How did you live without...

I think this is only possible in hindsight as you don't know any better. You can't think, "Wow, I can't wait to discover this amazing band and have them completely reinvent my outlook on music!". But I find, when I hear a new band or song which I really love, it contrasts with everything else and makes it seem pretty, average.
I don't even know what I am talking about here.

The following album had the same effect on me in that the music is so amazing that it made me forget about many classic hard rocking/metal albums of yesteryear, although this "feeling" does have a tendency to happen every now and then...

... the metal style changed my outlook of music, and mainly IRON MAIDEN.

I think In Flames was really that band for me. THat was really when I started to turn onto the more extreme forms of metal. Before that it was more "friendly" metal, like thrash and traditional heavy, as well as some power.

Metal in general. When I was 16 and first heard death metal, I thought to myself "How did I not know about this? This is awesome!" after that, specific bands would be Avenger, Rotting Christ, Hell-Born, and Bolt Thrower and some others.

I have no idea how I survived without Opeth. They influenced me deeply and Mikael Akerfeldt is my idol, he gets my full respect.

The year: 1977 The group/album: Black Sabbath/We sold our souls for rock-n-roll I had been listening to bands like April Wine, Aerosmith, Boston.... And then I heard Black Sabbath. It was so dark and heavy. The bass and guitar sounded like something straight from hell. Ozzy's haunting wail sounded like a tortured soul trapped in hell. At the time I thought ...man is this some evil music. It was like I had found the key that opened a lock and the metal poured in. Then, there was Judas Priest with their speed and power - and, Halfords searing vocals.

Afte hearing Rammstein's debut album Harzeleid I couldn't believe I hadn't discovered them earlier.

Written by F0rang3l on 16.08.2010 at 13:54 Rammstein is ridiculous. Everyone loves them, yet their musicianship is pretty low. They barely alternate between two riffs a song and the techno keyboards everyone likes. They're pretty much a gimmick. Catchy songs, Lindemann's bass voice, German lyrics (seriously, kids think they're so cool for listening to "German metal") and stage performances akin to KISS. I like them too, they're great at making catchy and addicting music, but there's no need to praise them as some metal masters.

Written by vezzy on 16.08.2010 at 15:14 Well thats the industrial genre, two riffs a song and no solo and their stage performance is way more superior than KISS, I haven't seen anyone else do the things they do on stage.

Written by vezzy on 16.08.2010 at 15:50 He never claimed they they're 'musical wizards' or 'masters' as you say or even 'good' musicians, all he said was that he wish he had heard about them earlier.

That can be said with everyone's favorite bands he/she enjoys at the moment... Some of the greatest artists/bands that had or still have big impact on me: Eminem, Evanescence, Hammerfall, Korn, Disturbed, Within Temptation, Scar Symmetry.

Written by vezzy on 17.08.2010 at 12:01 Hardly. Just because I don't listen to some more extreme metal genres, doesn't mean I never tried.
