I'd punch you so hard if you asked me that in real life. The only time you should ask that question is if it's either free or your friend offers to have his girlfriend suck you off.

Argh, I deleted even more of my music collection. I'm a perfection whore. But why kid myself, i'm not going to have Vintersorgs discography there when I don't like it.

What you're doing with your music saddens me. You keep trimming it and trimming it rather than letting it grow and flourish like a musical garden should. You keep narrowing your mind and closing it off to other possibilities. What kind of musical life is that? Eventually, you are going to stop listening to music because you will decide that no music is worthy of your pretentious ears. You will spend your life looking for what you truly enjoy in music until the end of days. This is your fate.

It's easy to criticise. But you're not me. You want me to listen to music I don't like? It saddens me too, but it's the way I feel at the moment.

You know, it doesn't even sadden me. I know i'll find even better bands a long the way, but for now i'm sticking the best.

Maybe thats very ignorant of me. But I've only seen the term twice in my life so far and the other was yesterday maybe... recently anyway... maybe you said it. Which contradicts my first point if thats the case :(.

Don't cry ;) just listen to the following bands - I'm pretty sure you will like some of this because it's not your typical BM:

Rotting Christ - Passage to Arcturo, Thy Mighty Contract, Non Serviam, Triarchy of the Lost Lovers
Varathron - His Majesty at the Swamp, Walpurgisnacht, Lament of Gods
Agatus - Dawn of Martyrdom, Rite of Metamorphosis, The Weaving Fates
Zemial - In Monumentum, Face of the Conqueror (less Hellenic in style, still awesome Greek stuff)
Septic Flesh - Esoptron, The Ophidian Wheel (Hellenic Death Metal)
The Elysian Fields - Adelain, We...The Enlightened
Order of the Ebon Hand - The Mystic Path to the Netherworld
Deviser - Unspeakable Cults
Jackal's Truth - Promo '98

Listen to those, it will give you an idea about the Hellenic sound. Sense Offender, you listen to those as well ;)

Don't leave out Cry of Silence.

I just gave him a basic overview. The next wave of bands will come after he's addicted to the sound :P

Apart from that, Cry of Silence hasn't much to do with the Hellenic sound.

I just suggested it because of location. It's more relevant to describe more than one sound for a certain scene to me, though.

I was hinting at that specific sound created by the Greeks somewhere between 1992 - 1997. I can see where you are coming from, but I doubt that Nev will like Nargaroth-style BM more just because it's from Hellas.

On a completely different note about Greek metal, Hildr Valkyrie = fucking hot.

Hellenic

Whenever I see this word always think of this band.

And their album The Hellenic Terror.

I usually tend to keep my mouth shut when some of you come up with this "argument" about black metal. For example, I don't like most Power Metal. There are many truly absurd bands in that genre with lyrics about fairy's, rabbits and lots of men without their manhood intact. So, do I lump all of them together? No, I don't because there are bands with good lyrics, a serious approach and stellar musicianship. There are bands who stray from the common stereotype and that's why I don't run around screaming "all power metal is gay".

Now an opinion like that on power metal I can greatly respect. :)

To me, it's just another Cannibal Corpse track. Really, I think Shredded Humans is the only track worth listening to from that album. All the other tracks are just meh.

Of course they do, but most of the time, I don't give a shit and enjoy the music anyway.

Why do freshmen get sluttyer every year?

Because their vaginas are dieing for some slamming.

Gott kvöld, Comrades.
It's Kidd here.

I'm currently in Norway, vacationing, Since I have tons of family here.
Because I am older now, I got to just hang around with my nephews, rid of my family, And since one of them has a driver's license, I finally got to do what I wanted.

I went to The Coffee shop where Helvete used to be, and had a bagel, I visited Euronymous' and Dead's graves, and I did a shitload of shopping.

Only one album though, Although there is a shitload of metal in stores here, and By shitload I mean SHIT LOAD, really obscure black metal, and lots of REALLY brutal shit too.

The album I bought was Entombed's "Serpent saints- The Ten Amendments."
Finally some old school death metal.

I leave Norway in two days, back to my shitty life in my shithole of a fucking "town" .

When I Move, I've got a band that wants me to join them.
Already told you that though, No-one Cared.
I do Lead Guitar and Vocals, We're covering Spheres of Madness by Decapitated, and writing some original stuff through MSN, less death metal, more melodic, as technical, the Whole Spheres thing is just a tribute.

I am, VERY depressed, extremely,ridiculously Depressed to an extent I've never been before.
I'm not going to kill myself, I just wanted to mention how terrible I feel.

I can barely get myself to get up in the morning, I'm lying awake, sometimes in tears, every night for weeks now, I feel just broken, just devastated, I mean i've been depressed before but this time something just snapped and I can't function, I can't even TRY to get out of this depression.

I feel really hopeless, so I'm trying, Desperately to find hope, in something.

I just, Don't know.

I've deleted all of my news posts, If someone was wondering where they went, (which you weren't)

What are your reasons for being depressed Kidd? You live in an isolated town which you derive little enjoyment in, I understand that much. Also you're possessed by some dead spirit which causes you to have black outs and repressed memories, and that chick wouldn't even look at you or something because of the spirit hanging around you. Is that still happening? Also, your dreams of being a musician are hard to achieve because of your town. But that new band sounds good. Aren't you nearly old enough to move though?. What else is up man?

was that supposed to sound incredibly insulting and sarcastic? because it did.

Kidd, I'm sorry that you're feeling depressed again, I wish i know how to fix stuff like this from 3000+ miles away.

The bit about the whole 'spirit' thing made it sound a bit sarcastic, but i can respect that if its true.

Don't be depressed Kidd.

No.

The only Hardcore I like is Unearth and Demon Hunter. Maybe new In Flames, if that counts as Hardcore.

Which it does.

Oh yeah, and Kidd:
Your prospects seem positive, what's wrong?
