I'm a big music lover (like a lot of other people), so now I'm looking for some new bands to listen to. If you can suggest me a good band, I'll add you to my whitelist, so you can participate in my (first) giveaway. I'm giving away Real Boxing™, I know it is not much, but as soon as I get some more money, I'll probably give away a bigger game (or more).

So I'm really into metal, so please don't suggest anything other then that. The bands I'm currently really enjoying are:

Iron Maiden (my favourite ever since I started listening to them)
Satan
Arch Enemy
Amon Amarth
Megadeth
Skid Row

And some others. So please suggest some bands (even some of the bigger names) and a song (or two) that I should check out from them. I will whitelist you for this giveaway if I think the band is (even if it is just a little) good. So if you suggest anything in the metal, you are almost certain to be whitelisted.

The giveaway will start today in 3 hours (August 16, 13:00 in the Netherlands) and end after two weeks (as I'm not sure how long it will take for a reasonable amount of people to participate), so on 30 August at 13:00. The giveaway is for any level.

And for the ones added to my whitelist, here is the giveaway.

Well, all those are pretty big, so try reaching for all their songs, you might find many other pearls. Sometimes a good song is worth an album (at least for me, it is lol)

Have you ever tried looking for words in a song? Metal-Archives advanced search helped me discover so many unknown artists that way... might help you whenever you get tired of the old songs again.

I have been a huge metal fan, but in time I lost my genre blockade and started to listening everything (yes, from heavy metal, through electro/house/trap to even pop) but I still love metal so much. SOAD was my first metal ever listened, have been also a fan of Scars On Broadway that Malakian made later. I recommend them both so much, especially songs like Hypnotize, Question, World Long Gone or They Say. As well I can recommend Serj Tankian's solo career. I'd be lying if I said I don't like AC/DC (but hey, who doesn't know them?), nor Iron Maiden as well. I think those would be the only recommendations since I don't remember many names I've been listening to some time ago :P

Not a big fan of SOAD, but Scars on Broadway sound good. Added you to the whitelist.

btw, I know someone that didn't know AC/DC before I met him, very sad...

That's a whole new level of heresy...
And thanks :)
