Need...metal...music...recomandation.

Parkway Drive? They're an Australian band too ;D
Actually now that I think about it, they are a bit screamo, you may need to see if you can tolerate it hehe.

Local bands mean nothing to me-but if it's heavy with meaning I may give it a shot :)Any more youtube demos to trial out ?

Scare yourself with these...not for everyone (you have been warned), but a couple of my favorite bands.Bloodbath - "Hades Rising"

If you want good metal. Go for Amon Amarth. Norwegian Death Metal!

You should probably look at more foreign metal bands. That's where you'll find the good stuff.Scar Symmetry is fantastic. Especially The Missing Coordinates, Holographic Universe, Ghost Prototype I and II, Slaves to the Subliminal, Deviate from the Form. In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, The Black Dahlia Murder, Insomnium, Becoming the Archetype, Arch Enemy, Moonspell, are just a few.

don't look at english bands, we don't have any good ones.

I'm limited to what my music stores bring in-and I already have enough time going into a store to buy music-let alone the nich'e shops.But I do have maximum the hormone (jap metal XD) and Rammstien (can't understand a word-but my part german friend translates the meaning of the songs preety well XD)May get Lordi as well at some point-I saw an album today but price was out of my budget (system of a down-$15-nightwish-$25) so another time...

Loonylion · #26don't look at english bands, we don't have any good ones.

It's mostly american imports from where I buy my stuff-thus explains my collection...JB-you done it again XD

Loonylionlinkin park is not metal.

Linkin Park can be classified as Metal, albeit softer than other bands.

Jokes obviously...No meaning in manufactured SHITE!If anyone has more suggestion....if you post a youtube demo that would be awsome thanks again :)

I'm having some trouble coming up with names since I forgot my mp3 player at home but here's one for you to try.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1paHht1QGY&feature=channelI'll see if I can think up something else in the meantime if you're interested. =/

Sorry, i can't log on to yt now, but here are some suggestions:Finntroll
Korpiklaani <-- very cool folk/death metal bandsIn Flames <-- melodic deathmetalManowar <-- kinda cheesy now, but their older albums are a heavy metal feastSoilworkAlas - similar to NightwishChildren of Bodom

Take it from an old head banger. Worship the Sabbath!

Alas-if it has those uniquie female lyrics I may be interested...

Not bad...but I can't understand the guy...too much growling :(Just the way I am-need to feel the lyrics as well-not someone competing with the guitars...Don't know why that is-used to like that sort of thing...how odd...maybe I just want new things these days...Anyone else-bear in mind I already bought 2 new cd's thanks to this thread-night wish ( :D) and system of a down (not bad...needs more substance...worth a go when I'm driving fast though XD)

You can check youtbe for Alas - Absolute Purity, my favorite song :)

check out the band Rev Theory, they opened for buckcherry when i went to see them.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSZY1leVDZc

You'll like Scar then. Mostly clean vocal work mixed with death growls.
