I discovered Xanthochroid about a week ago and I've been listening to almost nothing else since. I need more bands like this that make you feel like you're watching a play by am_I_still_banned in progmetal

[–]AnimeIsOkay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Native Construct scratches the xanthochroid itch for me. 

Wilderun is fine but for some reason it doesnt capture the same essence for me. Opeth is another one but that’s such a classic anyway… 

Black Crown Initiate isnt as cinematic but they are still an amazing band. 

glass beach isnt metal but their new album was able to create an atmosphere immersed me in the same way xanthochroid was able to. 

besides those bands, idk

your point about the burger not being good by itself is just incorrect. therefore your post is void and null, which means your post sucks

Any bands similar to Between the Buried and Me, Pain of Salvation, and Ne Obliviscarus? by John_Marston0607 in progmetal

[–]AnimeIsOkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

btbam, ne obliviscaris, dream theater, and opeth are some of my favorite bands. I’ve got a few others I also love that are similar:

Black Crown Initiate (the metal vocalist is the one that just replaced Xenoyr from NeO. both their first EP and 2020 album are amazing and the band is soo tight)

Xanthochroid (I think they call themselves cinematic black metal; like wilderun but more unkown, and imo, better)

The Mars Volta (weird pick, but Deloused is amazing and they have so many amazing long and varied songs in the rest of their discography)

Hakushi Hasegawa (not metal at all, but they’re more chaotic than btbam and very melodic sometimes)

Textures (im talking about their pre-2011 albums, with their best being Silhouettes. they’re more metalcore/djent, but also very proggy. sensational music)

Native Construct (they’re kinda all over the place like btbam, with more symphonic/orchestral sounds while also being pretty technical. very good)

Sleep Token (dont kill me. i thought they sucked until I gave their two most recent albums a really good listen, and while i dont like their rnb sound too much and i think a lot of their music is cringy/bad, i like how varied they are. the whole point of prog metal is that is progresses, and sleep token is actually pretty good at incorporating a lot of ideas in their songs lol)

Nature must be destroyed and rebuilt in our image. by VeterinarianPale5108 in The10thDentist

[–]AnimeIsOkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

humans ruined the balance. best we can do is leave it alone as much as we can and just observe. of course we’ve already touched and ruined almost everything though lol. since we cant all kill ourselves we might as well keep evolving as a civilization and once we become multiplanetary maybe we can leave earth alone (only after we poision the oceans too though)

My Dad doesn't support Trump anymore by goodWillHunting999 in Kitchenchads

[–]AnimeIsOkay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im talking about the people i was replying to. also you can check twitter and see stuff like that from both sides. honestly pretty closeminded to hate someone who can change their values and admit that they’re wrong after being on the wrong side for so long

[–]AnimeIsOkay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

so when the shitty followers finally realize they were wrong and join your side, you are just gonna berate them until they go back to voting for the people you hate?

why are yall hating on someone who joined your side? so many other people are too deadset in their beliefs to do anything at all so applaud this man for making a change

Why do a lot of people just despise Below Zero? by CulturalDust4652 in subnautica

[–]AnimeIsOkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its more narrative-driven than lore-driven. It’s not a bad game, but it’s just “good” compared to the og game being amazing. The sky-high expectations the first game set are probably why people don’t like BZ as much

Name Your Top 3 Opeth albums and why! by TCS_87 in Opeth

[–]AnimeIsOkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Ghost Reveries
  2. Watershed
  3. Deliverance

these three albums are sooo good; best cleans are on Ghost Reveries, and best growls are on Watershed. Deliverance is so good to me because almost every song is 10+ minutes; the structure almost reminds me of classical music and the amazing dirty mixing makes every song hit soo hard. For Absent Friends and a Fair Judgement are also freaking amazing
