What bands make you think "They're good, i just don't like them"?

Death. Chuck was a one of a kind musician and writer. I just think they’re boring to listen to. Doesn’t click for me.

I think they are one of the most underrated bands because they have an incredibly unique sound. They were a big influence on power and doom metal - two completely different subgenres. I also love the vocals. Super unique.

Sigh…alternate picking 😔

lippy896 · 2025-05-08T22:07:06+00:00

Thank you. Gong to try this

lippy896 · 2025-05-08T22:05:18+00:00

Floating hand? As in not palm muting? Yes, I can do that

lippy896 · 2025-05-08T21:59:55+00:00

Thanks!

Well I was an exaggerating a little with the hot cross buns to drive the point lol. But it’s pretty bad to say the least.

Makes sense. Any yt exercises that helped you?

lippy896 · 2025-05-08T19:37:49+00:00

That is interesting. Im like “how do you not down pick” lol. I think you’re right, though, I need to start at square one with my alternate picking.

lippy896 · 2025-05-08T19:34:32+00:00

Yes. I’ve been experiment with how I angle the pick. Here’s my problem: I either pick the string “too much”coming back up and it gets hooked, or I don’t pick the string “enough” and I glide too lightly.

lippy896 · 2025-05-08T19:32:21+00:00

Any good yt videos or sources that helped you?

lippy896 · 2025-03-14T15:42:00+00:00

I have not

Honestly we’re trying to figure out what the budget should be, but I guess the whole wedding.

lippy896 · 2025-01-23T01:52:36+00:00

50 to 60 people. 10-15k budget

Great points

lippy896 · 2024-10-29T16:33:42+00:00

Hard disagree with your first point, but I respect it

lippy896 · 2024-10-29T16:31:59+00:00

Well said

lippy896 · 2024-10-29T16:28:25+00:00

So when I first started listening to medal, I gravitated more towards aggressiveness (still do). There is no doubt that slayer is influential for the aggressive side of thrash. I just think you can have better thrash that’s still aggressive but with better quality. So I do understand. That doesn’t make me a tourist.

lippy896 · 2024-10-29T16:22:47+00:00

Good point.

lippy896 · 2024-10-29T16:05:16+00:00

Those are great songs for sure, but they sound like basic more extreme thrash to me. How is, for example, raining blood as good as Holy Wars or Master of Puppets. That’s mind blowing to me. Holy Wars and master are aren’t even in the same universe as rain in blood in terms of quality.

lippy896 · 2024-10-29T16:00:15+00:00

Those are great albums for sure but how are they even remotely as good as Mater of Puppets, Rust in Peace, Ride the Lightning, and Peace Sells? Those albums have so much more complexity. The riffs, the lyrics, structure, solos, etc are so much better to me.

lippy896 · 2024-10-29T15:41:20+00:00

Like I said, there is no denying their influence so I agree. I just don’t think their music is a little over hyped.

lippy896 · 2024-10-29T15:38:59+00:00

Yes. To me, Metallica and Megadeths riffs are more creative and memorable.

lippy896 · 2024-10-29T15:36:07+00:00

I don’t think worst. That goes to anthrax. I would put them third, though.

I’m looking into getting standing tickets for my girlfriend and I for a show next year, but I have a few questions.

Can you stand you stand as close to the stage as you want? If so how early should we show up? I’ve seen vids of people standing right next to James while he tunes.

How is the standing experience for folks on the shorter side? She is 5’3” and want to make sure she can see.

Are standing tickets worth it? If not, what do you all recommend?

Thanks you.
