>>129343050You posted the wrong album
you all wear bitterness like a badge
>>129343050That's a "prog"/power metal album though. Infester and Svensson-era At The Gates are probably the closest we got to "solved" DM.
Karnivool just dropped AOTY Mayhem dropped more mid shit
>>129342974>>129343116Maybe true, but we'll see
>>129342952Anyone else not care how "heavy" or "brutal" a band or album is? I just like good metal riffs.
>>129343230When I hear people describe anything as “heavy” I want to bash my skull against the wall. It’s cringe. >Hey r/metalforthemasses, can you recommend me some good heavy bands!>Wow, Sleeptoken is some of the best heavy music out there!
>>129343250>can you recommend me some good heavy bandsWhat's wrong with this? Clearly someone who wants good trad heavy metal.
>>129343278>That shit>Heavy
>>129343290Yes, it's even in the name.
>>129343301Heil

>>129343172Done. Broadly it sounds like a faster or more blasty Daemon (itself DMDS with an Esoteric Warfare coat of paint) with bits of Chimera's technical riffing. Unfortunately, the songs are pretty indistinct from each other. So I'll agree, mid.
>>129342974this is dangerously close to n*gru eupm

>>129343692>S tier: black metallegit didn't even look at the rest lolbmcels are embarrassing
ok, this template is better
US Power Metal would be easy S tier, but it wasn't there in the tiermaker. Epic Metal = Epic Heavy Metal (Manowar, Manilla Road, DoomSword, etc.)
>>129343735>progressive black metal
>>129343747now that I think about it, by "progressive black metal" they probably meant Dissoslop, I should've put it in E Tier together with avant-slop
>>129343692>>129343735Genres are aesthetics and have no heads or tails guarantee of quality. Some of these are just a couple genres blended together. Several, even, contain bands with contradicting aesthetics (MDM, compare A Mind Confused to The Halo Effect), or have no coherent aesthetic at all (avant-garde).Ultimately there are two great metal genres, traditional and extreme, containing various in-metal alloys and subgenre distillations, and overlapping with elsewhere in music through hybrid genres. I fear I will have to draw a Liturgy-manifesto-esque diagram of this at some point.
The only real genres are Heavy, Doom, Speed, Power, Thrash, Death, and Black Metal. Everything falls as a sub genre of that, or is not a trve genre. Things like prog/folk/symphonic arent real sub genres because they are too generalist, you can have folk bands are just heavy metal but folk instruments/elements and you can have black metal with folk instruments/elements, those two would sound very distinct from each other. The same goes for prog, progressive thrash and prog heavy end up sounding very differently from each other.

>>129343812how do I become this based

Grave are one of the most consistent death metal bands yet no one talks about them.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3q3ZQaISqE
>>129346894I'd argue Dismember is as consistent at a higher level. Grave is a very good band but they're kind of an also-ran.Better body of work overall than Entombed though.

>>129346560Ignorance of the law is no excuse.
>>129346902Ehhh I disagree. Although I'm probably the only person who prefers the second half of their career. Indecent and obscene has such shit tier mixing it's just a pile of shit. First album is nothing special. Massive killing capacity is pretty good then they released 2 shitty/mediocre albums with a great EP in between. Then 3 good albums.
>>129346902>>129346925But to actually reply to your post and not just spew my opinion I absolutely agree, Dismember has higher highs.

How did you end up touring with Death?>“During the Leprosy tour one of his guitarists dropped out, and he called to see if I could fill in for some shows in Mexico. I was still in high school, but I learned the set in a few days and jumped on. He offered me a spot in the band then, but I went back to Cynic.>“He brought me in again during Spiritual Healing, and finally during Human when he needed a full band. By that point, we had years of trust between us. I brought in Sean on drums, and that took things to a whole new place.”>“Being openly gay in metal was another kind of challenge. The scene often leaned into a hypermasculine, armored aesthetic that I never related to. By the time of the Human era I’d already come out to my family and close friends.So did Chuck groom Paul?

>>129348606Autumn Eternal is a bit shit but I'm a drumfag. When he removes all hillbilly like that it tends to suck. His newer material usually incorporates some of it but I still think RttN is his peak.Both And Again Into the Light and The Rime Of Memory get plenty hillbilly, but not as much as earlier stuff sure. I am an atmoshitter and a drumfag though and he typically satiates both of those kinks pretty well.
