TIL I like a different kind of metal

[Stikk]

Strange compared to what I normally find myself listening to, but I have definitely opened a new door of music for myself today.

I was listening to a playlist that had some Hatebreed in it on youtube (Hatebreed is by far my favorite band), and had a song suggestion come up called "Sunday School" by a band called Cane Hill. Checked it out, found that I really enjoyed it. Saw it was on the record labels youtube channel so I decided I may as well check them out and see what other bands they had.

Discovered whatever genre this metal can be called, but seems to have a mix between melody vocals as well as the typical growl/scream/etc, and the riffs in many of the songs seemed to be really catch on in my head, as well as the rhythm (I'm a bassist). I found a few bands on there that I enjoyed plus a few I already knew of that I liked.

Definitely not for everybody, seeing as how I find it strange myself that I seem to like this genre of metal, but screw it, what rocks you is what rocks you lol.

Here are some of the songs I found I enjoyed that should be decent examples (I don't care about how cool/uncool the videos are or if they suck, I'm about the music):

"Exotype - Wide Awake"

"Cane Hill - Sunday School"

"The Plot In You - Premeditated" (Video NSFW)

"The Plot In You - Troll" (I thought this song was catchy as hell)
