What would you recommend for someone who likes Metallica and In Flames?

Revengeance already made a great post, but since I first got into metal because of melodeath I'll suggest a few more and hopefully in 3 years you'll be harassing Bolt Thrower daily for them to make a new album:

They called it quits quite a while ago.

anyone got any bands that are folk/doom that give off a calming atmosphere?

maybe something along the lines of agalloch or ulver, if I'm describing it correctly

Maybe you've heard Empyrium
Uaral is a good one, they're folk doom from Chile but sometimes this is really depressive; Diadema Tristis from Argentina, Silent Stream of Godless Elegy and Raxa, this last one is more like ambient.

YES, Empyrium was the one I was thinking about. I suppose they're worth giving a shot, although it's hard to find bands similar to Agalloch.

@ Blut Aus Nord - I've heard... Yeah, you can pretty much assume I haven't heard it. I've heard a little bit of Nyktalgia, and anything else I've listened to I've forgotten, so it's safe to assume that anything goes. (Edit: I like Nyktalgia except for the vocals. I dunno, they just make me feel slamming my head into the keyboard.)

Also, thank you Reveangance. I'll check those out as soon as my computer isn't struggling to maintain basic functions.

You'd have a good time listening to:

Blut aus Nord (Memoria Vetusta I: Fathers of The Icy Age)
Bekhira (L'Elu Du Mal)
Odal (Wilde Kraft...)
Astral Aeon
Morker (Hostmakter)
Hoest
Anti
Deathspell Omega (Inquisitors of Satan)
Kriegsmaschine
Mgla
Irrwisch
Ossein (Declination)
Forest (Rus) (Like A Blaze Above The Ashes)
Kroda (Cry To Me, River...)
Thy Light
Trimonium (Blow The Horns)
Desolation Triumphalis
Cobalt (Gin)
Woe
Ad Hominem (Climax of Hatred)
The Ruins of Beverast
Horn (Naturkraft)
Furia
Sturmkaiser (Veni Vidi Vici)

Alright! Thank you all - I'm going to check all of this out. This ought to keep me busy for a while!

(On a side note, I have no idea why the hell I quoted my own post. I'm sure I thought it served a purpose at the time, but man, I really don't know what that would be.)

All of this is some of the best in BM, lol this is the best of the stuff I don't keep secret. mrgreen

=o
I would love to know what is being kept a secret, Lovely. ;]

But, if you knew, then all the kvlt underground bands that sacrifice virgin stillborn children will gain exposure, and then we'd have a mass suicide rate on our hands gonk

Or they'll just set something on fire, whatever those Black Metal kids are doing these days.

Prog rock with doom influence from the guys from Empyrium. It's also mellow as ******** and still one of my favorite albums of all time. Don't get any of their other albums, though. Unless you enjoy dissapointment. I'd say give The Mist and the Morning Dew a listen for more melancholy folk/doom, but that again would probably lead to dissapointment. Better to stick with Uaral and SSoGE.

Hence the need to harass them.

Looking for bands that write about the Russian Revolution, if that exists. If not, bands that just write in Russian.

Bands that write about general Russian history are acceptable too.

I totally should have thought of this the first time I saw your post. I feel retarded.

Try Turisas. At very least, their song 'Rasputin' describes some minor Russion history. (in a humorous way.)
