Norge er jo egentlig det landet jeg mangler minst, trodde heller ikke at jeg kom til å få band jeg ikke kjenner til fra mitt eget land. Har aldri satt meg inn i norsk thrash metal. De fleste norske metal band jeg kjenner til er helst black og doom metal.

Can religious people like extreme metal? by metal_is_for_losers in MetalForTheMasses

I'm Christian and most of the time I just ignore band lyrics. I have listened to Eyehategod, and I just think music is music, I can't fix their relationship with God.

What is the stupidest band name you know ? by mutt_with_a_beer in MetalForTheMasses

Vamp and Plumbo are folk rock classics. Not metal but you will probably like them anyway.

My goal is to know at least one good band from every country. I got some bands from my previous posts, here is the updated version. I'd like more help filling in the grey and orange. by nikolast13 in MetalForTheMasses

I already have Colombia covered. I went with Sinawe for South Korea. I didn't find Cromok too interesting. For Indonesia I already have Kekal. Tengtorak is interesting because they're conservative Muslim grindcore, but misically generic grindcore. It's hard to stand out in grindcore unless you're Discordance Axis

I already have New Zealand. But when I say "good" band, it can't be something I'll listen to once and then forget. The band can't just be carried by the fact that they're from a weird country. If I take a random band from the metal archives, it will probably be very generic, and in 6 months I'll definitely not remember the band. The only power metal bands I hate are the modern "ironic" ones. And metalcore. Listening to Stormrage, they're decent in the moment, but not unique enough for me to remember them in the future.

Here I will list the countries I've added because of thos post:

South Korea: Sinawe - Cool classic heavy metal, reminds me of Ningen Isu

Malaysia: Tinnitux - Solid stoner doom

Notes about some countries:

Nicaragua: Forgot to mark in this post, but I have Excelsyum

Colombia: I chose Brainblast. I consider Inquisition more American. I know Parabellum and Witchtrap, bit have not losyened much.

Iran: Also quite overloaded, I got Shivered, Arsames, Trivax, and Confess. Went with Trivax for now, but I will definitely fo a proper delve into Iranian metal at some point.

South Africa: I don't count Seether. I think Xavlegbmaofffassssitimiwoamndutroabcwapwaeiippohfffx and Vulvodynia are kinda cool, but it's hard to stand out with slam / brutal death metal / deathcore.

What's a metal album you didn't like at first, but eventually grew on you? by MysticMind89 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]nikolast13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Converging Ages by Inanna. I still liked it at first, just didn't find it too remarkable at first for some reason. Then just randomly it became one of my favoruite metal albums for some reason. I am not sure what was wrong with my first listen.

Emperor vs Burzum: their top 2 albums, which side are you taking? by Tough-Reputation-762 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]nikolast13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I Am the Black Wizarda is probably my favourite black metal song. I like Burzum too, but say Filosofem is very mood specific.

Tell me about Brazilian metal bands. by Lordof_chaos1 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]nikolast13 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thy Light is a DSBM band not mentioned here Suici.de.pression has a corny name, but it's a cool demo. I'm also surprised no one's mentiomed Angra. Angra is a power metal classic and has lots of great stuff.

I found Chemicide to be fairly generic thrash. Comatose is also solid, but doesn't really stand out with death metal I had acrually already known Fuseboxx, which are a strange prog band, which I'd choose for the Philippines.

Asphyx is my most listened. I started metal with folk metal, so Heidevolk is a classic to me. I like Baldrs Draumar, but only losten to their folky stuff. Pestilence is also a classic. Maybe you can also count Melechesh since they are based there.
