It's not even really power metal. Just heavy metal with viking themes. If it was power metal Quorthon wound sound like a faggot and there would be wanky guitar solos throughout the songs.

I like the riffing but the guitar tone is too clean for those vocals, either clean up the vocals or dirty up the guitar

Didn't like the first song very much. Sounds like beginner melody, the hook in the main riff sounds very uninspired. The vocals are pretty good still.
Really liked the second song. A bit underdeveloped but as expected from a first record. Impressive playing (at least for a pleb like myself).
Third one, kind of a mix between the two.
Overall, pretty good. If the cover was meant to be like Darkthrone 2 tone style, picrelated is what you had to go for

>>74287159
There are good band, and I'll never get the comparisons to nu metal or grunge because unlike either of those genres Acid Bath has always been very riff driven.
>>74288144
You probably need that 90s industrial influenced stuff like Godflesh's post-Streetcleaner stuff, KMFDM, Strapping Young Lad, and Fear Factory.
Anaal Nathrakh sorta has this very slick electronic music inspired production but with raw, intense riffs.
There's also Whourkr who make grindy metal with breakcore inspired drums.

Because it sounds good. Here's some of my favorite edits https://youtu.be/1tpdj380Stg
Sounds like stoner rock, right? Some genres of music are basically slowed down versions of other. Stoner = slowed down hard rock. Post punk is often just slow new wave in minor. And so on.
I once spent several evenings just toying around in Audacity. Decided to give it a go again, slowed down Slayer to sound like sludge

>>74290492

>>74290581
And black metal is surf rock with distortion

rec bands that play faster paces fast trad doom like pentagram

>>74290514
Actually if you speed up Melvins, it sounds surprisingly like Slayer. Heck, slower Slayer songs are much like doom/sludge—after all they all use the same "satanic" scale and melodies.

Yeah it's ok, but it could as well been played by any other guitarist and not lose much (or even gain something). The composition is nothing special, the solo sounds like pure wank I was talking about, unmemorable harmonizing over the same chords.
Randy Rhoads in one improvised solo could make more interesting stuff than in 1 Yngwie album. See Suicide Solution solo from Randy Rhoads Tribute, for example.

Yeah, that's what I mean. I actually like a lot of other neoclassical/speed metal more than what Malmsteen does. Maybe he's absolute best on technical level, and I haven't heard all of his work of course. But literally all of his songs that I've heard left me yawning.
I mean, it's ok if he showcases his talents. But you'd think with such a knowledge of guitar and classical music, he would know how to write a good song, right? But it's the opposite of that.

Misfits are at least not complete MTV trash of the alternative era.
What I never get is how people stay listening to the same entry-level bands for years. I assumed most people move on. E.g., if you enjoy Tool, you'll probably eventually realize that there are simply greener pastures that music has to offer.
Then again, some people listen to Grateful Dead for years.

Well I'd assume they know a thing or two about musical theory, have listened to more than 1 classical piece, etc. etc. I mean, people who can barely play are writing better songs. Or at least less boring songs.
And also, every time I hear his music, it's like the guitar is kinda in the background. I just can't concentrate on it. Honestly I often can't even tell if it's ebin guitar master playing it or just some invited Latin American kid who is paid $5.99 per session.

Why does Matt Heafy looks so asian?

>>74292855
not my favorite Pestilence and I didn't think the new Suffo was all that great, but aside from that, good shit. If you haven't already listened to Triptykon, you should, it's basically Monotheist: the band.

They played a show in oakland with deicide and a few other bands a few years ago. I would go see them again.

It's like Voice of Steel 2.0.

Definitely more Ukrainian folk influences. Hell, they even have some Tuvan throat singing on a few tracks.

However some songs tend to go on a bit more than they should. Not really that big of an issue though imo

Overall it's on par or slightly lesser. Still fucking great

Why are these two records considered nu male when they are jam packed with riffs and far more heavier/intense than the majority of music posted here?

There's some weird animosity from metalheads toward post-hardcore in general, see the dislike for djent and sludge.

Thou - Heathen
It's something between black metal and sludge.
>>74297010
Converge isn't post-hardcore at all though. There's like one track on Jane Doe that has a slight post-hardcore influence, and that's only because it's bass driven.

It's an execution chair. Thus the title of the record. Are you fucking retarded?

>metal for this feel
some Linkin Park, probably. You don't belong in this community.

Which of the main genres of metal is your favorite genre?

>compounding progressive with experimental and avant-garde
fucking retard

>>74297114
they're a metalcore band dude. or metallic hardcore if you feel that metalcore is a dirty word. either fits. but definitely not post-hardcore. at all.

>>74296810
Cause anything core-influenced gets hated

>>74297242
Similar approaches to songwriting, and lots of overlaps with bands like Arcturus, Ocean Machine, and Maudlin Of The Well/Kayo Dot.

>>74297242
they're all nu-male genres anyway

>>74297296
>avant-garde and experimental are genres
Dunno about that.

yfw 3 japanese teens are heavier than your favorite band

>>74297295
the faggy extremecuck shit you posted has nothing in common with Fates Warning, Psychotic Waltz, Crimson Glory and Savatage

>>74297335
Literally pop

>>74297343
Except stuff like use of techniques like counterpoint, a variety of time sig changes, varying structures that have more instrumental based parts rather than extreme metal style riff-offs, they often layer their arrangements with other stuff, etc. Not every prog metal band even sounds like the cheesy flower power shit you posted, either.

>>74297401
Then why not label your category Progressive/Experimental/Avant-garde/Power, you fucking faggot
You have have clear and consistent categories with no mutually exclusive conditions when constructing surveys, else you'll end up garbage data because you're a shitpoor researcher
also,
>flower power
I didn't list any yuropoor flower metal, but I'll rec some to you since you're a fucking faggot, holy shit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WsP1MDLOdA

>>74297452
There's not enough of a difference between what's often called experimental or avant garde metal in the genre for them to be separated from prog though.

Why would I put Power Metal in there? Power metal, while initially being somewhat close to the Prog Metal scene, developed its own completely different sound. That's the dumbest shit on the planet.

You were already autistic enough to start this argument with me essentially proving the negative stereotype attached to metal fans, but this is next level shit.

Now you intend to present your findings on the metal community that had nothing to do with your stated survey question

It's 4chan, not an academic journal. At this point I really hope you're trolling and will give you the benefit of doubt there, because it's autists like you that make metal look so cringeworthy to outsiders.

>>74294339
Thrash is already heavily punk influenced metal, I'd say crossover is heavily metal influenced punk.

>>74294395

Why do people hate this album?

>>74296810
I know that breakdowncore was a pretty annoying trend. The problem i've had with the numale shit is you basically tell kids that playing braindead breakdowns for a whole measure is all it takes and the creativity that could have came out is gone. That said, bands like parkway drive and converge are pretty great exceptions to the rule.

>>74297823
predispositions towards sots and an inability to get songs not in ababab structure

>>74297936
parkway drive is the epitome of 'breakdowncore'

Why is this one so divisive when it's almost as good as TRITSIO

>>74298145
This isn't the general consensus at all

>>74298162
A lot of people who enjoyed TRITSIO think the second album is big step down, even when the songwriting is almost on par.

More stuff like Paysage d'Hiver?

Only in a guilt by association way that anything with an ultra-modern production seems to earn. They have riffs for days. They don't tend to lean on the whole "mosh on que" schtick that a lot of the guys in the past decade had to to let the kiddies know it was okay to mosh. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_hUI_fbKe8&list=PLA46_oIZVPnWuKxT93_ZbnWJpVvEHvRI9&index=2
