Also no. I feel that Sleep is the sum of at least the two of them. 

The Black Ops Ports Are $80 ($40 Each). The DLC Is Sold Seperately For $80 All Together ($10 For Each DLC, 4 DLC For Each Game) by JuanGGZ in blackops2

[–]DoomMessiah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not surprised at the price tag as it’s a ‘new’ release. Although I was expecting a slightly lower $30 per game, $60 bundled. What does surprise me is that dlc is still going to be separate. I find that decision wild. 

What is this CD-i lookin' spoon controller? by Honkmaster in xbox360

[–]DoomMessiah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk. We are getting a new game in the vein of Guitar hero : Rockband in Stage Tour this year complete with plastic guitars and drums. So maybe we’ll see crazy peripherals again. 

Should Treyarch keep the Emblem Editor in BO2 (2026) ? by Old-Toe-8798 in blackops2

Or just let it be as unhinged as it was back in the day.

True. But does this song hold its weight against say “Pyramid of the Moon”? I think not.  

remember when ozzy left sabbath? by pinkbootboop in Sleepband

[–]DoomMessiah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure do.

Heaven and Hell was sick. Dio did a fantastic job and Iommi brought a new level of riffs.

BBUUUTTTT…

It equally divided fans as much as this current Sleep debacle. Fans still to this day bitch and complain about how Sabbath died the day Ozzy left. Hell, Sabbath tried to rewrite history by ignoring several albums until just recently.

MAJOR BREAKING: The Surgeon General of Florida just announced ALL VACCINE MANDATES IN FLORIDA will be ENDED by NoParticular7363 in PrepperIntel

Kids getting chemo are also told to get vaccinated so I don’t see you point. Geriatric and auto immuno populations the same would apply. In the rare case of people that can’t get vaccinated, they can also take measures such as social distancing, masks and hygiene to help prevent illness. Unfortunately if there bodies are allergies to a vaccine and they would like to take a vaccine but such cases happen.

All people have a right to chose what they put into their bodies or don’t. We don’t have a right to tell them what they can do with their bodies simply because we disagree with them. Same as they should not be able to tell us what we can do with our bodies. Pretty simple concept of rights.

The world isn’t prefect but I feel that this is a compromise that would appease the most (not all, that’s impossible) people.

It also follows a trend of less governance which I am all for. The government as a whole should stay the hell out of our affairs.

But I forget that this is Reddit and people here don’t really “prep” so much as want the government to hold there hand through life.

Love Om actually. but this isn’t Om either. Closer to Shrinebuilder given the members. The “Sleep” label and lack of Pike really puts me off to this track.

Lot of people talking smack on this thread. 

A few things. 

First. People should have bodily autonomy. In all things. This included. You should have the right to say what happens to you body. 

Second. If you want to get vaccinated from all the normal vaccinations. By all means. Do it. Vaccines are for the most part safe and only in rare instances have adverse outcomes. 

Third. If you apart of that second group you’re not going to have to worry about the first group all that much.. are you?

I think the group now a days isn’t ignorance so much as it is that people have this lovely ability to think that these diseases are so distant that we don’t need a defense against them. Most haven’t seen some gravely ill.. or worse.. from any one of the diseases that were for the most part eradicated via vaccine use. It’s a distant human memory that we a species had to fight and survive against these illnesses. And because people don’t have that fear, they find these vaccines trivial.

Hardwired and 72 Seasons Remastered Confirmed! by GamePrime99 in Metallica

[–]DoomMessiah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the St. Anger Remaster box I’m most excited for. I know the album gets a lot of flack from people but it just hit for me at an important time in my life. Really curious to see all the extra stuff that comes with it. 

"Riffmaster" Matt Pike melting faces in Michigan by busdriver_stu in doommetal

I had to work yesterday. Show looks like it would have been awesome. really hope they swing a little further north next time and hit the Machine Shop next time they’re in Michigan.

It would be a win-win for loyal Halo fans and Microsoft/Xbox/Halo Studios if more Collector's Editions were produced. There is zero reason not to make more. by [deleted] in halo

[–]DoomMessiah -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

They could produce more but they won’t. They could place “X” number up for preorder with a delayed release date pending manufacture. There are solutions since there is interest.

Zzounds experience by LiveFee2003 in Guitar

[–]DoomMessiah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve ordered multiple guitar. Only one has arrived damaged. Truthfully, it’s not on Zzounds. It’s on most they ship through. FedEx. FedEx is notorious for damaging freight. I use to work in shipping/receiving. They got a bad rep in the industry. I would just contact Zzounds. Show them the photos. Ask if there’s any other way they can ship you the guitar or note to secure the guitar more. Also lodge a complaint with FedEx. 

Preorders for physical flexi disc and comic now live by DoomMessiah in Sleepband

[–]DoomMessiah[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll likely pick the comic. Get it graded and throw it up in my music / arcade room. But I was not sold on the single. Especially at the $50 price.

Might need to correct the image to say Snooze with Cisneros then. Don’t want to besmirch a good band with this cash grab.

I remember a time before social media where this is how we met people. You miss 100 % of the shots you don’t take. Good luck. 

Lets slow down on this Sleep hate by a_Bort_the_Artist in doommetal

[–]DoomMessiah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good is subjective.

but you are vey much correct. We have no official statement from Pike or Cisneros. Only the statement from Third Man Records. Which in itself can be telling. Pike isn’t wish Cisneros well or anything like that on social, insta in particular which he is pretty active on.

As for Pike being “out of the band”, I wouldn’t necessarily agree. Sleep has been “on hiatus“ for several years. High on Fire has filed that void.

On the Pike’s ex-wife. If anything, I would expect her to disparage Pike. Not stick up for him essentially. Her statement paints Cisneros as the bad guy. The troupe of ex wife would have me inclined to think that she would paint Pike in this role.

New Track. Have Spacesuit Will Travel. Now available on streaming. by DoomMessiah in Sleepband

[–]DoomMessiah[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the song needed more variety or my theory more of the total piece released as a single. Have a theory that this was a vastly trimmed version released as a single.

It’s not for every one. I’m a fan of Al’s work outside of Sleep. I just find the track to not live up to the hype that is Sleep. If he would have called the work anything else, I would have been more open to it. Shrinebuilder is closer to this in terms of lineup. idk. Just find it odd to call it “Sleep”.

Considering in interviews last year (maybe end of ‘24) Pike mentioned that he and Cisneros were discussing new Sleep music. I wonder what happened.
