I can't wait to see Mastodon again, it should be epic. I'm glad Brann has started singing now too, he has a great voice which really works well with Troys.

f*ck, Skeletonwitch and Saviours are coming to San Diego the week before I go out there, and there is no Massachusetts dates. This is pretty crap. At least I'll still be seeing Clutch and Baroness.

[Miskatake]

Albums I'm listening to now: Unanimated - In The Light Of Darkness, Stratovarius - Polaris and Sapattivuosi - Ihmisen Merkki (Finnish musicians covering Black Sabbath songs, both eras; Dio era and Osbourne era..)

 

oh and the DVD I just bought: Stam1na - K13V.

 

 

 

 

[King Of Monra]

I'm going to the Norwegian rock festival.

I know there are a few people here who'll be interested.

 

New Be'lakor tracks.

 

Nothing I haven't already heard at gigs and such, but f*cking hell they sound fantastic properly recorded.

[Scarface187]

Awesome, dude. This band is really catching my interest. I got all the free MP3's off last.fm and they're great. I'll be buying this album.

[Trows]

Definitely look into getting their debut, "The Frail Tide".

 

Doesn't matter how, just do it

They are pretty damn epic. I look forward to the full release.

 

The ending of From Scythe to Sceptre was very Opeth I though. Awesome.

Is anyone from The UK going to download this year, i wish i got a ticket.

 

[Scarface187]

I saw that line up a week ago and was actually surprised how many good bands were on it. There are still more sh*tty bands though.

[oklp]

clutch are playing, i know everyone here likes clutch

[Slamman]

I'd go just for Lawnmower Deth and VOI VOD!! Without Piggy and Blacky, can never match their former glory, believe Jason Newsted is still on bass?

 

Coming up this month near St. Paul, MN! ABSU and Flight of the Valkyries fest...all female singing metal bands on that bill, check them out!!

 

This show went on this evening, but I was out getting pizza when it was going down;

You picked up on that too? I went in 2007, far better line-up but still the same issues. Course, the more "popular", contemporary bands are going to printed in big, bright letters. It sells tickets. Here's 2007's line-up.

 

 

[Slamman]

F U buddy, DEF LEPPARD is great live, always has been and will continue to be a classic and GREAT ROCK band.

 

That being said, there's a movie put together documenting the life and times of seminal Canadian powerhouse A N V I L

 

I recommend everyone see it, no excuses

Before we proceed, did Meshuggah run a train on your fat momma yesterday or something?

[oklp]

nope i just hate em

[ToyMachine]

Fair enough, you don't like their music. It's not easy to get into but I personally like it. But don't insult their musicianship. Cause if anything, Meshuggah know how to play their instruments and try to push them to new levels. If you ever pick up an instrument, learn and master syncopation, time signatures, tempo changes and polyrythms get back to us.

[Trows]

I'm interested, if you don't believe that Mesuggah are technically proficient, what're some bands who are?
