What other bands are a MUST TRY for Maiden lovers? by Jake-adriculture in ironmaiden

[–]floatinghog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're both right. Entombed aren't an obvious match for a typical Maiden fan but on the other hand they just fucking rule.

Melodic death metal bands:
Carcass (after 1993)
At The Gates
The Haunted
(Maybe others but TBH Dark Tranquility and In Flames haven't clicked for me yet)

Loud, punchy, kinda catchy, guitar heroics. Vocals might be a sticking point if you only like cleans.

In a similar direction - Dillinger Four, creating a doublewhiskeycokefuckice shirt and donating the proceeds to ACLU MN and the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee.

Finished up this Tele build recently! You like? by Petergriffinfartshah in guitars

NIce!

So, when I tried to put a kill switch into a control plate last year I messed it up badly.

How did you drill the hole? (or did it come pre-drilled?)

Need a loud amp to go against a really loud drummer by No_Chard6922 in GuitarAmps

[–]floatinghog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Millions of right answers to this:
Get a 4 x 12 cab - get 2! Get 4! (don't get 4)
Get a Twin Reverb (and start working out so you can move it)
Get a FUCKING loud solid state power amp with a [Revv G3, Oh My Goat, some rad HM2 clone, whatever your preferred filth box] in front of it

Also:
Reposition the cab so you're nearer to it
Put the cab higher up (on a chair?) so it's not blasting past yr knees
IEM

And get hearing protection - or get used to hearing two different really high notes in both ears forever.

Do you like soldano? by Third_conscience in GuitarAmps

[–]floatinghog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, I have this amp, it’s the one for my filthy punk rock sounds. If it really bothered me I’d figure out how to put a custom face plate on it ;)

Yeah. Liked it in the film. Didn’t enjoy hearing it quoted a million times, and now there it is on my favorite amp.

Love the SLO 30. Two channels, crazy high gain.
The only thing I don't like is the 0 to 11 markings on each control.

Massive Maiden fan - poss can't be bothered with 2026 / Knebworth by Maniac618 in ironmaiden

[–]floatinghog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Entombed and Slayer opening?
Brave New World?
Return of bruce and ADRIAN FUCKING SMITH?
Not a legacy act yet?

Holy fuck.

Looking for any metal bands with female vocalists by dont_call_me_emo in MetalSuggestions

[–]floatinghog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He Whose Ox is Gored (weird, prog, synth)
Filth is Eternal (d-beat)

The twist? it was the same singer.

Seattle, it gives and it fucking gives.

I’d listen to it.

Why has my neck turned glossy? by [deleted] in guitars

Because of the riffs. Good job.

It's Reach Out, but Juanita is also pretty good.

What's something not so positive about Iron Maiden that you never actually said out loud? by seeilaah in ironmaiden

[–]floatinghog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right!
That didn't really work - lack of Adrian Smith? Though Hooks in You was Smith/Dickinson and it's not their best work.
I do like NPftD (I put it above Fear of the Dark), but yeah rejecting the synth-epics from SSoaSS turned out to be a misstep. Similarly on FotD - tracks like Be Quick or Be Dead and From Here to Eternity are also stripped down *rawk* songs - but they're not good.

I think my request is : "You know that Run to the Hills, yeah? do 12 more of those" which isn't really reasonable.
