try out mastodon.black metal.i kinda like their -sleeping giant-

hello gang- finally got some new cds last nite
1) cradle of filth - thornography
2)TO/DIE/FOR -epilogue
3) InFlames-Come Clarity
4) Helloween (Old skool!) - keeper of the 7 keys pt 1

Quick review-
To/Die/For - consistent quality and pace as what you can expect from this band. very very fast,melodic and gothic. 8.5/10
Inflames- back to their roots! fast and hard but still no growling vocals 8.5/10

ive also sampled few others but not enuf budget to buy
fear factory - transgression ( didnt like the direction they are heading - seems like they are going the same path as slayer musically? i might be wrong cos i dint listen to the whole album)

Old Man Child= i was totally blown away! aggresive and melody ! i have to start collecting their albums now.

oh yeah- got these cds from prangin mall- there is a shop that sells nothing but metal cds + dvds

i have listened to trivium's crusade.. imho ascendancy is much better.. i like their old style of music.. like ascendancy & ember to inferno..

Darkest Hour is metal?

Atreyu n Bleeding Through is coolest metal band.....

Trivium <--recommended
but one of my alltime favourite is Averse Sefira      hail black metal        hail pakcik paku!!!    

p/s looking for Riusignal own version of "Pontianak" solo riff. PM me if got the mp3. I think most of otai would probably heard the solo.

looking for a grind stuff?? currently listen to this band

-birdflesh
-Cerebral Turbulency
-Haemorrhage
-Regurgitate
-The County Medical Examiners
-f***.. im dead
-Sayyadina
-General Surgery

carcass is one of the pioneer in grindcore.

God I hate grind music. One album 20 tracks of 1-2 minute songs. Every song sounding the same and dunno what the heck the vocalist is grunting. I don't know how you differentiate different grind bands either. Play me a song each from 5 different bands and it'll all sound the same to me. My opinion. =  )

New In Flames and Soilwork is lousy. Stabbing The Drama is a horrible album. Very commercial la.

Didn't like Lamb Of God's As The Palaces Burn. I thought the production made it very unlistenable. The drums sounded like hitting paper cups and the guitars were washed out. I loved Ashes of The Wake though. I heard that LoG re-released their old album. too bad can't get over here.

Fear Factory - I wouldn't recommend Obsolete and Digimortal. Go listen to Soul of A New Machine and my all time favorite, Demanufacture. Their latest, Archetype is quite good too.

Burzum - Don't like. One man in a band working from prison...Bleh...

And yes, I agree that Slayer is the No. 1 trash band of all time. Beats Metallica anytime.

I'm into Quo Vadis and Sentenced lately, go check them out. = )

i am more into old stuff... 

anybody remembers:

pungent stench - modD got the only album which will make my collection complete
terrorizer - jesse pintado, david vincent, pete sandoval earlier band before joining/forming napalm death and morbid angel
repulsion - one of the grindcore pioneer
gorguts - it's like a combination of obituary vocals with morbid angel heavines
pestilence - nice blend of melodic metal back then
fear factory - 1st album rocks!
meshuggah - nice to listen to although the tempo a bit weird
infectious maggots - m'sian very own industrialist
catarrh - pahang very own death metal
ossuary - s'pore death metal/industrial
misery loves co. - swedish industrial band
cannibal corpse - love eaten back to live album
passenger - project band of anders friden (inflames) and niclas engelin (gardenian)

i forget this band
modar - m'sian 1st doom metal band

any band which is as good as Carcass ??? Looking for some grind metal here

not forgetting those who couldn't affort a leather jacket would opt for checked shirt instead. yup those happening 90's era. back then all of the kids were united. no segregation between punks, black, death, etc.

but glam rock was a major no no
some people might mistook them with stamping ground.
