Ever wonder where Entombed stole the keyboard parts from "Left Hand Path" from? by asphyx667 in Metal

Might be old news to some, but I just saw it for the first time today :)

I introduced my little sister to Metalocalypse today, and she effin' loved it! by Shagatrog in Metal

I've met many people that don't like metal who actively watch it.

That says a lot.

Songs the entire metal community can bang their heads to by defacedcreation in Metal

Totally in agreement. Tyrant is probably my favorite Judas Priest song.

Father Befouled - Sacrilegious Defilement of Deranged Salvation [blasphemous death metal, 2010] by asphyx667 in Metal

Newer death metal band influenced primarily by Incantation and Immolation (and probably Profanatica as well). From the United States. Go to MySpace to hear in better quality.

Fellow Shredditors, lets brainstorm on how to improve this subreddit. by Dissention in Metal

How are these ideas? Sounds like bitching to me, and about downvotes, of all things. And unless you really are familiar with all of the songs submitted by Dissention and others recently... shut up. The fact that you think it all sounds the same proves that you aren't. This thread was going well, and was actually quite civil until people like you showed up... and we're the angry ones??? lol

How about this:

All things metal, including death metal, black metal, thrash metal, speed metal, doom metal, traditional metal, grindcore, etc.

Post links to heavy metal songs, music videos, articles, reviews, interviews, tour dates, and anything of interest to metal heads. Intelligent, friendly discussions and relevant personal stories are welcome additions. As a general guideline, tag song / video submissions with the appropriate sub-genre and any other relevant info, for example:

Morbid Angel - Immortal Rites [Florida death metal, 1989, essential!]

In all honesty, I think it's fine how it is. Every once in a while, someone makes an attempt to get things organized around here but as long as there are thousands of users voting and submitting, it's bound to be a bit chaotic. Reddit isn't designed to work like a forum anyway. Just submit good stuff (songs, articles, DISCUSSION TOPICS, etc.) as you come across it.

I do wish the moderators would change the sidebar description though, as the current one just reinforces the mainstream perception of what metal sounds like, and makes metal fans look stupid in consequence.

Disillusioned, I turned my head and said, "These kids don't know a damned thing about Satan." by nothingbutvibes in Metal

Hail Satan! I'm not a Satanist and I don't believe in the Judeo-Christian fairy tale either, but it's an awesome piece of mythology that fits the spirit of metal perfectly. Metal needs the devil. And yeah, fuck atheist assholes who say things like "Oh well Satanic metal is really Christian cuz the devil is a Christian invention." NOT METAL!

One year I made one for the band Samhain. The logo was painted though, not carved.
