    There is no other music. At least not for deadlifts

    I'm all for a crazy time signature with heavy guitars.
    Lately though, I've been leaning to the proggier side of rock, porcupine tree, karnivool, opeth, tool and such.

    Listen to some of it all, but hard rock and metal have been way up at the top of my list for years. Saw Motely Crue at the US Festival that made them big, and have seen loads of others since. Disturbed is this Tuesday here, and we got tickets the day they went on sale.

    Though I was only one. Moterhead, Megadeth, Black Sabbath, Danzig, Misfits, Metal Church, Merciful Fate, Deep Purple, Iron Maiden, Flotsam Jetsam, ZZ Top, Nine Inch Nails etc ... of yeah Metallica (idiots with a beef with Napster, cry me a river). Yeah I know some of this list is really hard rock, etc. Did I say Moterhead? Any one know where to get the original jacket patch (not the Warpigs one).

    Has anyone ever been into the black metal scene? when i was younger i loved Darkthrone and Bathory to name a couple, now i'm in my late 20s its more thrash and old school death metal. Love Satyricon though, been a fan since i was 15! its cool to see other fans here, where i live it's all trance and club music...

    Yep. I first heard Darkthrone as a teenager, I think it was Blaze in the Northern Sky. I was into Emperor and Mayhem for a while too. I don't listen to it as much anymore but every now and then I like to hear it for old times sake.

    Karnivool is amazing. I was actually turned on to them from random YouTube shuffling after a Tesseract playlist one night.

    While I did dabble in the black metal scene a bit (Emperor, Satyricon, and Ulver were by far my favorites) I ended up pretty quickly leaning away from the traditional stuff when Dimmu released Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia. I realized that I really loved the sound that they, Arcturus, and The Kovenant were heading toward. Then Dimmu went to total *kitten*, Arcturus broke up, and I don't even know what the hell happened to Kovenant after SETI.

    Though, Arcturus did get back together this past year for a new album (their first since like 2005), it was...weird, to say the least. I think those guys got on all of the drugs. *kitten* stronger than whatever Garm started taking before Ulver released Morpho.

    *horns up*

    Am a thrash metal fan at heart first and foremost... Metallica/Megadeth/Anthrax/Testament/Slayer/Exodus etc...

    Also dig Pantera.. Lamb of God...Killswitch Engage.. Hatebreed. So I try to mix it up a bit.

    I really don't think Dimmu have made a decent album since death cult armageddon in 2003, spiritual black dimensions was a *kitten* of an album though.

    By the way if any of you ever get a chance to see Behemoth live do it! theyre an awsome band and the only... you could say modern, black metal band i actually like. Saw them 2 years ago, awsome show.

    While I still consider myself a big metal head, I've spent an increasing amount of time listening to non-metal as years go by. Still I consider doom and black metal to be my favorite genres.

    Right now, according to my play counts, the metal bands getting heavy play are Sojourner, My Dying Bride, Tempel, Vattnet Viskar, and Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats. The rest of my recent played is all post-rock, retrowave, and jazz.
