For this week's edition of #metaltransmittedbyrelays we are featuring Amorphis https://youtu.be/VkfbnFr8piM Amorphis is a Finnish heavy metal band known for their unique blend of melodic death metal, progressive rock, and folk elements, and for some reason, they seem to be relatively unknown in the US. https://youtu.be/QP5BxIwLuZ8 Though they use some harsh vocals, they focus mostly on clean lyrics and catchy music, a good gateway band to get someone into melodic death metal. https://youtu.be/tptu0kptwcE https://youtu.be/fmHmTwZ8TLI #metal #tunestr #heavymetal #music #grownostr Catch up on previous notes in this series. nostr:nevent1qqs944j6up2v4xywk9yjt807kdnncemyx5lmen2req3a5k20w39d2cspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsygrewagqg8gnv65q630pxryrruzk9d0hyenx9vr6em6sm42ph739x5psgqqqqqqsd8j0ma

This week on #metaltransmittedbyrelays we're going to hear some cheesy power metal. Power metal bands are known for each having their schtick. Usually it's some type of overt fantasy theme. In tonight's example, it's Norse Mythology. https://youtu.be/v5yYMjU8xDg Brothers of Metal is a Swedish band featuring male and female vocals, and a good dose of humor in their lyrics and music videos. https://youtu.be/FLQnrOZmZoc https://youtu.be/SlzLplEogrs https://youtu.be/E90K_BhbEtA #metal #tunestr #heavymetal #music #grownostr More metal awesomeness here nostr:nevent1qqsr9z65g43tv0xmnxmhztfe68x4ac3cn40u2m73ruce796fg7p2rtspz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsygrewagqg8gnv65q630pxryrruzk9d0hyenx9vr6em6sm42ph739x5psgqqqqqqsg8y07d

Brothers of Metal is definitely what my music collection needed added to it. There's a ton of good viking themed folk, death, and black metal I'm all but growing bored with after years of listening to the same thing, but you can never go wrong with the good old fashioned corniness of power metal. Being unable to laugh at yourself is a sign of weakness just like any other.

For this #metaltransmittedbyrelays note, I present Omnium Gatherum. https://youtu.be/ubmuUiozKyo Though melodic death metal originated in Sweden, it quickly spread to Finland, and these guys represent the Finnish metal scene very well. https://youtu.be/gowDWEr5SDY If you don't generally use the word "beautiful" to describe death metal, then you just haven't heard Omnium Gatherum yet. I discovered them through their New World Shadows album, which is an absolute masterpiece of melodeath. https://youtu.be/6Au_6Ud9LVk #metal #tunestr #heavymetal #music #grownostr Continue down the metal rabbit hole with these previous notes. nostr:nevent1qqswvd2l2vkxs0tclfs6df87w86z0je38gpwhhu8zlxtq70cf0e5jhspzdmhxue69uhhwmm59e6hg7r09ehkuef0qgs8ja6sqsw3xe4gp4z7zvxgx8c9v26lwfnxv2c84nh4ph25r0az2dgrqsqqqqqpy7vnpg
