The Music Recommendation Thread

Since most music lovers enjoy expanding their playlists, I thought a music recommendation thread was in order.

If the members of ND dont want this thread here just delete it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I guess I'll start off.

A band that I found quite recently is Ikuinen Kaamos, maby you have heard of them. They are a progressive death/black metal band from Finland and their debut album "The Forlorn" is already one of my favorite metal albums. Their second album "Epilogue" is delayed! But I cant fucking wait for it!

To me it sounds like early Opeth meets early Ulver.

The thread is a cool idea. I'd like to hear Ikuinen Kaamos with better production. It may be just this youtube compressed audio. Musically, it sounds cool.

The cd does not have the best production but youtube makes it way worse then it is on the record. The only place I found their record were on their own homepage www.ikuinenkaamos.net . It's well worth the 15 euros. I think you can download two of their songs for free if you have a lastfm account.

Yeah I agree this kind of thread is a good idea, we welcome this sort of thing.

When I think of some good stuff to recommend, I'll mention it here....

Some of my best discoveries of this year have been as follows:

DOOMSWORD

Doom / Epic trad metal band from Italy. Really can't compare them to anyone. Maybe if Candlemass were more trad than doom, maybe?

http://www.myspace.com/officialdoomsword

PAGAN ALTAR

Amazing cult doom band from the UK. Became active again a couple years ago.

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...endid=60090238

SOLSTICE

Yeah, I am a little late for the game on these guys, I know. Also, from the UK.

http://www.myspace.com/solsticeenglander

I can come up with tons more, though I will try to keep it to bands that I think would possibly appeal to NOV DOOM fans. (IE - the new POWER QUEST and DRAGONFORCE discs are great, though I am not sure how many folks here would be interested)

15 Euro is $22 US, and then include shipping, it gets pricy to say the least.

Also, anyone recommends a band, post an example like the OP with a youtube video or link to the myspace page, to make it easier on anyone wanting to check them out. This thread was a good idea, so let's try to keep this one on topic, and a good resource for new music.

AJATTARA

If you haven't heard them, you should. I've mentioned them several times on here, and we've played with them in Europe, as they joined us on the DVD recording show. Finnish band, with Pasi (Ex-Amorphis) on vocals.

AJATTARA - ...Putoa


AJATTARA - Haureus


AJATTARA - Hurmasta

I think the price includes shipping but 22 dollars is still alot.

Another group I've recently started to like is Cult of Luna, they are pretty big in Sweden but I dont know if they are known abroad. Their latest record "Eternal Kingdom" is realy good. They play som sort of doom/post-metal.

Finland is probably the best song on their myspace.

They sound abit like Novembers Doom but in finnish

Another good Finnish band is Tenhi. They remind me of Agallochs folky stuff.

MARTRIDEN

A newer US band, and they even have a forum here on UM. This is the song that made me a fan. I personally love the EP they released, and the full length has the same great production and song writing, but for me, leaving behind the death metal style vocal on the full length and just using the black metal style disappointed me, only because I'm really picky with growlers, and I thought this guy was fantastic on the EP. Anyway, bad ass stuff here!

MARTRIDEN - The Art of Death Infernal
