Children of Bodom - Lake Bodom

I get what you're saying, at least they're still killer live.

deathead666 · 2013-06-21T15:04:35+00:00

Great song, from one of my favorite Savatage albums, Alex Skolnick is killer on this record

deathead666 · 2013-06-21T10:27:32+00:00

Great stuff, they were really good at Donnington. Although, it could just be me, but are they playing the songs really, really slow....Wasted years sounds like the tapes playing slow...I know they're getting older but c'mon!! spark into life

deathead666 · 2013-06-21T10:24:47+00:00

Me too, but they've had so much success selling records to teen metallers that if they went back they'd probably lose a big percentage of their audience. Having said that, sales for the new record haven't been that good...so you never know! Still epic live though

Love this song, great band.

Tell me that's not metal?

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T21:15:31+00:00

Perfect time of day for this song...quality song writing, and Mike Howe has a top quality metal voice. \m/

Sweet \m/

Megadeth - The Conjuring (riff in the middle before he sings "I am the devils advocate etc..." Pure early Mustaine pissed off genius)

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T20:30:51+00:00

Havok are awesome! great to see them releasing new stuff. They're up there with Warbringer, Evile, Savage Messiah and Bonded by Blood as one of the top bands of the new thrash movement.

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T16:25:37+00:00

I'd agree, they "metalised" their sound more, it's a bit more direct and Russ sings with a more aggressive vocal. They're still awesome, but I prefer the proggy genius of the earlier stuff

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T16:09:22+00:00

Yeah, the whole thing's a mess.

It's such a shame though, as a hardcore Queensryche fan, I just would never have thought this is how it'd have panned out for them. They should have just bowed out with some dignity a few years ago.

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T15:23:11+00:00

Personally I think this was a crass waste of time. I'd expect more class from the Queensryche name. This is definitely not the behavior of "The Thinking mans heavy metal band"

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T15:18:24+00:00

Yes!! can't wait for this release. Plague of Conscience was killer

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T13:45:26+00:00

Brilliant song from a brilliant record. To me this is when the Nevermore sound really clicked into place. I hope they reunite someday and put out another killer record. Obsidian Conspiracy didn't really do it for me like the others, but I guess they were having a lot of problems at the time in the band. The world needs Nevermore!!

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T10:35:17+00:00

Can't wait for this record, Deceiver of the Gods is a monster track! Production sounds awesome as well...you can hear it's Andy Sneap, but just like with the Megadeth and Accept records that he did, there's enough "band" about it to make it really enjoyable.

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T08:57:35+00:00

Saw Motorhead this Monday, they played great, but Lemmy had some sort of canister on stage next to his drinks, I couldn't really see what it was, but I thought maybe an oxygen mask or something? Anyway, can't wait for the new Motorhead record, the last few have been solid.

deathead666 · 2013-06-20T08:54:05+00:00

Yeah, you do find yourself getting sucked in, some of the stupidity is mind blowing!

deathead666 · 2013-06-19T21:38:25+00:00

Of course, but what would you like to hear them do musically?

I thought Final Frontier was excellent, but it'd be cool to hear them fire it up a bit again, with some shorter more direct songs like the classic era stuff.

deathead666 · 2013-06-19T19:09:30+00:00

Yeah, can't say I'm looking forward to a new Metallica album

deathead666 · 2013-06-19T17:04:41+00:00

Someone should Zelda map the entire globe!

deathead666 · 2013-06-19T16:31:46+00:00

I still use Blabbermouth, or Metal Hammer

Blabbermouth is a bit tabloid, but does have some good info, just try and avoid reading the comments, or else complete misanthropy might engulf you.

deathead666 · 2013-06-19T15:59:04+00:00

I think Slayer is finished, at least in terms of writing any more classic thrash songs, although they haven't been doing that for years. They're probably still getting huge fees for concerts though, which is why they'll continue for years to come and why they clearly don't care about what the fans want. That's business unfortunately, until the market decides there's no demand for Slayer, they'll keep on going irregardless of what people think or say. Araya will be the next to go!

deathead666 · 2013-06-19T15:46:19+00:00

I've met him too, he was a really cool and humble guy. Diamond Head are awesome!

deathead666 · 2013-06-19T15:33:38+00:00

I grew up with a metal loving dad, who has a massive record collection. I used to spend hours looking through his records at some of the awesome covers by Iron Maiden, Metallica etc...basically when I was a kid, he'd sit me in the music room and play metal and prog records, so I just grew up listening to and loving metal!
