Problem ( my opinion) here are really the religious bodies, authorities and religious nut cases giving metal a bad name. Iron Maiden and other metal songs were playing on the radio in malaysia when i grew up and look at where we are now ?

without metal concerts, malaysians are deprived of not only entertainment but also the income for people managing, running and selling the concerts itself.

i never listen to radio at all but i get your point. it takes balls to do that now with the surge of conservatism practice

What are you guys listening to now

what new bands have you guys discovered this year

never heard of enforcer before.

anyways, how do you guys discover new music nowadays?

hmn...not my cuppa

Be'lakor and Noumena not bad!!!

Actually what was the story with queensryche and geof ?

Akhlys is not bad that never expected to hear a band like this from USA.

Sounds a bit like emperor in the early days

very hard to find bands that still do atmospheric metal like old emperor/cod/bathory but also intense.

anyways, what are your top 5 albums this year ?

WOW.....all power metal

Motorhead is more rock n roll than metal but still, lemmy has an influence on the metal scene.

What I like about motorhead is how almost none of their albums sounds the same. They just keep evolving.

Ok back to metal, im currently listening to Deluge...

Quite interesting black/atmospheric from france.

Oh yeah, dont bother google for deluge cos got another rock band with the same name....lol

SG dollar at an all time high and with so much uncertainty in 2016 for us malaysians, i wont be going to see nightwish also....

currently, im listening heavily to devin townsend project....


i just realised that there is another METAL thread in KOPITIAM , no wonder our metal thread so quiet...hahahah....

i am probably the only guy tat never buys tour tshirt. i always find the quality quite appaling. ( yes, i know the band makes money from them but can't they make better ones!??)

Megadeth ? mate , there is so many better new bands that have come along - Fleshgod Apocalpyse, Avatarium , Amorphis, .... the list goes on...so many choices nowadays.

Stumbled upon this on spotify....was really surprised that COF decided to remake all their hits from the first 3 albums..... the quality production is definitely better and some changes to the arrangements + added vocals....

let me check it out.

Hello everyone
What's your top 10 metal album for 2016 ?

Never thought I will see metal here.....lol

Hahaha not really bro.
If you follow her segment, you will understand thats how she sets up her story for viewers to give context.

Plus this segment is probably published before the tweet.

Anyways, I no longer find slayer relevant. Their new materials is really....uugghhh....

Unlike Kreator that seems to have gone through a rebirth since violent revolution. Their songs are getting better that I been.going back to them constantly on spotify.

Pass. I have moved on from.megadeth/metalica/old 90s bands that failed to evolved. It is kinda surprising that kreator, marty friedman continues to evolve and sorta experienced a.rebirth to.their careers and.musical ambition
