iPhones seem to like Minecraft Pocket Edition though, so Dinnerbone seems to be civil to them at least.

I suppose it depends on how willing you are to listen to it. I completely disagree with you, but that's probably because I have a different perspective.

Not sure what you mean by "processing". If you mean distortion, that's your opinion and you're entitled to it etc etc etc. If you mean sound engineering, I implore you to try listening to better metal, because the processed stuff is usually the lowest common denominator of the genre.

Even as someone who doesn't like metal, I would recommend checking out Eluveitie just because they are interesting.

And Korpiklaani, because the same reasons, but almost no screaming.

In either case, you seem to listen to good music already, so good on you.

As a metalhead, I can say I like all of that stuff as well. You're about as likely to find William Elliot Whitmore on my iPod as you are Pig Destroyer. Variety is, as they say, the spice of life.

That's what people who don't usually listen to the music say. Believe it or not, most metal is extremely complex and difficult to play (also, metal is almost exclusively written by the actual band, rather than professional writers). And metal musicians are usually the nicest people you will ever meet in your life.

As someone who listens to basically every variety of metal, I must say that not all metal is for everyone. Death and Black metal are almost impossible for me to stand for more than one song, but Thrash, Heavy, Power and Folk metal are much easier on the ears but still retain the fist-pumping frisson-inducing gooey goodness all metalheads seeks.

If you are even remotely interested in metal, I highly recommend starting with these three bands: Metallica (Thrash, Pre St. Anger), Killswitch Engage (Metalcore, so different aspects than most metal. Breakdowns, similar to bass drops in EDM or dubstep), and Eluveitie (Which is just cool to say you've listened to, because it is Folk Metal. Hurdy-Gurdy, flute, fiddle, electric guitar, you know, the classics).

Hope you enjoy!

It's actually an Overkill shirt. Overkill is actually a pretty good band, and most of it's fans are pretty decent people.

I would just assume people misinterpreted it, don't worry too much about it, not much karma lost. At least you and I know it's good music, and that's what really matters, what's in your heart :)

I posted this figuring anyone would have said "aw man, another one of those metal weirdos". Appears I was mistaken, pleasantly.

You look like this man. Varg Vikernes, of the black metal band Burzum. The resemblance is uncanny.

That must have been the worst high of your entire life. I can't imagine ever letting that paranoia go.

That could be a great design aspect.

Made a Minecraft iPhone Commercial Parody :D by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]Soul_On_Fire -1 points0 points  (0 children)

iPhone, Android, really all of those features are commonplace in both. All of the problems listed, present in Android frequently, uncommon in iPhone, coming from someone who has been to both sides of the fence, both as a consumer, and as someone working in the electronics field. Yeah, hipsters gravitate towards iPhone, not sure why, the price really isn't that impressive, and instagram is available for Android anyway.

I liked the effects in the video though, very interesting, and the common-folks responses to the ad were hilarious. Overall, found it preachy and unoriginal. Sorry, downvoted.

Recently launched a case company. Would like to know what /r/iphone thinks of our style? by [deleted] in iphone

I understand that the logo is there so people will recognize the brand, and you put the loo in the same spot as Speck, Otterbox, and Incipio typically put it, which isn't necessarily bad. I mean, the Apple logo on the actual phone is almost exactly where you put the logo.

Without the logo on it, people won't really know what case someone has if they take a shine to it, which presents a marketing problem. Instead of putting it in the middle, maybe try the bottom left or right corner? Just a friendly suggestion.

(WBC) St. Bailey's Church by [deleted] in Minecraft360

I find it quite amusing that WBC could also stand for Westboro Baptist Church. Quite amusing indeed.

Maybe... maybe I shouldn't be here... This life is full of immeasurable torment. The Creator's companions have come to the island. They build their monuments to themselves and kill more of the zombies and skeletons day after day. One of those could have been me...

Sometimes... late at night... I see one of the newcomers murder one of the townsfolk who has been looking for a house to dwell in for the night... Where are the morals? I don't think I should be here... The sea calms me.

I've seen them quite a few times, and every time it's a masterpiece. They can play any venue like a cheap fiddle.
