I've mostly been listening to rock/alternative, but I'm starting to lose interest especially after getting a few Dream Theater albums. After listening to that, most rock seems simple, shallow, and formulaic. I've been searching on here for more metal, but I don't really like the constantly screaming/growling lyrics (but love everything else about it). Its hard to find anything between growling and ultra high-pitched singing in metal bands (occasional growling/screaming is fine, it just gets annoying all the time. IMO ITS LIKE TYPING WITH CAPSLOCK ON, YOU CAN'T TELL WHEN I'M EMPHASIZING ANYTHING UNLESS I SSSSSTTTTRREEETTCCCCHH THE WORD OUT LONGER. IF I YELL ALL THE TIME HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN I'M REALLY MAD? At least that's my first impression).
Any suggestions?
I've heard some Dream Theater, Kamelot, and some Megadeth, and liked them but I'm having a hard time finding more music like that (even kamelot and megadeth border on annoying lyrics at times).
I can't think of a good way to put it, but basically I want music from more talented bands, or music that takes skill to play so feel free to suggest other genres (like classic rock, or even more rock/alternative). I also listened to some Joe Satriani recently and liked that as well.
I'd even consider classical/soundtrack. I occasionally listen to soundtracks. (Lots of the most famous classical pieces I've heard to death and give me a headache to listen to, but I'd be willing to give it another try).
Thanks for helping!
