im pretty sure slipknot and disturbed are among the top 5 bands today, and for good reason. you still have the seemingly immortal Metallica still making new albums and songs. however what sucks today is that most singers resort to scremo and most songs are just really fast and sloppy. stuff like this, the sword, metallica, most of slipknot and disturbed, and the older metal song that retain thier popularity, those are worth listening to.
@pumishumi most good metal bands have a perfect combination of screaming and singing! like scar symmetry, periphery, protest the hero, all that remains, between the buried and me, tesseract, sikth, fear factory and killswitch engage.
^^^ all my favourite bands. all have immense power in their vocals
@DeathMetalSperm dude . . . each band i listed are a different subgenre of metal, you clearly aren't very open in your outlook towards music, labelling these bands as "posers" is absurd, seeing is how a lot of them are not popular and do not care about the image in any way . . . oli sykes is a fucking poser. not these guys, they are just innocent dudes making a living out of producing great music, if you don't like it, no need to rip on them
@ZyggieFromJiU I've given those bands you listed a shot in the past, and all are fucking core bullshit bands, they're not what metal is about. GOOD metal is.. Accept, Slayer, Judas Priest, Kreator, Raven, Anvil, Megadeth, Metallica, Warlock, Anthrax, Pentagram, Skelator, Hellhammer/Celtic Frost, Wehrmacht, NunSlaughter, Coffins(jpn), Iron Maiden, Death Breath, Aura Noir, Exodus, Darkthrone, Carpathian Forest. I need not go on.
@DeathMetalSperm actually hardly any of them were core, a lot of them were just technical death metal, you know, like meshuggah, but it's just our different tastes of the same genre :) didn't mean to offend i was just expressing my opinion about bands that use a combination of screamed harsh vocals and elegant clean vocals
@ZyggieFromJiU actually atleast 3 out of the 8 you listed are in the metalcore field, 1 out of 8 is plan out annoying, and 2 out of 8 (i know for sure) could be called tech death. Only 2 remain that I have no memory of their sound, probably because they suck massive chode. Just because the drummer plays more "technical" beats, or off-timing, doesnt mean its a tech death band, nor is it a tech death if the guitars are inaudible and it just sounds technical.
@DeathMetalSperm between the buried and me are tech death, periphery are tech death, tesseract are tech death and sikth are tech death. and the reason i like those bands is because they play with MEDIUM GAIN. not high gain like most death metal, so because of that you can hear EXACTLY what they are playing all the time, and the reason i like the drumming for those bands is because it's based around groove beats and not blast beat or that stupid 4/4 rock beat like everything else these days
@ZyggieFromJiU what is a "groove beat" ? and which 4/4 beat in particular has been getting your goat? i'm not being a smart ass i'm actually wondering what you meant. i'm a musician of sorts, trying to get a band off the ground right now. i wana know what different people like and don't like.
@pumishumi If you think Slipknot and Disturbed are worth listening to you should listen to Opeth, Obscura and Ensiferum for example. They are all original and really metal, unlike Slipknot...
This is amazing, I love the sound. They aren't some shitty screamo band, they actually have an awesome melody & riff! The Sword just got added to my new favorite bands list, right along with White Wizzard. Fucking Epic song, this rules.
2006 first album of The Sword...put in about two years of preparation and maybe some playing before they were noticed by a record company....I'd say they started playing together about 2003..only assuming though...Thank God they're still young and full of passion about metal that way they'll give us much great music in the future...God bless them
@11twsister The song talks about the different stages in life through the life of a woman....first maiden then mother then crone...it is not about paganism...even if it was who cares? Everyone has their own beliefs

@306ness theres a good way to explain a rubbish 4/4 rock beat, and that's the intro to supersonic by oasis or the intro to song 2 by blur :P
and a groove beat would be more like 6:00 by dream theater :)
