It's a good album, but I'm real tired of that generic black metal sound and look. How difficult can it be to come up with music that doesn't simply copy/paste ideas from Gorgoroth and Darkthrone?

Are you even looking?

She's not even on Encyclopedia Metallum. Too hair metal for them?

A lot of stuff that was teetering between 80s hard rock and heavy metal is absent from there. Mr. Big and Praying Mantis are two examples.

Their definition of what metalcore is metal and isn't, and in contrast with their treatment of nu-metal, is all you need to know about how retarded they are.

It comes down to no actual logic or knowledge of sub genres, in actuality it comes down to bias and which bands they just hate, usually probably because of the fanbase of said band.

Also, lol @ Poison, Whitesnake, and KISS being lumped together into the same genre, "glam rock" no less, which not a single one of them play. Now, there IS a standard for what can be considered technically "metal" or not, but they are not musically inclined enough to really know what that is in a fair unbiased way.

Also how's Japanese rock disqualified?

Based.

The EM admins hate weebs.

Japanese ROCK. Not Japanese bands period, note, Loudness is on there.

metal-archives.com/bands/loudness/943

Loudness is about as glam metal and as "heavy metal" as many bands that are disqualified from the site because they are more famed as "hair bands", or I guess what they'd call "glam rock" because they're idiots. Just another example of the idiocy and hypocrisy or that website's management.

Attached: loudness.jpg (660x441, 87K)

Early Kiss were considered glam rock, user. They were close cousins of the New York Dolls (also constantly referred to as glam rock, but usually called proto-punk these days).

I wish MA was a bit more open minded when it comes to certain genres and styles, they don't have to like those bands in any way, but for the completion of the index of bands that is Metal-Archives they should allow more.
This is why i prefer discogs over ma any day of the week, none of the personal preference is present.

Metal-Archives has always been shit and hypocritical.

>Early Kiss were considered glam rock, user.
KISS tried to ape the glam image before figuring out their "white face super hero" personas and was influenced by it musically, but their own music was much more straight ahead hard rock than those bands. I'd quicker put your standard classic KISS music on a playlist alongside Ted Nugent and AC/DC than I would Slade or The Sweet.

what makes nu-metal not metal? how is A7X less metal and more core besides their earliest albums? how is Tool "modern alt/hard rock" and not prog metal? why is all djent excluded when bands like Meshuggah are clearly metal unlike the jazzy faggot shit like TesseracT?

Maybe, but they have opened up some over the years, grincore used to be a big no-no but now they allow some of them.

KISS's hair metal phase spanned the period from 1984 to 90.

Oh well, that was karma for her sitting and laughing as her bandmate was raped in front of her.

>Dir En Grey disqualified despite being a metal band for about a decade

Yes. Glam metal, though, not glam rock. There is a distinction between the two.

metal-archives.com/bands/Skid_Row/1657
And oh, guess who IS on the site! A band who most definitely was within that scene, but has forever been a darling band and "exception to the rule" because....well, status quo man. No Whitesnake or KISS, but Skid Row is cool....and no hard rock like AC/DC, but we'll call Skid Row hard rock on their page anyway.

Have you tried using recuva?

Suddenly Trashed takes on a whole new meaning.

You can still recover things using recovery software like Recuva. When you delete a file, the data still resides on the harddisk. Only the filename and physical location of the data are actually erased. And the data will remain on the hard drive until it is physically overwritten. If you really want to delete something, you need to use software like bleachbit to purposefully override all unused hd space.

All of that loli you thought you got rid of, still there.

Oh and also, if you don't keep backups, you're a retard and you deserve what you get.

But Ian Gillan wrote that song anyway, not Iommi (Ian loves his driving/car themes)

It’s pretty good. It’s trashy and pretty catchy. Definitely different than they’re last 3 or 4 albums. Still sounds like cob but at least they did something different

Absu is one of my top 5 bands of all time and I've never been able to find other black/thrash bands that have the same style

For years, Nuclear War Now!’s forum has been the haven for life dropout D&D neckbeards searching for some form of friendship and community. But according to website tracking metrics, the site has seen a massive decline in it’s traffic over the past 6 months. While viewership of metal sites can rise and fall unpredictably on metal sites, the above statistic should frighten anyone who cares about keeping their site relevant. Sites with active forums should be doing much better than your the average blog-style metal site, so the numbers above show an unforgivable descent into irrelevancy.

But given that the site is predominantly frequented by war metal fans that have no regard for actual music, the crash in interest also proves something far bigger: war metal, as a sub genre, is in its last days.

This is a welcomed revelation as war metal was the nu metal of black/death metal and was ultimately worthless. With virtually no innovation, creativity, or direction for over 20 years, war metal became the lowest IQ form of extreme metal. The fact that Beherit was more interesting, creative, and musically varied than every single band to follow it throughout the decades to follow is an absolute disgrace to every band that’s followed in their footsteps.

its ok but the pasta is kinda funny

It all sounds the same but I still enjoy it.

While the surface-level viewer might see war metal as “the most underground/kvlt/extreme/unlistenable of all genres,” the truth is that it was only marketed as such and done so very effectively as the bank account and new production facility of Cali basedboy Yosuke Kanishi will clearly indicate. By offering a product that appears “totally not mainstream haha!” Kanishi was able to efficiently trick kvlt status seeking basement dwellers into mass consumerism using the same marketing tactics as thrift shops. Essentially this created a record label and forum that was ultimately the thrift shop of metal– reissues (refurbished releases) of random bands from 20 years past that could be marketed as super underground when really they were just empty of creativity and technique. By assumingly being “not trendy” war metal became one of the trendiest metal genres of our time and the go to for the metal derivatives of the modern hipster.

“Bu… But war metal is evil!” Really, then why does Nuclear War Now! have an Instagram account?

Musically war metal is a hilarious deception because if you alternate the grooves of their atonal power chord riffs, you’ll get nu metal riffs. Most bands even match the nu metal guitar tuning of A! But war metal fans have no idea they’re listening to nu metal with different drums and vocals because they only care abut the aesthetics. In all reality most of Black Witchery’s riffs were originally on Korn’s Life is Peachy which subconsciously tickles the nostalgia of their fans without them realizing how or why.

caveman alpha genre

Attached: 1548581587237.jpg (960x960, 86K)

In an age where Von is taking big money for rock star tours, where Blasphemy albums are marketed as vintage thrift shop essentials, and where black metal shows feature 90% war metal bands, any prestige or credibility war metal and it’s original bands once had is gone. War metal fans are the modern equivalent to the JNCO jeans wearing clowns of the 90s. They are the permavirgin autistis of metal that grew from infants that would have been left in the woods to be eaten by wolves in the Pagan times.

Celebrate the death of war metal, repent if you ever liked this garbage, and enjoy some classic war metal riffs below:

Can someone explain Iron Maiden to me, and especially their success?
The first two albums were alright NWOBHM on par with the first Angelwitch or Wirchfinder General but after Bruce joined they really took a nosedive, I can't stand most of the songs off Number of the Beast for example even though it's somehow regarded as one of the best heavy metal album by some.
Once you look at the song structure you realize they basically lifted Stained Class by Judas Priest and just declined it in a thousand versions, then from the Blaze era they started to thing they were prog virtuoso with those fucking 10 minutes long songs that are just plain bad with he chorus being repeated for half the runtime of the song and some mediocre solos backed by the Stained Class bass line.
I just don't get that band and I think it's the only one, I can even find redeeming factor to the Black Album but nothing by Maiden seems even remotely good to me past their second record.

a modern classic

they were always influenced by prog (snore) and they hated punk which in my opinion makes them faggots

Albums I love that get flamed on here

I'd like to watch it to upset Varg

But their first two albums have clear punk influences and they obviously don't have the talent to write good prog pieces.

are there any good turkish metal bands?

hail odin sire

KARA BOGA

it's just the way they were produced

What the fuck is up with the garbage quality of this album's lyrics
>I was nice to a homeless man so I got into heaven
>My son died and I'm sad
>Hallowed Be Thy Name 0.5x Speed
How can you listen to shit like "CAN'T YOU SEE THE DEVIL IN ME" when 20 minutes ago you were singing about giving a homeless dude soup

All men are sinners, the lyrical content is all over the place because some of the songs were written during the Epicus sessions but it's like complaining that Reverend Bizarre has a love song like Anywhere Out of this World and a song about Caesar saying fuck Jesus on the same record.
The lyrics of The Samaritan are great though.

what's some good viking metal that isn't the main ones (bathory, falkenbach, moonsorrow, etc)

who the fuck cares, he's the best metal vocalist I've ever heard so I just sit back and listen

They're Swedish, don't overthink it. Most likely they just wrote down shit that sounded cool.

breaking news: metal song has cheesy lyrics

when does Tyr get hate?

kara booga

haven't heard, but wow that cover is hideous

it's ok

varg doesn't care about what one random person watches

varg is a random person you care too much about

see:

You're all right, as evidenced by the dubs, near quads, and outright quads.
This album fucking rips. I have no idea how I got hung up by lyrics first listen around.

why is it considered numale core?

Having an opera singer and being considered NWOBHM gives them legend status. It's really funny to me how Kill Em All is only a year older than NOTB and yet Metallica considers Maiden to be an influence more than a peer

I've never heard a single song were Bruce sang in a way that could qualify as operatic and they didn't really bring anything new to the table in a post Priest world.
As I said I just don't get it.

Is this achievable natty?

I'd argue Steve Harris is influential as fuck but otherwise I'm in the same boat

Hey look, another death thrash band way better than Demolition Hammer.

that's because deathrash is highly varied and while DH is GOAT, not every deathrash band has to be exactly like them

Nobody did that kind of that kind of lyrical, melodic dual guitar stuff with those tempos and that level of energy before Maiden. Certainly not Judas Priest (who had a couple dual harmonies here and there in Sin After Sin, but very rudimentary ones).
There was Thin Lizzy and Wishbone Ash, but Maiden expanded on their guitar approach and injected it into a totally new subgenre.
>muh they got bad after le edgy first singer
get your ears checked. Number of the Beast has songwriting on par with the previous 2 albums, and some of Clive Burr's best performances. After that album they got more progressive and more conceptual, but they never really overdid it or lost that "heavy metal" spirit until the late 80s (and even their late 80s stuff is classic in its own way)

>The first two albums were alright NWOBHM on par with the first Angelwitch or Wirchfinder General
>I can even find redeeming factor to the Black Album
I don't like Iron Maiden past the first two albums but you're just stupid.

>let my hair grow out for a while
>try to headbang for real
>gives me a really bad headache
I'm not cut out for this shit am I?

OK thanks for the input

Everyone can headbang, but you need at least three years of growth to make windmills

too early faggot

you're one of the most autistic regulars here

I don't care about varg, and he's not a random person

he is a low iq narcissist

how is that relevant at all to what I said? Why are you saying random things?

he is a random glitch in the matrix

That guitar on her looks like a strap-on.

Explain how he's low IQ. I want to hear it from a big brained, peer reviewed scholar like yourself.

No response of course.
