Metal recommendations...

So is there any good metal without the dudes shouting and all? I just listened to an In Flames song, Dead End and I was like "yeah this actually sounds pretty good" with the womans voice and then some dude comes in and ruins it?!:?

I just wanna know if there are any bands that are not so insane on the vocals, something similar to Metallica, the lead singers voice is not that bad.

Recommendations please. :)

But the screaming makes the music good :D

This band has growling and singing.

A little feeling inside of me was hoping that this was going to be a thread about rocks and minerals and such :(forgot_it

Sonata Arctica has no screaming. And the singer looks like Jesus. :o harashawn

Just avoid their latest album, Unia, which is totally different from anything they've done lately and, imo, much crappier

I'd suggest Scandinavian metal-Dream Evil, Hammerfall, Primal Fear, and many more besides, as well as most cIassic metal.thepwninator

Ugh. Could never get into Hammerfall. At all. if German power metal is on the table though, i'd mentioned Primal Fear already, but i'd also add Helloween.

I have no idea what happened with that last album; it was total garbage.

I'll just give album recommendations

Megadeth - Rust in Peace, Peace Sells But Who's Buying, the System has Failed (for newer, yet not crap, stuff)

Iron Maiden - Number of the Beast

Dream Theatre - Train of Thought, Metropolis Pt 2 Scenes from a Memory

Symphony X: the Odyssey, the new one Paradise Lost isn't bad either. No bad albums from them really, though V is harder to get into

Slayer: Seasons in the Abyss, Reign in Blood, South of Heaven (for a bit slower)

Testament: Practice What You Preach (for older style), the Gathering (for newer). The new one, Formation of Damnation, isn't too bad. Just know that the older stuff has less gruff vocals

Bonded by Blood: they only have one album. rules though

Municipal Waste: Art of Partying, newest album, is the best

Overkill: don't listen to enough overkill, but no particularly bad albums. they're renowned for putting out the same album again and again.....

Nevermore: This Godless Endeavour, Dead Heart in a Dead World, Politics of Ecstasy and Demise

Primal Fear: Seventh Seal, new one "New Religion" isn't bad

Katatonia: Viva Emptiness, latest cd isn't bad either

Evergrey: Recreation Day, Inner Circle (concept album!)

Hammerfall: don't know enough, as I don't like them

Sonata Arctica: Silence

Mercenary: The Hours that Remain

particularly good songs

Megadeth: Holy Wars

Iron Maiden: Hallowed Be Thy Name

Symphony X: Inferno

Slayer: War Ensemble

Testament: Envy Life (old), More than Meets the Eye (new)

Bonded By Blood: Immortal Life

Municipal Waste: sadistic magician

Overkill: Bats in the Belfry

Nevermore: My Acid Words

Primal Fear: Rollercoaster

Katatonia: My Twin

Evergrey: Recreation Day

Hammerfall: again, don't know

Sonata Arctia: Wolf and the Raven

Mercenary: REDEFINE ME!!!!

happy youtubing ;)

I know it's completely not what you asked for but the new Cannibal Corpse album is awesome.gasmaskman

[QUOTE="lonewolf604"][QUOTE="gasmaskman"]I know it's completely not what you asked for but the new Cannibal Corpse album is awesome.sAndroid17

[QUOTE="sAndroid17"][QUOTE="lonewolf604"] Nothing against Death Metal or anything...but how can you stand that stuff.....For a while now I've been trying to get into Death Metal, but I can't see the appeal. The vocalists sound like they're throwing up, and the lyrical content is weird and disturbing.lonewolf604

if you can listen to, hardcore or whatever(eww)jk, you should be able to listen to Death and wintersun, they're both kinda soft death metal

[QUOTE="lonewolf604"][QUOTE="sAndroid17"] just the 'Gutteral" vocalists, maybe you would prefer the more High pitched BM style screams, i.e Wintersun, Old COB, DEATH! the lyrical content is basically for shock valuesAndroid17

[QUOTE="sAndroid17"][QUOTE="lonewolf604"] The only thing close to Death I can take is Underoath (yes yes I know they aren't really death metal. the vocals are more tolerable for me)thepwninator

[QUOTE="thepwninator"][QUOTE="sAndroid17"]oh well, you should listen to Death, everyone should1!!~~!#sAndroid17

[QUOTE="sAndroid17"][QUOTE="thepwninator"] I disagree-I prefer power metal, thrash, and cIassic metal, myself :Pthepwninator
