This made a good first impression, and I plan on sitting down to listen to it all later.
I also couldn't fucking believe it when I clicked "Show All" and it said this came out in 1997.

dead inside.
I listened to Heaven and Hell per your recommendation. Outside of H&H, Neon Knights, and Children of the Sea, the album doesn't hold up that well for me, but those 3 songs are glorious.

Just gotten Watains new album and dear satan, They Rode On has to be the best song they have ever made and will ever make.
A black metal ballad as evil as the growliest grinder.

I don't care for Malmsteen so I don't know if they sing differently with him, but out of those vocalists Mats Levén is probably my favourite. Guy has insane range and talent.
Whoa, that is fucking awesome.

Probably Graham Bonnet. I'm not the biggest Malsteem fan (though I don't criticize him for a lack of soul like some wannabe music critics do), but I enjoy his music from time to time. Out of all of those vocalists, that dude.

I can't tell if you're serious or sarcastic. I am a big fan of singers that can do that (Rob Halford is another one. I do understand it's not for everyone.

Sorry man, I am NOT fan of their music.
Necrophobic - The Nocturnal Silence
This album... It rules so hard
WAIT A MINUTE THEY HAVE A NEW ALBUM COMING OUT ON OCT. 25TH?!

And we were so close of going a full page without anyone mentioning a shitty metalcore* band(at least I think we were).

Mark Boals. Trilogy is by far my favorite Malmsteen album, songs are actually good by themselves beyond Yngwie's shredding.
Vulture Industries put the title song of their upcoming album on Youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acZ_pm7R22Q
I like it, but hope Bjornar screams on some of the tracks on the album. The lyrical content is right up my alley, which is lucky.
For comparison, here is a track from their previous album - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeGiZLHk2vI
If you haven't heard of them (I don't think they're very popular and the last time I mentioned them I got no bites), they're sort of like Arcturus but darker and with (even) more of an Edgar Allen Poe vibe and flair for dramatics. Their albums are loosely tied together conceptually, the first one being about individuality/dystopian future, second being about justice and crimes of the good side, and based on the song above, the third album may be about consumerism or consumption.
Plus their singer is in Black Hole Generator, whom I dislike, but hey maybe that'll get someones attention.

What does the term "pleonasm" pertain to "Metalcore" in this case?

Necrophobic fucking rules. Nocturnal Silence is a flawless album that just came out at the wrong time.
Pretty awesome Bathory - Enter The Eternal Fire cover too.
A new Necrophobic album makes no sense since that is David Parland's band and he has since passed away.
RIP David Parland

HoF - Madness of an Architect & Snakes for the Divine This performance really shows how gnarly this band is at the moment! Not just the music... 
Pantera - Primal Concrete Sledge in Russia. This one's a classic. I like how the band could be from today in every respect but the crowd very obviously is from a different time.

didn't even notice the metalcore. here's something to wash the bad taste away.

Speaking of metalcore, I was to a Walls of Jericho-concert last weekend. That was probably in my top ten of great concert-experiences. None of the tough guy hardcore mosh, but just big smiles all around, yelling our lungs out and smashing into eachother. And holy shit their lead singer can move. Jumping back and forth all around the stage, and generally just looking like the whole band was having a blast playing.
The crowd was, after the concert, just a sea of approving nods and knowing smiles to eachother.

There's a metalcore band called Walls of Jericho? IS NOTHING SACRED?!
I actually dig some of Walls of Jericho's acoustic stuff.

Diamond Plate is streaming their new album which is available now, it's thrash so it's probably okay http://www.terrorizer.com/news/streams/diamond-plate-stream-new-album-pulse-with-terrorizer/

"Shitty metalcore" is pleonasm because metalcore is shitty by definition
While I don't like much metalcore, I certainly wouldn't label it a shitty genre by definition as one of my favorite metal albums ever is Unearth's In The Eyes of Fire.

Yeah, I don't listen to much Metalcore, but Unearth is a solid band, no doubt. 'The Oncoming Storm' has a special place in my heart. One of my first screaming albums. It helps that the vocals aren't as emo as other Metalcore bands.

New Jesu record comes out in a month, new Pelican record in October. Gonna be some good times. Also, Crossfaith's new album was supposed to drop last week but i guess it got pushed back to Sept. 4th, so there's that.
I decided to listen to a song from that album because of your post, my opinion remains unchanged.
Palate cleanser.

Their gig is the only one I've ever needed ear plugs in. One of my friends felt physically ill there, and my girlfriend said she felt the vibrations down there. =)

As someone whose ears are permanently fucked up (hyperacusis) from a concert with bad acoustics, I hope these bands take that stuff seriously, no matter how hardcore they want to feel.
never heard of them,,,,
Yeah I've been to a few ear shattering shows. No doubt I have some type of hearing damage.
