The Heavy Metal thread

[Atsushi]

No prob! Their best are from the 80s but their current albums are good as well. If u interested, you can listen to them on utube before buying the albums. In short, the Bruce Dickinson as vocalist albums are the best.

for more info about them and their albums, visit here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Maiden or http://www.maidenfans.com/imc/?link=albums&url=index&lang=eng
The bar on your right will give u a guide on their album timeline. Their 1st album is 1980's self titled album and lastest effort is 2006's A Matter of Life & Death. Their normally considered best album is 1982's The number of the Beast.

Their colourful artwork is what attract me to them.

Maiden is not really M la They are Iron Maiden, its I. And yes, Megadeth's RIP is Rust In Peace.

haha yea i know maiden is not m :S
everywhere i go these days people with heavy metal t-shirts, Iron maiden's art is quite a common sight

thanks for the intro dude appreciate it

Personally, I think this is their best and 1 of the best Metal songs I've heard.



They not yet Jurassic la. Ozzy, Dio and gang then qualify for this tag. They more senior mans.

[icyhell]

i listen to metal all day haha. cos got many diff types of metal mahz, sometimes prog, den power, den death, den doom. liddat got variety.

 

[nenazmi]

i dun like ultra growling because it sounds like the vocalist doesnt know how to sing

i like to listen melodic vocals, or at least Clear growling.

my fav bands, metallica, slipknot, nightwish, blind guardian, lamb of god.

exactly dude, you can't have just one type of genre. I think majority of people have more than one type of genre they're listening to.

For me, i appreciate all types of music but at some point i really can't stand Indie or Reggie :S

Other than metal, i listen to really slow blues, lmao. "Neutralises" my ears so to speak =x hahaha

yea, can go crazy at times. can even get ear fatigue lol

 

[deathan9el]

love in slow motion - bleeding through.

underneath the waves - SYL.

i think what bands these days are doing is that they're trying to redefine probably, what heavy metal is all about. So they tweak the arrangements of olden metal here and there to fit into modern music.

There are bands out there that produce really sweet singing and at the same time, they can give great growlings. The rest are just really progressive,technical etc etc.

There are other bands with melodic tones such as In Flames, Soilwork, Killswitch Engage, etc etc too many to list

haha no jazz or classical for me as well please, lol.
those would put me to sleep straight away lol

actually i think the older we get, the more our ear tends to seek for a different type of genre to listen to.
like those that are much more relaxing and stuff like that lol.

in the past, i listen to alot of R&B alongside with metal lol
but i got bored of R&B so now listen to rock & roll and metal :X
sometimes sloooow rock song or certain punk song

 

[Atsushi]
