I actually offered them up on another board I post at but had no response so into the garbage they went, don't worry I still kept my all my Death/Black/Thrash/HC zines from 86-93,

I haven't heard that new Revenge yet, I supposed I should soon enough, I loved their previous works,

if you're a fan Blasphemy styled BM, you should check out Proclamation(if you haven't already) easily one of my favorite bands of the past couple of years,

Zero Hour is one of my favorite prog metal bands, but they aren't really Extreme metal. No extreme vocal styles, but their later material was getting fairly technical, so they have the tech part down.
Great band, but definitely not extreme metal.

Same here, except the term "extreme metal" makes me think of metal about skateboarding, bungee-jumping... and doing the Dew! LOL

I very much agree. It prefer it not just because it's the Fu album sounding the most like a spacier and fuzzier Black Sabbath, but also because it's more science fiction-oriented than their other stuff. I've read a couple of reviews bashing the Fu's early stuff for having rather weird lyrics, but as lyrical subject matter I happen to prefer psychedelic sci-fi to fast cars. At least it's more appropriate for a band called that, even if it's in this regard a pity they didn't call the band Ming the Merciless instead. LOL

which Proclamation album? they're both great but I prefer Advent of the Black Omen slightly more, it sounds like a bunch of cavemen grunting and smashing their instruments with barely any semblance of a song, and that crash cymbal sounds out of this world! 

ah, yes, the new Esoteric is great too!....as expected

Nevermore are a band I've never seen what the fuss was about. Their lyrics are great but all other components of their music I find oddly unengaging... yeah, they have a very distinctive style but not one that compels me in the slightest. (in case you are wondering, that is also exactly how I feel about Mastodon)

At first I didn't like the vocal style at all.
After a few months I began to love it.
I really love what Jeff Loomis does with the 7 string guitar... around the time he started using one for their albums, their was a lot of the nu metal thing with more simplistic musicianship thing going on with people playing simple riffs and what not on a 7 string (except perhaps Limp Bizkit's guitar work.......... yes, surprisingly, the guitar work is actually more complex than you might realize, courtesy of the rather talented Wes Borland, but let's not get too much into that now).
Jeff Loomis stepped it up about 50000 notches, with riffs that could easily be technical metal style riffage, and with insane soloing capabilties. Some of the stuff he does makes some of John Petrucci's hardest licks almost seem almost easy in comparison, no easy feat.
Many guys approached the 7 string as 6 strings+1, whereas, Jeff Loomis viewed it more holistically.
Check out the Born solo for example, where he incorporates the low B string into some rather ridiculously hard to play sweep picking patterns.

Honestly, give them a few more chances, maybe come back to them in a few months time, and chances are it might be one of the best things you could do.

I was going to ask, here's probably the best place, anyone got any recommendations on the noise/metal type stuff? Wold is a good example, also many recent albums cropping up from Israeli bands like lietterschpich, cadaver eyes, etcetera.

good stuff, I love Wold, Thumbs%20Up


I was going to ask, here's probably the best place, anyone got any recommendations on the noise/metal type stuff? Wold is a good example, also many recent albums cropping up from Israeli bands like lietterschpich, cadaver eyes, etcetera.


I don't know if I'd consider Wold 'Noise/Metal' just Black Metal with heavy focus on the low-fi/fuzzy aesthetic of BM, you can always check out influences of Wold and similar bands like Ildjarn, Beherit, Belketre, Torgeist, Vermyapre Kommando, Bone Awl, Sortsind, De Magia Veterum, Dead Raven Choir, Von, Furze, Bilskirnir, Akitsa, etc

You're probably correct, that sample in the music store was my first experience with the band. I was kind of half listening half talking to the girl behind the counter. Gosh, some of those names bring back memories. Back a couple of years ago a had myself a decent collection of the old LLN bands from France, and a tone of random demo tapes by lo-fi BM bands; played Bilskirnir's For Victory we Ride till it died. Couple of names I'm unfamiliar with so I'll be sure to check them out. Big fan of Akitsa btw.

Listening to a bit of Amon Amarth - With Oden On Our Side at the moment. Really fantastic album, I've only just discovered them and I have no idea how this lot slipped through my fingers beforehand.

Are they really that great? I've avoided Amon Amarth mainly because my friends who are more into generic metal seem to enjoy them.
 
And no, I don't care if it's progressive or not, I care if it's GOOD or not.

Yeah man, it's a good album. They may seem more mainstream than the underground scene, but there is some really nice melodic stuff in there. It can get pretty technical at times. Recommended Thumbs Up

When I first heard them, I was at Metalcamp, and my friend was really psyched to see them.  Turns out I really enjoyed them. They won me over instantly. They put on an amazing show. I'd definitely say give them a try
