The I'm listening to today Metal edition Thread

[DCI]

LOL, I've always considered the heavy, melodic metal to be this generations version of old school classical, especially with so many artists now really exploring the 7 string guitar, drop "D" tuning, etc.

Agreed man. Not into this newnmetal shouty to light riffs and lyrics just doesnt match up for me mainly.

[Igifuno]

Also, I wish Tool would jump thrkigh whatever hoops they have to get their new album released. Seems like it had been almost a decade.

Yeah that have all that legal crap going on. Maynard has a band out right now called Puscifer. Check em out, they're pretty good.

[Igifuno]

I'm going out on a limb and say that Slayer's South of Heaven" album was one of my "go to" favorites in my younger lifting days. Also, a couple of the older Death Angel tunes.

Man that's not out on a limb at all, easily one of my favorites as well. Classic.

How that album builds and the way they laid out the tracks in it are amazing. Fukin love that album. Its a great one to listen to as it builds and is recorded really well too.

Modern metal is recorded awfully.

Maynard stepped into the recording booth in October for the new Tool album; instrumentals are all but done. As soon MJK is done -- whenever that may be -- they'll be done. Album release date isn't set, but they're saying "early" 2016, for whatever that's worth.

A lot of bands are going even lower, playing drop-a. That's when that deep, heavy, double-chug sound comes into play. Slipknot uses it quite a bit.

That's a mean jam right there. I wonder if you'd like Ghost. Used to be called Ghost BC I believe. Check these guys out. I'm not a big fan but they've been out for a few years and they have got some good stuff and have huge following.

Only listened a few of their songs previously so will fire on an album and see what the deal is

Only 7 strings?

Yeah, after hearing Steve Swanson out of 6 feet under at a NAMM show a few years back and what he can do with a 7 string Jackson, no more is needed, IMO. I'm not much for Chris Barnes vocals but Steve Swanson can rip off some nasty stuff. He's the main reason I listen to 6 Feet Under.

RIP Lemmy. Had the pleasure of seeing Motörhead live for the first time about 3 years ago at Mayhem Fest. Big loss to the metal world. Legend.

TMZ

Just saw the news.


I remember seeing Motorhead in a small underground club in Atlanta late '80s I think. They put on a great show. It was a wild, weird club that was mainly punk during the week.Huge floor to ceiling chainlink fence separated the bar side from the stage/mosh/stage diving side. LOL, I went to tap a kidney and the urinals were full and the sinks were being used as a toilet. I kicked open the door to oe of the stalls and someone had lowered the lid and dropped a steamy duece right on top of the lid. Someone had "drydocked" the other crapper. Finally was able to get to pisser.
Think the wife had more fun tripping on people than I did.

[DCI]

Lol AG sounds like a Motorhead concert all right. Friend of mine saw them round the 80s too they were and still are one of the loudest bands you can listen to live their PA's are meant to be huge ha.

Rip Lemmy a great loss but tbh I'm amazed he lasted so long esp after all the drugs he took.

Listening to some Tool here the Undertow album and there hasn't been a song I have dis liked. Really like their heavy and fast basslines and the drumming is class too.

[DCI]

Metallica and symphony surprisingly is very good found this album buried will listen tonight properly on my stereo and report back

[Igifuno]

S&M is indeed a good one. Haven't listened to that in a good while.

[Igifuno]

I think I'll throw on some Motörhead today in honor of the late, great Lemmy.

[Bio-Active]

Seether karma effect this morning

[DCI]

S&M is indeed a good one. Haven't listened to that in a good while.

It is not bad buddy. I like the way the orchestra just adds to the sound

[DCI]

Today is a Thin Lizzy day.

[Metalject]

Lamb of God for me this morning and a combo of LOG and the mighty Pantera in the gym.

The LOG and Pantera combo is as good as it gets in the gym. LOG is pretty much a standard for me every training session. As far as Pantera, I can listen to nothing but 5 Minutes Alone on a loop the entire time and be just fine with it.

Decent list. What's their top albums of the year?

Decent list. What's their top albums of the year?

I don't think they publish one on LM. One of the DJs had his own personal Devils Dozen but I don't see it posted.

[Igifuno]

Check out this dandy from Stone Sour with Lizzy Hale on the backup vocals. This is a bold and well done remake right here.
