>some faggot posts djent

...

scene
sluts

what're you shitters listening to?

...

>tfw the blast beats in Stillborn One kick in

I know it's a meme but god damn if it isn't one of the best black metal albums ever recorded.

Rec me some bands like this

please and thanks

Inborn Suffering
Officium Triste
Saturnus
Novembers Doom

easily his best, not sure why filosofem became the definitive burzum album

It's not a meme, you're allowed to like good things. Be a happy human.

Unsarcastically, probably because the first track is literally "Burzum."

maybe beause I'm drunk but that gave me a chuckle.

nah man, this is a great album. It's when varg is still doing his castration vocals (as opposed to his super filtered yet superior vocals on Filosofem), but the atmosphere is there. it really does what it was intended to do, which is stir the imagination. great shit

This, or the fact that the name is "FIlosofem" is an easier name to pronounce and remember. Or the popularity of the t-shirt.

Yeah, the atmosphere is unreal on this album. As soon as it starts, with the guitar strums barely audible in this lo fi haze you know you are in for something special.

True true. And the art. It's more easy to visualize and recall later

Probably gonna get flak for this since a lot of metalheads don't really consider it 'true' metal but idgaf.

Anyone got some recommendations on bands that have a similar sound like Blind Guardian? I've got Rhapsody(of Fire) already.

You're obviously new here.

Anyways, try Helloween.

as in super folky or cheesy ass power metal? or both?

That apparent? Long time channer I swear, just never hung around Sup Forums much.

I'll take both

>That apparent?
/metal/ loves cheesy-as-fuck Power Metal. Whether or not it's a meme is up in the air though.

[spoiler] I love it tho [/spoiler]

I never really delved into both. it was usually one or the other for me.

Dream evil is probably a bit of a meme in the power metal circle (its kind of a super group) but their debut album is really good.

If you dont know hammerfall yet check them out.

Also I'd look into anything by black majesty, but maybe start with Sands of time

I only like two power metal bands and those are Rhapsody and Galneryus sp check them out

Not exactly the same style but check out the new Avantasia album. It's pretty fun

heavy metal is kinda gay and homoerotic music which inspires the hidden queer in metalheads

>hidden
bitch i'm wearing assless chaps and a leather collar right now.

all chaps are assless tho

I SHED

Aside from what's been mentioned, there's quite a bit of fun PM relative to BG
Crimson Glory is advisable, a lot of PM bands, guardian included, take influence from them
youtube.com/watch?v=8bfaoxHJcyU

early Dark Moor is also good to check out
youtube.com/watch?v=YWu7Orf97bE

for some more prog/power based stuff, I'd also suggest Angra, Theocracy, and Fates Warning, all pretty top tier
youtube.com/watch?v=4u9PnzX9Dnw
youtube.com/watch?v=jNubhGSAnwk
youtube.com/watch?v=BRi2G3ARoO8

For stuff with a similar formula to rhapsody, theres Ancient Bards (Highly recommend listening to all three of their albums in one sitting if possible, link is their first) and Dragonland, though there are quite a few if you want more
youtube.com/watch?v=0ndViAnKK6s
youtube.com/watch?v=iYAQRDQzzPw

Also, Falconer's a fairly more folk oriented band that is extremely enjoyable
youtube.com/watch?v=D0a62GEZddQ&t=1588s

To finish off I'll just drop a few differently styled Power Metal albums that you may find enjoyable as well

Cheesy ass power metal you say? Try this shit

THE BLOOD OF THE SAXON MEN

this user also knows what he's talking about

>no mention of Hammerfall's first two albums
9/10 list tho

dream theater is the best power metal band

>dream theater is the best metal band
ftfy

somebody already rec'd hammerfall desu
agreeable though, those are some quality albums

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone! This is quite the list, I appreciate all the tips and pointers. Stay metal as fuck fellow anons, I'll never forget this.

That last post is more of a meme, DT is purely prog and most of their stuff isn't considered that great, but NP nonetheless

>tfw ywn get the final season of metalocalypse

i'd grab a drink with you

>mfw it's actually the truth

Anyone know of any way to get hold of the Heavy Load albums in CD form? The vinyls are pretty expensive and I'm unsure of the unofficial CD rereleases' qualities. Am I just better off ripping them from youtube?
Iron Savior
Helloween (first 3 albums)
Stratovarius
Hammerfall
Gamma Ray
Dio
Rainbow (More hard rock with themes prevalent later in power metal)
Heavy Load might work for you as well
I think Nightwish technically counts as power metal and might work for you.
Stormwarrior
*coughAlestormcough*

I think any other bands I list will fall too far into either other subgenres or just normal heavy metal and likely won't have the sound you want. I personally think Hammerfall will hit closest to the sound you want, at least until Threshold where things start to go to shit.
>British Steel
Ironically the only priest album I didn't like in any form until after Painkiller.

haay guys remember me? you used to love me what happened :( are you ashamed of me?

>DT logo road sign

What did they mean by this? Was it poetry?

we don't have fun here

No.

THIS is poetry.

Deepest lore

Post actually good albums

No memes allowed

...

Disfear are like the logical conclusion to punk imo and the HM-2 + d-beat combo is just unbeatable. The HM-2 and any riffs really is always fantastic. Kurt Ballou has gotten some good tones out of the pedal with Trap Them and Black Breath even though they are compressed to shit. Spinebreaker and Gatecreeper put out some thicc riffing with HM-2s last year

there can never be too much emphasis on guitar and bass tone and the hm-2 gives you some cool options

The Glass Prison is a really good song

Post non-metal metal songs
>The song tells a folk tale of a cowboy who has a vision of red-eyed, steel-hooved cattle thundering across the sky, being chased by the spirits of damned cowboys. One warns him that if he does not change his ways, he will be doomed to join them, forever "trying to catch the Devil's herd across these endless skies".

Post some

>not monumental

Shame on you

Ballad of Omie Wise

It's about a guy who lures a girl by telling her he's gonna marry her but actually kills her. S'pretty cool.

>tfw living in California
>only listen to trve metal
>but tfw no latina scene gf
why even live

Is country honorary metal?

...

I'd say mostly folk music. Blues also. Lots of song s about drinking, murder and sadness.

>tfw could have had latina scene gf in high scool
>too autistic to pick up on signals

I'm making up for it by pulling girls from out of state with my internet pick up skillz

yes

>Implying monuments is on the same tier as that other djent quasiprog le 4D bullshit

The Amanuensis is a genuinely good album.

I wont argue that. I'd add that gnosis is fantastic too save for the vocalist

this is badass user. Rec me some more stuff

I don't have much

Also Doc Watson pioneered flat picking. So metal can thank him for that.

Trap Them - Crown Feral was my #2 album this year, NAILS being #1, Gatecreeper are pretty fuckin good too. I'll check out Disfear and Spinebreaker now.

Now that the dust has well and truly settled, what's the verdict?

probably not hard if you're in socal and go to black taco circle shows

band has a silly name

>tfw you never banged a scene girl in your school time

>tfw only banged faux goth girls

>tfw not even that...

I was into rap and dnb back then T_T

Unironically one of my favorite BM albums desu
Anything similar without going full folk metal?

Where do I start with blut aus nord ?

Currently listening to this
