Recently, the store did some renovations, one of them being adding a "Metal" section instead of keeping it all under "Pop/Rock". She told me it's now complete and for me to check it out and see what I think. So I did. And it basically blew. There was s**t in there like Slipknot, alexisonfire, etc. but they did semi-redeem themselves with material from Grave Digger, Children of Bodom, Opeth and the like. I had high hopes for it but, all hope was lost. UNTIL! She told me that the store was open to suggestions of which CDs from which bands to order.
So I ask you this: What bands would YOU like to suggest? I mean, I already have some ideas for her but I need a more vast population to survey than just myself. Thanks a lot guys.

I don't like all of these bands myself, but still, my taste is not everyone tastes.
Elvenking Vintersorg Borknagar Thyrfing Finntroll Skyclad Ensiferum Windir Moonsorrow Equilibrium Dream Theater Ayreon Pain of Salvation Queensryche Metallica (the METAL albums) Iron Maiden Black Sabbath Accept Judas Priest Bruce Dickinson Scorpions Dio Saxon Iced Earth Blind Guardian Helloween Gamma Ray Kamelot Hammerfall Dream Evil Nightwish Sonata Arctica Grave Digger Running Wild 3 inches of blood Children of Bodom Falconer Rhapsody Dragonforce Mercyful Fate King Diamond Venom Bathory Einherjer Mayhem Darkthrone Sigh Immortal Burzum Slayer Anthrax Overkill Megadeth Torture Squad Demilich Atheist Cannibal Corpse Tristania Theatre of Tragedy Type O Negative Cradle of Filth Dimmuborgir
Eh, that will do. I'm tired and my head works less than usual, if possible.

Let's be realistic people...please. There's no ******** way that store is going to order Demilich albums, and it's hardly unlikely that they're going to order black metal albums or death metal ones aside from Cannibal Corpse and Morbid Angel. I'd say try for stuff just below the mainstream that would still sell decently, like Corrosion of Conformity.

It was worth a try at least. *sighs*

It happens for all other kinds of music though, they choose the closest category. And yeah I do realise Nu Metal isn't actually all that close to Metal musically, having more in common with Rock... but the name means that is where people will look for it.

Bella Morta What bands would YOU like to suggest? That was a part ov the question, no? Harvested Sorrow, we are simply naming bands that we would enjoy to see in our local store. Do not demand seriousness or turn down surrealism.
It would be rather interesting to have all these bands at hand. And I can promise they would sell in my location, for a store has CD's like that, and they can hardly stay on the shelves.
