returntothepit >> discuss >> Tell me what METAL to buy for THE LIBRARY by thuringwethil on Aug 26,2008 4:46pm

post by thuringwethil at Aug 26,2008 4:46pm

someone on staff here told me that a High on Fire CD I bought for the collection has circulated on interlibrary loan a whole bunch of times.

Someone out there obviously sees my library as being VERY METAL.

we deffy need more, it looks like. Tell me what to get. I'm think of starting with the 'A's

Atheist is the best band metioned so far. Just don't buy Elements.

post by Martins

at Aug 26,2008 5:49pm

Buy Elements.

post by thuringwethil at Aug 26,2008 5:55pm

hahaha

but what will the KIDS like???

no, let me rephrase that. They'll inevitably be curious about deeper, more extreme metal.
What would you suggest to wean them off of Mastodon and Pantera?

I saw some kid walk in with an Immortal shirt the other day.

post by hyper_sludge at Aug 26,2008 5:59pm

Anthrax. The band and the dust.

post by Martins

at Aug 26,2008 6:01pm

I go to the library for classical and baroque cd's.

That shit is more metal than you.

yeah, really dude

METAL circulates A TON. Metallica, Slayer, Pantera (unfortunately), all the "classics."

our Amon Amarth DVD won't stay on the shelf.

It makes me feel gratified.

post by thuringwethil at Aug 26,2008 6:11pm

also keep in mind a lot of these go out on Interlibrary Loan, rather than the town itself every time

some dude kept coming in who was wicked into Opeth

No. They're awful chug-core.

For people who want to get into certain aspects of metal, I'd go with the following:

Amorphis
Arcturus
Agalloch
Anathema
Arch Enemy (First three)

Yea. Maybe Averse Sefira for the kvlts.

ABSU

A very appropriate band to come across at the library. They can give you an educational history lesson on ancient Celtic paganism and Thelemic occultism. Who says metal is for retards?

hehe. being illiterate sucks. And i second the motion for a broad base of Frank Zappa records, its not metal, but it was a good idea if its not there already. Talk about music that influenced everything.

post by thuringwethil at Aug 27,2008 8:40am

Oh we have tons of Zappa and Beefheart but I agree there can always be more

I second the ABSU reco wholeheartedly also

They make good music.

Sandro sounds like he was a worthless stunted growth anyway. It's like worrying about Varg killing Euronymous.

post by bonemetonydanza at Sep 2,2008 8:34pm

arch enemy
amorphis
animosity

post by Josh_Martin at Oct 9,2008 10:59am

I'll give you an AC cd for the library. That would be funny.

Just get the basics. Venom, Slayer, Voivod, Bathory, Repulsion, Celtic Frost, Sodom, Kreator, Motorhead, and of course, Carnivore.

post by thuringwethil at Oct 9,2008 11:01am

yeah we should get the AC acoustic songs one!
