  1. I would say now for me the fan. I've got so much choice on steaming and download sites. In the past getting smaller band music was harder but now thanks to streaming and download sites its alot easier.
  2. Mine is short but my dad used to play dire straits in the car for long journeys and I liked the sound but I wanted something heavier. That was when I knew metal was for me. I was probably about 8 years old?first proper metal song I heard was pantera and sepultura on a metal compilation album my uncle gave me. Shedding skin and terrortiary, I was shocked because I thought a monster was singing. Soon came round to the music though.
  3. Father alabaster good to hear from you. Tbh that's interesting what you say re tweaking pictures in photo shop to create an improved picture. I've certainly used basic photo edit in the past to good effect when I was part of a art group but wasn't sure if it cheating. I guess it's just another tool to utilise abit like using an iPad to draw with. I know someone who does really good stuff on that. Your music sounds interesting. Have you posted on this site.
  4. Also have you seen Japanese version of the ring. Well worth a watch. Not seen for many years but was worth the watch when I got it from blockbuster video years ago. Similar film to silent hill for me anyway.
  5. At least it wasn't just me who liked the silent hill movies NAT. ? I guess it wasn't most original but look of film worked well for me at least, if atmospheric fog and smoke is your thing. Story was interesting too. Which wicker Man are you watching the modern one or Christopher Lee original
  6. Frasier. I tend to remember those especially nasty things too. Like there was a guy I used to know from work who got 20 plus years and he very much deserved that. I won't say what on this thread. I read about it in local paper and I can't forget what he did to the victims. Re movies has anyone seen silent hill. It's a very atmospheric film based on video game starring Sean bean. I definitely liked the look of film. Lots of fog and smoke. amazing visuals . Not that much happens as I remember but it's definitely quite creepy.
  7. Some people say speed metal took inspiration from there fast songs. I can't quite see that but it's interesting idea. They also say the way Ian Gillen sang especially child of time with the use of big vocals was also inspiration for metal. Im not sure about that but I like there music for the harder stuff they did. In Rock is a good one. Tbh not listened to that for few years so worth a play. Have you got a favourite record of theres
  8. Thanks Natassja. Thanks for the recommendation re rob zombie film, what a talent eh rock star and good movie director. And digging up the marrow will have to Google that. j Thanks for link.
  9. Is digging up the marrow really a movie. ??? Sounds horrendous bit I'm ignorant about it so is that comedy horror on purpose or unintentionally? I've heard good things about house of 1000. Probably worth a Google to find out plot.was that his breakthrough film. Sounds interesting. What's idea behind that
  10. Fantastic you've done some cover art and achieved a youth ambition plus your doing some now. Great stuff. Too many people never achieve there youth ambition so I doff my hat to you. Interesting how you can either do other people's work or your own stuff. Who knows why tbh. Probably only you can work that out. But maybe both require so much concentrated attention that it's really really tough to do both. with re finding it difficult to paint for your own music it's probably very healthy that you do more photo based stuff and have the variety of that. Doing the photo stuff may help when your Painting. Your right probably hard to do your own cover art when you compose it too. Makes sense as you've probably got stronger opinions about what the music means which makes creating original painting really hard. Also do you ever Photoshop a painting. Or is this cheating. ? Also what genre of music do you write?
  11. Slayer- reign in blood. I love that record from start to finish. Not a wasted song for me. Its there peak for me. Definitely the album to get and should think most fans have this already. It's so exciting. Definitely speeded a few times to this by mistake which I'm not proud of? although got away with it ?

    Travel

    Blut aus nerd New Zealand is really worth visiting when covid drops off to allow travel again. I went to north island around five years ago. It's probably best place I've traveled too. Lots of good places to visit. Very unspoilt. It reminded me of southern California but without the freeways.? Down side is it's super expensive.
  13. Cool. Will see rest of sepultura live video you posted. It's really good but got bit distracted with life and lack of free time. I've been watching children of bodum live as after Kerry king was singing Alex laiho praises thought I would check it out. What an amazing player live and so quick. Keyboardist is great too. So sad he died at 41. Whilst I'm not biggest fan of there sound I can really appreciate the skill and like the music enough to keep watching.
  14. I bought your album so have been rocking out to it a few times. It's got such good production too. It's really impressive. I reckon you could charge more for it as I paid more than minimum price. Re album It kind of reminds me a bit of that Gothenburg sound in places. Do you know what I mean. In flames those sort of bands. It's only parts of it though.still what vocals. Really good. Are you still in this band? Also Do you do any warm ups with your vocals as I've heard it can help.i only do metal singing in the car when I'm driving tired ? re the name that makes complete sense. Cremated enemy about war and political stuff. Thanks for info. im in no band at moment. Although may end up doing some music with my mate on zoom. I know it sounds crazy and probably is ?Just for fun music though tbh. Not your level.
  15. I've seen clips from it and I can see why you were bit disappointed by it. It was more laughter than should have been for this genre. Agree with your points from what I've seen. Sounds like short story is much better. That's the one I'd go for. Thanks though for explaining. Was the sound track good. Definitely one to look forward to. I used to see them most years. I guess depends on direction of movie for me. If it's more like the original films I would watch it. The Rob zombie films creeped me out too much. Of course the sound track is iconic. One of my favourite horror themes. excorcist is great too.
  16. Father alabaster. Did you ever do cover art for metal bands. For some reason I assumed you did some cover art. Definitely your teenage dream was a good one though. I've heard far worse. More interesting than the dream people used to tell me about at school that height of there dreams was to own a sports car.? When I younger I was not so much into the cover art and would have preferred a photo. But now. It certainly draws me in. Obviously I've still got to like the music and there's fair few albums with killer art that I just don't like the music at all. To a reasonable extent I can tell from cover what the music is like. So I kinda judge from the cover. And definitely I miss out on some great albums which have rubbish or just average cover art. Although there are some exceptions but not many Here's to one day soon that you can do some metal cover art and that both of us would be slightly less judgemental re cover art.
  17. A massive Kerry king style chain for keeping it slayer. ??????No there's only one Kerry king. It's just a massive chain for securing gates at work. Another one of those bought on computer items that are in reality much bigger than I was expecting ?
  18. I'm a big fan of the cover artwork of heavy metal. I'm also interested in seeing what album cover art other people really like and why. I will post some good ones too. I'm quite a fan of candlemass second album cover art for instance. Reasons why I like candlemass nightfall album cover. The interesting contrast between the dark and light parts of the picture. The rest of the picture I like as it's very atmospheric. However not a fan of the far away angel. Kinda of spoils it for me a bit. Also the angel interacting with the man is interesting too.
  19. I may have to watch children of corn ? to see if it's as bad as you say. Maybe your expectations were bit high. Might be better on a second viewing in the future. What was so bad about it. Was the horror bit tame for you
  20. Have you seen tremors. That's a good light horror film with giants worms in it. It's pretty good. Would this be of interest, or does it have to be sci fi. Of course the Halloween films I liked alot. I love the use of camera in the first one especially. Am I right in assuming Dean cundey as director of photography definitely earnt his pay on that movie.
  21. I don't know about these. Will give it a Google. Obviously dark throne could be different story. I'm talking generally. Most albums I've got have drawn art rather than the photographic art.
  22. Quoting myself is crazy ? but didn't fully write message. There's loads of big names who recorded at the studio including paradise lost for Draconian album. I just remember all the gold records on the walls. Most of it was not great music such as Sade ? but yeah it was funny going to wedding for my cousin and finding out Ozzy was here recording a classic album with randy roads all those years ago, probably getting smashed on whisky. Oh Ozzy ?
  23. Prob about time we gave them a listen then eh ? Also Ozzy Osbourne and randy roads are legends to me and went to a wedding at the place where blizzard of Oz was recorded. It's a shame there not doing recording there .
  24. Wow what a guitarist. I only see him on you tube videos but he could play the cool technical solos so well . The quiet riot stuff was great especially that video to come on feel the noise.
