I absolutely love how many elements this song blends together. Electronic chorus, metal-core verse, power ballad bridge, thrash metal, then just a brutal ending. Chef's kiss on this one.

What is your favorite metal song that you just can't share with your non-metal friends?

Yeah 🤘

My favorite music as of late is Sleep. Headphones recommended.
Recently I like me some classic Grand Magus.
Finally, my normal friends just can't appreciate Bears!

Sleep and (old) Grand Magus, heck yeah! What do you think of Electric Wizard, if I might ask? Dopethrone is the heaviest album of all time, in my unimportant opinion.

Doom metal, yeah I like it all

The pure heaviest album all time is, I think, Satan Worshipping Doom... Bongripper - Worship

It's a good one for sure! I'll put a link too in the hope of luring some more people in Electric Wizard - Dopethrone

Also, I forgot to mention Acoustic Wizard, the equally awesome EW cover band

Would you believe me if I told you I read your message while listening to that terrific album?

Also, great name for a cover band 😂

I'm glad to hear it!

That band dooms like few bands have ever doomed before. So good and so crushing live.

I just checked them out on Spotify and their discography is hilariously messed up

[–] rustyspoon 2 points 2 years ago

Yep this happens like once a month for a few days. I believe the same thing happens to a bunch of bands on Spotify with generic names.

Al Cisneros looking furrier every year

I just had to Google "is Al Cisneros a furry" because of you...

Dude if you haven’t already, check out Sleep’s other project OM. The first three albums are other worldly. Lots of meditative aspects to their music which I think works incredibly with the doom metal style droning guitars and slower tempo.

[–] anji@lemmy.anji.nl 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah I like OM, and High On Fire too. But Sleep is something special. Hope to see them live one day.

[–] schmonie@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

Just gave High on Fire a listen. Really awesome 🤘

Sleep is the shit. I was supposed to see them last year but they cancelled their show. Hopefully they go on tour again at some point
