A couple of female-fronted acts that have really caught my ear lately...

*Castle*

Haha, I'll take your Castle and raise it with Dark Castle!



Doomy and/or sludgy and I believe they're supporting YOB along with Kongh(excellent, should be checked out) on a european tour this fall, sure will be a heavy night.

I'm a pretty huge Opeth fan. They are coming to Detroit in October and I'm thinking about going.

Dooooo it! I saw them in Sydney in 2009.. I think, they were brilliant!

 

[Fritobandito]

It would be around 3 hours from my house. I don't know anyone else that likes them at all. Plus I hate Detroit. I got lost in downtown Detroit once and it was horrible.

 

[lumpher]

There's lots of good metal out there nowadays, you just have to dig a little to find it, radio's dead. Bands like Overkill, Anvil, Accept, Exodus, Iron Maiden, Manilla Road, and Saxon have all released exceptional new records lately as well. It's definitely a good time to be a metalhead. :rockin:

Massive opeth fan here. You should definitely go see them

I got my VIP tickets for Oct 25th in Denver. Meet and greet with the band + a bunch of signed crap = :rockin:

About time for a new Opeth record isn't it?

 

[shanecb]

Tomorrow I'll be seeing Obscura, Septic Flesh, Devin Townshend, and Children of Bodom. Should be a good show.

 

[Cmanuel]

Yup, this September. Although it is going to be completely different than the Opeth you are used to. So different in fact that they had to fire a member because "he didnt feel comfortable playing that type of music". hmm

 

[EarthBound]

Between the Buried and Me is the only metal band I listen to on the regular. IMO, the best metal I've ever heard.

They've been all over the map to date so this should be interesting.

Certainly one of the best, Colors was amazing!

Their new album is best I've heard so far, but it's only the first half! I can't wait to hear the second half. I'm trying to find other bands similar to them. Do you know of any?

They're pretty original so I'll have to think on it some. Bands like Outworld and Odd Dimension come to mind on the BTBAM "proggy" parts but that's as far as the similarity goes. I like their new one too but still can't get over Colors... Guess it just hasn't grown on me enough yet but I've only spun it a couple of times so far.

Cool, I'll check 'em out. I can't get over it either! Even after seeing them play the whole thing live. You can watch one of their performances of Colors (the whole thing, live) on youtube. :rockin:

 

[oldmate]

Not exactly 'metal' more metalcore but then again, not even that. My mates band Azlock: Here's a studio diary (the only good quality video of one of their songs). They've just decided to break up though.



They also have some songs uploaded on their facebook:

[lschiavo]

Just gotta subscribe to come back and check out all those bands. I haven't picked up the guitar for a few years (3 sons) but that last video reminds me of our old band days:rockin:

[avidhomebrewer]

Yeah, I like the classic metal, such as Iron Maiden, Slayer, Anthrax, King Diamond, Mercyful Fate, etc.

I've also been getting into symphonic metal, such as Sad Alice Said, Delain, Darkwell, Nightwish, etc. - female fronted metal bands.

 

[Boleslaus]

I saw Dimmu Borgir and Children of Bodom recently, pretty good shows. Devon Townsend opened for Bodom, definitely interesting, I've never seen him live before.

I came to think about Toxic Holocaust a couple days ago, saw that a new album comes next week, checked out a song from it:





I'll still probably check it out but it sure wont be a new:



With one quick swing and it's off with your head
Executioner put you to death!
