  1. I did not like this band at all. I saw them at a festival in 2000. They were brilliant. Fred is really good at working the crowds. Had much fun. Plus band is a tight unit. For me you only really get limp bizkit once you've seen them live. There's a few bands like that. I rarely listen to them now but the hot dog and the ....,.. album is great easy listening when I do. This makes sense though as Fred Durst talked his way into a record contract.
  2. Last time I went. We stayed in the motel. Well premier Inn. Looks like I'm in that club too ? main reason is I'm not fan of camping if I can help it. But when the kids are crying all night I sleep on the floor downstairs with no complaints. Peace and quiet. Re festival People were definitely respectful. I was sat on my portable chair fairly close to the stage with no issues and it was busy at the time. Would recommend it. Obviously down side is they have more mainstream bands. Still worth going to. See the big guns.
  3. I hope dianno formerly of maiden can do his last show as last show got cancelled for covid obviously. Bruce Dickinson is better singer but he lacks something dianno has. Its funny saying this but I know dianno has alot of fans to give him proper send off
  4. Good to hear from you balor. Re the black metal teacher. Think hardest part would be finding a teacher in the first place.maybe online teacher. There's got to be legit ones. You might even get a black metal legend to teach as covid may mean there teaching as income, although not convinced abbath would be good teacher ?, amazing guitarist yes but teacher ?Once you done few lessons why not. You could learn a few techniques even if you didn't go the whole way. Re your noise music Yeah I and a few others look forward to the day you put a link to your noise music on the site. Also great you got some stuff online released too even if one was not serious which is a shame. With re to bathory I know what you mean, there's albums I got where I like all the tracks but listening to whole album doesn't add anything. Then again latest pallbearer album sounds so much better played in full. Cool will look out for the thread here re art. Good luck with the music in 2021
  5. It's got to be chuck Norris. Lemmy is tough but has anyone seen the expendable film with him in. Classic. No question for me?
  6. Cool I knew there would some. May just have to look these up. Was the afterbirth album worth the wait? Was it an album you were really looking forward to? The acid reign album I didn't like that much at first but after a few plays through I really liked it. It was an album best played from start finish. Some albums are like that.
  7. Balor good to hear from you, ok well at least youve heard some of bathory all the way through. For some albums this is best way to listen to them. I rarely get the chance to listen to an album all the way through so am looking forward to opportunity's this year. Was listening to bathory all way through better experience than just individual tracks? Sounds like you got good at the painting models and war gaming stuff. What kind of models and war models were they? Was it Warhammer? Last year my best stuff was abstract art with the tie dye effect. I did some interesting stuff. Sounds horrible but it worked well and I got some good feedback too. It was a bit phsyodelic which wasn't the intention. Just how it worked out but I liked it. That and simple cartoons in a style that kids like. Turtles, Dolpins, pizza man ha ha ha and others. It was fun. So quite eclectic. Maybe re black metal composing you need to find yourself a teacher who can help you along with that maybe that could help you get some stuff done. Obviously good you can do the noise music. Will you release it one day.
  8. Yeah roots is not my favourite either. They have more of groove metal thing going on which didn't like so much. Still roots is a song I very much like. The album's before are better for me, guess I prefer the Thrashier music of albums schizophrenia, beaneath the ...., And arise, still like chaos ad but not quite as much chaos ad, it was my first proper metal album so I still value it for that. Haven't listened to much of Derrick green era. Sounds like you gave sepultura a go for most of there albums which is great. More than me and loads of others. ? I've listened to some stuff from green era and it was good, not max good but still . which is your favourite album of theres and why Did you ever see them live.
  9. Acid reign who were considered one of Britain's big four thrash bands released there album the age of entitlement approximately 29 years after there previous album. Its shame they didn't do anything sooner as I really like it. It got me thinking are there any other bands who have massive gaps between albums or massive gaps between when a favourite band member returned. Anyway looking forward to hearing some responses. Can you beat acid reign. Can ya ??????in all fairness I will put better case for acid reigns latest album if few people respond. Thanks ?
  10. Impressive stuff not drinking. I do like a drink but only few times a week. Definitely not every day anymore. Doesn't agree with me. I Listen to metal sober more than after a few. I can appreciate the music a bit more. Of course some music is great when your drunk. Candlemass can be good after a few especially debut album.
  11. Pleased to hear it ?in truth I'm hoping to see magnum when they play Cambridge in September.Might be ok. Some rather optimistic doctors from clinical commission group on radio said If people get vaccinated in enough numbers maybe the summer would be more normal. Normal enough for gigs concerts who knows. Also has anyone seen live recorded gigs on the computer. Im assuming it's mostly big bands who can pull this off Some bands even charge entry. Obviously rubbish compared to what live music can be but better than nothing.
  12. Maybe it depends on the label but et moriemur were very impressed with support they got from transcending obscurity records for there epigrammata album. They said thanks to the record labels support they got the sound they really wanted and thought on a bigger label this would not have been the case.
  13. Balor that's true, I can assume you've been more rocking out to first wave bands BM, I assume you meant venom,hell hammer Celtic frost and of course listen to more of bathory. Will probably give bathory a go if so many people like them. re noise music it's great to have a focus even if it you had other genres of music you wanted to write. I can relate to getting distracted. Think that was what you were saying. For example I spent too long ordering work stuff last night. Although very useful when it arrives. Finally what styles of paintings do you do. Have you had more luck with that. I get ridiculous long painters block so means my output is ridiculously slow and now I've stopped for a bit. Hope your having a top heavy metal weekend. ???
  14. That is obviously great to hear that female fronted bands get more respect from your experience, I guess myrkurs Amelie brunn concurs with this. I assumed it didn't matter if you were male or female from time to time you would have to defend yourself from idiots. Like the guitarist from a big band which I never expected he'd never get heat, who said he defended himself with his guitar on numerous occasions. I assumed females in metal might get slightly more hassle but this is just an opinion. Maybe there's less females in metal because more men prefer heavy metal more so that might account for it . Think either alabaster or macabre said this in previous one of these threads. Still it's interesting to think about it one more time. Not sure if it's helping your home work but I've been on the forum just a year and it's the third or fourth time this question has been asked. If you don't get many responses this might be why.
  15. Yowie looks good. I used to listen to alot of sepultura. Will check it out. What your best era for sepultura. The early thrash years, the roots groove metal era or the Derrick green stuff.
  16. That's great balor you done some of your resolutions. Maybe you can get some painting done this year and listen to old bm. How old is old. What bands are these ones. Is it from era before mayhem like bathory. Is bathory even black metal. Reason I brought this up is after looking back at last years new year week diary entries I noticed I didn't do any of them. Obviously this year. I can do them. ???But when I read your old thread was interested how you got on. And you did good. ??????????????
  17. A more interesting one this. Mince pies with some pepper. I get the standard very sweet mince pies sprinkle on pepper and hey presto instant master piece ??? this works a treat for me at least as takes off the overly sweet edge. You know it sounds amazing ???
  18. How did you get on with your goals 3 years on. Did you achieve any of them. My goal is 1)spend less time at work. Having no free time Monday to Friday sucks. One of my resolutions from last year's diary was spend less time at work. Didn't do it. That's my challenge this year. 2) do some am dram or do something creative like write music again. I've done some murder mystery nights and common topic is why don't you do some thing with your talent.
  19. More recent deaths are Riley gale from power trip and Alex from children of bodom. Even though Im not biggest fan of there music l can appreciate the great skill in Alex's playing. Extra sad those young deaths for me and Alex left a wife and child. So sad.
  20. Crystal ship is a very interesting song. Quite atmospheric as I remember. What did you like about that track. Also Was that from there debut. La women is a very good album. Quite a bluesy one. Not metal at all but what a great powerfull singer. Listened to that alot during family trip to California back in 97. A month in the VW van?Good times and good tunes. La woman is my best track from that album.
  21. My teenage years We're not the best. Was a down turn for metal in the late 1990s. So stopped listening for too long. Tried listening to other more socially acceptable genres but didn't like them until I heard slayer again on the radio.The rest we shall say is history. I'm never going back.??? Metal is my favourite and I don't care if it's not socially acceptable and it's peaked. I know this is not what your expecting for the thread but think some perspective must be made. An all positive thread is just too much. Life is dark and light. Surely ?
  22. Mine would be 1) early nineties sepultura 2)mid eighties era mettalica 3)slayeerrrrrrrrrrrrr
  23. As mad as it sounds I really like the recent opeth prog albums heritage,pale communion and sorcerer. I didn't like them at first but really like them now. There not metal albums for me at all and after Initially hating them for not having such great metal music in them and devoid of the for me one of my favourite guttoral singers. It's still sounds like opeth to me, at times it's just much slower and more ponderous. Initially I thought opeth should have changed there name. That probably would have been easiest really. I can see why people don't like them and I was one of them. To me when you hear Michael akerfeldt in interviews my take on them is he's not that big a metal fan, clearly he likes the genre but he likes alot of other genres more so in my humble opinion not that surprising they changed there style. Although some say new album is more metal but not heard it
  24. Definitely agree with you audiophile that st anger is very disappointing effort. I've tried to listen to it few times but admit I don't get it. Haven't listened for a while so probably worth another play.
