The Jester Race is the VH1 version of Slaughter of the Soul. In Flames are not a poorly-done, warmed over Iron Maiden or Artillery; In Flames are the type of lame sing-along lite rock that can otherwise be found on the heavier Motley Crue LPs. The closest comparison I can think of would actually be the speed metal influenced Skid Row – Slave to the Grind but In Flames have more estrogen in their bloodstream. Medical literature reports that listeners testicles retreat into the body cavity upon hearing the opening riff. To make an In Flames album one must merely kidnap five relatively sane beer metal fans in Iron Maiden t-shirts, inject them with potent cocktails of various benzodiazepines, and buy them an afternoon of studio time. The Jester Race is what would result. In Flames were not a band who wanted to kill everyone like Metallica in 1983, rather they were the assholes in Animal House with the acoustic guitar attempting to make New Wave of British Heavy Metal music a few years later for born again Christians. In Flames are the Swedish Stryper.

How actually fucked is your reading comprehension? I'm not claiming anywhere those are melodeath. I'm saying death metal can be (and is) melodic without the melodeath tropes of being saccharine and pop structures.

>melo is all around shit, you don't need to be saccharine and stand on pop structure crutches to be melodic
Demigod have plenty of leads that can be considered melodic despite the band not being melodic death metal, he never implied they were MDM, in fact he's making a case for why they really aren't.

Holy shit 5 votes for melodeath, FIVE. Last thread it was only 4 (I say only but the fact that 4 people picked melodeath is astounding). Who are these people? Seriously identify yourself if you're one of those 5. I'd be less appalled if djent, nu-metal or deathcore was an option that got 5 votes, at least then you're showing your true colors that you're just a mallcore kid who's trying to hang out with the big boys. But fucking melodeath. Out of every subgenre to pick from in metal 5 people picked melodeath. Is there some untapped reservoir of legendary melodeath bands that we've all been completely blind to? Are there thousands of actually god-tier melodeath bands out there that unbeknownst to all of us have been pushing out quality releases since the genre's inception? Because right now Intestine Baalism and Arghoslent stand undisputed as the kings of the genre, and even they aren't that good. So for fuck's sake, let one of the five insane madmen come out from the shadows and announce to the rest of the thread their love for melodeath because I'm completely shocked that 1 person, let alone 5, would dare even CONSIDER placing melodeath as their favorite metal subgenre when asked such a question.

Death Metal with melody > Melodic "Death Metal"
>>74791041
Genre?
How much of a fucking fag do you have to be to consider melodic "death metal" your favorite metal subgenre? If you want melody just listen to power metal or traditional metal Jesus Christ, I will never understand why someone wants to listen to bargain bin Maiden riffs with raspy grunts for vocals. Or listen to bouncy downtuned radio rock that has Eurovision-tier choruses.

I want to like Revenge but I can't hear the guitar over the drums.
Quick, what's the most revolutionary, genre-defining, unique and daring release of the past seven years??

>>74795073
Altar of Plagues
>>74795219
And now an explanation as to why you chose that
>>74795235
Traditional Heavy Metal
>>74795219
>sludge/doom
>relevant at all in the 2010s
>>74795235
Cathedral 1993-1997
>>74795235
Salmes Lott
>>74795275
It's unique and innovative without being gimmicky or sacrificing heaviness. Someone who had never listened to Doom before could listen to it and "get" the genre, but it still sounds distinct.
There's probably a better answer, but all the better answers I could think of are memes at this point.

Yeah but how
>>74790171
>To make an In Flames album one must merely kidnap five relatively sane beer metal fans in Iron Maiden t-shirts, inject them with potent cocktails of various benzodiazepines, and buy them an afternoon of studio time. The Jester Race is what would result.

DMU drones
Just now getting into Ancst and Young and In the Way. Any other Blackened Crust suggestions
>>74795421
The main innovation is the use of violins as a melodic counterpoint for the guitar (or as texturing when the guitar is the melodic lead), which creates an elegant, sorrowful atmosphere that's still sonically forceful, and also prevents the long compositions from becoming too monotonous and droning.

what the fuck problem do they have with The Jester Race
I get a 502 when trying to access dark-world
reassure me, /metal/
tell me it'll come back
Blackgrass anybody? Panopticon is dope.
>>74795647
Yautja
Admittedly they're more sludge than black, but the drummer also plays in a BM band called Mutilation Rites and he totally steals the show for me, so I think I can get away with reccing it
>>74795595
knock it off
we do not condone the murder of police officers here
who by the way, are risking their necks protecting your civil liberties
>>74795698
I'll check 'em out, sludge and crust go hand in hand anyway. Love me some blackened sludge. I'm especially partial to coffinworm. And lord mantis.

It's not just "Doom metal with violins", they adapted their style around that so it sounds natural. Like I already said though, there's probably lots of better answers, it's just that that's the only one I could think of that's not already a meme.
>>74795820
Are there, like, no new styles or even subgenres at all? Just... crossovers, eclecticism and tiny variations on an old theme? No new words like how "thrash", "black" and "death" were new lexicon once?
Have we been scrapping the proverbial bottom of the barrel for seven years now?
Are Antifa gonna shut down the Inquisition tour?
>>74794950
>revolutionary
can't think of a single "revolutionary" album
maybe ecailles de lune or sunbather
>genre-defining
also sunbather
>unique
obviously i could just name some ridiculous experimental bedroom project, but instead i'll go with paracletus
>daring
paracletus

I don't know why this is surprising to you. The last "real" genres to form (black metal, sludge/stoner metal, industrial metal) all started in the nineties, over twenty years ago. And even then, that stuff was an evolution of earlier music. Black metal pioneers wedded neoclassical tremolo riffs to death metal brutality, and bands like Kyuss and Sleep revived the psychedelic jams of the late '60s. At the end of the day nothing in art is truly new, everyone takes from somewhere. Enjoy the things that are good and don't worry too much about what's cutting edge or not.
>>74796043
lol no
>>74794950
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAlvPEAiGl4
literally revolutionary, genre-defining, unique, and daring
>>74796065
Hey, that's a pretty good outlook to have, man. Respect.
>>74796043
Why would they, Inqu aren't NSBM depsite being well loved by the people within the NSBM scene
>>74796049
actually daring and unique could have been some gay liturgy album now that i think about it
>>74796112
Because they threw a shitfit when the band was merely accused of being Nazis and having Nazi ties.
>>74795794
stop shilling your dogshit band
>>74796065
>Enjoy the things that are good and don't worry too much about what's cutting edge or not.
It's just that I can't enjoy all the stuff that's been coming out lately since it all seems derivative and tiresomely familiar. Everything's either a revival or "hey, you know this album? well it's that, but *more*. Why bother discovering new releases at all if none can offer me something that hasn't been offered already?
>>74796049
I guess I'll settle with Paracletus. That's as good an answer as I'm going to get.
>>74796113
>gay liturgy
I'd listen to that
>>74796185

It might be time to take a break from metal then, friend. You could try exploring other rock genres, like punk or prog, or just go all the way off the deep end and try to get into hip hop or something.
>>74796148
what are they doing about pic related?
besides headbang to angel of death, because we all know they're digging that raw old school sound
>>74796213
I'm constantly exploring everything all the time, and other genres aren't exactly doing better.
Lately I've just decided it's a much more valuable use of my time to focus on the past, go back as far as I can. There are centuries of music waiting for me to discover and the present's just shitting its pants.
>>74794950
Genre defining is at odds with the rest of your buzzwords.
>>74796239
explain
A genre-defining album like Black Sabbath's debut or Venom's Black Metal WERE revolutionary, unique and daring when they came out.
Recc some southern metal
DEVIL'S BREATH IS MY BONG
Is Sacred Reich worth checking out?
>>74796466
if you're into thrash, probably.
>>74794950
Voices of Steel, but that's almost 10 years ago tho
>>74792500
>>74796695
>good
pic related is a mediocre travesty
>>74790829
whats that album between blood and goatbenis?

Leprous - Bilateral
I didn't even realise akercocke was making a new album and it's actually pretty good
>>74796049
bait
>>74795647
You need Akatharsia in your life m8. Their last record is AOTYSF
>>74792306
He would be a faggot, thats all
>>74790066
>>74795666
Holy shit satan are you ok
>>74796213
>Break up from meal
Unironically the ultimate numale advice, go back to subrosa and deafheaven, you will always think le metal isbdead because you are a brainlet that can't access the good stuff
