Nyogthaeblisz/Svartidaudi/One Tail, One Head off the top of my head. Of these, fortunately and surprisingly I am going to be seeing NYOG in about a week.
Joel on
I like Svartidaudi. They're really good from what I've heard.
Joel on
I'm gonna have to check out OTOH one of these days.
headbangingmadness on
My top priority band is probably Manilla Road. I'd kill to hear flaming metal systems live.
Joel on
I'm not a big fan of 'em, but I respect their legendary status.
joecubbie on
+1!
ProtectorOfMegadeth on
Megadeth, Unleashed, and Cannibal Corpse
Joel on
If Unleashed ever came to the Bay Area, I'd probably go see them.
joecubbie on
Cannibal Corpse is brutal live. Corpsegrinder may very well be the greatest death metal frontman ever (frontman, not singer).
Joel on
I don't like CC. I think as far as George Fisher goes, Monstrosity's Imperial Doom is the best.
joecubbie on
CC is ok in doses. Definitely not my fave death metal group. However, they're absolutely killer live.
ProtectorOfMegadeth on
I prefer Chris Barnes over Corpsegrinder when it comes to CC, but I love Imperial Doom and Vile.
Sickening Gore on
Unleashed was a lil disappointing when I saw them.. no old stuff.
For me my decade dreams of seeing Sodom is coming true in a few weeks, but other than that I still MUST see Benediction, Nocturnal Breed, and I would kill to see Asphyx again, they fucking blow you away
Joel on
I'd love to see Absu and Sodom live.
Yoschi29 on
Totally agree you! I love Sodom so much but they are live sometimes amazing and sometimes not soooo good compared to e.g. Kreator. Nevertheless I'm excited to see them this year again. :)
Sickening Gore on
living in Germany and seeing Sodom must be something you do every other Tuesday haha,but I see what you mean there are bands here that come every other month it seems and they get old quick. Im excited finally getting to see them though! Kreator and Tankard were both incredible when I saw them
joecubbie on
Faith No More, King Diamond, and Motorhead
Joel on
I might buy a ticket to the Mayhem festival just to see the King live.
joecubbie on
It'd be worth it.
Sodom, Motorhead, AC/DC.
They're not my favourites, but these guys are getting old as hell. I might miss my chance.
Joel on
Yeah, especially Motorhead.
oldmate on
S.O.D.
but like that will ever happen again :(
Kathulex on
I would like to see Tryptikon, Saxon, Atheist, Bolt Thrower and Macabre.
Sadly, the bands I would like to see live the most split up and even if they were active they would still be in "local underground show" category. Those being Graf Spee, Dub Buk, Hate Forest, Sextrash, Sadistik Exekution and many others.
Taikon on
Would've loved to have attended any gigs from the Impaled Nazarene / Sadistik Exekution / Absu '95 tour..
Hate Forest live must've been out of this world.
Joel on
I'd love to see Bolt Thrower the next time they come to the Bay Area and I'll be seeing Saxon live in San Jose on the 29th of this month. I'm glad Saxon are coming back to this part of the world.
Cipher Drone on
Oh wow, my 'must see' list is huge:
Agent Steel
Atlantean Kodex
Razor
Metal Church
Paradox
Riot
Sadus
Skullfist
W.A.S.P
Wardruna
Sacrifice (Canadian one)
OK, it's apparently not that big. it turns out I've seen more acts live than I thought I had....
Joel on
I'm glad Riot are coming to San Francisco next month.
Lyx on
Sleep
Antonio on
Queensryche's Todd La Torre fronted version.
joecubbie on
Best move Queensryche ever made. Saw them last summer and going to see them this fall opening for Scorpions.
Antonio on
Wow, Scorps & Queens on the same bill, I bet it will be a great gig; I'm going to see Queensryche next summer in Pistoia/Tuscany/Italy on 19 of July ( supporting Dream Theatre ), can't wait to see them live, can't wait to listen to their new album, I really love first album with La Torre, it seemed back on their roots.....Just my opinion, but their last works with Tate were a little bit disappointing....
joecubbie on
The last QR record was their best since Empire. As I said, giving Tate the pink slip was the best move they made. As for Scorpions, I've been wanting to see them since I was 10 when they did their "farewell tour" haha.
Antonio on
LOL, about " Farewell Tour " let me tell you that the first gig I attended from a world tour named in this way was in 1992 ( "No More Tears" era ), it was an Ozzy's gig in Milan/Italy and that world tour was named in Europe leg....." The Retirement Tour " ( probably named " No More Tours " in Usa )....who knows??!!?
slb1995 on
Hmm, probably Black Sabbath, The Cure, Swans, Rush, and Bolt Thrower.
Candlemass as well but I will most likely see them this summer.
Joel on
I want to see Sabbath live before they retire outright.
joecubbie on
I'm not gonna lie, when I saw Sabbath, I had low expectations for Ozzy, but he blew me away. Ozzy sounds better now than he did 25 years ago. Plus, Tony and Geezer are still killing it as well.
Joel on
Well, that sounds extremely encouraging!
joecubbie on
Absolutely! Hell, even if Ozzy did sound like shit, I'd still go because it's Black Sabbath and to see all them on stage just once is historic. Plus, who knows how much longer they'll be around considering Tony's health.
joecubbie on
Rush is a must see. One of the greatest live acts ever.
nuclearthrasher666 on
I NEED to see Bolt Thrower live once . Classic bands like Slayer, Exodus,Sodom,Testement,Carcass, Venom etc are always a top priority. It would be fucking awesome if I could see acts like Dark Angel, Sadus,Nuclear Assault, Autopsy, Immolatio. The list of underground bands that I want to see live is endless: Vektor, Nekromanteion, Power trip, Diocletian, Ravencult, Vassafor, Bolzer, Grave Miasma, Antimob...
Joel on
Exodus and Testament were outstanding at the Regency up in San Francisco a month ago and I hope Bolzer, Autopsy and Immolation deliver at California Death Fest in October. Grave Miasma is pretty good but I'd love to see Cruciamentum live if possible.
nuclearthrasher666 on
I was lucky enough to see Cruciamentum and Grave Miasma live (alongside with Dead Congregation and Pslam). Cruciamentum were really fucking great live. but Grave miasma are one of the best live acts I have ever seen. Bolzer, Autopsy and Immolation in the same live ??? That is fucking great !
Joel on
Hell yeah man. I can't wait for CDF. I don't know if you like Disma at all, but they're gonna be there too. That ought to be great. From what I know, Cruciamentum and Grave Miasma share a member or two. I'd love to bang my head to songs like Deathless Ascension and Through Gates of Morpheus Realms in a live setting.
whiteravenmetal on
Hell, Pentagram and Angel Witch.
Joel on
You read my mind! Angel Witch is another band on my list.
DraconianStark666 on
Hell and Carach Angren absolutely
Demolition_hell... on
Venom, King Diamond, Black Sabbath, Destruction and Bolt Thrower (But Venom and Destruction I would see them this summer :D)
Joel on
Destruction...there's another band I hope to see live.
DethronedEmperor23 on
Venom
Bolt Thrower
Rotten Sound (again)
Cryptopsy (in about two weeks, fucking stoked)
Demilich (in about 3 weeks!)
Wolfbrigade
Rotten Sound (again)
MOD
Gorilla Biscuits
Lil Ugly Mane
Fredo Santana
Joel on
Are Bolt Thrower and Demilich touring throughout the U. S. right now?
DethronedEmperor23 on
Demilich are playing MDF.
Joel on
Oh, well isn't that just fantastic for you kid! If they were playing at California Death Fest in October, then I would seriously lose my shit.
Nater90 on
Bolt Thrower
My Dying Bride
Paradise Lost
Emperor
Cradle of Filth
Slayer
John 5
Blind Guardian (Seeing them in June so pumped)

the beast on
Blue Öyster Cult
Pagan Altar
Autopsy
vikingdantheman on
Darkthrone ;)
Joel on
Good luck with that one!
Nater90 on
Would be cool if they toured doing meet and greet sort of stuff and giving talks on how they've done it differently.
Joel on
What do you mean by "done it differently"? Are you talking about Fenriz and NC's approach to Metal?
Nater90 on
Yeah, How they've made albums because they enjoy it and don't tour for it. They've been offered quite a lot of money to put on shows / do tours and they simply decline, I'd like to know why because I'm in the same boat, I want to make albums but not tour, I just want to do it for the enjoyment of making music and expressing my thoughts and feelings. I've always looked up to smaller bands / soloists producing epic as fuck stuff compared to 4-5 piece bands.
Joel on
I think Darkthrone have modeled themselves after the kind of artist Quorthon was. Extremely influential and well known, but a bit on the introverted side. High profile and low profile at the same time.
Nater90 on
No doubt Quorthorn was a major influence on them, I idolize him myself, But sadly being dead I cannot ask him, So many amazing artists around I'd love to chat with.
ProtectorOfMegadeth on
I only liked Soulside Journey from DT
Joel on
Some really good songs on that album.
Nater90 on
Great album.
avder sede lush on
Susperia!
DrGebimmel on
Anthrax, Megadeth, Dying Fetus (next month!), Stratovarius and Hypocrisy.
ProtectorOfMegadeth on
Oh, and Protector
Nuclear Bear on
Brocas Helm and King Diamond above all
Toxicality on
Megadeth, Black Sabbath, King Diamond, Midnight, Sleep, Electric Wizard, Venom, DRI, Anthrax, Skull Fist, Enforcer, Cauldron, Stallion, Judas Priest, Metal Church, Rush, Nuclear Assault, Saint Vitus, Saxon, Toxik, and Exciter.
ProtectorOfMegadeth on
Maybe they'll do a Peace Sells 30th anniversary
gizter on
my priority is Ramlord. they should be comming to europe this summer. cant wait.
judascrust on
they are from my home state, I've seen them once, never heard of them before but they were very good, haven't picked anything up from them yet though. they're playing a few towns away from me this summer with Psycho, hopefully will be able to make it out & see them again and buy something this time!!
gizter on
Lucky. i kinda annoys me you got to see them without even knowing them.. but thats probably not much diffrence from that i've seen Bolt Thrower, Metal Church, Candlemass and some others that people listed here just purely because i got the chance. i mean love BT's first album, but thats it.
i got all Ramlord's releases since 2013. only miss the first 3, but they are only on tape, and i hate tape.. the demo has been on my mp3 player since pretty much it's release though.
Hárbarðr on
Venom, Moonsorrow and Atlantean Kodex, definitely.
stevenICB on
Fear Factory for sure. I've missed their last 3 tours in my country because of personal reasons, but I was really bummed about their Demanufacture anniversary tour
Lyx on
Heavy Load...ha
Im allowed to have dreams, right?
Joel on
Yeah, sure you are. Heavy Load...man there's an ancient cult name from way back!
