Music when training

[El Freako]

I like Death metal (but don't know much about it), Fear Factory, Slayer, Slipknot, Nightwish (not with the new singer though, she's shit) and Atreyu...

Am I a metal whore?

Death
Nothing amazing, it would probably either grow on me or annoy me over time.


Morbid Angel
Annoying and so cliche; I mean a pentagram on his shirt? Plus they are trying too hard to be heavy.

Nile
Pretty ordinary


Amon Amarth
Enjoyed this one. I have heard some of their stuff before but never given it a proper listen.


hope you enjoyed! even Tim, what do you think of these?

I had a computer left at our rental place that was loaded with mp3s (no porn :crymeariver. I grabbed a whole lot of it and gave it a listen. The only stuff I kept was the symphonic metal that I now own on CD. The rest smacked of teenager listening tastes. I.e. "I listen to this to be cool, but I still have the greatest hits of Queen and Elton John that have the highest rating as that is what I usually listen to". I think that this pretty much sums up death metal, in fact all metal. Take away all the gesturing and pomp and what you are left with is a handfull of bands that are wearing a label that could really just be heavy rock.

Morbid angel helped invent heavy its only cliche if another band does it :wutyousay:

Most people do listen to Metal for those exact reasons IMO. I can admit that when i was getting into it i was the same. but ive since grown to love it.

The thing about most REAL death metal bands, is that they arent posers (everyone poses for promo pictures lol thats not the point). They are normal guys with long hair and bandshirts on. The stuff that is good, is VERY RARELY played on ANY metal related radio or television show. Its the stuff that is cliched and whatnot that gets attention (god knows why )

Regardless of wether they started it, it is lame to have the petagram on your shirt "Ooooo I'm so hardcore I have a symbol on my chest!"

But yeh I thought that there would be a difference between what gets played and monikered as Death Metal and what is the favoured bands by the real adherants. So many bands that get radio play are just slick marketing to sell an image. Wait and see how many are still played in 5yrs let alone 20yrs later (Limpbizkit anyone?).

A heard a great analogy for metal by a radio DJ in Aust. Metal is like a good curry. Most people find it too hot and burn their tongue. But once you get used to it you find all the subtle tastes and flavours while still enjoying that heat.

hehe i like that description... suits it really.

 

[Mygeeto]

with enough listening Tim you'll understand Death Metal is one of the richest genre's of music around and you'll start to like it

if your worried about posing... keep away from Black Metal. that shit... man dont even get me started on it. i will forever live with the shame of knowing i was a Black Metal fan.


ohhh and at Nile's drummer being ordinary he's got to be one of the best in the entire world!

 

[jwill0214]
