For a change, my favorite Iron Maiden albums are Brave New World (absolute favorite.), Fear Of the Dark, The Number of the Beast[/QUOTE]

scorpions and rainbow and manilla road and early speed metal like riot made power metal

[QUOTE=MEOWTFLOL;28736060]What's everyone's opinion on Dimmu Borgir?[/QUOTE]
Only slightly care for their early stuff, but even then have not cared enough to buy anything or listen much.

[QUOTE=En-Guage V2;28723001]
Also someone should recommend me some speed metal, really want to get into it

Heard some on Scrubs the other day (unexpected) and it sounded pretty fucking awesome.

What are some of the best speed metal bands?[/QUOTE]

Are you talking about this?

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUukKG8m6dE[/media]

Because that's DevilDriver, and DevilDriver are [b]not[/b] speed metal. They're groove/metalcore. :v:

[Vedicardi]

Ahahahahahaha
how did I miss that post

[mastermaul]

Is there anything like Dio?

The music all seems to have a really unique style to it, and not just in his vocals.

Check out Crimson Glory and Virgin Steele.

80s as fuck or "Guitar dancing: the video"

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn-i1arcqQU[/media]

or maybe pretty maids
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka6OFwp25YIU[/media]

or maybe manilla road - crystal logic, one of the greatest metal songs of all time no question.

[mastermaul]

The crimson glory and pretty maid songs sort of reminded me of it, but it's still pretty far.

If you didn't look at the videos i'm talking about his later styles.

From the video that kind of sorta sounds ok...?

I really have no idea. I've never really ventured outside of more clean/symphonic metal, I really don't like a lot of the lyrical themes. Not to mention I don't have the taste for the vocals the majority of the time.

No he's not saying DevilDriver are bad, just that they are NOT speed metal by any means.

[Eluveitie]

Groove metal is the shit.

[En-Guage V2]

[QUOTE=SolidSnake52;28726637]Speed metal as in how everyone else defines speed metal, right?
Because that's like...Helloween and debatably early Megadeth.[/QUOTE]

I'll go with Helloween then, don't like Megadeth whatsoever.

Any other suggestions

[editline]22nd March 2011[/editline]

That's exactly the scene that I was talking about

How the fuck did you do that?

Also Scrubs belongs in the metal thread

devildriver are hardly groove metal.

everyone knows that scene

helloween isn't speed metal, megadeth isn't either. If you want speed metal, listen to Agent Steel or ADX, or Racer X, or impelliterri

[editline]22nd March 2011[/editline]

I am okay with this, seems cool

[Ca5bah]

Oh god, I just stumbled upon The Berzerker. I used to fucking love that band when I was younger.

[Canned Induvidu]

Just woke up...my ears hurt...my left ear feels like Im still wearing earplugs...AWESOME.
All I can say is...Slayer woops ass! It was fucking amazing. Megadeth were good too! Dayum...

The moshpit was hot too, tho my mate and I had a fun little experiance.
A midget punched my friend in the face when he was on his way into the moshpit :v:
It wasn't a powerful punch, but enough to make my friend stop and try to figure out what the fuck just happend :v: ACE.

[Charybdis]

Seeing Sonata Arctica on Friday in London, with Labyrinth and Triosphere, gonna be tense

Fucking amazing riffs.

[editline]22nd March 2011[/editline]

Great vocalist too.

[mikeyt493]

[QUOTE=Eluveitie;28740816]Devildriver are fucking excellent[/QUOTE]

They're alright on record. Not really worth listening to much imo. Decent.

Although live they fucking kick ASS :rock:

Some of their songs are great I think, like;

Beast really underwhelmed me though.

[mikeyt493]

Clouds Over California is a great track yeah. I just get a feeling of filler when listening to their albums

They seem to have one or two very good tracks on albums and lots that aren't very interesting.

This was the feeling I really got from Beast. Talons Out (Teeth Sharpened) was the only song that really made an impression on me.

Actually Black Soul Choir is also pretty good.

In some sense all of the following are groove metal:
Machine Head
DevilDriver
Lamb of God

And then there is the origin of groove metal: Pantera.

[joemomma53]

I fucking love Groove Metal.
