This is Equilibrium. They are my favorite band. =D

I'm huge into prog stuff, like Between the Buried And Me and Dream Theater.
I also love GWAR and Alice Cooper. [top 5 in that order]

I'm surprised to see a lot of nu-metal lovers. I personally think that nu-metal serves only as a precursor to the heavier stuff. But because metal is such a broad genre of music, the fact that there's something for everbody.

I agree completely, i honestly can't see what the fuss is about. Same for Slayer and Dream Theater.
lol and just as quickly we must disagree, you mentioned two bands i would give the "fuckin a" medal to, especially dream theatre solely on account of john petrucci an extremely technical guitarist
See, i know he's amazing, but technical skill alone cannot make me like a band. Their music just seems to be them jumping up and down saying 'look at what we can do, we're so talented.' There doesn't seem to be any real substance to their music. I'd take Machine Head over them anyday.
That's dragonforce. Dream Theater is just a band that plays really well together. John Myung is probably my favorite bass player. And the drummer is one of the best I've seen. It's not just petrucci, it's the band being an amazing lineup.
Don't you mean StudioForce? AMIRITE?

I like some metal stuff, such as:

Sepultura (when Max was in the band)
Fear Factory
Soulfly
Womnal (I doubt anyone will have heard of them, they are from Melbourne)

There are some others, but I can't be bothered to type them...

Has anyone got Behemoths new EP? It's only got one new song but its still pretty good.
They've released a one song EP? What's the point?

It does seem slightly ridiculous. Then again, the new song's quite good. Nice to know they're still writing stuff. I hope they do something different for their next album, The Apostasy was pretty much the same as Demigod.

Disturbed
Slipknot
Korn
Bullet for my valentine
and sometimes linkin park if im in the mood.
I am hereby banning these bands from my thread. I don't care what you think of them, this thread is for metal, not dumbed down radio friendly stuff. I can just about cope with Slipknot and Bullet, but linkin park? Are you kidding me?
If linkin park or korn ever appear in here again, i'm going to go all Hitler and start killing people.
What about Disturbed? Disturbed are good, if you don't want to hear about Disturbed I may just need to cut your ears off.

They're mediocre, overly-catchy modern radio rock. Definitely not a metal band, and while they're not horrifically bad, they're not what I'd call "good" either.

Couldn't have put it better myself. Talk about them in this thread if you really want to, but don't expect anyone to talk back. And don't be surprised if you get hit with huge amounts of flame.

Fair enough; not like their any Metallica or Maiden. But doesn't mean that I don't like them.

Course it doesn't, i've nothing at all wrong with you liking them. Each to his own and all that. I personally can't stand them. Apart from ten thousand fists, that's ok.
