Metal chicks and fashion? Do you care? Do you go for the girls in leather pants and 24 eyelet boots and gothic wear? Do you like the intense makeup and the kind of 'bad ass metal chick' look? Do you go for more feminine metal heads' date=' a la Simone Simmons of epica or Tarja, or do you like the rough chick look like Doro Pesch or Lzzy Hale? Would you just prefer a girl who dresses 'normal' that you can bring home to mom?[/quote'] I really agree with Midi on this one. I feel more attracted to a normal look, although not "to normal". Like Midi said: a small edition, like colouring hair or something looks imo really great. Probably in combination with just a band-shirt and jeans. Mostly, I don't like this kind of fashion: 0e776fd1305fc002dd45a326cbd28173.jpg

I find such fashion one of the most ugly things there is. Now that I think of it... I do think girls in battle vests can be very attractive

Like this girl? Then I agree :D542772_558720604146890_1845875064_n.jpg
I'm not really picky about fashion/clothing styles on women, but since hot metal ladies seem to be something of a rarity in my area (yet a few of you have gathered here), it's kind of a turn on that would elevate how attractive they are to me. Many of the girls at MDF, for instance, were decent looking to totally gorgeous, but seeing many of them rocking shirts and patches from awesome bands made the whole experience much more fun (eye candy). I don't care for dreadlocks at all, but one of these girls out there was insanely hot even with them. She had a Venom tshirt on and was rocking out to Taake, I was shocked.

I want to hear it from the guys: Metal chicks and fashion? Do you care? Do you go for the girls in leather pants and 24 eyelet boots and gothic wear? Do you like the intense makeup and the kind of 'bad ass metal chick' look? Do you go for more feminine metal heads, a la Simone Simmons of epica or Tarja, or do you like the rough chick look like Doro Pesch or Lzzy Hale? Would you just prefer a girl who dresses 'normal' that you can bring home to mom?
If I'm honest I'm answering because I like to talk about myself, as you know I don't have any dating experience whatsoever. Honestly, any of those could work if she's a kind, interesting Christian. I'm not all that fussed about hair length although I don't like anything shorter than a pixie cut and I'm not fond of frizzy hair. Glasses are nice provided they're the right sort. I don't like tattoos, if only because you can't get an MRI with them, and generally piercings are ugly although a pair of ear studs can look marvelous. If I had to pick an ideal look it's usually something combining panache with practicality; fitted jeans and shirt over a healthy frame is something I usually find attractive. Fitted leather jackets are awesome.

I didn't know you were Christian? Íf you are?
Yes; a Protestant and a serious one at that. Another limit on my romantic prospects; not many intelligent girls who are also meaningfully Protestant. Parenthetically I do love a nice silver cross necklace.

My girlfriend I spoke about a few days ago was also a Protestant. I even got one of those silver cross necklaces from her... What makes you limiting any girls you'd date to Protestants if I may ask? Acceptance in your family, a basis of similar beliefs...?

Clearly not a very good Protestant if she was that rude. As for my limitation, it's about similar beliefs. I can be friends with someone of a different religion but I cannot imagine attempting to swing a relationship with anyone who didn't share my faith. Theologically it's actually permissible but I personally couldn't hack it.

I guess I could defy that statement, but it wouldn't be a constructive discussion. I see your point. However, I must say that having someone close to you with a different religion brings fortth some interesting discussions. We used to spend hours trying to understand each other's God. What do you mean by 'theologically permissible'? Something like 'ethically acceptable/responsible'?

Yeah' date=' essentially. There's a passage in one of the Pauline Epistles where it's stated that it's acceptable for Christians to marry non-Christians.[/quote'] I'm very curious now. To what extent would you say Protestantism influences your life? (This might be the most interesting conversation I've ever had at 5AM)

All interesting conversations take place early in the morning. :D Not enough. I hold its values supreme but I frequently act out of accordance with said values. I wish I were a better Christian than I am and I'm trying to work on it. However, I'd say overall it influences my life very strongly, which is why I couldn't be in a relationship with anyone who didn't share that value set. As you'll see by my posts on this forum I attempt to defend Christianity perpetually and derive my ethical sentiments from it.

Aiming to become a better Christian shows a striving for becoming a better person, a rarely seen value these days. I think your 'not enough' is out of place. You seem to have all motivation you need to keep working on that. You may not yet be the Christian you'd want to be, but isn't working on becoming a better human the goal itself?

Yes' date=' because to be a better Christian is to be a better human being. I'm guilty of all of the 'seven cardinal sins', but sloth, wrath and lust probably rank as the three that I'm least successful in combating.[/quote'] I think that those things which Christianity calls 'sins' are natural reactions caused by an attempt to unconciously regain subjective balance in any situation, but that would be my explanation for every single action done by human beings. Anyway, my point is that I think those 'sins' are inherent to the mechanism of the human psychology. So do they make one 'guilty'? I think not. It's a lack of will to achieve the reflex of handling situations more mature which makes people 'guilty' if you ask me.

    • Sacred Reich "Awakening"

      MacabreEternal posted a blog entry in Album Reviews,

      Whichever tier of thrash metal you consigned Sacred Reich back in the 80's/90's they still had their moments.  "Ignorance" & "Surf Nicaragura" did a great job of establishing the band, whereas "The American Way" just got a little to comfortable and accessible (the title track grates nowadays) for my ears.  A couple more records better left forgotten about and then nothing for twenty three years.  2019 alone has now seen three releases from Phil Rind and co.  A live EP, a split EP with Iron Reagan and now a full length.

      Notable addition to the ranks for the current throng of releases is former Machine Head sticksman, Dave McClean.  Love or hate Machine Head, McClean is a more than capable drummer and his presence here is felt from the off with the opening and title track kicking things off with some real gusto.  'Divide & Conquer' and 'Salvation' muddle along nicely, never quite reaching any quality that would make my balls tingle but comfortable enough.  The looming build to 'Manifest Reality' delivers a real punch when the song starts proper.  Frenzied riffs and drums with shots of lead work to hold the interest.


      There's a problem already though (I know, I am such a fucking mood hoover).  I don't like Phil's vocals.  I never had if I am being honest.  The aggression to them seems a little forced even when they are at their best on tracks like 'Manifest Reality'.  When he tries to sing it just feels weak though ('Salvation') and tracks lose real punch.  Give him a riffy number such as 'Killing Machine' and he is fine with the Reich engine (probably a poor choice of phrase) up in sixth gear.  For every thrashy riff there's a fair share of rock edged, local bar act rhythm aplenty too.

      Let's not poo-poo proceedings though, because overall I actually enjoy "Awakening".  It is stacked full of catchy riffs that are sticky on the old ears.  Whilst not as raw as perhaps the - brilliant - artwork suggests with its black and white, tattoo flash sheet style design it is enjoyable enough.  Yes, 'Death Valley' & 'Something to Believe' have no place here, saved only by Arnett and Radziwill's lead work but 'Revolution' is a fucking 80's thrash heyday throwback to the extent that if you turn the TV on during it you might catch a new episode of Cheers!

    • Overkill "The Wings of War"

      MacabreEternal posted a blog entry in Album Reviews,

      Full length number 19 from overkill certainly makes a splash in the energy stakes, I mean there's some modern thrash bands that are a good two decades younger than Overkill who can only hope to achieve the levels of spunk that New Jersey's finest produce here.  That in itself is an achievement, for a band of Overkill's stature and reputation to be able to still sound relevant four decades into their career is no mean feat.  Even in the albums weaker moments it never gets redundant and the energy levels remain high.  There's a real sense of a band in a state of some renewed vigour, helped in no small part by the addition of Jason Bittner on drums.  The former Flotsam & Jetsam skinsman is nothing short of superb throughout "The Wings of War" and seems to have squeezed a little extra out of the rest of his peers.

      The album kicks of with a great build to opening track "Last Man Standing" and for the first 4 tracks of the album the Overkill crew stomp, bash and groove their way to a solid level of consistency.  The lead work is of particular note and Blitz sounds as sneery and scathing as ever.  The album is well produced and mixed too with all parts of the thrash machine audible as the five piece hammer away at your skull with the usual blend of chugging riffs and infectious anthems.  


      There are weak moments as mentioned but they are more a victim of how good the strong tracks are.  In it's own right "Distortion" is a solid enough - if not slightly varied a journey from the last offering - but it just doesn't stand up well against a "Bat Shit Crazy" or a "Head of a Pin".  As the album draws to a close you get the increasing impression that the last few tracks are rescued really by some great solos and stomping skin work which is a shame because trimming of a couple of tracks may have made this less obvious.
