Yeah, never got into much Black Metal, sorry bro. There's a few metal people around here, though not many. I'm a deathcore/mathcore guy myself. Could recommend a shitton of that stuff. but you Dont seem to be into that stuff.
Whatever you've got. It seems a lot more people in the black metal community love deathcore. They say the chuggs really make the music. I love all types of music so I would love any and all music you enjoy.
Really? Seems to me to be the opposite. Black Metal fans are seemingly the most pretentious right up there with Djent. Death Metal gets a pass, but it's cousin Deathcore is somehow looked at like it's Nu-metal or something (which I personally see nothing wrong with myself). But you talk to Black Metal fans, Whitechapel may as well be Korn. I like both, but cmon. I've had almost this same argument with people online before.
I'm a chug-fan in alot of stuff, but not too much down-tempo/beatdown type stuff really. But I pretty much hate shredding. I really prefer the more noisy, abstract guitar styles of bands like The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza and Carbomb. Though some chuggy/droney Meshuggah style stuff still can be really good even though it's overdone by now.
What sounds are you digging in heavy music most? Synths/programming? Vocal styles- more higher screechy style BM, more mid rangey hardcore roaring, or guttural death growls?
Love bandcamp too by the way. It's such an awesome way for bands to get exposure, and allows people to pay what they like a lot of the time. I'm a big believer in supporting bands financially that I like. If I don't, they may not be around for too much longer. I just wish the searching was easier. I have yet to be able to actually discover something new on bandcamp. I usually hear of it elsewhere and find it there.
Two of my current favorites:
https://circuitofsuns2.bandcamp.com/alb ... it-of-sunshttps://frontierer.bandcamp.com/album/o ... athematicsCircuit of Suns debut album is the best thing I've probably heard in over a decade. Def up there for sure. Very versatile band. His vocal style is like none other in heavy music today. And only one vocalist I've ever heard sounded like him with the way he flows. And I've seen him do it flawlessly live.
Frontierer is one of the most vicious intense things I've heard. No space in there, no breaks really, just morphing aural punishment. It's so relentless it's amazing. The more listens you give it, the more you start to discern the details within the writhing wall of noise.
