Dapper Bandit Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 The only name that comes to mind would be Oblivionized. If you're not dead set on UK/up-and-coming I would recommend Discordance Axis and Gridlink most highly. Proper eargasm bands.

tedmanzie Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) Friend of mine is part of this band Entermienum. Album came out last year and a new one is on the way. Their bandcamp tags are [i]alternative industrial metal goth hardcore industrial noise[/i] So if that sounds up your street then click this! > [url="https://entermienum.bandcamp.com/album/entermienum"]https://entermienum....bum/entermienum[/url] Edited March 18, 2015 by tedmanzie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merton Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I'd like to add Furyon to the list but I can't. Their first album is cracking but their second is turgid MOR bollocks (IMHO ) The first album is full of swagger, gear changes mid song, awesome playing and arranging. The second just doesn't have the same balls and feels formulaic by comparison. Two new guitarists you see, makes all the difference. So check out Gravitas by Furyon but avoid the other one (forgotten its name already it's that good haha) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheddatom Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 The Hell are very amusing, and very heavy. Ace live Colibra from Manchester are pretty cool Hacktivist are ace, but might not be heavy enough? Zoax are pretty groovy I'll be checking out some of the recommendations in here, thanks!

megallica Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 If youre a fan of 80s thrash like me Gama bomb are worth checking out. not uk metal but municipal waste have a good thrashy sound also. Both of these bands have been around for a few years and are quite well established now More established bands but the most recent albums from death angel, testament, overkill, exodus, anthrax and kreator I really enjoyed also flotsam and jetsam, trouble, voivod and down have fairly new albums that I really enjoyed recently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silky13 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I went to a cracking festival last year (Les Fest in Lanarkshire, Scotland) and saw a load of UK based metal acts... I really enjoyed: Savage Messiah (wouldn't call these guys new though) Mask of Judas Disposable Martyr de mona Fahran Another band recently seen that were good were The Sun Explodes (Carlisle based) My mates band is pretty heavy and seems to be getting some decent success around Scotland with Bleed from within tour support and that their name is Excellent Cadaver. Check them out too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doomed Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Both my bands make a bit of a racket if you want to follow the link in my signature, Doomchild is a harsher heavier vocal style, Beneath the Divine is a more traditional vocal style, still heavy though, nothing too technical, tune low, play slow... and LOUD.

hairychris Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 [quote name='Graham' timestamp='1426631008' post='2720225'] You might like Anaal Nathrakh who are one of my favourite bands, apocalyptic black metal/grind. The new Behemoth record - The Satanist - is a belter I'd give that a spin, some good bass playing on there too. If you're into doom, Electric Wizard and Conan are spectacular. [/quote] Anaal Nathrakh are monsters. Love them. Only slight downside is that their live sound has suffered a bit since making the switch to Orange Dark Terror guitar amps. If you're into complete mayhem I'd also recommend Dragged Into Sunlight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0Rf8N_kPCs [quote name='KingBollock' timestamp='1426626180' post='2720129'] On the Doomy side there's Serpent Venom. Their bass player is a proper lovely bloke. [url="http://serpentvenom.bandcamp.com/album/of-things-seen-unseen"]http://serpentvenom....ngs-seen-unseen[/url] Then, for something a bit harsher, there's Piss Viper. My wife works with the drummer and went to their first ever gig a couple of weeks ago. [url="http://pissviper.bandcamp.com/releases"]http://pissviper.bandcamp.com/releases[/url] And the wonderfully noisy Oaf. The bass player is Dom Lawson, the music journalist, and another top bloke. [url="http://oafmusic.bandcamp.com"]http://oafmusic.bandcamp.com[/url] I'll mention Beholder, too, the band that Piss Viper were supporting. They're from my old town and I played with their old guitarist, who now produces their albums instead, in my first ever proper band. [url="https://beholderuk.wordpress.com"]https://beholderuk.wordpress.com[/url] [/quote] The UK doom scene is absolutely insane right now. Soooo many good bands. As for Serpent Venom... Yeah, all are good blokes. Nick has just ordered a Barefaced Vintage 6x10 (for those gear geeks amongst us) and is a silly bugger of the highest order.

Adrenochrome Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm not really up on modern UK metal but I quite like Sempeternal by Bring Me The Horizon. I like industrial and electronic stuff as well which might explain why I enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sykilz Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 What I really really want is a great, original, powerful metal band....BUT with a singer who actually sings....not a grunt/screamer. Don't have to be all operatic, cos that gets on my nerves too, but Hetfield style, even some Anselmo stuff is great, but enough with the wierd noises!!!!

Truckstop Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Thanks for all the suggestions, gents.

Yeah, there's a lot of Doom out there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
