Babymetal & Poppy ftw

I have this problem where I love some good metal guitar, but most of the stuff with the sound that I like also includes vocals reminiscent of Christian Bale's Batman with a sore throat, which I do not enjoy. Either that or overly edgy lyrics.
Try Sinergy.

I think I'm "it's all metal" because I don't care to give thought to every subgenre of metal. If it sounds good, I like it. I have to laugh at the description though because I do really enjoy melodic death metal and I blame Avatar for that.

Have you considered going instrumental?

This is where I fit - really obscure tastes, but instead of gate keeping, I'm like a Jehovah's witness showing up at your door, pushing bands on you if you show even the slightest interest
I am very interested.
But usually I like one or two songs from one interpreter, there are very few albums I like whole (Wintersun by Wintersun is the main exception, that is amazing from start to end).
So it's hard for me to find new music that I like.

As a dedicated metal-type autist for over 15 years I am proud to say I'm not on this list. I am the Ambassador, the Professor, the Diplomat. I welcome any and all into the fold and love to help people find their niche. My personal taste leans towards prog, black, and death but my knowledge runs deep and I love to share it.

I've got a bunch of recommendations scattered throughout the post. Give them a whirl

Random question - anyone know a good site to buy digital music that pays the artists somewhat decently? I've got a few artists I need to get albums from after bailing on Spotify and they aren't on Bandcamp and don't has album sales linked to their official sites. Hell, even physical copies of some albums are hard to come by in the US.
I saw "7Digital" mentioned somewhere but I see there multiple listings for the same album at different prices (literally the exact same album, exact same quality) which makes me suspect it's not as legit as I had hoped.
I use tidal - they get a much better chunk out of the profits. There's another new one out there but I can't recall it's nsm

Try Haunt - he can sing. Same with Night demon

I mean I understand you might prefer other rhythms but now you're just being edgy
I just think 4/4 is for musically illiterate children.

So being boring?
Not really. Whether or not a piece of music is boring has very little to do with the time signature.
It's more like a framework.
Perhaps it's also boring that most paintings are done on rectangular canvases, but I don't think a painting necessarily gets particularly more interesting by being done on an oddly shaped canvas.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I tend to use Bandcamp, they have a thing on the first Friday of every month where they give a bigger cut to artists if you buy that day.
Edit: Just realised you said you couldn't find the band on Bandcamp, oops.

Trivium, killswitch (with Howard Jones), and dio are all great. Metallica sucks.

I look like Dad, but I'm a fuckin new guy to metal. To his credit, my best friend got me to appreciate Ozzy, Metallica, and Dio in high school. But it took Dimmu Borgir live in Oslo with the choir and orchestra to finally make harsh vocals click for me. I like thrash, speed, power, melodic, folk, prog, and some select black metal. I try not to support Nazi bands.

I feel like I have achieved true metal nirvana since I stopped caring about silly labels. They're only half useful for finding new stuff anyway. If the music activates my dopamine generators, I like it. The only thing I avoid is gutturals, I don't want a fucking horror movie creature on the microphone, thank you.

I'm not really into metal, but I dabble a bit because I like great guitar playing in any genre, but I appreciate your stance. I'm like you, but with other genres like Classical, Jazz, Blues, World Music, and Classic Rock. There are a lot of gatekeepers in those genres, and I like to guide noobs past them, and into new music they can love.

If you like Type O, listen to Woods of Ypres
Not heard of them, thanks for the recommendation, that'll be tonight's listening sorted!
