Good Metal band for me

[Danger X]

I does not sound like slayer, because it is not Thrash metal. Plus, Venom is an English band(means it mostly is better at black metal). Venom sounds like they come from the sewer, but in a good way.

First of all : hi people !!! Wasturr, dude - wassup ?! If anyone of u r like me than we need to be called a metal nation. jk

@DisturbingSam : i have collection of those bands - Immortal, Death (Chuck Schuldiner, R.I.P.), SOAD, Disturbed, Sepultura. Wanna add to this collection some couple of albums from Pantera & also Machine Head (the first 2 albums). If this is your course too, than i glad that i helped u. Keep the good Head Banging, m8 !!!

Yeah, Venom are a great band. And one of Metallica's (Lars Ulrich's in particular) early main influences. They were very into NWOBHM.

I've recently listened to Blind Guardian, their early work (which I don't like that much) has a lot of speed/thrash metal elements. Nowadays it could be described as a mix of progressive/power metal.

For some reason early Iron Maiden comes to mind. But most important "Fear of the Dark" track, don't know which album is it in. Don't rule out Megadeth & Morgoth - the German metal band. In particular their "Odium" album, had it myself, "Drowning Sun" track is one of my favs.

try dimmu borgir. its black metal, but one of the smarter black metal bands. theyre not just "satan satan satan."

and if your into metallentless. try rammstein, there pretty good. very metallisuck influenced.

or perhaps 3 inches of blood.
and how do you not like slayer!?

and you should deffinitly like cannibal corpse. theyre the ultimate death metal band

or perhaps black dahlia murder. theyre a thrashier death metal

and have you ever seen the show metalokalypse?

[Captain Fist]

Dimmu Borgir? Bleh. They may not be "Satan Satan Satan" but they reinforce Black Metal's Dorky Ass Fashion. Corpse paint is fine, but what's with all the fucking spikes? It looks impractical.

[The Body Popper]

cause its just that. black metal thats just part of the black metal look.

ohhh, and I forgot kreator. AMAZING 80's thrash metal band. and unlike most bands you hear baout, their newer stuff is way better than their older stuff.

[Force]

Dimmu Borgir aren't Black Metal lol. Anyway, if you like Maiden and Metallica, here a some bands I suggest: Motorhead, Diamond Head, Saxon, Overkill, Testament, Kreator, Destruction, Nuclear Assault. I know tons of other bands, but that list will do.
