Metallica is classic.someonehairy-ish said:Considering metal itself has been influenced by almost everything at some point or another... you can take influences from pretty much anywhere and if you're skilled enough as a musician you can make them work.Deiphagia said:*snickers like a retard*someonehairy-ish said:metallica, slipknot, avenged sevenfold and lamb of god.
speeded up thrash metal with some tap/shred solos thrown in.
Seriously, you can't get metal influence from a non-metal band.
Also, which of those four isn't metal in your opinion? Lamb of god and metallica are Heavy metal and thrash, respectively, and slipknot and avenged sevenfold come under heavy metal or metalcore. I'm confuzzled...

Metalknot Sevengod.someonehairy-ish said:Pretty much what the title says. I'm in a metal band with our main influences from metallica, slipknot, avenged sevenfold and lamb of god. Currently, we sound like speeded up thrash metal with some tap/shred solos thrown in.
We only formed recently and have a few songs written and a couple of covers nailed as well, including a metalled up version of muse's hysteria. Everything has been going well and we're thinking of beginning to play some live shows soon. However, we still lack a name! It fell to me as our main songwriter to come up with a name but unfortunately, since my dad suggested 'Raymondo Klegg and his Amazing Whistling Ferrets' my brain just pops that up whenever I search for new ideas.
So, because I'm too lazy to do it myself; I'll ask if any of you at the escapist can think of a band name that would look suitable alongside the likes of Metallica and Lamb of God in the headlining spot of a metal festival- or just on the sign outside a club or bar. Suggestions for turning such a name into a brutal logo, or a mascot to rival eddie, would also be extremely welcome!
