Does anyone here like Black/Death Metal?

I love it!

Post your opinions and favourite bands!!

[Purple]

Of course I love metal! How can I not:biggrin:!

My favorite metal band is Children of Bodom(favorite song "Better off Dead!"-catchy name), and I also really like Cradle of Filth(favorite song "Doberman Pharao"-doesn't know what the hell that means...)

and of course I listen to Disturbed and Slayer and a bit by Evergrey.....


Metal Rules!!!

[SwedishCommie]

I love Cradle their singer is so cool!!
His name is Dani Filth i wish i could sing like him!!
The other bands are great to!

[Purple]

Hey, you're from Sweden, do you like Nirvana?? All sweden people I know listens to Nirvana... I'm considering getting a Nirvana tattoo soon...

Anyway, Cradle of Filth is one of the best metal bands that exists for the moment... I was in the record shop today and I listened to Dark Angel, or whatever it was called, and they were pretty good too;)! Anyway, I forgot to mention TRUST Company in my first post here... It's some type of nu-metal... Really good... I recommend it if you like Deftones or Tool.....


It's good to find other people that likes metal here on the board:cool:......

[Purple]

PS: your signature; is it RATM or somethin'?

[Invader Zim]

Some metals good, but a lot is shit. Nirvana's good but very over rated. Tool's excelent.

However im more into rock and indi rock. Manic Street Preachers, Placebo and the like. But i dont mind some good moshing music.

[Zombie]

Nirvana's metal?!?!?

[mentalbunny]

Well I have a few CoF CD's, they're ok. I'm going through a more punky moment currently but I like metal. Unfortunately my dc collection's just not up to scratch!

[truthaddict11]

I saw Swede death metalers The Haunted last week
i met the band afterwards it was awesome

Cradle is comming to my area in August i may go

[RTS]

im laughing every time i hear Cradle of filth. hear Mudvayne, Coal chamber, Deftones, Tool, fear Faktory, or if you got a very good taste of music then u will hear Rage Against the Machine, but thats not Metal

[deathdust]

Not sure if these are death metal bands (just got into them really): Killswitch Engage, Dark Tranquility, Abremalin, Dimmu Borgir. Tasty.
I recently got a friend to burn me a copy of a CoF album. I've only listened once so far but my first impression is that they sound like tryhards. Maybe I'm being too critical or something but yeah.
I mainly listen to Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein, Qotsa and similar stuff.

[mentalbunny]

Ooooh, another dark tranquility fan! No one I know has heard of them, where do you live? A mate got my one cd by them from Khazakstan and I can never find more stuff from them.

[Purple]

I have resently developed a new found happiness over Evergrey... I just love those guys:)...

[Politrickian]

Sepultura, Slayer, Dimmu Borgir, Finntroll and Thy Serpent.

That is all :)

But lattely I started listening more (sometimes Hardcore) Punk like Endless Struggle, The Unseen, Thought Riot, The Exploited, Raised Fist, Maypole and Youth Of Today

Ah genres and sub-genres, that tricky ground! One man's grinfcore is another man's screamo, or whatever. Anyway, most genres are pretty vague but I want to know the difference between black and death metal, apparelently it's very subtle, something about chords I'm told.

Good question. Most people have a hard time telling the difference (I do many times too).

Basically, black metal is more ambient than death metal and more emphasis is put on the instrumentation (with the vocals usually towards the background) whereas death metal sound is more concentrated on vocals as it is the precursor to grind. Lyrics in black metal also tend to be darker and not as violent as death metal as well as having a more philosophical and political content (usually in the form of nihilism and/or paganism) but there are many exceptions. Apart from that, their basically the same.

[mentalbunny]

Thanks El Brujo, now I know what I'm talking about, well a bit anyway! Generally I liek to be vague about genres, it's less restrictive, but some things do have set definitions.

[dsmtuner]

Slayer is insane.

[Purple]

In a good way I presume....

Insane is a funny word:biggrin:.... It rhymes with... derranged:biggrin:....


Suicidal Tendencies - Cyco Cision - a mighty good song

[Purple]

Ooooh... My new favorite song; Slayer - Angel of Death...
