Sometimes I want to listen to really hard metal and can't find anything hard enough
 

It is hard to explain, but sometimes I just get in the mood were I want music to kick my ass and I can't find anything that can do it. And I go through all the usual suspects too like Slayer, Pantera and Superjoint Ritual, and a bunch of death metal and black metal and all of that, but none of it seems to be hard enough for me. I don't know what to do.

I guess I should just fight someone.

Dude, if Slayer isn't hard enough, I doubt any of those are.

i dunno, Slipknot?

try some N*Sync. SammyG swears by it.

Beneath The Massacre
The Acacia Strain

try those

Underoath's albums "Act of Depression" and "Cries of the Past".

Zao

Black Dahlia Murder
Immortal
Death

Although fighting would work, too.

If you listen to then and want some hard stuff then check out their first Self Titled album...Killswitch is my second favorite band but even I will admit that as they have gone on their music has gotten a little softer with each CD.

Mayhem

Venom

Just for mention Opeth I'm going to ignore you. The people that like Opeth don't like metal.

Dunno, only black metal bands that would come close to what you're after are someone like Immortal or if you're after a real ear-bleeder, Anaal Nathrakh.

As far as death metal goes try Nile, Immolation, Suffocation or Cryptopsy.

Thrash ain't gonna cut it if you're after something really extreme, only the odd song here and there. Pantera went pretty harsh on TGSTK though, always worth a listen if you're pissed off.

Oh and another recommendation is Pig Destroyer, grind band as opposed to all-out metal but still, they're pretty brilliant. They make a noise like you'll never have heard before (I think) and without bass gits either, good shit.

Marillion. :shifty:

Yeah word

I'm psyched, get to see Nile for free this summer.

Nile do possibly the best song intros in the world ever x infinity

Cannibal Corpse, even tho they suck.

Yes.


Also, 40 Below Summer are pretty good.

Cannibal Corpse are not hugely 'hard', and they're actually pretty proficient musicians, they just don't tend to mix it up a whole lot:D

Old Ministry like their self titled and Land of Rape and Honey..

Saosin and Chiodos for hard bands that suck

Neurosis for a hard band thats good

Warkult

Saosin is a hard band?

Howard's original band, blood has been shed, is also pretty heavy.

Yeah, they are way heavier then even KsE's first album.

Assman are you fucking kidding me with Saosin and Chiodos

Seriously though Mayhem wins

Depends what you want...like when you say heavy are you after grind, breakdowns, loud?

Limp Bizkit.....i couldn't type that with a straight face.

Mayhem suck


Dunno how you can say a comically dressed black metal band with intentionally terrible, tinny production could be 'harder' than some good old Brutal death metal, eejit:foc:

None of the stuff mentioned thus far are heavy enough.

BTW, I have impossibly high standards for metal and how how hard and heavy and metal it should be.

If you want heaviness then the heaviest stuff is doom/sludge that kinda thing, metal is heavy but with most extreme metal the speed of it takes away from that.

I honestly think you're after something that doesn't exist though.

Yeah if Beneath The Massacre isn't hard enough youre nuts

BDC likes it hard.

Black Metal owns Death Metal

Horde is a pretty good black metal band.

I have the same problem with Rock. I listen to songs and I thin khow awesome they'd be if they were heavier. Instead of Heavier Rock, I get Heavy MEtal, though, and then I think how awesome some of that would be if it was just...HEAVIER.

I might have to give them a listen

Listen to the song Eucharist.

How about some strapping Young Lad... they just get heavier. Perhaps even some old Carcass, try their albums Necrotism or Heartwork.
Vision of Disorder - Imprint
Will Haven - WHVN
Bongzilla - any ... they're DAMN heavy, but as the name suggests, DAMN slow

Cryptopsy's "Slit Your Guts" and "Emaciate" should pretty much eviscerate you from 200 yards away.

So you pack of homos are really trying to tell me that if I don't think Slayer is hard enough, this shit is really going to be better? Really? You fags think so?

I like Slayer, but Cryptopsy makes Slayer out to be a bunch of old housewives at a Tupperware party.

40 Below Summer - Training Day is pretty good

Fine, I'll take a listen.

None So Vile is in the top 5 metal albums ever, period

Slayer really isnt all that hard :-\

I agree, some old school metal fans will think it's blasphemous but I think there's a lot heavier then Slayer.

:mad::rant::lol:

Good shit

That's awesome, and you guys are playing with Immortal? That's totally cool. :love:

Hate it. It reeks of trying.

They are ok, not great.

How is slayer not hard?

They arent as hard as Black Metal or Death Metal

How is slayer not hard enough then, BDC?

This is all just really hard and angry stuff. Not sure if it qualifies as metal.

The Number Twelve Looks Like You
Daughters
The Chariot
The Jonbenet


Give them a go.

Arsis ( probably the best Death metal band to make a record since CS untimely demise )

Boris ( Japanese Stoner rock )

Khanate ( Brutal Brutal Drone Metal )

Anata ( Pretty wicked technical Death metal band )

Demilich ( Jazz metal with the lowest vocals you'll ever hear )

EYEHATEGOD ( Gold ole' Southern Sludge metal )

Gorguts ( terrific metal band, their album Obscura will blow your face off )

Sleep ( Greatest stoner metal band, Dopesmoker and Jerasulem rule )

Mithotyn ( Folk metal, but still 100x harder then any of the shit listed in this thread )

Sunn 0))) - no need to explain with such a kvlt name like this.

Sepultura is my favorite for heaviness.

The Chaos AD album is the best shit ever.

Not thrashy but quick, technical, and tuned down guitars for a very heavy sound.

Sepultura is awesome

Ninti, thank you. I keep forget Sepultura existes. They are probably good because they have been around for a bit and aren't some new piece of shit claiming to be hard.

Reminds me, i need to buy some Sepultura on CD.

Dragonwind

Wait, not what is that other one...Dragon Force, I hear they rule.

If they are the same band I'm thinking of, then they are like Iron Maiden except with a huge amount of gay thrown in.

Naa, that's Judas Priest.

Is Avenged Sevenfold even heavy anymore? The last few songs I've heard from them were like ballads.. :o

And while I love TDWP, I don't know if BDC is going to care for a christian metalcore band. :p

Ion Dissonance are heavy as fuck.
