I don't normally like this sort of music, but I love this band:

Released for a couple months now, but has only just started to get a lot of airplay on the radio here:

"But I saw you [Snake]…faced by Anomander [Mandy] himself. How did…"
"I escape? Well, I dazzled him with fancy words, edging ever closer, then used my ninja skills to strike like a cobra, knocking the sword [Spamnipur] away and drop-kicking him over the side before tumbling backwards, slaying another Piss'd Andii on the way."
Silence. Lots of silence. "Fine!" He shrugged and grinned, "Someone hit him in the face with a coin, and he cursed just long enough for me to get away." ~ Excerpt from Gardens of the Tea Spoon

One vocalist switching near seamlessly between growl and clean.
Melodic death at it's heaviest and best.

The new (and final) album by THE STREETS is flat out fucking glorious. Mike Skinner is the goddamned man.

GF turned me onto this really cool local band today. I'm definitely going to go see them when they next play, this is a very well put together song.

I need a new album. I haven't bought one for ages and I have a bit of spare Amazon voucher money. Trouble is, I haven't really got anything exciting on the radar, and I'm still not over how achingly awesome ABIII was... So if anyone whose music taste I vaguely trust (MTS, DW, Anomander to name but a few...) can recommend a good one that I don't have I will happily test it out. I'm looking for something quite metal and hopefully progressive and musically excellent... Though not necessarily. I love that Empyreal track MTS put on here... I'm also into anything that is just well written & has a good ambience about it. So. Any thoughts? All suggestions will be vetted with YouTube/Spotify before purchase.

Hey there Tiste, metal really ain't my thing, but you could check out this page for a few suggestions
http://www.npr.org/2...and-outer-sound
It's one of the guest presenters on NPR's alternative music programme, ALL SONGS CONSIDERED, who does an end of year list covering metal which otherwise tends to get ignored on the show. On the top of the page there is a link to download the entire podcast which will give you a snippet of each artist as well as a brief discussion of why it was chosen.

There is also a a pop up music player which will allow you to hear each selected track in it's entirety. On the page linked above you can also find a link to his previous years selections as well.

From this years list, as an example I quite liked this song by AGALLOCH. I may have to check them out myself.

Meh. I have a few things by Agalloch not too impressed. But thanks for the link, sufficiently useful to be rep worthy.

Progressive metal? I've probably got a few recommendations you haven't heard of.

If you like Dream Theater (and let's face it, who doesn't?), Portnoy, Petrucci and Rudess have an instrumental side project called 'Liquid Tension Experiment' which is just brilliant.

Then there's Atomic Opera, who I quite enjoy. Their first album, For Madmen Only, is very good. Don't get put off by the views, all the rest of the videos for this song are radio edits which leave out the heavier bits:

EDIT - only two videos per post? Bullshit.

Cont.:
Galactic Cowboys are a pretty good melodic metal band. This is my favourite song by them (a ballad from the album Machine Fist):

You've probably heard of these guys, they're pretty awesome:

Bleh, triple post.

Finally, there's Crimson Glory, who are awesome if you can get past the 80s look.

From the album Transcendence:

I better stop there.

I'd also recommend anything by Iron Saviour, Avantasia, Dream Evil (particularly The Book of Heavy Metal), Demons & Wizards (side project of Blind Guardian and Iced Earth - their eponymous album is brilliant) and UDO.

ETA - how could I forget Psychotic Waltz? Check out the song 'Faded' for a pretty good estimate of their sound.

As for me, I'm listening to this at the moment:

To post an MTS combo-breaker, something bittersweet to start the day with:
Nouvelle Vague's version of Mano Negra's Mala Vida:

There's also a live version they did for shit and giggles on the Paris airport featuring three phones and a shitty camera:
