Going to Budapest for the second time in my life tomorrow in the morning. It's gonna be cool for a couple of days, I'm not sure what I'm gonna visit, but maybe zoo, some different stuff that I haven't seen yet.

Summoning - Grey Heavens

Promotional cover art for "Vlast" (Svarun cover). Artwork by Vladimir Stanišić (Wlad Sinnistrat). Coming 2017.

1. Stratovarius 2. Sonata Arctica These are my favorites, I know and love almost anything Sonata does, with Stratovarius I was a HUGE, HUGE fan of 'Infinity', but I listened to other records too. 3. Iced Earth 4. Kamelot 5. Hammerfall Not a big fan, but I really enjoyed different tracks from different periods, I even sang some IE and Hammerfall stuff and enjoyed it. 6. Sabaton Really awesome live band. 7. Dream Evil 'Book of Heavy Metal'. Nothing more to say. 8. Dragonforce I like that crazy speed. Not exactly top ten bu I think it's ok.

Fear Factory - Demanufacture (album)

Sodas and energy drinks.

"Tragedy" and intro "Mist" stayed with me for many years now so I kinda mentioned it, I felt it was aggressive enough but yeah, you can probably say it for some other songs. Maybe I would put "Fiend" also, I know it's kinda polished but I don't know, I feel like it's a really pissed off song every time I listen to those raw riffs and vocals.

Rammstein - Keine Lust

Bowl of pasta with mashed potatoes.

Fear Factory - New Messiah Fear Factory - Dielectric

Korn - Here to Stay Slipknot - I am Hated Linkin Park - Faint System of a Down - Know Coal Chamber - Tragedy Godsmack - I Stand Alone Machine Head - From This Day Fear Factory - Linchpin Limp Bizkit - Counterfeit

Mike Patton, Trent Reznor, Devin Townsend, James Hetfield, Johnatan Davis, Corey Taylor.

Yeah, their early death metal sound is very much like some bands from 90s. Very interesting transformation.

I mostly agree with this, I'd only add that this term could be a style of playing and aestethic, playing polyrhytmic patterns on mostly just one or few notes on guitar that has seven or more strings in that very low tuned way.

Bowl of french fries and sandwiches.

Fear Factory - Mechanize Korn - B.B.K.

Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross - What if We Could

"If you can't handle failure, then I don't think that success is an option. So you might as well learn to fail efficiently and move on." - Devin Townsend

Slipknot - The Blister Exists

You can also try with "Marnak" and "Catcher" if you want, these are original songs that I did almost two-three years ago. "Marnak" is kinda like Motley Crue/GNR/Billy Idol sound in modern metal production like Mnemic or Sybreed while "Catcher" would be much more like Faith No More/Nine Incha Nails/Linkin Park type of thing.

Thank you for your opinion, I'm happy you gave it a listen and I understand all the pros and cons of everything. Cool, thanks again, I appreciate it.

Static-X - Shadow Zone

I know it's kinda self promotion, but in terms of nu metal rebirth, I recorded last fall cover of Limp Bizkit's track "Just Like This" from "Significant Other". If anyone cares, I think it's good recording and you could give it a shot with listening to it.
