holy shit. I only recently bought this album, despite listening for it for years

[Lincoln Fisher]

[Luke Perry]

Thanks for the chile and france things, I'm going through some of that stuff right now

[Jayden Robinson]

Only hipsters hate Nuclear Blast

[Eli Evans]

no problem, if anyone has more requests, I can post some stuff, but I don't promise miracles.

I still try to find some interesting band from China, or India, but so far, nothing really worth checking surfaced, except one or two bands.

[Nicholas Stewart]

youtube.com/watch?v=cvk77Esz9Yo

Man can you believe that Earache once was a proper label with actual bands and shit

[Samuel Hall]

there's nothing to hate here, NB is simply a label filled with turds

[Colton Roberts]

only death is real

[Jordan Campbell]

how about belgium?

[Juan Martin]

Back then they were releasing stuff that other labels were afraid of. When you check their catalogue, it's really full of edgy stuff.

They even had problem with police due to the Painkiller album (among others)

[Christopher Gonzalez]

what did Kai mean by this?

[Ian Stewart]

I perceive them to be a label that's so good at what they're doing that they take all the hard work (with all the blood sweat and tears, etc) away from the band so some of them become lazy. Also they signed up some seriously shit bands over the years, always trying to follow any trend that arises. All in all there's loads of good shit released by NB however so who cares.

[Dylan Moore]

No problem

Aborted (well, they did start in the 90s)
Agathocles (their early stuff had a lot of DM, and they formed on the ashes of the band Hellsaw)
Ancient Rites (they were this Blackened DM, before they moved into folk / viking stuff)
Anesthesy
Blasphereion
Caducity
Catafalque
Chemical Breath (obviously)
Exoto
In-Quest
Insanity Reigns Supreme
Legal Butchery
Renaissance
The Darkening

That's what I got so far, if we talk about the classic era. Next post - albums

[Samuel Powell]

goodposts

[Angel Foster]

Finland would be neet, they have one of the finest OSDM scene and I'm sure there's a lot of underground classics I'm not aware of

[Noah Anderson]

Blasphereion - Rest in Peace
youtube.com/watch?v=_Yy-zUDHBsw
The albums have some riffs taken straight from Sarcófago's Inri

Agathocles - Theatric Symbolisation of Life
youtube.com/watch?v=4uEpez2UGoY

Their most DM album. For some reason, I always found Agx's music to be slightly depressing.

Chemical Breath - Fatal Exposure
youtube.com/watch?v=EQKexzQalpE

Renaissance - The Death of Art
youtube.com/watch?v=DodWI2MOTtE
This one is weird because it's actually two different albums joined together. The first one is mostly some prog / avant-garde (?) with little DM elements, while the second part is basically their EP, which was DM.

Exoto - Carnival of Souls
youtube.com/watch?v=AhHn1Uhm9V8

Anesthesy - Exaltation of the Eclipse
youtube.com/watch?v=T3PTzg0T4vw

Ancient Rites - The Diabolic Serenades
youtube.com/watch?v=db0exp5L6nA

both Caducity albums
youtube.com/watch?v=BmrQXPxuHHU

youtube.com/watch?v=iQ82d7Ry720&list=PL_bDpjeMGL6x_prIMiot5ldO5KoYj6SLK

Insanity Reigns Supreme
youtube.com/watch?v=F2fciLpE_m0
Their name comes from the Prophecy of Doom's song, and it's funny, because I.R.S. actually called one of their albums Prophecy of Doom

The Darkening - Awake
youtube.com/watch?v=64o-KxMF0bI

God bless youtubers for posting full albums. But apparently, Belgian scene is more known than French for some reason.

Veterans / connoisseurs probably know all of these albums already, so there isn't much surprise here.

[Ayden Martinez]

Best finnish DM semi obscure things are
Mordicus - Dances from Left
Convulse - World without god

[Christian Sullivan]

Finland had quality over quantity.
Here are my charts, in regards to bands in my database
1.USA - 381 bands (and it will grow)
2.Sweden - 168 bands
3.Netherlands - 100 bands
4.Brazil, Poland, Germany - 89 bands
7.Finland - 69 bands
8.Canada - 67 bands (I'm still considering if I should add Infernal Majesty and early Sacrifice to my list, and then the would tie with Finland)
9.Spain - 61 bands
10.U.K. - 55 bands

[Ethan Cooper]

Instead of posting all of the Finnish bands I have I'd rather post this RYM lists, as they are very extensive in regards to both description and bands.

It is a little cop-out, but on the other hand, I wouldn't write anything that wasn't covered there

[John Taylor]

Post 'em

[Gabriel Robinson]

Okay, holy shit... Supuration is fuckin rad. Can't believe I've never heard of them before.

[Kevin Adams]

They have a shitload of albums, and they are legendary in France

[James Wright]

[Jeremiah Thompson]

Let's pretend we're twelve hours in the future, it's very easy

[Austin Rodriguez]

>and they are legendary in France
I talk to a lot of frenchfags and I watch a lot of french metal reviewers and I never heard of them
most frenchies don't know their scene well, wich is a shame
also you forgot sortilège
youtube.com/watch?v=PnDGZ6-R-ig
some god-tier heavy/power

[Easton Gutierrez]

What kind of metal is this? Gothic?

youtube.com/watch?v=znSN1qwEXBg

[Christopher Diaz]

It is metal, just not of high quality

[Michael Diaz]

They also never heard of Loudblast, which was something of their own Sepultura in regards to breaking-out. However, I really recommend reading up about Supuration, as they were a huge influence for DM bands in France.

I know Sortilege, but I was posting DM.
I do feel that Heavy/Power and Thrash are more well-known genres in France.

[Christian Ross]

Massacra and Crusher are awesome too. Why isn't there more on Gothic? They're crazy.

[Ethan Moore]

does anyone have this chart without the pooey paint scribblings?

[Christian Perez]

They had an album, compilation, and they had notoriety, but they were pretty obscure. Most of the "well-known" bands from France, ended up on demo-era (like Mestema).

Those who managed to record an album, were usually late, and when you look closer, they were releasing stuff in the lat 90s, when metal was going through a huge transition in regards to style

[Carson Howard]

does anybody know any guitar solos where 2 or more guitars play slight variation of the same melody? I'm not talking about harmonies

[Angel Baker]

is it ok to be wearing makeup and hairspray if you have good riffs?

[Kevin Allen]

+JP, Slayer, Helloween

[Carson Hughes]

>nu-metal
>metal

[Gavin Lee]

make up yes, hairspray no

[Kevin Collins]

[Jayden Collins]

Aborted is 50/50 for me, the only consistent member is the singer (which is one of the best ones in DM) so there is some constellations that worked better than others imo.

Benighted is in the same spot, but I think they've got a more solid discography than Aborted.

[Jacob Richardson]

What's your favorite album of all time?

[Brody Powell]

Benighted got better over time for sure

[Lincoln Howard]

evoken - antithesis of light

[Connor Flores]

There's literally nothing metal about this. Rock bands have heavier drums than this.

Space bong - The death of Utopia
youtube.com/watch?v=3QbV6W1Bt9o

[Dylan Edwards]

I'm pretty sure I know this entire album word-by-word

[Noah Powell]

Of course. Hah

First of all, I cannot not mention Coroner.
They might be called Thrash Metal, but their first two albums deserve a honorary mention whatsoever.

and obviously Hellhammer / Celtic Frost.
Without them, there would be no Death Metal, and Black Metal would probably be Heavy / Power with Satanic lyrics nowadays.

With that said, here we go

Aeternum
Amon
Babylon Sad
(early) Caustic
Damnation Call
Damnatory
Deflagration
Excidium
Exhortation
Exulceration
Infected
Messiah
Misery
Moribund
Parusie
Sadness
Samael (their second and third album, though)
Sickening Gore
Silent Death
Soulless (albeit they are a little TOO obscure)
Supremacy

[Robert Adams]

Meshuggah - Catch ThirtyThree

[Thomas Smith]

I know Coroner, our boy Tom G Warrior, Samael, and Messiah, and that's about it.

[Julian Cox]

Most of the interesting stuff from Swiss was in the 80s. And Switzerland had more interesting EPs, rather than LPs

Infected - Dark Century
youtube.com/watch?v=t8P7pLuIVH4

Exulceration - Infernal Disgust
youtube.com/watch?v=GWGoEMVK0l0

Babylon Sad - Kyrie
youtube.com/results?search_query=Babylon Sad Kyrie

Something of a supergroup, when you look at who was playing there.

Misery - Mystic
youtube.com/watch?v=ZQv5gbFLBJA

Damnatory
youtube.com/watch?v=5Fl5h8fNa_k

Sadness
this band is my fucking favorite
Opal Vault is a great song

certainly check their other albums

Supremacy - Human's Destiny

Sickening Gore - Destructive Reality

Napalm Death - Scum or Ulver - Bergtatt

[Charles Ward]

and more stuff
Amon - Shemhamforash
youtube.com/watch?v=hPqt50x4mNk
(the cover art is very overused in metal community)

Exhortation - The Last Trial
youtube.com/watch?v=jmJF-tqxSVo
inspired by Atheist / later Pestilence

Parusie
youtube.com/watch?v=HIZcme_4DpA

Silent Death - Stone Cold

they had drummer from Malevolent Creation (very underrated band)

Aeternum - Dreamy Silken Moontew
youtube.com/watch?v=ztpofYW3kno

[Gabriel Edwards]

TAROT WOMAAAAAAAN

[Wyatt Rodriguez]

This is my dad's favorite band and album

[Aiden Edwards]

Infected has a badass rhythm section and production.
Damnatory is really cool, Sadness is so weird lol, I dig it though. Silent Death is good too.

[Jonathan Walker]

...

[Evan Barnes]

Post beards.

[Nicholas Cook]

that album is legitimately legitimate

[Hudson Flores]

what the fuck is with that high pitched cunt of a tone in Dio's Holy Diver? It's like, the exact tone of my tinnitus.

[William Myers]

...

[Kevin Rogers]

Spain would b niec, there were many punk bands but apart from some shitty thrash revival bands, shitty metalcore bands and everything with JM Dopico I don't know much

[Hunter Bell]

I love black metal, but most of the shit you faggots post is just poverty, sub-par clones of the classic bands. There are some gems and nice moments in a lot of those releases, but overall the super-under ground stuff is just retarded. The riffs aren't even good in any kind of abstract way. You are just some basement dweller who is doing some serious mental-gymnastics to justify most of that shit.

[Jaxson Hughes]

*metal gymnastics

[Benjamin Watson]

Spanish scene is rich, and along with Poland, should be put among Swedish and Finnish scenes, considering how many bands and how different stylistically the bands were, alas, they are obscure as fuck.

If we talk about Spanish DM (which is my specialty), we have to talk about Dave Rotten and Avulsed, Drowned / Repulse Records, and Anaconda records.

[Easton Martinez]

oops

[Caleb Taylor]

literally everything by them

ARNAUT PAVLE YOU BITCH

[Robert Moore]

So can anybody tell me some good bands on the magical threshold between (hardcore) punk and extreme metal that are bound to blow my mind?

I'm talking shit like this here:
youtube.com/watch?v=MEu368O7YjU

[Joseph Reyes]

I was just listening to that album and had the exact same thought. I only noticed it on Caught in the Middle, I don't think other songs have it.

[Jordan Stewart]

its in all the songs, it's just a lot louder in Caught in the Middle for some reason.

[Jaxson Rivera]

GISM
mutilated veterans

[Asher Myers]

other bands

Two of my all time favorite bands are from Spain:

>Hybrid

Unbounded Terror - Nest of Affliction

Feretrum - From Far Beyond
youtube.com/watch?v=P1-xrs2LuwI

Wormed is pretty legendary at this point, albeit they play very brutal. And I mean, VERY brutal

Hybrid is an unknown for me

[Logan Flores]

Isn't that the genre "Crossover"?
The mix between metal and hardcore?

Christ Denied - ... Got What He Deserved
youtube.com/watch?v=BWrUVae0qXE
claustrophobic and brutal

Fermento
youtube.com/watch?v=Fw0qUaV1P_Q
The guy is Spanish Danzig, albeit not because of vocal, but because of attitude and being a macho alpha male

Reincarnation - Void
youtube.com/watch?v=AtvrKBA56rc

[Chase Edwards]

yeah, but I'm kinda tired from all the bands from DRI to newthrash like Municipal Waste. That's what "crossover" usually refers to. Pic Related. More extreme stuff is what I'm looking for. The band in the video example I posted dropped the thrash and pumped up the rawness for example. GISM and Mutilated Veterans fit the bill to, thanks to

[Juan Carter]

Yeah, they're pretty underground.
Can't remember how I found them but I'm friend with the first singer on Last.fm so maybe through there.
