Suffocation
Iced Earth
Kamelot
Morbid Angel
Slayer
Exodus
Testament
Anthrax
And, much, much more. However, that little list is more than enough to prove my point.
E: My "whatchu talkin bout Willis" disappeared. :\
Incorrect. Although I will admit that I'm inclined to agree with Kamelot sucking, power metal kinda grates on my nerves.Kenko said:Most of those suck balls. Apart from Iced Earth and Slayer.
...so we're clear that I don't really think he's a fucktard, right? And that I wasn't expecting anyone to take it seriously?

Ha, the ol' quiet lovely guitar interlude followed by stupidly heavy trick eh?FinalHeart95 said:Protest the Hero? Periphery? SikTh? DEVIN TOWNSEND? TOOL??? WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?! Seriously, I love all of those bands/artists, Periphery and Protest the Hero especially.Outright Villainy said:I do what I always do when looking for good Metal: Go a little deeper than whatever's on the music channels. I can't stand Disturbed and their Ilk. Of modern metal, by far my favourite bands are Protest the hero and Periphery, though SikTh have been doing similar stuff a few years ago and went criminally unnoticed.
Then of course there's Devin Townsend or Tool who I can always rely on for a masterclass album every time.
To me, a lot of bands could be considered metal. Although some of the more prog metal bands can get really soft at times, even prog DEATH metal bands. I love throwing my non-metalhead friends with that stuff. A personal favorite of mine is playing Breathe In, Breathe Out by BTBAM and having it lead into Roboturner... just look up the songs to see what I'm talking about. XD
Tell that to Phil Anselmo.AccursedTheory said:You can't scream into a mike for decades at a time.

Or Robb Flynn. Since Machine head released their first album 16 years ago, he sounds even angrier these days.

He was 19 when he joined Pantera, the best metal band of our times. He's now 42, and still going strong.
Having said that, he's probably one of the rare metal musicians who hasnt gone "soft"
Good call. The most recent album is savage. Butstill has time for floaty guitar solos and epic intros. Which is nice.Outright Villainy said:Or Robb Flynn.
