Self explanatory lol

Hello fellow metal listeners, recently I’ve been making my own patches and today I have been working on this Agalloch one. It’s not quite done yet, as I need to fill in the letters.

But I will admit I have started having doubts because I am doing this all by myself without asking my grandma for help. Is it normal to sew patches without needing/asking for help? Am I a true metalhead?

They really hit that sweet spot between hardcore sentiment, Lamb of God riffs, and a bit of sludge. Underrated band.

So, To be honest i am definitely not a Black Metal fan (at least not yet), but recently i came across the bands: MGTA and Babushka/ Patriarkh and i completely fell in love with them. I have tried some classic iconic black metal bands before but i didn’t like anything (Mayhem, Venom, etc).. I think my jam with this is the melodic and iconic riffs that both MGTA and Babushka have in their albums, is beautiful. Do you guys have some similar stuff to suggest? Thanks in advance!

It sounds like if ed sheeran suddenly decided to do progressive metalcore but he didnt want to lose that bedroom-pop edge.

I know they are like the biggest name in metal for some reason but i honestly cannot fathom why or how anyone thinks this shits hard.

Also as a side note, before we even get into the discussion of the bands lore, im just gonna come out and say that thats a terrible reason to enjoy a musical artist is for something completely unrelated to the actual music. Thats like saying dark souls 2 is the best one because it has the most story reveals of the whole series through item text.

It’s usually Nirvana and Pearl Jam that come to mind and in media when grudge era is talked about. I’ve always thought AiC were the best from that era. They were also on track for making their music more sophisticated lyrically and melodically, alas Layne passed away. Thanks to Jerry Cantrell, the legacy lives on.

I like lamb of god. I really like that gritty heavy sound. I think I like groove/metalcore based off the bands I listen to but I’m sort of new to metal so would like some recommendations thanks

I'm looking for bands with a sound similar to Furia from Poland. Thanks in advance

I mean it literally has a song called The Metal

Devourment would be baby back ribs

Mirror reaper would be one of those really long submarine sandwiches, but sad

You know… no particular reason.

What is “stoner-cum-doom” metal?”

I want recommendations of re-recorded metal albums.

I'm aware of Ecliptica by SA, Clayman by IF and the Cavalera's re-record of Sepultura.

So, I have my own taste in metal and try to go on "discovery phases" often when I am at work or I wear out my autism repeat streak for the day. I have been finding various bands through movie soundtracks just based on the stuff I liked as a kid and branched out. Currently I am ripping through "The Crow" (1994) Soundtrack and am seeing the likes of Pantera, NIN, and RATM on some of the tracks. I also have a love of some of the songs from the "Scorpion King" soundtrack.

Does anyone else find good songs or music recommendations this way?

apologies for my horrible drawing

They just dropped their first album and I think they are pretty solid

I liked basically every album of theirs, and was wondering if anyone knew more like them.

Alien Weaponry, Municipal Waste (big fan) and Kerry King (pictured).

I really enjoy the ethereal sounds of dream unending. i crave more

If you like DSBM listen to this gem. Don’t let the artwork fool you.

It's just Unleash the Archers for me, and it will be fulfilled in 3 weeks. Was Septicflesh at the Herodeon of Athens until recently, that was a spectacular show

Is there any good bm reccomendation similar to gorgoroth prayer, satan-prometheus, or anything from the quantos possunt album? Thanks
