I will be boozing with the drummer from this lot tomorrow night.

Classic metal...

Original metal!

You all have no taste.

Id like to ban you all

You're too young to have taste.

Ouch. It's always about the age isn't it. I actually prefer older music to most of the regurgitated shite these days.

Taste takes time to acquire - like a mature cheese (Cantona, 1993)

I am far from being a metalhead, but probably 75% of my music collection would be "rock", in as much as it is mostly guitar based.

Mainstream Metal

Obscure Brit Metal:

I have mentioned these on the gigs thread before - they are playing in Devizes tonight - just £6 on the door - 9 other bands on as well as part of Devizes Festival.

You're still at yoghurt stage yourself.

Mastodon are quality. Can't beat a bit of Maiden though

i've never been into Maiden, but i can see why people would be

Steel and Aluminium

Not a massive fan of metal but these two sum up my brief flirtation with it in the early 90's

good call

saw them on scuzz and was impressed and then read in kerrang that they've been nominated for one of their annual awards. good to see a swindon band going well even if they're not everyones cup of tea

This is one of the best threads for a long, long time

Bring Me The Horizon - One of the better modern Metalcore bands around at the moment. Amazing live

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltbt9MaepFY

And love 'em or hate 'em, Slipknot are still by far and away one of the finest Metal bands

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjg-tr9J0do

Agree phil - anyone for a TEF compilation album!

A most excellent thread.

Here's who I'll be seeing in 3 weeks time.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDQaZtk36Fo

Don't get me started on Slipknot - fucking love them. Thinking of getting Gray 2 on the back of one of my shirts before I go. R.I.P Paul :(

Do it, man!

The Black Dahlia Murder will be so good live!!

I might go do it today...
 
My friend has seen them before and said they're awesome.

3rd time seeing Metallica, 4th Slayer, 6th Slipknot.

Not to mention a fucking ton of bands I've yet to see.

Sonisphere has an awesome line up to be fair. Sunday main stage is stupidly good.

Saw Slayer at the Clash of the Titans gig at the NEC, with Megadeth, Testament and Suicidal Tendencies I think.
Seen Metallica 3 times but never seen Slipknot live. I'm getting a bit old for concerts now.  :cry:

You're never too old for gigs/concerts/festivals! I'll personally be in and around the front for any band, when i'm 60!
Gotta love live music! And beer.... :)

Cozy Powell - late great rock god and Town fan - played with Jeff Beck, Bedlam, Rainbow, Whitesnake, Sabbath, Michael Shenker, Emerson Lake & Powell + many many others.

Sweet. Pah, just stand where there's breathing room!!

My first ever gig was when I was 15 - Slipknot supported by One Minute Silence, American Head Charge and In Flames :D Love it. LOVE. IT.

my favourite

Love this song,it often wakes me up on my early morning travels.

A bit of fun:

Well, no one else has posted them yet...

not metal but still class

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLbHfOhJNR4

aww finch, a dirty pleasure of most people i should imagine

opeth would be the main reason i'd go. i just don't want to pay mega bucks for a single day

Three pages and no priest?  For fucks sake.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nM__lPTWThU

But only that album. Everything else they ever tried to do was awful.

agreed!

Opeth! Arch Enemy! Just so many bands at Soni this year.

arch enemy?! oh dear...

I don't understand this post. Fit blonde singer and 2 amazing guitarists.

'alt' metal :)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPuNLlhrLT0

....and I was there for this one....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auvl-gVWZEo&feature=related

Motorhead live

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZ9wx8szyqo

i just don't like 'em really...

A blatant nepotistic plug for my 2 lads' band

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zH-8L1ecZds&feature=related













....and my lad's drum face has a massive Town badge!

Fair do's! One of my personal faves. Although I must admit when I saw them at Download 06 they didn't thrill me like I'd hoped. They only got 30 minutes to do their thing though which was a bit of a shame.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLa0-sQg1YM


First band I ever saw, the venue was heaving! the only time I've seen The Vic busier was for Funeral For A Friend.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-4sqLKPuVU

Only saw these lot in their Give Up The Ghost form, but still good (minus the singer taking a sit down at a table in protest of a fight in the crowd)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SbTvVMd67k


worth a shout!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEOBp-X2_wA


love this band too!

There have been a few, but this may be the worst thread in this forums entire back catalogue

Don't worry, I hear a Pet Shops Boys thread is on its way.  ;)

Someone start an indie pussy thread for Dave.

South American stylee.

tee hee hee

This couldn't be further from the sort of stuff I listen too, but my housemate is in a band which has apparantly got some good reviews. I wouldn't know, it's just noise, but i'll give him a plug anyway because he's a lovely guy :)

Had a bloke in Bradford on Avon today asking me if I had any t-shirts for White Supremacist bands. I pointed him at the Slayer t-shirts, as they have always had allegations of this. In the end he bought a Machine Head t-shirt, because he "liked the eagles and bombs". He was a big bugger, not someone I'd want to pick a fight with.

 My son and his bird have gone to this thing for the weekend.

 Supposei t's a tradition for kids to love music that their parents hate. :)

I bet your parents hated Vera Lynne Reg

Yep, thought of her as a brazen hussy.

I know I keep banging on about Malefice, and I make no apology for this as there are maturing into a top band.

Their new album is out very soon - and the whole album can be listened to on a free stream here:

http://metalblade.com/malefice/

I was at that :)

Hope they had as much fun as I did!

HEAVY FUCKING METAL.

Malefice are fucking ace, wiggy.

The new album is a lot more mainstream. It is bloody brilliant, and I am not just saying that because I know some of them.

He seemed particularly pleased about meeting some wrestler bloke called Chris Jerico....

Ha sweet, his band 'Fozzy' played. I didn't see them myself, but fair play! Used to watch WWE back in the Jericho days. I'm slightly jealous.

My younger brother no 1 hospitalised younger brother no 2 with a particularly well executed Walls of Jericho in our youth. What a day that was.
