You suck at violin
You're welcome
I’m saying this with all respect but thank you and I strive to do better 😁
In 6 months you’ll suck less, keep at it!
Yeah man, keep it up so you suck less everyday man
@@wyattxhim the fretboard exists for a reason.
Archery and the violin. What an absoulte unit of a man.
Oh stop with the flattery ! 😭
I usually discover new music by going to as many shows as possible, and browsing old record stores. I discovered BM by randomly picking up an album because I liked the cover art.
Always good.
I do that too.
Usually I use one of several things:
1.A random RYM list from a user I have similar tastes in.
2. UA-cam channels such as Heavy Metal of the Eastern Bloc, Death Fetish, or NWOTHM Full Albums.
3. Being bullied into listening an album on Discord
4. When I was on FB, there was a group that would post last.fm collages of what they listened to from the previous week. That immensely helped my jmetal education
i find new music by getting insanely high and waking up with new albums in my library
I just sell mine for more drudkhs
Personally I love discovering hidden gems, especially in record stores. I once found a raw black metal demo (Wolves Are Descending In Town by Voido Quontur) for a dollar in a record store that was connected to the label you mentioned, Tour de Garde, and aside from a metal archives page and a UA-cam channel with the songs there isnt much info about the band or demo itself. This other time I found an album called Unleashed by the band Edge Of Insanity (again for a dollar). I tried looking them up and couldn't find any info on the band at all. They have some early 2000s elements mixed with some Thrash and hardcore, and it one of my favorite hidden gems that I've found.
Also I'm planning on uploading that Unleashed album to my channel just so there some recognition or evidence for that bands existence.
Look up Dan Swano and you find everything you need to know about Edge of Insanity.
@@Ghoulstille I think you got Edge of Sanity and Edge of Insanity mixed up, two different bands
Update: Ive uploaded the full Edge of Insanity album, Unleashed, on my channel
I have a new song Broken In Love you may enjoy!
My main sources before internet were Thank You lists. Still checking them out.
Just try to name your band and boom, you found a new metal band.
"always let curiosity get the better of you"
*Pauses the video*
I mean he's right...
*Tries heroine*
You, Alpha-27, & Deep Cuts are legit my favorite channels on here and are my go-to’s. Will definitely check out Poetryonplastic. Much love🤘🏻
The intro was like a prep into getting body ready for the upcoming Aquilus.
Using metal archives is so helpful 🙏
Wow, thank you so much once again for your shoutout and support, it's really appreciated!
Insane to see Nyege Nyege here. Found those tapes through Duma. Insane stuff
I usually discover new music by following your channel and others
Checking out recorded music consistently and books about music from the library is also something I've been doing for most of my life.
The forums on the metal archive are great i asked for bands similar to morbid angel and i got some good results i keep going back to the fourm i made once in awhile to see if anyone else has put a recommendation
Sometimes I'll click random UA-cam accounts and see if they have any playlists a little werid but there are alot of public playlists people make and I found some good music doing that before
Hey what the hell nice bro! I've also just started playing the violin like a week ago. Keep up the grind.
Great video my dude and keep practicing on the Violin
You played that so well I don't think you need to practise anymore.
Going onto "esoteric" for a genre or year rather than "best" brings up way more hidden gems than you would think. It's how I discovered one of my new favourite metal albums, The Order Executors by Thunder Way, which is a heavy/power metal band from Albania. Also, if a record has interesting cover art, I click it without considering what genre, and I've discovered some brilliant gems that way.
Also, record stores can be amazing for discovering new stuff, especially those with super interesting and/or selections. Today, I bought an death/black metal EP that was in a record store called The Cursed Travails of the Demeter by a Dublin-based band called Vircolac, since the album cover looked interesting and kind of disturbing. Checked out a track on my phone while I was there, and loved it, and snagged it for £10 on vinyl. Also, a local record label called Dry Cough records, who almost always puts out killer sludge/doom/crust music, seems to supply their records to this store I frequent, which is amazing for me but not for my wallet lel
I try to keep up with everything from KEXP, Audiotree, to Stereogum and Mojo magazine, to Piero Scaruffi's album review index (found artists like Lida Husik and Solex through him), to all the albums talked about on some of my favorite UA-cam channels like Sea of Tranquility & The Music Hole. Another thing I do is check the CD section at my local record store, look for the disc I'm the least familiar with, and just buy it. Usually never disappointed with what I end up discovering.
You scared the shit out of me with that loud violin at the beginning lmao
Goniloc is also obviously a fantastic channel
Foreign Blogspots are just the best, they flood my feed with new and obscure artists, especially Black metal. I even went as far as to make one of these blogspots as my homepage on firefox, so every time open up my browser i see new entries.
I like discovering new music at concerts. You're basically getting a free demonstration of what they do because they happen to be on tour with the main headlining act you're coming out for. I've had some great impressions made in that moment where I'm saying "I gotta check their stuff out when I get home!" I made a whole countdown about this on my channel, but to give one example of a band I talk about in that video: when I went to see the Metal Alliance Tour in 2013, I was mainly going to see Anthrax headlining. They had Exodus, Municipal Waste, Shadows Fall (filling in for High on Fire on some select dates), and the one band I had not heard of on the bill, Holy Grail also on this tour. I ended up being quite impressed by Holy Grail's set and checked out the two albums they had out at the time when I got back to my dorm.
That was exactly how I discovered bands like Wode. Loved their set opening for Winterfylleth and Solstice (UK), talked to their guitarist for a bit, and picked up their s/t on CD and patch of theirs. Great band and great guys.
"Just do it" 14:49 hmmm..............
Great video! Fanzines, podcast/radioshows and even documentaries can be good for exploring new stuff. Maybe not as much if you are already familiar with the genre/subgenre/movement of the topic but for weirder unknown or unexplored stuff to you, absolutely.
I use pretty basic methods of finding new music, UA-cam, Bandcamp, Spotify, record labels I like( which are generally popular ones such as Nuclear Blast, Season of Mist, Metalblade Records, Sumerian records etc.) and Facebook groups. I'll have to check out the suggested reviewers later because hopefully they'll have some new music to check out
Me and my friend have this event wherein we each choose an album we love, and actually sync them up and listen to them together on the spot, in turns. One walks away having experienced new music, and one usually reports that that specific time they listened to it was the best one, however familiar with it they were beforehand. I highly recommend doing this with a friend if they're open enough and down to burn about an hour and a half.
tl;dr have music friends
Of course you somehow found a black violin. Badass. When I played when I was I kid I always wanted a back violin.
I probably visit Metal Archives at least daily.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention rate your music or even record stores. Personally I’ve found lots of hidden gems by going to a record store and picking 3 random CDs without even looking. And rate your music is very similar to the websites you mentioned. I’d like to hear your opinion on rate your music🤙🤙
shout out to black metal promotion yt chanel discovered a lot of gems on there and lso from wyatt himself, also got a sick ass cd from the metalhead box called Sons of Famine "as razors gnaw like wolves" reminds me of kingdom of ares
Deep Cuts is awesome
Check out the show “battleflutes and sideway skulls”, the DJ plays hella obscure black metal.
nice, u hold the violin just perfect, check out der blutharsch, cheers from germany .
The UA-cam channel Black Metal Promotion is really helpful as well.
Im repeating the intro on a loop
do a list of post rock albumes
I usually just watch your vinyl collection videos
I would like to learn the violin it’s my favorite instrument other then the guitar Q have you heard of the band sulphuric night I really enjoyed their forever cursed album if you haven’t give them a listen
Nice Shirt!!!
Zines and radio shows are still ways to find new stuff.
Rateyourmusic and playlists too
Your right sleeve is driving me insane.
Tips from friends;
Algorithm sugestions;
Online radios;
Reading magazines.
I'd argue, if you can't find new music then you're just not looking.
Similarly to the Metal Archives search option, you can also do the member search within discogs for specific bands, and bands they were involved with. It basically leads you down numerous rabbit holes. This same whittling approach will also work for labels.
You may find some interest in the French Shub Niggurath from the 80s.
Especially when it comes to bandmembers, that are in Metal-bands and in bands of other genres. Talking about rabbit holes...
Good tips, especially the one about following the labels. In my journey for great doom metal I've found that Russia has many and amazing doom metal labels, and they are legit too. Shipping is slow but that's expected with international post. Some do have good distribution though.
Seeing that you are continuing with the violin I have to ask if you've heard of Philip Glass. Worth checking out, any of his stuff. It's usually demanding but worth it.
Yeah, bands like Откровения Дождя (Revelations Of Rain) are the shit. Funeral Doom with extremely sad lead melodies AND ass-kicking parts with massive riffs (and even some blast-beat-parts).
Do you keep up with Anthano?
Try to keep your bow on the string at all times. It bounces too much. Also, when changing strings, be as quick and sharp as possible. If you can, try to touch the strings with the tip of your fingers.
I found out about a few bands recently when i was lookin at online merch (for some bands im a fan of) the store i was lookin at has exclusive merch that you can only get at their store (in the eu) so i deicided to look at some other bands they sell merch for, so i would find out if they sell cool designed merch from good bands that i dont know about.
That way i found Mantar a sludge/black metal band and Devil Master a punk/black metal band and now im wondering if you heard of them? Since you know a bunch about black metal.
Oh shit jesus Miyazaki. I thought I was my comment for a bit because I used to have that profile picture
Well I’m super late commenting on this and I’ll probably be the only one that sees it, but oh well.
This was a great video. I’m in a band releasing our third album in a few weeks. Each release I look into ways to reach a wider audience and have tried all sorts of things from promotional experts. This was a great video providing the prospective of a fan looking for new music. Literally every promotional expert says to do aggressive social media tactics, and I don’t think I’ve ever found a band from social media. This was great perspective!!
Try to play it without holding it with left hand. And try to play properly with bow. I still struggle with basic bowing sometimes after 2 years so yeah. You got this man.
Properly with the bow how exactly?
I only ask cause the grip I use is what I’ve seen online through free lesson videos
Do you ever check out Similar Artists on Last FM and dislike all or most of the bands listed?
When it comes to their similar artists with metal bands it’s really off for the most part haha.
Fantano sux, farvann is a funny BM channel, your channel helped introduce me to mamaleek great band
I made this for you guys: Discover the best songs you NEVER heard of! FOMO Music playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLdhGUXTQ47zJAvNjArsbeJf9CBUNAZNIb.html
I mostly use a Ouija board and sometimes I see what formations I can randomly find in a bowl of Alphabet Spaghetti (the latter process is successful 1% of the time)
Bandcamp rules
You would be a good violinist in a black metal band.
odium nostrum, 20 buck spin, season of mist
DSO Paracletus tie with Dead or Alive Rip It Up for best album of all time
tour de garde rocks no bullshit from em
I discovered alot of great bands from the metal archive. Also violin sounds pretty good keep practicing.
Never see you talking about Hardcore much. And I see that you like Hip-Hop too. If you like Korn you’ll probably like E. Town Concrete. Start with Baptism.
Honestly.... I've had great luck discovering new bands, just paying attention to recommendations from Spotify. It first started with Sabaton, then it started recommending Powerwolf. Then Turisas, Alestorm, Gloryhammer, Serenity, Rhapsody, Twilight Force, and now, i sit with a playlist of 1373 songs, that's growing at a frightening rate. And that's just Power Metal. I'm starting to branch out it other genres, like Melodic Death Metal, and Black Metal. And yes, i know. "bUT SpoTIFY dOesn't Pay THaT WEll. yOU aRE ACtuaLlY sUPPOrtINg ThE banDS You liKE." Guess again. I buy merch, and go to shows every opportunity I can seize. Even starting a vinyl/cd collection again.
Wait, there's more metal besides what BMP uploads? 🌝
Lots of great stuff can be found from there!
How many albums do you all go through each week? As cliche as this may seem I mean this with good intent, there is simply too much music out there, diluting quality at the cost of originality. I'm in a fortunate place to be able to get through 50 weekly on a good week however, I've become more inclined to like fewer and often fast-forward and skip completely, mainly current stuff let alone the entire history of the past. As I'm writing this I'm close to completing all of Veyl's Bandcamp and I have appreciated Maenad Veyl's Body Count at the cost of enjoying everything else there, besides recently finishing all of Skee Mask's stuff. Why I've brought them up is I'm starting to trip into techno, industrial and electronic holes more without having much understanding and thus have been more patient. I guess I've been more confident with knowing when something works but it's good to be proven wrong and retry. That's the ultimate quality with art, in being able to revisit it for good reason.
So if we’re saying the average album length you are listening to is 45 minutes, you’re spending nearly 46 hours a week on listening to music? That’s more than a full time job. Bro you must be some reviewer, a child, disabled and getting checks, or have a shit ton of money and not work to be doing that because that’s insane.
@@startledmilk6670 So that's not normal? I appreciate the response it was amusing, however. I take it as a compliment as your guesses I can't confirm nor deny, I mean this in a good way. yolo
@@NeroAngelo616 no that is not normal. That’s usually the hallmark of someone who doesn’t have anything else going on their life. I work 20 hours a week, I study for school for at least another 20-30 and then I work out about 10-15 hours a week. There is not enough time in the day for me to even come close to 50 albums a week if I want to get any sort of rest. There’s no way you didn’t know 50 albums a week is not normal and the amount of time you were spending listening if this is even true.
@@startledmilk6670 Ah, because listening to music means you become unable to do other productive things.
@@NeroAngelo616 you’re trying to make a blanket statement I never made. I listen to music a lot and never said listening to music makes you unproductive. Spending nearly 50 hours a week on any hobby is borderline counterproductive. Many people would agree with that. I literally just listed out my average week. I can still afford to listen to music but you’d be hard pressed to spending MORE THAN A FULL TIME JOB only listening to music, having a life and also being able to operate as a normal person. Unless you’re working from home and listen to music while working or you’re allowed to listen to music at work (assuming you work 40 hours a week) I’d still barely be able to believe that you’re listening to music that whole time, and wouldn’t believe you if you were listening to music 8 plus hours a day. How are you unable to provide the slightest hint of how you’re able to spend that much time listening to music?
By the way another great traditional heavy metal band is girlschool
wyatt plays violin
Don't forget to pre-order the new ARCHGOAT album out next month! 🤘
Well I left a comment earlier but I dunno it disappeared or something so i'll just jump on the violin bandwagon and say look up Ashley MacIssac on here if you wanna see some badass fiddle playing. And for the love of music play that thing faster!.
JB - HIFI has a good metal section. They are also open minded about new groups who are looking to make a name for themselves. 😈💀☠👹👺👨🎤👩🎤🧟♂️🧟♀️🧛♂️🧛♀️🤘
Any rateyourmusic users?
I'm just here to "lol" at the title of the video. If you're online and got this far and need help finding new music there's just no hope for you.
Well people ask me this question which you would know if you watched it instead of just “loling” at it
@@wyattxhim The title alone is still fucking hilarious and I'll continue to "lol" at it.

How can I keep up with metal youtubers when im too busy keeping up with the Kardashians?
everyone listen to my music!
I used to click random band on metal archives for hours and just check out any band that seemed interesting and I found a lot of good shit and also a lot of terrible shit
My way (‘if’ anyone gives two shits) is by following these 7 UA-cam Channels exclusively …
*Billy .Crustie*
*NOISE_NOT_MUSIC*
*dule klc2*
*UKBANDSS*
*Harakiri Diat*
*Absent Friend*
*No Deal*
Damn, I’m the 665th like
