sure if they see me as competition (sad mindset) or they just really wanted to feel me up but moids are not the only ones to be pissed about. People in general are just really fucking ignorant. The more junkie the crowd, the worse the experience gets. I find people at black metal and groove metal (although that's a very broad term) shows to be the most courteous. Genre's where people are more in their shell or just have nerdier demographics.

Castrator is decent- great compositions, great riffs, love the singer, but while the lyrics are satisfyingly moid-hating they feel so empty. I guess I'm more into poetic lyricism as opposed to "crushed by men I hope they die stick a needle in your eye" or w/e.

Farewell to another legend, Dark Fortress just finished their last tour. Anyone else go? Their sound may have changed quite significantly between the first and last release (Azathoth's melodic black sound vs Morean's classical influence) but they consistently put out great work. Every release was a self-contained concept album with a story which seems to have fallen out of favour these days, you can tell despite their infrequent output the boys put a lot of love into their work.

I know this is months and months late, but the best way i deal with the bullshit from the metal community is to simply not interact with them in any capacity. I just listen to the music on spotify and bandcamp and do not engage, granted i still hear about some bullshit through the grapevine. It sucks because metal is the only genre of music that appeals to my angsty side and I can properly engage with on an artistic level. For much of the reasons as you, it's a big reason why I have avoided going to metal shows as well as racism. I personally feel like there isn't a single genre of music that was truly made with specifically someone like me in mind or that i won't be isolated from fanbase, so silently enjoying music on my own is something i am stuck doing.

Hey metal-nonnies, my favourite band Ignea will go on a tour in Europe! They will visit my country and I'm so excited!

Nonas have you heard these bands and what do you think of them?

No. 298593

Fear Factory is kind of a butt metal edgy 00s band. But they're probably the band that does it the best. Some of their songs are pretty grandiose actually like Zero Signal or Pisschrist. I think their vocalist is a rape baby, so it influenced a lot of their angst. But he left the band for some reason. so if you see them on tour now, it's not going to be the same band, unless their new vocalist kicks ass. I dunno.

Don't let worries about potential shitty people keep you from going to shows! Metal is one of those genres that really tends to lose something in recordings vs live, kind of like jazz or punk. There's something about the energy of a live show that can't be duplicated.

Maybe you could dip your toes in the water by waiting for groups that have higher concentrations of female fans to have shows near you? Maybe it's just the bands I like, but I've never had a particularly bad experience with other metalheads. If anything, they've been more respectful and polite than the average moid I am forced to interact with in public. The worst has been dudes being kind of inconsiderate of others' personal space, but that happens in any crowded venue. I can't speak to racism, but at most of the shows I go to the crowd is pretty diverse.

>>298595
It is kind of an odd combination, but it's not that uncommon for record labels to group random acts together if they have somewhat similar demographics and it's probably pretty hard to figure out who to group with Ignea since their sound is pretty unique. I think the most similar to Ignea in that lineup is probably Ghosts of Atlantis but the vocal style is totally different.

So jealous you get to see Ignea, they have become one of my favorite bands in the past few months. I live in America so I will probably not be seeing them anytime soon, especially with what's going on in Ukraine right now.

So Kamelot came out with a new album recently. I almost feel like it could have been called "Haven reloaded" because most of the songs sound like their previous albums, especially Haven. I'm not even really complaining since I loved Haven, but I still felt like it could have been more original. That being said this album has some excellent songs on it, my favorite one is Eventide, and I guess it's ties with Opus of the Night which is a sequel to Ghost Opera. As someone who was a big fan of Ghost Opera back in the day the song made me kind of emotional. I wish they would have made an actual video for it hough, not just a lyric video. Missed opportunity.

Epica is my favorite band of all time, they have been for 10 years. I finally got to see them live for the first time last year in NY (I don't live there) last year on their tour with Sabaton. It was pretty amazing, that being said I got there only like 10 minutes before the show due to taking the wrong subway, also the line outside was insane, so I didn't get to be as close to the stage as I wanted. Apparently Epica almost didn't make it to that show because their van/bus broke down. Also the concert was only an hour. Simone sounded pretty good, although her voice sounded much higher to me than it does in recordings, but I took some videos and in the videos her voice sounds like it usually does, so idk what was up with that.

New single from Unleash the Archers. The song/album is about AI. This video was made with an AI generator from art from a single artist. Not sure how to feel since it's not my favorite subject but the song is really good

Last time I went to a black metal show (Wolves in the Throne Room), there was a troon (obviously dressed in skimpy clothes, no women were dressed like him) everyone was eyeing him and making fun of him. He was alone with no friends. I saw him walking to the women's bathroom and women were waiting outside for him to come out.

AI videos are so fucking ugly.

I think the video looks great, it says it's "Created in Unreal Engine 5 and animated in Stable Diffusion with AI models trained on the licensed artwork of a single artist." Not entirely sure what specifically that means, but it wasn't totally made with AI at any rate, at least it's not like images mashed together with midjourney or something. Then again I'm not super into animation though, I prefer music videos with real people, so I'm usually not one to judge whether animation is good or bad.

But yeah, it's a topic I'm tired of hearing about, I wish they had picked a different one. Still looking forward to the new album though. Hopefully they will make another album soon after. They were on hiatus for a while because the lead singer had a baby last year.

The backgrounds are really nice, but the characters with the constantly moving parts and folds in clothing that move even when they're standing still is going to look so dated in a few years.

Heve you nonas heard of Helvete aka Noseblood records had a huge fire recently. They’re currently collecting on their gofund me. I just wonder if they have no insurance? Maybe the fire is no accident and insurance won’t give them anything?

The thing is that Noseblood doesn’t seem to be active on social media themselves so the shares for the gofundme are mostly from bands. So nobody really knows what was saved or what exactly was damaged. I’m gonna tinfoil and say it’s an attempt at insurance fraud.

I listened to some Death albums and really liked the instrumental, but the style of the vocals is not for me, even knowing that the vocalist was very praised… Maybe check out Morbid Angel? The embedded song is my favorite one by them, but it's not really a metal song.

>>372510
Well, I'm not that good at describing music but I found that the albuns are very consistent with each other (not sure about their earlier work, i did not get into it), so if you didn't like Trauma you might not like True Power too. Each album got 13 songs, which I think is a lot, some of them fell a bit filler-y, I only loved about 5 songs from each. Overall, Trauma sounds a little sadder than True Power, but honestly most songs would fit into both of them, to me.

trying to find all the music i had on an old computer that died recently, finally remembered this god-tier album after searching through bolt thrower soundalikes. i wouldn't consider a lot of death metal bands to be pinnacles of poetic lyricism but these guys are actually pretty good. hope someone else enjoys.

Which sites do you guys buy your patches/pins from especially for licensed merch? I hate bootlegs because the quality is never comparable, they always peel or fray. Sorry to anyone that buys from that South American dude kek. Hell's Headbangers and Riffs are legit, Razorray's is mostly bootleg but his embroidered patches are decent. I lost all my bookmarks recently, had so many shops I wanted to check out that sold OOP/underground band merch, there was one that had really cool shaped ones for sale but fuck if I can remember what it was called.

I don't have any patches, I want to start collecting them though and maybe sew them onto a denim jacket or something. I know indiemerchstore has some for the bands I like. I also see them at concerts when I go to them, but merch is so expensive I usually have to pick just one thing (usually a shirt) I was lucky enough to attend the first night of Milwaukee Metal Fest but was too broke to even get a shirt kek.

I love BG, but what was the point of this? They just re-recorded Somewhere Far Beyond for no apparent reason. It sounds live but it's not. I don't think it sounds terrible but the original was fine. If you wanted to hear this you could just listen to a live performance.

Black Magick SS is back under another name, sound is closer to their early EPs but they seem to have completely ditched the Thule society aesthetics in favor of their last album's space spergery.
