u know, ive been listenin to a whole bunch of random metal bands, and some of the best songs ive heard come from bands i NEVER hear... and they all seem to have EXCELLENT guitarists, true its the 80's and u HAD to have a monster guitarists... so what are some of yalls no name fav's?

Some of these are on the border between rock and metal.....

Bleak House
Clutch
Crowbar
Corrosion of Conformity
Earth
Electric Wizard
Monster Magnet
Pelican
Pentagram
Saint Vitus
Sunn O)))
Tristania
Warchitect

I also find it useful to scan the share folders of people who already have this type of music, just to see what else they might have. If I don't recognize it, I'll download it and check it out.

what does Sunn 0))) sound like?

Detune a guitar until it's so low you can barely make out key changes, run it through something like a Big Muff or some sort of synth-fuzz, then play chords that drone for four or five seconds, then play a sub-sonic riff at about 30bpm followed by more drones.

And that's the quot;leadquot; guitar. The quot;rhythmquot; guitar either matches the lead, or plays chords that drone, oscillate, or feedback for as long as 30 seconds in some places. Everything is drenched in delay and reverb.

There's also a bass and synth....they're being run through fuzz/dirt boxes, delay, and 'verb as well I believe.It's not something I can sit an listen to, but I will run it in the background when I'm doing other things.

I actually like monster magnet. Big Basic powerchords. Its easy to play, easy to get into. Not much thinking envolved actually, good for warm ups when your jamming along.

The parenetheses in their name must indicate the wrinkles that your face will have accumulated by the time you finish listening to their music.
