Kadavar are amazing, I would love to hear their new album.

I will not lie I bought into the whole nu-metal when it came out, I still like to jam to Korn every now and then. I did also hear their new song Never Never and if I didn't know that it was Korn, I would have been okay with it.

Delaney & Bonnie & Friends - Groupie

if you like Rod Stewart check out his band The Faces, they play some amazing blues rock. Best song by them is "wicked messenger"

There are new bands coming out that sound a lot like the 80's sythnwave type of stuff. Laserhawk, Megahertz, Dance of Dead, Zombi, etc...

Budgie is great, love their material. I have listen to most of their albums and really enjoyed them. A good solid rock band to chill to.

Genital Giant - Octopus

I recommend Igor Stravinsky's - firebird suite

Ghost is okay for what they are but they are essentially a gimmick band, so I leave it at that.

Forgotten Tomb - entombed by winter

Some power violence is good, I do like Capitalist Casualties and Spazz

same here lil bro, I always wanted to play in a band like them. Love their sound and the way they present themselves.

Super stoked that Watain is touring but I bet they will be no where near me. I have herd of Altar of Plagues and have been meaning to give them a chance. Don't get me wrong, sorry if I came of as a pureist prick I am really not. I do like other forms of BM. I love Forgotten Tomb, Borknagar, Wolves of the Throne Room, Ulver(both old & new), Blut Aus Nord, Deathspell Omega etc... I will check out Der Weg Einer Freihelt, you are like the 5th person to mention them to me.

that is a good one, I honestly like all their stuff. I just put it on shuffle with some Motorhead and go about my day.

I agree, when I saw my son being born it was like something inside me had changed instantly. I felt like I new that this little guy needed protection, food, warmth. It was a very primal spiritual thing for me. I know it sounds corny but for me it was true.

and MacabreEternal I highly respect you for your honestly. Not many people will own up little alone admit to what you just said.

So here are some of my demo tracks from my project Dirge For Today. So tracks are instrumental, while other have vocals. New material in the works soon, but please give a listen and tell me what you think.

thank you for the recommendations, will check them out. I do admit that Lurker of the Chalice is one of my go to albums to relax too.

I prefer mine like my coffee, black and bitter. I have been listening to black metal for well over a decade and I have seen it grow, change, and mature like a fine wine. I have also seen some of the worse crap come from it. I am  not what you call a kvltist but I do know there are something's that I just can not accept when it comes to black metal. Most notably it is this blackgaze stuff, a friend of mine played me some of their stuff and I just had to say no. The only band from this bastard offspring that I can even stomach would be maybe Autumn For Crippled Children, and even that pushes it. It is like black metal for emo/hipster kids. I know I am sure it has it's good points but I have yet to see them. I will stick to my favs and retire back till my cave, call me when Watain  comes back on tour.

I like them I also recommend X Japan

Love all of their stuff, would love to see them play a concert with Satan, Hell, and Cauldron

I got all their stuff on my computer, makes me want to play in a NWOBHM band lol

I understand where you are coming from, when I was a dad at 18 I was scared shitless mate. I was a kid myself, what the hell did I know about raising a child. As the years followed I had more and I realized that no one has a clue to as what they are doing and you just follow your instinct and make the little ones as happy as can be. Last night I gave our littlest one Rosie a Elmo doll that she could take a bath with and she broke out in the dance that was so freaking cute I laughed till I cried. The joy I felt was better than seeing my favorite death metal band Cannibal Corpse live. To me there is nothing more metal than being a parent. Cause if you can sport a Death shirt, wallet chain and a pink boa while playing tea party, then you sir are a bad ass.

well as of lately I have developed a thicker skin and now I just smile at people and say thank, have a good day.

tell them that your third eye is completely open and you foresee The Old Ones looking upon them lol
