hey can you recommend me good bands with good thrash riffs? i only know arch enemy right now.........
If you like Arch Enemy then you might like As I Lay Dying, Children of Bodom, In Flames, and Devildriver
lol scene kid music
Early metal and proto-metal is the best! Captain Beyond, Black Sabbath, Blues Creation...
Stoner metal is fun. High on Fire is excellent!
>Early metal and proto-metal is the best

Jimi Hendrix.
Don't listen to any of the posters so far. They are wrong.
Check out The Black Dahlia Murder, Dark Tranquility, and At The Gates. That's a bit more appreciable than the commercial shit they have been trying to feed you.

Ever wondered where the word "metal" comes from, when talking about music?
>>10
dude! tell me! I am also want to know!
>>10
Where the word metal comes from does not matter.
The point is that Jimi Hendrix IS TOTALLY NOT METAL.
And certainly not metal with "thrash riffs" like Arch Enemy. If the OP wants to listen to bands like Arch Enemy, he/she does not want to listen to Jimi Hendrix, or any other crappy old school rock.
>>10 Another theory is has it linked to the original British Heavy Metal bands coming from Liverpool, which is full of metal refineries. I remember listening to someone fro Black Sabbath or Judas Priest talk about listening to the metal banging all day long, as his school was right next to a foundry.
Anyways, I reccomend Iced Earth, Therion (the newer stuff, Black Sabbath, Slayer, and early Metallica (like Ride the Lightning)
So, what it really comes down to is that Hendrix's music has no definitive genre or group. Each person who's listened to his music has his own opinion. It can be blues, psychedelic, heavy metal, whatever.
>>15
Yeah, but I was just talking about one of the possible origins of the term.
And I am still convinced that everyone that listens to lots of disto-guitar based music should give Hendrix more than a shot.
There's no doubt in my mind that Hendrix influenced many heavy metal bands that would come after him.
Slipknot
>>18
Isn't Slipknot is grindcore? Enlighten me if I was wrong...
>>19
They actually are, but its a different slipknot, not the mainstream one....

Are you guys serious?? None of these are real metal bands.
Fuck commercialism. You won't find any of these band's CDs in a store.
Here are some oldschool underground bands:
Thrash Metal: Dark Angel/Nasty Savage
Prog Metal: Atheist/Watchtower/Spastic Ink/
Death Metal: Chakal/Infernal Death/Holocausto/Brutality/Master
Black Metal: SARCOFAGO (INRI is beastly)/Vlad Tepes
Fuck every other type.
Also check out this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-rb0dWLblM
It's "Christ's Death" by Sarcofago. One of the best black metal songs ever written. Also probably the scariest outro ever recorded in the history of music.
u want black metal? here is some:
http://www.mapofmetal.com/ comes with a handy collection of sample songs for each subgenre they present. Rather handy.
How about Burzum?
Wormrot.
Fucking awesome live band. They play their own style of grindcore.
Also, for the black metal fans: Damaar.
Old-school Metallica is the best when Cliff was still alive. "And Justice For All" was still good, but most of their later stuff was rather mediocre. "Master of Puppets" best album ever!
All of the ones below are power metal:
403 Forbidenna
Rhapsody (of fire)
Dragonforce
Animetal
Also Zero Degree is some good medolic death metal in my opinion
bathory
Dark Angel is a pure trash metal band. Give it a shot
>>50 eh, you sure that Burzum is trash metal? A song or two may resemble trash, but that's it.
