Great idea for a thread! I knew there were more of us than just Abbath and Polyglot. Just a few bullet points to clear some thoughts from my head:
- Agent Orange SLAYS! Great pick. Highly recommend M-16 from Sodom's discography - solid thrash from the 21st century
- @AngryLittleAlchemist: Funny story; I've seen you on sputnik from reading Alice in Chains review threads lol (as a lurker) so can we both agree that Dirt is top 5 all time?
- As a metalhead I'm all over the map. If I had to pick top 5 bands I'd choose Neurosis, Opeth, Converge, Alice in Chains and Death. Only 2 "metal" bands out of that bunch lol. I'm open to almost everything, and listen to bands that match my activity. Dismember/Pig Destroyer for working out, Opeth for the autumn, Paradise Lost/Alice in Chains for driving etc
I'd like to recommend some under the radar modern bands for those with similar tastes:
Do you like Opeth? Be'lakor are a great Australian band with a similar flavor.
Do you like Gorguts/Immolation? Ulcerate (from New Zealand) are almost like a child of the two bands.
What would Fear Factory sound like with a few more Duracell batteries? Artificial Brain
*edit* actually they just sing gurgle about robots that's the only similarity
A fan of technical thrash like Coroner? Vektor are your choice:
I'll pick through the thread and see if there are any other recs I can make
