Hello NGS and all you metal heads.
I'm in the mood for hard, head banging metal. But I don't like the crazy weird screaming the whole time. I don't mind it for parts of the song, but I'd like to hear some words.
Really I'm just looking for some beginner's metal. Great guitar parts, some fast, out of control singing, and loud bass/ bass drums.
Can anyone recommend some artist or specific songs?
k thanks.
 
devil wears pradalisten to dogs can grow beards all over, might not be concidered mtal, but the lyrics and the song isnt ded ass depressingfun band to listen to and to ski to
 
Opeth has some very melodic folk like metal and some hard banging with singing and with screaming in some songs too. I've also been listening to a lot of Falconer lately, it's medieval metal, kinda cool, with no screaming. Megadeth is a must too. If you want some movemental stuff, look up Dream Theater. Look up Apocalyptica too, they are 4 cello's that cover metal songs, mostly Metallica stuff. Then onto the thrash/screamo stuff, Children of Bodom

another fun band, if you like the depressing shit (like tool), this is not for you, but if you like upbeat take a look
 
All that remains is pretty good, heres some songs by them

Two weeks

chiron

overcome

forever in your hands

and death in my arms

Killswitch engage

Rose of sharyn

daylight dies

breathe life

this is absolution

when darkness falls

take this oath

both bands are great these are just a few songs that i like, theres a ton more by them but it would take forever to list. ATRs latest album "overcome" is really good as is KSEs album as daylight dies, and the end of heartache
 
That is NOT metal. Thats fuckin tight pants wearing hair flipping emo fag right there This is metal.

And if you're more of a chig chugh type of guy....

 
Heres one more. I know you said "beginners metal" but I will not suggest fucking pussy shit. You wont get any respect from a true metal fan.

 
trivium is pretty sick too, i saw them at mayhem festival this year. heres a couple songs by them

Detonation

Ignition

Pull harder on the strings of your martyr

a gunshot to the head of trepidation
 
if you like catchy guitar and awesome drums check out Kalmah, Chidren Of Bodom, Ensiferum(folk Metal, Awesome!!!), The Devil Wears Prada, As I Lay Dying, AUGUST BURNS RED. its endless
 
im not talking about the lyrics, a metal noob wont understand them anyway.... im talking about the overall beat/mood of the song bro
 
i agree, they are one of the first metal bands i started listening too. they are heavy and it is mostly screaming, but in my opinion the screaming is alot better for first getting into metal plus jeremy sings well too at parts.
