Like the signature thread.

I've been changing mine a lot lately, but I think I'll stick with this one for now. Is a good picture of my favorite vocalist.

Your signature

Knightfall — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 21:36:02 GMT

What is it? Describe it and how you made it (if you did), and why you chose it. Somewhat of a meaningless discussion, but tis something to do. My signature is composed of 2 of the greatest quotes ever, and a collage of some of my favorite bands' logos (which I recently re-did), for those of you who are visually impared, bands in it are Nile, Opeth, Gorod, Obscura, General Surgery, Suffocation, Necrophagist, Vesperian Sorrow, Vesania, Ahab, Dying Fetus, Scar Symmetry, Nevermore, Iron Maiden, ...

I was baffled when I searched these guys and nothing came up. And you call this a metal forum... Anyways, they're one of the pioneering tech death bands and pretty much any DM fan can dig them. No Truth ...And the Psychic Saw Air Fuck yes.

Or is it just video games with you peoples??

Anyone looking forward to it? I've always liked Burzum a good deal.. can't wait. I hope it doesn't suck.

Saint Vitus

Master Cthulhu — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 20:23:30 GMT

Since this section of the forum is filled with too much gothic and too little doom, why not talk about one of the first bands to play the style? I'm sure they need no intro, so here is some classic tracks: The Psychopath Saint Vitus Born Too Late Dark World

New guy here

The Great Wesdirect — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 02:46:58 GMT

I saw this place advertised on Morbid Realm, so I decided to join. My username is a combination of my first name Wesley and the name of the new Between the Buried and Me album The Great Misdirect, which has quickly grown to be my favorite album. My musical passion is progressive metal. I also like some death metal, doom, black metal, thrash, and others. Anyways, time for the generic list of some of my favorite bands (in no order): Between the Buried and Me Opeth Zero Hour Incantation Communic Porcupine ...

Sleep

Mrs. Jimmy Page — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 07:32:49 GMT

Stoner doom band from San Jose, California. They began in 1990, disbanded in 1998 and reunited in 2009 to play a few shows. Holy Mountain and Dopesmoker are great albums and I would recommend them to anyone who wants great pieces of work from Sleep. The song Dopesmoker from the album of the same name is so amazing. Snowblind is a great Black Sabbath cover.

Augury

The Great Wesdirect — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 00:50:42 GMT

Augury is a progressive/technical death metal band from Quebec, Canada. As of now, they have two albums. Concealed is their debut and it features a lot of soprano vocals in it mixed with all the death metal. Their newest one, Fragmentary Evidence which was released just earlier this year dropped the soprano singers. However they remained their unique style and even expanded on it. From the Concealed album: And a couple songs from their newest Fragmentary Evidence:

Incantation

The Great Wesdirect — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 22:58:18 GMT

No Incantation thread? Blasphemy! Speaking of which, Incantation are one of the most blasphemous death metal bands of all time. They originated from New York in 1989 and are one of the biggest bands in the NYDM scene, along with bands such as Suffocation and Malevolent Creation. Their style is a combination of doom/death, blackened death, and a little bit of grindcore. Their lyrical content is general anti-Christian and sacrilegious. I'd say that they were my first true death metal band, and ...

Communic

The Great Wesdirect — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 04:52:34 GMT

Excellent prog band. They have released three albums; Conspiracy in Mind, Waves of Visual Decay, and Payment of Existence. My favorite is Waves of Visual Decay though. Now for a video in case anyone here has been missing out on this great band.

Opeth, one of the greatest metal bands alive

Blackwater-RiD — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 07:34:56 GMT

Opeth is one of the greatest metal bands alive. This thread is dedicated to their musical greatness.

If you haven't heard of them, buy an album, it's worth it.

Scar Symmetry

Blackwater-RiD — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 01:31:44 GMT

Scar Symmetry is a Melodic Death Metal band with a little bit of 80's metal twist, with a slight pop influence (especially with their latest album). I've listened to this band since a few months of their release of their second album. They are alright, it's a shame they kicked the old singer. What's hilarious, is that they needed to new singers to replace him. Besides the music, the other thing I like about this band is their lyrics, which usually have to do with Science, quantum mechanics, ...

Where in sweet jesus is the Mayhem thread? My favorite is Ordo Ad Chao, followed by DMDS. The old stuff is a bit too chaotic and the middle/new stuff was a bit too experimental, except for of course Ordo. Oh, and: Quote:Members of Mayhem and their crew were arrested Monday morning after allegedly destroying a hotel room in Tilburg, The Netherlands. The group performed Sunday night at the Hall Of Fame venue in Tilburg and had booked rooms for the night at Hotel Central. A ...

Ok, I don't know how to do this, but I do have an idea.

Anytime someone makes a common spelling mistake, or forgets or uses incorrect punctuation, etc. the word should be made bold and brightly colored.

On the forum I remember this from, we would endlessly make fun of people [including ourselves] for making stupid mistakes that they didn't correct before anyone saw them.

It could be fun!

Between The Buried And Me

Haimerej — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 03:32:53 GMT

Last.fm had them as progressive, but they seem more metalcore than progressive to me. HUMONGOUS recommendation to Knightfall, as they sound a lot like Protest the Hero.

Last Movie Watched/Review

Phil — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 06:08:06 GMT

Well, I'm currently watching (again): The Evil Dead 80's horror classic. Rife with suspense, the movie thrills better than any modern day horror, with only 1/100th the budget. While some of the dialogue is a bit shaky at times, Bruce Campbell steals the show and goes on to become one of the most badass horror heroes throughout the series. The movie suffers a bit at times due to its low budget as some of the effects are lacking, but the way the film is shot and the camera techniques ...

Agalloch

Moobeat — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 02:50:55 GMT

Agalloch is an amazing black metal band hailing from the United States. Calling them a black metal band , however, does not do them justice. They stretch their roots out into other genres as ambient, folk, and post-rock and even into various sub-metal genres as folk and doom metal. Their lyrical themes include nature, depression, darkness, and winter. As a newcomer to the band, I would recommend... Ashes Against the Grain Youtube Sample: Falling Snow Not ...

Be'lakor

Fenrir — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 17:07:21 GMT

A dark, melodic death metal band from Melbourne, Be’lakor has quickly come to be regarded as one of Australia’s more promising and creative metal acts. In the year that has followed the independent release of their debut, The Frail Tide, the band’s international reputation has grown rapidly. Drawing influences from ancient mythology and the perpetual struggle between destruction and life, Be’lakor creates songs that take the listener on a compelling journey. Their second album, Stone’s ...

Well, its obvious what its about, maybe I just meant I wanted to see if I would fit in well here. I like black metal, melodic black metal, death metal... And a host of other genres of music. Those would be the top. I don't have just one favorite band, but if you would like to know some of the bands ...
