Looking for new music recommendations

Tonelover · #1 10-01-2006, 09:34 PM

I'm afraid that my CD library has gotten a little stale and am admittedly out of touch with who is hot these days. I enjoy heavy, bone crunching metal but not low growling vocal styles of death metal, high operatic King Diamond, or million notes per second stuff. In the past I've enjoyed groups like Pantera, Tool, Metallica, etc, etc. Just good guitar heavy creative stuff with personality.

Who should I be checking out these days? Thanks!

Shadows fall, Killswitch engadged.

You can't beat internet radio for finding new music.

Go find a site that has it for free, or if you have aol, wmp, real player, they all have it, and go to the World channel(s). Have a pen and paper ready, you'll be jotting a bunch of names.

Theres infinite amounts of good music out there, get started!

As far as metal, same goes but the above post has good ones (CoB, SF \00/).

Maybe you will like lamb of god. They are pretty creative.

satchboogeyman · #13 10-01-2006, 10:42 PM

And that was your first mistake

Lefty Robb · #14 10-01-2006, 10:51 PM

yeah, I guess your right, the same pentatonic riffs over and over with a pinch harmonic every measure is awesome.

Why do you feel the need to argue. The person asked for recomendations and I gave one. If you dont agree then do the "grown up" thing and just let it go. This is not a debate.
