Probably because I didn't close the thread back when it was started .

don't start threads bitching about bands who aren't 'metal' enough for you! It's fucking pointless.

It can be very therapeutic though.

To name but a few

The Blackening - Machine Head
Anaal Nathrakh - In The Constellation of the Black Widow
Nile - Annihilation of the Wicked
The Haunted - One Kill Wonder
Napalm Death - Order of the Leech
Rammstein - Mutter
Vital Remains - Dechristianize
Opeth - Deliverance
Pig Destroyer - Prowler in the Yard
Nasum - Helvete
Meshuggah - Obzen
Lamb of God - As the Palaces Burn


Theres 12 albums released in the last 10 years and the bands hav'nt (in my humble opinion) done better before or after.

I don't mean this to come out as a rant against you personally but honestly if someone hasn't managed to find any albums that they regard as truely great in the last eleven years they may want to find something else to do with their ears because music just might not be for them.

I'm not going to produce a long list of albums or "new" metal bands that I regard as truely great, suffice to say that I like new metal bands and albums, old metal bands and albums and even those metal bands and albums that are difficult to categorise as one or the other.

I am actually a huge fan of Agalloch and Amorphis, but I wouldn not consider them new bands, especially not Amorphis as they have been around since around 1990. In answer to your question I think these particular albums are truly face-meltingly good.

Moonspell - Night Eternal
Amon Amarth - With Oden on Our Side
Nokturnal Mortum - The Voice of Steel (One of the best black metal albums since Emperor's In The Nightside Eclipse)
Draconian - Arcane Rain Fell
Mael Mordha - Manannan
Immortal - Sons of Northern Darkness
Dark Tranquillity - Fiction
Dispatched - Mother War
Amorphis - Silent Waters
A Perfect Circle - Mer De Noms
Amon Amarth - Surtur Rising
Demonaz - March Of The Norse
Amorphis - The Begining of Times
Agalloch - Ashes Against the Grain
Rotting Christ - Genesis
Primordial - The Gathering Wilderness
Agalloch - Marrow of The Spirit
Daylight Dies - Lost to The Living
Amorphis - Skyforger
Omnium Gatherum - New World Shadows
Sworn - Twilight
Summoning - Oath Bound
Rotting Soul - Khronos
Wintersun - Wintersun
Septic Flesh - The Great Mass
Swallow The Sun - Ghosts of Loss Sun
Darkthrone - Dark Thrones And Black Flags
I - Between Two Worlds
Arch Enemy - Khaos Legions
Blood Ceremony - Living With The Ancients
Hypocrisy - A Taste of Extreme Divinity
Agalloch - The Mantle
Amorphis - Silent Waters
Thulcundra - Fallen Angels Dominion (Fantastic new band that pay a lot of homage to Dissection)
Mactätus - Suicide
Fields of The Nephilim - Mourning Sun

All those fantastic albums are truly amazing, and none of them have just a couple of standout songs like some new metal albums these days. I also think that what No. 1 Metal Fan meant by new bands is bands that were formed a couple of years ago, and are covered by the likes of Metal Hammer and Kerrang.

Thanks for the replies lads, I'm very comfortable in what I listen to Malice, but I appreciate the concern (rant) that metal is no longer for me.
I think you missed my point...
I am saying that when a young fella gets into metal, he is handed Master of Puppets, Vulgar Display of Power, Reign in Blood.
These albums are 80s/early 90s.

What albums in the last 10 years are handed to a youngster? Probably the above albums still....

They're aren't handed*:
Negura Bunget - Om
Drudkh - Blood in our wells
Nader Sadek - In the Flesh
Tribulation - The Horror

Is it possible anymore to have albums like the former albums, or has the music world become so over saturated with msuic that nothing stays on people's minds long enough?

Am I making sense?


*list of albums I like

viadah

You could take social and habitual factors into account, but.....I dunno I'm kinda stumped as to what this thread is really supposed to be about now.

Anywho here's Fit for an Autopsy, was this what we were going for? Decent new metal bands?

Obviously people will have likes and dislikes. Listen to the stuff you like and don't listen to the stuff you don't like and don't start threads bitching about bands who aren't 'metal' enough for you! It's fucking pointless.

this, +infinity

Well now that's a bit different to what you originally wrote so it's no wonder my reply wasn't along those lines . You do raise an interesting point with the above quote though and I'm going to start a separate thread on it because I disagree and I'm curious if I'm in the minority.

Edit: Thread is here.

No 1 Metal Fan

At one stage yes but then I lost interest in them

LH Pathe

No room for new metal when life is almost exclusively one big Metalliclique

I suffer.

metalover

Yeah, if your talking about bands like Black Veil Brides and whatever emo "metal" I really hate it, I prefer listening to some good metal, like Megadeth and Slayer.
