Out of all of those you really have to just break down and listen to NEVERMORE and GRAVE DIGGER.

umm......RAVEN?!?!?!?!

Neither have I KMorg

viking

Soilwork.

I have still never heard Dew Scented (It's just the name I think ... however, I've heard they're quite good).

I never heard Sodom until earlier this year ... and now I have all their studio albums!

Other bands I'm still yet to hear:

Coroner ( I know, ... this is bad.)
Crumbsucker
Raven
Municipal Waste
Warbringer
Holy Danger ... oops hang on, I think i might have heard a song once!
Evile
The Iron Maidens (the female tribute band).
Bonded in Blood
Behemoth
Charmed Leather
Obnoxious
Watchtower
.... more will come to mind later.

Warrior Soul here too. And most modern metalcore bands.

Ones I'm ashamed of:
Believer
Moshkateers

Other big names I've just never heard or wanted to:
Underoath
Demon Hunter
Zao

many many others....

This is proving harder for me than I thought.

Sure, it's easy for me to discount stuff like black & death metal or anything with "[blank]core" attached to their name. But if they are within the general realm of the type of music I like, I'll try to find some samples before I decide if it's for me or not. I'll even give most flowery power metal and newer glam a listen, just in case there's something that catches my ear.

There was a time (pre-internet) when I probably coulda had a laundry list of bands that I never heard, but nowadays, that window is getting smaller and smaller. If I haven't heard of a band, it's probably by choice.

Schbopo went down many notches in my book.

Really? Besides not having heard Warrior Soul myself, the rest of those bands have some excellent music, I would think with your musical knowledge, you'd be interested in some of their material. Unless you're joking about this of course.

Rainbow, Mountain

If find this almost unimaginable, if you live in the US. TV and/or Radio commercials for decades have made use of these. Even in movies, at times.

bal sagth (or Bob Sagget), mortician, and a whole list of black/death bands.

SLEEP, CAMEL, ... a lot of C and D list bands ....

Rainbow's 'Man on Silver Mountain' was used in Coors Light commercials, for Pete's sake. Mountain I could almost see. Other than 'Mississippi Queen', they didn't have too many radio hits to speak of. But how does one not know 'Mississippi Queen'? That opening riff and some of the greatest cowbell this side of 'Don't Fear the Reaper'?

Children Of Bodom
Cannibal Corpse
Dimmu Borgir

OK, maybe I HAVE heard them without knowing that it was them. Thanks for letting me know.

lol,Yeah, me too.

Maybe I'll get into more underground stuff some other time, but right now I'm happy just listening to more "mainstream" metal and wondering who the hell "Atlantean Kodex" are.

Cage

I thought of one.

Despite MetalRob's best efforts, I don't think I've heard any Altar Bridge. Although I gotta say, that Myles dude sounds really good on Slash's solo album.

We can always use more cowbell !


I have never heard the Moshketeers,Evile,Kreator (besides Coma of Souls),Viking,Watchtower and many many more. That's just off the top of my head after seeing some others listed here.

Pain Of Salvation

5 years later, I still haven't heard Cage.

I can scratch Kreator off this list as I've been able to get a few of their releases. And think they're really good.

Kings X
Sixx AM
Lynch Mob
