**NorthStar** · April 11, 2018, 09:21 PM

I listen to all type of music, 'grounded' as much as possible.

**tkcha** · April 12, 2018, 02:15 PM

Here some classic

**Kuoppis** · April 12, 2018, 02:40 PM

Sure, anything goes. From opera to heavy, depending on what I am up to.

Mostly listening to jazz, but as I play guitar, every now and then a little more energetic music is good (and I’m allowed as I have not quite passed the threshold yet).

I will be 69 in a few months, and just downloaded some Metal from HD Tracks last week, and probably some more tomorrow. Also like Rap, along with String Quartets, and female jazz singers.

Not 50 yet but I do listen to them

Yes!
Especially in car, usually Octane or Liquid Metal on XM. Have plenty of Lamb of God, Gojira, etc on the hard drive

**Mr Peabody** · April 12, 2018, 11:16 PM

Definitely. I'm branching out into classical, Jazz etc. but still Rocking.

I recently purchased the new Trivium, Sin and the Sentence, I like real well. I just discovered Underoath and like their new album Erase Me. I'm a big Disturbed fan. In This Moment is another band I really like, the album Beautiful Tragedy gets played a lot by me.

I also really enjoy bands like Tristania, Epica, Sirenia, Within Temptation, and some Nightwish.

Metal has to have some form for me to enjoy, even young I couldn't sit and listen to Speed Metal.

If anyone likes Metallica, the latest Hard Wired To Self Destruct is excellent. I grew a bit luke warm on them after the album with Sandman, I was well pleased with Hardwired though.

Pantera

Mt favorite Melodic Death Metal Band Dark Tranquility Atoma

**BlueFox** · April 13, 2018, 08:04 PM

Today's downloads from HDTracks. Although Bowie isn't Metal, I like the songs on this album.

May sound crazy, but I’m thinking the term “Metal Classic or Classic Metal” may need to come about, and then how do you define it so we’re all in agreement; style, vintage, other?

Today I listened System of a down for the first time about 3 years surprisingly sound good almost audiophile quality.

**sharkmouth** · April 19, 2018, 05:07 AM

recently bought these...

**Edward** · April 19, 2018, 05:57 AM

yes I love it! I also throw in alt rock too (e.g., Pearl Jam, STP, Nirvana, RHCP, etc.).

**DogsPart2** · April 19, 2018, 08:58 AM

well into my 6th decade and recently revisited the 1st Black Sabbath album.

As good, if not better than I ever remember.

I’m not into metal these days, but the boyfriend of the woman that cuts my hair is in After The Burial. I can’t get beyond the dude growling into the mic, but if that’s your thing, check the out.

The last of FFDP that I bought.... On my system this drummer would have to be one of the better fast paced stickmen I've heard for a while. When the weekend arrives, I turn the system on to warm up, do a few chores & grab a beer & the first listen as I sit down between the speakers ...... the blood quickens!

**BlueFox** · April 20, 2018, 10:57 PM

I wish my father was still around. He would be saying, “You spent $100K to play that?!?!”

**tkcha** · April 21, 2018, 12:06 AM

Oh Yaa Why not go ahead another 100k for you from your younger friend!!

Well now, even at 51, this is more what I would consider a drumming speedmeister

**Mr Peabody** · April 24, 2018, 10:24 PM

I was listening to Mastadon, Emporer of the Sand and happened to switch to Gojira, Magma, I noticed Magma was produced pretty well.

**XV-1** · April 28, 2018, 12:25 AM

Of Course!!!!!!!!!! Who doesn't like a a bit of hard rock or metal. I prefer a little industrial edge to my heavy stuff.

Nine Inch Nails - Year Zero, 2007 original Euro pressing - this will test your system with some of the incredible distortion inserted by Trent - perfect industrial electronica alt rock. amazing how an album 100% digitally created mostly on his laptop can sound so superb on vinyl and crap all over CD.

**tkcha** · May 8, 2018, 05:52 PM

Hey long time no see, I was away from cold Canada for 12 days in Cuba. Nice weather all the time got nice sun tan, lot of Rum and Cigar with my 3 of high school mates
from 1984 class. So now got back and some metal time. In Flames ,Whoracle(1997), Colony(1999) My 2 favorite In Flames Albums.

**nile49** · May 9, 2018, 01:43 PM

Will be catching Slayer's final tour in two weeks!

This just showed up today. Great record. They will be supporting them on tour. Can't wait.

Listened to Orphaned Land's "Mabool" today. Outstanding record!

Yep, I've got some Opeth. I liked Damnation but slow warming up to the newer Prog albums with clean vocals. Not that I have to have growling, the last couple just didn't do much for me.

I was listening to some Iron Maiden the other day and thinking most of these newer bands just aren't hitting the mark by comparison. I've got some new, Trivium, Asking Alexandria etc. decent but don't get the air guitar going like Maiden.

**tkcha** · June 10, 2018, 06:17 PM

If you guys like Symphonic Metal , Haggard they are my No.1. Eppur Si Muove

**Mr Peabody** · June 10, 2018, 10:09 PM

I'll check them out. I do like that leg of the Metal. My favorite is Tristania, I also have Sirenia, Epica and Nightwish, a few others.

What about Electronica, EDM/IDM? new Presets album is great.

**Mr Peabody** · June 10, 2018, 11:43 PM

You can start a thread on that, but this thread is about the head banging.

I like some extreme metal, such as Morbid Angel, Cryptopsy, Hate Eternal, Krisiun, Immolation, etc. Not a fan of the growled vocals (in fact I wish they were all instrumental bands!), but their musicianship is great, and the chaotic nature of much of their music reminds me a little of atonal classical music. I don't listen to it on a regular basis, though.
