Right now I'm into, in no particular order, Dis-Lord, Marduk, Rammstein, Meshuggah, Slipknot (yep, I know it's teeny bopper metal), Children of Bodom, and Naglfar.

Love the Scandinavian stuff.



yeah, it's all about the scandanavian metal. there's something potent that arises when a lack of sun for half the year and a persistent system of pagan beliefs that lends itself to kickass metal.

at the moment i'm listening to heaps of opeth, the haunted (fave band at the moment), children of bodom, in flames, meshuggah, soilwork, at the gates, bloodbath, etc. the only american metal i listen to consistently is 80s thrash like slayer and metallica (kill 'em all being an incredibly underrated album).

and don't worry about slipknot, if it wasn't for their debut album back in 99 (and in particular the song purity) i never would have started listening to metal. for me, they were the gateway drug.
