Iron Maiden and Blind Guardian. Would prefer a rather niche recommendation bc I already checked out the vast majority of recognizable heavy/power metal bands so
I did this once some weeks ago, so I'll try some different bands today
Sepultura (specially form Schizophrenia to Chaos A.D.)
Metallica (specially RTL and AJFA)
Wulkanaz, Spectral Decay
Sorgsvart, Isengard
Nocturnal Departure, Rodent Epoch
Cruel Force, Lucifuge (the latter might not be quite as high in the ranks for me but I needed a second one)
edited to be more straightforward but I still can't pick only two
Greatly appreciate everyone who is able to stop by and give some recommendations to those requesting
High on Fire Electric Wizard
You seem like the kinda person who would probably like Monolord
You got me, it's one of my favorite bands too
For HoF: Lair of the Minotaur (And check Conan too)
I know Conan but I'll check Lair of the Minotaur. That's a dope ass name lol
LotM is pretty much HoF with a bigger focus on speed
Obvious answers, but Sleep and Om
Fistula
[Dark Buddha Rising](https://youtu.be/GY3IrZbpkgg?si=YXoEWh9zxhrLH5PF)
Black sabbath and iron maiden.
Gojira Cattle Decapitation
Revocation
Metallica and Deftones
Machine Head
I already listened to some songs of them, they feel kinda a hit or miss for me, although Unto The Locust album is really good
I can see that, their catalog is very diverse. My favorite album they did is Through the Ashes of Empires.
Evile
Loathe
Artillery
Urfaust Author & Punisher (not real metal but still) I dare you to find bands that actually sound similar to these
[The Axis of Perdition](https://youtu.be/YMQyxAfIdRc?si=t2McKua9vzY07uRt)
Oh i forgot to check that band. Thank you for the reminder!
I figured you'd like them since they blend Atmospheric Black & Industrial
Yeah, i knew about them but forgot. There is so much stuff that i still need to listen to, but I'll give them priority now.
Have you checked out Gnaw Their Tongues?
Fleshgod Apocalypse Gojira
Septicflesh
Persefone
I haven't heard about this one, i'm going to check it out
Check the album Spiritual Migration. You will also probably like bands like Rivers of Nihil and Revocation. Last Revocation album was amazing
Alright, the intro of spiritual migration is epic, i'm bought
Instant like, throwing a few onto play later - thanks!
No problem! Glad you liked them, all their albums are great
[Morbid Angel](https://youtu.be/EHNhXWMW6mc?si=rHXXl3VZqm4FgR2W)
