In Need Of... (in Off-topic)

Some decent heavy music that I can wipe my mind away with.
For all those out there that know my situation, it has turned sour and
I need to cleanse my soul.
For reference I like:
NonPoint
Seether
Staind
Godsmack
Bush
Puddle of Mudd
Shattersphere
Hatebreed
Lamb of God
State of Shock
Pearl Jam

If you know anything I could add let me know.

Check out:

Protest the Hero
Trigger Point
HORSE the Band
Mastodon
Opeth
Silent Civilian
Thrice
Veil of Maya

All very, very good metal bands.

In Flames.

Kittie
Slipnot
Pantera
Metallica
Megadeth
Slayer
Tool

I used to like Kittie a lot. My tastes have changed a lot recently, though. I think the only metal I still like these days is In Flames. I haven't really paid much attention to any other bands.

Saliva
Chimera
Smashing Pumpkins (songs like Bullet with Butterfly Wings and Doomsday Clock)
P.O.D
Breaking Benjamin
Down
Drowning Pool
Soil
American Headcharge

Those should fit nicely around your list but just as an addition for a little happy look up Hayseed Dixie :)

A lot of those I already had, i still want more just do me one thing
please don't post screamers, i want to feel every emotion, understand every word, know exactly whats going on.

have you tried Pandora? great thing.

Or Last.fm if you're not US

BRIDE

Zog im in the USA as much as you physically can be lol
im in texas

Any obscure (or not so obscure) power/symphonic European metal band.
Personally, I like:

Nightwish -- I know Zog doesn't agree with me, but man, can Tarja sing. And Tuomas can write like a beast.

Dragonland -- Good band, IMO.

Rhapsody of Fire -- Epic.

Helloween -- Classic.

Metallica -- Kind of a no-brainer... MoP and One are especially good.

Sonata Arctica -- If you can stand the singing, go for it.

Within Temptation -- Not too loud, but pretty calming. Lyrics are nice, too.

Kamelot -- The only good U.S. power metal band. Listen to their albums "Epica" and "The Black Halo" (in that order); they tell a pretty powerful story.

Epica -- Stole their name from one of Kamelot's albums, but still, pretty good band.

Apocalyptica -- Metallica. On cellos.


Just a run-down of some of the bands I listen to... Hope it helps!

Great song, thought you might like it. ;)

Marl your a man after my heart, i have all those artists you listed already but yes thats what im aiming for

Oh. Lol. ;)

"Within Temptation -- Not too loud, but pretty calming. Lyrics are nice, too."

I listen to WT a lot.
I started listening when I still liked metal. I didn't add them because I don't really consider them to be metal any more. That's my personal opinion, I know they technically are, but yeah.

Hmm... CDWow still haven't shipped my copy of The Black Symphony...

Dragonforce? o.O

DragonForce gives me a headache. ;)

Haste The Day
The confession (Recommend these guys the most).
Bullet for my valentine
Children of Bodom (finish metal woot!)
Dimmu borgir
A day to remember
Liferuiner
Iwrestledabearonce
Attack attack!
Drop dead gorgeous




Softer stuff:
Pierce the veil
Emarosa
Agraceful
Greeley estates
Cinematic Sunrise

Just got back from Locofest(another post coming soon on that one! :D), and aside from the three major headliners (Mudvayne, Nonpoint, and In This Moment) who *jammed* with a vengeance, other bands I found to be *awesome* were:

Hed P.E
Shortfuse
Bury the Broken
Kryterium
A Quiet Mind
In the Trench

Disturbed (Second album I think)
Breed 77 (River)
Streets (Dry your eyes)
Busta Rhymes remix of M.O.P. 'Ante Up'
Perfect Circle (Passive)

And to hear the most uplifting song in the world;

Dhaler Mendi 'Tunak Tunak Tun'
