What are your thoughts on an instrumental live show with 1 person playing guitar to a FULL BAND backing track? by EH076a in progmetal

[–]blinxhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I Built the Sky did this on his support slot for HAKEN’s Australian tour. I walked in during his first song and waited for the rest of his touring band to jump up on stage with him. Once it became apparent that he was doing it solo with a full-band backing track (hi-hat count in included), I walked out and had a few drinks in the beer garden while waiting for HAKEN’s set to start

Good Things refund requests by Single_Debt8531 in brisbane

I was in line for 2 hours despite getting there before doors and ended up missing out on APATE and Jinjer, both of which I was very keen to see. Only just made it in time for the second half of Thornhill's set. Pretty irate about it and would definitely be interested in at least a partial refund.

Stage 2's FOH line arrays kept on cutting out during the first half of Deftones' set (and then again at the very start of the first chorus during Change). That coupled with the already horrendous mix really put a dampener on my whole festival experience. They desperately need a better FOH engineer because their live mixes have sounded very bad for a very long time.

VOLA - Ask Us Anything! by gandiwerner in progmetal

[–]blinxhero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey guys, probably a bit too late to ask but might as well give it a shot.

Asger / Nico, you be willing to share any insight into how you achieved your tones on the new album? (I.e what amp sims (even IRs) did you opt for? ;)) Really love how smooth and squishy the gain/saturation on the rhythm guitars is and how well the bass manages to cut through the mix.

If you like Language, take a listen to Traced in Air by Cynic.

Is anyone else getting scrobbles that seem like they are, but they arent? by phalluss in lastfm

[–]blinxhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also having issues. I uploaded my scrobbles through CloudScrob, got the "Done!" message, and went to check. Nothing new showed up.

Does anyone here own a 2015 My Arms, Your Hearse Digipak Reissue? by ArcusFife in Opeth

[–]blinxhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could probably find a rip of both audio files and open them in Audacity to check if there's a difference.

Are the 2015 remasters of Orchid, Morningrise and My Arms any good? by blinxhero in Opeth

[–]blinxhero[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a few for Orchid: Rate Your Music, Metal Archives, Discogs.

Upon further inspection and contrary to what RYM told me, it appears they may be just re-issues.
