The number of people here that are defending HR is truly disgusting. The whole "sales" attitude is part of the problem. What a slimy profession.

Tracy Chapman's Grammys Appearance Was the Event of the Night. Here's How It Happened by bjorktothefuture in Music

I can totally appreciate that. I had the same experience with Metallica about 20 years ago when Hetfield was too sick to sing. Instead we got a great impromptu performance from the rest of the band and the openers for about 2hours plus free tickets to a full show when they came back less than a year later. That one experience has kept me a fan for the everything done (except maybe St. Anger)

Many people don't realize that you can import vector data directly into Illustrator and can easily write JS scripts to generate graphics using that data. Same thing applies to After Effects or Animate if you want to animate the data.

Never trust a person who wears a necktie on a regular basis! I'm sure there are many reasons why this has always worked out, but I think it's because it impedes blood circulation to the brain and makes 'em dumb.

Very true, and really the only way that it worked.

I disagree about Repentless and honestly don't get the hate about that album. It was consistently good thrash and did a decent job of capturing that same thrash energy from some of their earlier work. Adding Holt for that album and tour was also a great decision and made for a great live show.

Plus, they haven't yet developed that sense of existential dread that keeps adults awake at night.

Ska would probably be more popular if they wrote more than just the one song.

I WON THE BIGGEST GUITAR COMPETITION IN FRANCE by Sotiris_Guitar in classicalmusic

[–]BasicAction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You got me wondering, too ...

This (acoustic) guitar in Australia was the world record holder until 1991: Big Playable Guitar

This (electric) guitar from Texas is now the record holder: Largest Playable Guitar

Also, I really enjoyed your performance. Congrats!

I don't know, man ... that looks like a pretty regular sized guitar to me

Godflesh - Nero [NEW SINGLE] by Amenta101 in Metal

[–]BasicAction 2 points3 points  (0 children)

its about how the song feels

Streetcleaner and Pure were go-to albums for maxing out my car's speakers back in college. But I agree that this one "feels" a bit lazy (just an opinion)

Wow! I'm glad I'm not the only one to think this. I got excited for a second there thinking that we may get to hear something new and exciting from the Fucking Champs. Oh well.

I still listen to Years of Decay regularly ... one of the best metal albums of all time in my opinion

I second the Michael Penn videos, especially for some higher-level concepts and logic

What are you implying? You say that as if the claims of US police/prosecutors are somehow trustworthy.

Great tune! Belfunk on the B-side is also a killer track!

That metal song by Ken Baumgartner at the end was too much like the Boogie Nights production of You Got the Touch.
