I don’t understand. Are people into that?

If it’s happening in Montréal, I think it should be Voïvod for being Québec’s most popular metal band.

1. Amon Amarth - With Oden On Our Side (melodeath)
2. Eternal Champion - Ravening Iron NSFW cover (epic heavy metal)
3. Smoulder - Violent Creed of Vengeance (epic heavy metal)
4. Ensiferum - Ensiferum (melodeath and folk metal, with power metal influences)
5. Amon Amarth - Twilight Of The Thunder God (melodeath)

Thanks for sharing. I listen to albums too, not individual songs.

“Acid”, this is acid rock? Or Acid the band? Though they’re not slow at all…

Awesome, thanks for sharing! The discovery of death metal among the metalheads of your school was particularily interesting to me. Also, the more social/conflicting part of being a metalhead then.

You mentionned “garage metal”. I had never heard of that. Would the second wave of black metal count as garage metal, considering how raw and low-budget it was? Perhaps that’s just the tip of the iceberg we younger metalheads know about.

I didn’t because I didn’t even know who were the oldest people here.

So I’m not the only person to believe that symphonic metal is a subgenre of power metal?

To me, it really seems to belong to it, but at the same time, I’m not well versed in technical knowledge about music, so I’m not too confident.

Wow, thanks!

I’m listening to the Stormkeep EP and it’s excellent! I got to say that the band logo and album artwork are amazing!

I didn’t mention Summoning and Emyn Muil, because I feared it would throw the recommendations on the path of Epic Atmospheric Black Metal. I like them, and they do combine black metal and dungeon synth, but I feel like they’re somewhat different. I can’t explain why.

Thanks for all the recommendations, I’ll try them all.

I sometimes gave them a try. I don’t remember the dungeon synth. I’ll give them a try again.

Thanks to you, I just found out that in the web version of Bandcamp, it’s possible to combine genre tags in search. Will be trying this. Thanks! (Black metal + Dungeon synth)

Almost everything from them is excellent. And yes, this album is particularly good. I’ll see them live in Québec city in May 11, for the first time. I’m so excited.

I love this song so much.
