Seriously though, I am a bigtime metal fan and am always looking for new stuff. If history is any guide, there must be some good stuff coming out of Norway and Sweden right now. Let's hear about it.

I am not looking for the famous bands like Kovenant, Dimmu Borgir and Soilwork. Death metal and thrash are my favorite subgenres, along with what metal journalists called metalcore, which I interpret to mean metal riffs but also lots of time changes and more syncopation than straight blast beat death and grindcore.

Ideally I would like to hear about young, hungry bands making loud, aggressive metal that are not trying to sound like At The Gates and other famous Scandanavian acts. Anything like Heaven Shall Burn, Caliban, Goatwhore, Pig Destroyer, Darkest Hour, Usurper, Dew Scented would rule.

No Black metal please. Music with keyboards and falsetto singing does not qualify as metal in my book.
