Good New Metal

[Code]

Has anyone heard of/got hold of any really original, current metal recently?

I've recently got into Clutch and they're amazing for the lighter side of metal, but I want something like Slayer/Metallica thrash kind of thing. I just can't find any good metal bands that have been labelled 'the new Metallica' by one music magazine or another, and thats a helluva lot of bands, trust me.

And I don't want anyone saying Slipknot, Trivium, Bullet, or any of those bands that really do suck.

And no Dragonforce. THEY ARE NOT THRASH.

Not quite new[well rather old] but you could try Anthrax? You might like Tool aswell.

[Kyle.tk]

Dragonforce are a power band.

[Code]

I don't really like Tool, and I already have some Anthrax. Thanks anyway Craig.

Megadeth? I don't know my genres so sorry if their something completely different.

[Code]

Already got Megadeth as well, and Slayer, and all those others. ahhhhh!

[Craig]

Try some Machine Head, excellent band.

How could you mistake DragonForce for thrash?

[chilloutrich]

Killswitch Engage, Still Remains, Chimaira.

Enjoy.

Good point, rather un-thrash like;)

Killswitch Engage, Still Remains, Chimaira.

Enjoy.

Although these aren't new bands as such, although SR is fairly new to the music industry nice choice;) Especially Killswitch.

Get "I Fell Asleep On My Arm" by The Aquabats. It's the most hard-rockin, headbangin song you'll ever hear.

[chilloutrich]

Just listen to stone sour or disturbed :P:P

Sorry I didnt hear my brother that well xD Yer there a thrash metal band I think Dunni heard there good tho

Thanks for all the reccomendations, but I don't really like 'screamed' vocals, Lamb of God are about as heavy as I go, so Killswitch are bit of a no-no, and Disturbed are a bit nu-metally for me. Gah. I'll check out Machine Head though. Bands like Lamb of God and Chimaira and Killswitch all sound the same to me.

PS no-one's said Sepultura or Pantera yet, shame on you!
