SVARTSOT - Graspop Metal Meeting 2024

the band ones are done *epic thumbs up*

[birdofmay]

do have metal recommendations? I'm new to it. really completely new

*typing up a storm* You just activated the autism in me! 😄

Alright, here's a brief overview. Followers, feel free to recommend songs in the comments, if you listen to metal.

What bands you should know, at least their names:

Black Sabbath, Sepultura, Kiss, Van Halen, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Pantera, Anthrax, Helloween.

No need to know and like their songs, just know that they exist. There are some more, but you'll encounter them eventually anyway, I'm sure. Note that certain old bands are controversial now, for example Pantera and Metallica.

Some recommendations:

Heavy Metal:

The "How it began" part. Just check out Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and Black Sabbath. You should know

Thrash Metal:

The earlier albums of Metallica, Testament, Exodus, and of course Slayer. "Raining Blood"

is well known, and I connect "Bloodline"

with long road trips as a child.

Doom Metal:

Some Black Sabbath is also considered doom metal. Apart from that I recommend Pentagram and Witchfinder General.

Black Metal:

Not mine, personally, except for certain derivatives, but they'll come later. I like very few black metal songs. They are:

Death Metal:

Many subgenres, I personally prefer Melodic Death Metal. Cannibal Corpse is well-known and also Obituary. Check out Debauchery, some In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, and Arch Enemy too. Recommendation:

But to be honest, most Children of Bodom songs sound alike 😂

Dark Metal/Gothic Metal:

Hard to sort the whole discography of one band into this subgenre. Some Cradle of Filth, some Sirenia, some Samsas Traum, Type O Negative. I also like

Power Metal:

Sabaton, Powerwolf, Manowar (not everything), HammerFall, Grave Digger (not everything), Sonata Arctica, some Blind Guardian. Power Metal often has characteristics of Symphonic Metal in some songs, so it's hard to put one band in one strict category.

Symphonic Metal:

Nightwish, Xandria, Within Temptation, Epica. Too many favourites to recommend a specific song.

Progressive Metal:

Dream Theater, Opeth, Tool, Symphony X. Specific song:

Folk Metal:

Some Ensiferum, Eluveitie, Týr, Finntroll, Svartsot, Korpiklaani. Also The HU for Mongolian representation 😎 Folk Metal is huge, I just focus on "northern" stuff because I'm "northern" too. Song recommendation:

Viking Metal:

This is actually a "Whatever, as long as it's about Norse stuff and the Viking age" genre. This is why many death metal, folk metal, and power metal bands ALSO are considered viking metal.

Amon Amarth are very well-known, I'd recommend

Pagan Metal:

Also a "Whatever, as long" category. Most folk metal bands are simultaneously pagan metal. Moonsorrow are more black metal but also pagan metal, which is why I'll briefly mention them here.

There also are Varg, but if I'm not mistaken they had some right wing stuff going on, so be careful there. I'm not sure what happened, but I think some of the band members openly supported a neonazi group. Could be that the members were kicked out after that, but even if everything is alright now, they still have a negative connotation.

Somewhere in between all this, there's Alestorm. They're also considered pirate metal, btw. But I'm not actively into that, which is why I put them somewhere in-between.

Industrial Metal:

This is your outsider, and I think every band considered "Industrial Metal" is at the same time considered 5 genres more. Rammstein, Nine Inch Nails, Eisbrecher (some would say it's Gothic), Ministry.

Nu Metal:

Some people would say "Nu Metal isn't metal!!!", but I like it anyway. Check out Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Korn, Disturbed. "Duality" by Slipknot is the song of a common meme ("I push my fingers into my eyes") 😄

Also Machine Head, but it's hard to categorise them. I just checked, Wikipedia says they're sometimes considered "neo-thrash". Well I guess they're a bit of everything, but their newer albums definitely have nu metal character.

Metalcore:

If you say you're a metalhead but only listen to metalcore, metalheads will hate you for this. Just so you know. ☝🏼 It's a valid genre, but you're on thin ice if you don't listen to other metal genres. There are many overlapping genres here, which is why, again, it's difficult to label bands.

Parkway Drive (some would scream that they're post hardcore), Silverstein (some would scream that they're hardcore punk, others that they're emo), As I Lay Dying, Killswitch Engage, Bullet For My Valentine (some would scream that they're emo, others would say they're heavy metal), Bring Me The Horizon depending on the song, August Burns Red.

Lamb of God are considered metalcore too, but in my opinion they're more metal than metalcore. Anyway I'll mention them here for the sake of classification.

Yeah, that's about it, I guess. This post is already very long, so I guess I better stop at this point. I hope from here on you'll manage to navigate through the big metal genre yourself 😄

P.S.: I forgot Trivium! "Feast Of Fire" is currently stuck in my head

Tagged by @miseryscrowned My 9 non-skip albums

Advocacy veröffentlichen neue Single "Star Formation"

"Star Formation", die neue digitale Single und das offizielle Video der dänischen Progressive-Metal-Combo ADVOCACY, ist heute erschienen. Das Setting ist inspiriert von post-apokalyptischen Geschichten, genauer gesagt, von der Zeit kurz vor der Apokalypse. Obwohl der Song nicht speziell aus biblischer Sicht oder als Kommentar zur aktuellen Klimakrise geschrieben wurde, beschreibt er dennoch eine unvermeidliche Konfrontation mit den Lebensentscheidungen und Fehlentscheidungen, die zu dieser Situation geführt haben könnten. Es ist aber auch ein Lied darüber, wie man in der dunkelsten Nacht einen Lichtblick findet, auch wenn es vielleicht nie wieder ganz so sein wird wie früher. Die Welt ist in diesen Tagen von immer größeren Unruhen bedroht, und wie das Jahr 2024 damit umgehen wird, ist noch ungewiss. Glücklicherweise werden nicht nur Tränen und Kummer zu hören sein, wenn die Lieder von diesem Jahr erzählen, denn zumindest eine Zeile im Musikkapitel kann die Veröffentlichung des lang erwarteten Debütalbums der dänischen Prog-Metal-Band Advocacy erwähnen. Auf "The Path of Decoherence", gemischt und gemastert von Frederik Uglebjerg (Svartsot, Trold), werden die Kompositionen der Band, die von den Fans des Genres bereits für ihre beiden vorangegangenen EPs gelobt wurden, komplexer und gleichzeitig heavier und melodischer, da die Band hochmotiviert ist, ihre musikalische Welt einem internationalen Publikum näher zu bringen. Auch wenn im Grunde genommen jede Pressemitteilung zu jedem Album da draußen die gleiche Geschichte erzählt, bitte hört euch "The Path of Decoherence" an, vergleicht es mit dem bisherigen Material von Advocacy und wagt es, uns herauszufordern. Mit einem Artwork von Disturbing Grace Design und einem vom Gitarristen der Band, Søren Wind, gestalteten Cover ist "The Path of Decoherence" ein klassisches Debütalbum einer untypischen, reifen Band für ihr erstes vollständiges Album. Advocacy wurde im Frühjahr 2015 in Aarhus, Dänemark, mit Einflüssen aus Metal, Jazz und Progressive Rock gegründet. Die Musik der Band ist facettenreich mit unorthodoxen Taktarten, dreistimmigen Gesangsharmonien und Kompositionen, die den Hörer auf eine musikalische Reise durch weite, dynamische Ebenen und komplexe Instrumentierung mitnehmen. Die lyrischen Themen basieren auf Existenzialismus, gesellschaftlichen Fragen und den stürmischen Tiefen des menschlichen Geistes. "The Path Of Decoherence" wird in digitaler Form von UPRISING! Records am 19. Januar 2024 veröffentlicht. "The Path Of Decoherence" tracklist: 1. The Path Of Decoherence 2. Prayer For the Reckless 3. Leap Of Faith 4. Star Formation 5. Cut Loose 6. Deranged 7. Interlude 8. Unnamed Lineup: Andreas Bek Nygaard Hansen – drums Søren Wind - guitar Peter Juelsgaard - bass Peter Locher - guitar Søren Kjeldsen - vocals, guitar Digital pre-save link: https://orcd.co/adv-path Web: Facebook Instagram Bandcamp Spotify Apple Music   Lesen Sie den ganzen Artikel

Svartsot | Kumbl (2022)

[leviabeat]

Asinhell will perform live for their first concert at Naestved Metalfest 2024

"Michael Poulsen (Volbeat, Asinhell) states, "The first time I stood and played death metal in Musikstalden in Næstved was in 1991. 33 years later, it has now become time again to find the death metal axe and be part of Næstved Metalfest with a new band, Asinhell. I'm looking forward to sharing horn and the love for metal with you all and my good old friend and arranger Michael Hvolgaard Andersen with whom I did my very first interview at home from the boys' room. See you out there and let the metal flow." "

Any recommendations for other folk metal bands? :D I've been enjoying Bloodywood a lot but haven't delved too far into the subgenre.

Some of the following bands are also at home in other genres (I'll put Viking and Pagan Metal in a Folk Metal playlist if the song is about something "normal" Folk Metal bands would write about or if there are folk instruments, for example), but:

Cruachan

Eluveitie

Ensiferum

Falconer (also power metal)

Falkenbach

Finntroll

Grai

Heidevolk

Korpiklaani

Skálmöld

Svartsot

I also have a "Folk and Viking" playlist on Spotify (which also contains pirate metal, etc., it's more based on vibes):

SVARTSOT's New Album "Kumbl" Out Now

SVARTSOT’s New Album “Kumbl” Out Now

Photo by Neil Poulsen Although it is now quite a while since SVARTSOT have released new material, the band is still very much alive and kicking. In the interim since 2015’s “Vældet”, the beer-soaked folk metallers have been active on the live scene in Denmark and abroad, including appearances at various major festivals as well as at the prestigious 70000 Tons Of Metal cruise in 2019.
