All great artists. No, White Stripes wouldn’t qualify as a metal band I think.

Will take a listen to the ones I haven’t in that list, only a small handful. Lol

Machine Head (one of my favorites lately)
Soilwork (swedish melodic death metal band)
Soulfly (brasilian trash metal band)
Sepultura (brasilian trash metal band)
Ektomorf (hungarian tribal trash metal, sounds a bit like Sepultura)
Volbeat (Elvis sort of singing combined with metal)
Coal Chamber
DevilDriver (same singer like Coal Chamber)
Clawfinger (a bit like Rammstein but with english lyrics)

Good taste - I’ve heard most of them. Coal Chamber, Soulfly, DevilDriver, Soilwork, and Sepultura have been a favourite of mine for heavy gym days.

Nice, nice! Love instrumentals too, M.Gordon is among my favourites.

Have you heard Living Sacrifice?

Sad Mans Tongue and River Queen are super awesome by Volbeat.

There are way too many good bands to list them somewhere.

If you are into instrumental bands “Russian Circles” is the one you should be looking for it’s INSANE how awesome that band is.

You can compare it with Tool but purely instrumental, they create music on another level. It sounds so freaking perfect that you can call it INDUSTRIAL but it’s not like actual industrial music. It can be compared to techno music but with actual instruments, it’s very unique believe me.

It’s like how AI imagines music or something. It sounds so freaking perfect just everything about it. I can’t can’t explain it.

It is creepy how good Russian Circles is, if you listen to it. It’s an american band btw. I would call it Highend Metal without any vocals.

If you listen to Alter Bridge you should also listen to Creed, because that is where the band members come from.

Ehh, I stopped listening to Creed a long time ago. I mean I was listening to them well over 2 decades ago I don’t know how they are today. But I got fed up with it, their music kinda depressed me and all.
