So, I went to en.metal-tracker which is a torrent site exclusively for metal, and I decided to just load everything there by seeders and scrolling through download anything I hadn't heard of that was popular, anything that had a cool name or cover, and some other stuff just for shits (initially I was looking for the Spinal Tap discography, but that only had one seed and was taking forever so I decided to get some other stuff in the meantime.)
Now, there's some stuff I've heard of in here, I'm not a *complete* pleb. I intentionally downloaded a few turds out of curiosity, but there's a lot of stuff in here I'd never heard of.
Anything particularly *good* from this pile though?
-Listened to the Gloryhammer cds, after seeing them mentioned here actually. They weren't awful, but nothing especially caught my attention.
-Cage had a couple songs I might listen to again, but overall felt kind of edgy meh.
-Huntress sounded like Dethklok with a female vocalist. Her vocals were mediocre though. I'm going to give it a second listen.
-Lindemann was exactly what I expected. I'd already heard some of the songs from it. The tunes are catchy enough, because I like Pain. Don't know that I like it as much as either artist, though.
