Seriously check em out they're incredible.
All 3 releases are master pieces.
Nice find, I really like the melodies and vocals. Great band, thanks for introducing me to them!
pretty damn good song, kind of strange vocal style for this type of music but i still like it. almost like a black metal rasp mixed with melodic death highs.
Holy shit, they're American! A good American Black Metal band, or for that matter, Metal of any sub genre. Awesome.
My personal favorite band. These guys are amazing...
they arent black metal, but they are american and that is fucking sweet
You can't really put a genre to this band, but they are generally called Atmospheric Folk/Dark Metal.
The vocals seem Black Metal, that's where I got that from. According to Wikipedia, they are Folk/Dark/Black Metal, Doom Metal, Neofolk Metal, and Post-Rock. Way too many genres, and I have found Wikipedia a little unreliable with their genres in the past.
there are tons of great american metal bands...
there are tons of great american metal bands...
well i cant think of one great one since pantera, at least that i listen to
Like I said, you can't really put a genre to their name for they are always evolving to a different sound, but always keeping this dark atmospheric core sound that is Agalloch. I mean, If you look at The Mantle and Ashes Against the Grain, both are very different albums (IE The Mantle has more of a folkish vibe to it), but definitively Agalloch albums.
And yeah, there are tons of great American metal bands, you just need to look a bit more underground past the generic Death Metal bands.
I see, thanks for the explanation. Can you give me some examples of good American Metal bands please?
Wolves in the Throne Room.
Yes yes yes!
Sculptured, Morbid Angel, Overkill, Death (RIP), Obituary, Baroness, Isis, Crimson Moonlight, Cynic, Evoken...I could go on and on and on. And if Canadian bands count...there would just be so many.
cananda has a lot of great melodic death metal bands. I love the band Archons.
they sound good
Love Archons as well. Gonna see em some time (oh the joys of living near Montreal). I like to say Tech death and prog metal is what comes out the most of around where I live (Province of Quebec)...Neuraxis, Augury, Kataklysm, Archons, Quo Vadis, Gorguts, Martyr, Unexpect, Gorod, Voivod...
well prog and tech death are some of my favorite genres... gojira, meshuggah, archons, atheist, etc
Yeah dude, been digging Meshuggah a lot lately...love that freaking band. Eh, matter of fact, I'm wearing my shirt of them right now :D
