exactly the same for me

Black crown initiate

Gojira and Death

When i saw Gojira live at my first ever concert (knotfest Iowa 2021), i was blown away. That first scream from Joe Duplantier on Born for One Thing changed my entire perspective on music.

Death solidified what gojira did to my taste and introduced me into the world of death metal and progressive death metal. I discovered Opeth shortly after, which became my favorite band.

Sound of Perseverance is what got me into death metal. People don't give that album enough praise.

Whenever you are in the add song menu thing, it only allows you to listen to a preview. Just listen to the song outside of the add song menu. I find it easier to add songs to my playlist better outside of that menu anyway.

$3,000 should be more than enough for a really good drum kit. I'm not sure what exact drum kit you should get, but i would look into brands such as Pearl, Ludwig, Tama, and Yamaha (I might be forgetting another big one). I would order a drum kit from Sweetwater.com.

Needs some metal. (Ghost doesn't count)

The IVth Crusade is the 2nd best death metal album of all time. This is factual and can be proven with scientific evidence.

CDs and vinyl sound exactly the same (assuming you are comparing similar quality players and sound systems). Vinyl are cool because they are big and nice looking. CDs came around because they are more convenient to use and store. CDs are replaced by streaming for the same reason. I don't think CDs will make a comeback because they are just the disadvantages of vinyl and streaming. They are inconvenient, like vinyl, without looking as cool as vinyl.

Nightmares Made Flesh by Bloodbath is perfect and quite fast. Probably not your style, but it slaps.

Hammer Smashed Face by Cannibal Corpse

Crack the Skye and Leviathan by Mastadon

Album Blackwater Park by Opeth

No

Opeth - Harlequin Forest

After the guitar solo in creeping death by metallica. There are harder ones, but this is the first that comes to mind.

I barely remember anything from a concert after it is over

Do it. I don't personally like the weekend, but i do know that concerts can get you into new music. Knotfest Iowa last year got me into so many new bands.

25,000 minutes

I use spotify because it is the only service built into consoles. I like to game and listen to music. Also, my sister pays for my premium through the duo plan, which is a really good deal (not paid to say this).

Go to r/metal and go to the rec center for today

Blackwater Park by Opeth

From Mars to Sirius by Gojira

Symbolic by Death

One of the first 4 metallica albums

Lateralus by Tool

Toxicity by System of a Down

Nightmares Made Flesh by Bloodbath

Leviathan or Crack the Skye by Mastadon

Fair point. People tend to credit still life for that, but yes, my arms, your hearse was definitely the turning point.

Out of all the Opeth albums you pick My Arms, Your Hearse? I guess all Opeth albums are 10, but I say Blackwater Park, Damnation, or Still Life are better.

This is the truth. I listened to this album again recently, and these 2 songs are the best.

I love death metal, but if you listen to just pure death metal for too long, you will melt.
