I remember listening to a friend's Darkcore CD on a 10-hour Grand Prix drive. The genre more-or-less sounds like machinery breaking down or a copmuter malfunction with audio playing.

Ecstatic Orb
This is still one of my favorite songs ever:
Judging by the reactions of those around me this apparently qualifies as less palatable, though really, people who hate the MMMBOP just lack a soul in my opinion
Now listening to Den Sorte Skole!
Edit: Update: I like Den Sorte Skole
I've learned to tolerate some mainstream, Ozzfest type metal. black label society dimmu borgir and so on.
Also I don't mind the beastie boys, which is pretty unpalatable.
Mostly I just want to listen to Lykke Li or gaming-friendly no-lyrics music.

Lykke Li is awesome
Beastie Boys are fope as duck.

Best music video I've seen in a while, very daft punk-y
There was something very familiar about this clip when I was watching it. I don't know what it was. The Scooby-doo-esque plot, the Crypt of the Necromancer style villian (along with beat head-bobbing). It was rattling my brain while getting engrossed by the videos story. Then after it had finished (and I was pleasantly surprised) I noticed one of their other videos, the Phoenix Wright style one (money) that I had seen two months ago.
I guess that is why the video felt familiar. I still don't really know. It was a great listen though anyway.
Also, main reason I am posting in this forum is that I have invites to a (private?) music torrent tracker. So if you are real into music and can help seed for the community then PM me and I'll throw you an invite.

3rd Movement <3 when I went to my last magnetic resonance imaging I realized that I LOVE the sounds of some machines. it makes me want to dance.
one of my favorite bands for nearly a decade now. time passes by, it's depressing.

Aw yeah! Lovely song
So I was looking to find more metal and thought you would be the perfect guy to ask. The only problem is that I am not a harsh vocals man. I like stuff you can sing along to. The Alkaloid album you mentioned is getting close to the stuff I listen to. I've been really into Amon Amarth as of late, which sound a little similar (I may have just lost all my street cred with you with that sentence).
I am also into the 'mainstream' metal bands like Iron Maiden, Metallica, In Flames and Mastodon (Leviathan was sweeet).
I guess power metal, heavy metal, melodic death metal are what I am into. Clean vox, sick riffs and a story to tell. That is what I am after out of my metal songs. Anything anyone can think to recommend me?
Also, this has apparently made its rounds on the internet ages ago, but I only just found out about them. Not really what I was after but hey, it has clean vox and sick riffs. This will probably become a guilty pleasure:

Nice! And probably not that well known!
I have to admit that I've watched Baby Metal youtube videos a nonzero amount of times
I've also seen Mastodon live a few times (and also thoroughly enjoy Leviathan). But I am surprised that Amon Amarth is your jam, if you don't like gruff vox!Primordial - To the Nameless Dead
Progressive black metal band with a haunting vocal style that transitions from singing to rasping mid-word at times. The songs midpaced epicness evoke a forlorned Amon Amarth for me
Mercenary - The Hours That Remain
Power/melodic heavy metal ventures into extreme metal songwriting
Devin Townsend - Ocean Machine
Devin Townsend, former Steve Vai vocalist, puts out a lot of progressive metal albums (and this is my favorite).
Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors
One-of-a-kind avantgarde black metal/industrial craziness. One later track features Ihsahn of the band Emperor (and has very harsh vocals).
Soen - Cognitive
Obviously takes cues from Tool/A Perfect Circle, but has a lot of variation in their songs.
Pain - Dancing with the Dead
Pop metal from Hypocrisy's Peter Tagtgren. This might scratch your baby metal itch. Cannot find a full album link of Rebirth, but also great: End of the Line / On and On
Therion - Sirius B / Lemura
Hard to believe this used to be a mostly standard death metal band. Double album that is closer to listening to an opera/symphony than a metal cd.
If you like the death metal approach of Amon Amarth and In Flames, also make sure to listen to some Dark Tranquillity if you haven't!
MC invoking the word "jam" forced me to go find a bunch of Space Jam mashups yet again, this is my favorite so far of today's finds:

What do the metalheads think about Brachiosaurus? I've never been sure whether it's
1) a real metal song with cool cartoons
2) a parody of metal with cool cartoons
either way I dig it and the cool cartoon

I can't remember if I've made a post about schranz techno but I know I made one about dubtechno and its pretty nice if you are particularly into the sound of girders creaking.
Maybe I aint never did make one?
Seems like a humorous, semi-educational song. Not my preferred subgenre, but it has decent classic heavy metal/sludge sound (kinda like Electric Wizard).
Anybody who likes sludge should check out Dopethrone, it's Electric Wizard's seminal album and I blasted it for like a week straight in hs
Me mates really like koze, but he is really well reviewed. It's nice to have another dance music person in here.
