@doctorsex you got any good metal recommendations?

I have recommendations; how metal you think they are or how good you think they are is up to you

@doctorsex well yeah no shit but let me hear em

I've been real big into drone/doom lately. Volume 1 by sleep was pretty good. Black One by Sunn O))) is good. Also I'm starting to come around on QOTSA, soundtracks for the deaf is pretty good

@doctorsex @beardalaxy Ever listen to Sleep? Or for a slower doom there’s Earth. I have to be in the right mood, but those guys are pretty awesome.

Earth was my gateway drug. Sleep I generally like but they're a bit more hit and miss for me

@doctorsex @beardalaxy Definitely gotta be in the mood for Sleep. I only really listen to their whole-album-length song dopesmoker To be honest. I think some of those guys are in High on Fire, who are pretty good. One of the guys from sleep is an orthodox monk and has this Deathtotheworld blog/zine.

@beardalaxy @doctorsex Gatecreeper, Insomnium, Amon Amarth, early In Flames, early At the Gates, Death, Gojira, Dark Tranquility, Skeletonwitch, Pulkas, Khemmis, Agalloch

Gatecreeper isn't bad. Gojira is evergreen. Khemmis is underrated. I'd throw primitive man up there too but I'd caution that the guys in that band are huge faggots

@eidolon @doctorsex thanks both of you, i'll check some of this stuff out.

i do like amon amarth. not a huge fan of death to be honest. i've heard some gojira stuff but definitely need to listen to more. i love early in flames and i love modern in flames as well, still kicks ass imo. this is still great: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_MSqS1-Ubs

i've been enjoying trivium and animals as leaders lately. also big recommendation to check out scythelord if you like some harder thrash stuff with screaming vocals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8MsGvNWE78

another one of my favorites that i haven't listened to in a while is "i built the sky" which is just no vocals more melodic stuff, think CHON but more metal and less math-rock: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pRQ9sGhkuQ
