I miss not being able to play Oblivion because have no idea how to install my new GFX >:(. When I put it in it makes a horrible screeching sound (thats what she said), I don't know if its not compatible (it should be, it fits and stuff... maybe needs more power or maybe the adaptor I bought was broken).
Yeah annoying. Morrowind is sweet though.

So guys im thinking about learning to play Bass, guitar doesnt really interest me. anyone else play im probably not gona start until i have a place of my own (hopefully late this year/early next year)

i tried once, but i'm more of a woodwind guy. plus, i was in eighth grade and unmotivated. and my dad is a fantastic bass player and I felt really self conscious practicing around him.

most basslines aren't really all that difficult though, and the bass is an easy instrument to get a sound of. if you want to be a virtuoso, get practicing.

I've played bass as a secondary thing to guitar for 4 years.
Its easy to learn, hard to master as they say.

If you're going to learn, make sure you take lessons from a jazz guy or something. Don't try learning on your own despite how wonderfully easy it seems. Trust me on this.

Also, I don't want to see any more bitching about what we consider and do not consider metal. If you fucking question it again, there will be consequences. We're here to talk about METAL. Those who want to talk about METALCORE go to the Nu-Metal/Metalcore Crew. It exists, trust me.

But you can't diss Megadeth and Metallica, these are awesome band... the first to ever play this sub-genre.

I feel kind of ashamed that I didn't mention Megadeth there, or Tankard. :(

But are you sure you want to stick by your suggestion that Metallica originated thrash metal? Are you sure about that?

not really started it, but they were in the first bands to play that kind of music, and they really did innovate in the genre.

That'll probably be me? But you see, the problem with this metal hell is that everyone in here is an egoistical faggot who thinks his own music is SO much better than the other people's. You may listen to the most obscure black metal band from fucking South America or whatever, but if on entry you list one metalcore band (EVEN fucking metalcore, which I still don't see why it's bad) you're a fucking moron and you lose your voice here.

No, I'll respect you, as I am a metalcore fan two...
but as they said, don't take it all too seriously.
But it is true that its a problem in here, maybe everyone should consider that their music isn't the only good music that exists.

I'm just the way I am, if someone states that something is shit, he should explain why... or maybe just shut the fuck... If your not willing to discuss a subject, just don't throw a fucking "this band is shit" post... just to annoy fans of this band.

And for all the metalcore argueing... Trivium really isn't the band that I would take to represent the whole genre, thank you... they really aren't special in anyway, even if I do like to listen to Like Light To The Flies sometimes... probably cause of this movie : .Smokin' Aces

They are as Metal as Deathcore can be, even if you do not like them.

and I'm starting to understand why you guys says metalcore sucks... seing all the shit music that falls under this sub-genre...

It's just hitting you now?

At 1/30/09 09:55 PM, HeavenDuff wrote: I dare you to say they are bad.

All That Remains suck. And it has nothing to do with how metal they are (they aren't deathcore, they're just metalcore). I have a lot of gripes about All that Remains, but I'll just list a few.

1. The harsh vocals are terrible. In the song I am listening to right now (thats right, i interrupted Dark Forest SPECIFICALLY for the sake of this argument. also, listen to dark forest). I don't know how to describe vocals in ways other people would understand (I have synesthesia and sounds have shape, texture, and color in my mind's eye), but here's my attempt. Rather that hitting the note with a strong attack, the vocalist leans into it; something every music teacher I've ever had has instructed me not to do. Why? because it sounds bad. Rather than a yell or a word having a structure like WWWWwwrah!, the vocalist goes wwwWRAH! Notes should be hit like a bell tone; strong attack, with fade. He sings backwards. Plus, I hate metalcore vocals anyways. They're like in this awkward prepubescent stage where they aren't sure whether they want to be death growls, black metal screeches, or nu-metal grunts. The screams are pitiful, they lack intensity. Rather than having something raw, brutal, and angry, we're treated to something forced, overly produced, and stripped of all emotional integrity. This brings me to my next point; all the vocals are all over the place. A line will be grunted, the next will be screamed, then we're treated to some clean vocals. Ah, the clean vocals.

Standard whiny, pseudo-melodic -core backups and counter-melodies. Everyone knows what I'm talking about when I say this. Super streamlined notes, and the melodies meld together like cheese in a warm pot. I can't tell one song from the next based on the clean vocals; this is a bad thing. Major parts of song structure should be different from the next. Alright, this song here, "This Calling," has this clean vocal melody that could seriously be from a Top 40 pop ballad. Or a Linkin Park song. I'm not sure which is worse. It comes in at just about the :30 second melody if you want to see what i mean.

Ah, and on to the production, and, by extension, the post-production. The production is cold. Lifeless. Clean, sterile, impotent, what-have-you, anything will fit. The guitars are distorted but there's no crunch. The drums do that thing where they seem to subdivide sustained guitar chords that they play behind because all the instruments are completely in their own little bubbles. Metal should be a sort of deal where you go into the studio, bang out some songs, and hope that they sound like you when you play live. Not something where you and some douchebag producer twiddle away at knobs until you sound just the way you want to.

Post-production; too many effects. See above statement on how you should sound live. Which means fuck post-production effects, it sounds like shit.

and I'm starting to understand why you guys says metalcore sucks... seing all the shit music that falls under this sub-genre...

And since just about every band sounds alike to us, we think it's all shit.

Mmm, Oblivion, I just got that for my 360. My computer isn't built to really play any games, sadly.

I see you chose my reccomendation, Oblivion kicks ass. One of my favorite 360 games.

So yeah... I saw DF yesterday (haven't slept since but whatever, it's a long story) and you probably don't care but I'm going to tell you this anyway. The band itself is fucking awesome, but the crowd was fucking shit. There were like 400 people, maybe 500, but the problem was that apparently 90% of them were fucking Guitar Hero nerds who should totally learn2metal.

Me and my friend started all 3 of the mosh pits that evening (that's right, only 3). We're not supposed to be the cool kids. Anyway, for Through The Fire And Flames (last song), the singer was like "okay, form two groups, one on the left, one on the right!" and we were like "FUCKING FINALLY, A WALL OF DEATH" and we start pushing people back like everyone should do. But no. The people stood 1 meter apart, and all the singer wanted was to make them sing the loudest. Fuck that. Me and my friend DID a wall of death, which twice (because they stopped playing for the dramatic effect just when we ran) resulted in slamming my elbow in some faggot's face, but that's okay because he wasn't participating.

All in all it was awesome because I stole Herman Li's beer bottle and I talked to him (lol he's Chinese).

Sweet, glad you had a good time, despite those Guitar Hero nerds. XP

Listening to Ensiferum - Warrior's Quest. I keep forgetting to do this. Oh well.

HeavenDuff seems to have found this already, but just to clear things up for everybody:

Discuss METAL here.

Discuss NU-METAL/METALCORE/HARDCORE/CORECORE here.

I'm going to spell this all out for you Duffy mate.

Lol, duffy, duffeknol

I know what I'm fucking talking about. Heaps of people in this club know what we're talking about. We've been here for years fucking learning and talking about shit. I love these guys. I love Nev. I love Bahamut. I love Idio, I love TakeNoPrisoners and I love mrdurgan and fucking hell, Goatse is never around, Ghoul left, Bruce I didn't really know, whatever. We know our fucking shit. For real reals.

Not for play plays.

1. I'm not some ambient black metal basement dweller. I've been a fan of metal for a fucking while. I know posers when I see them. Metallica's first three albums have nothing wrong with them. Megadeth are a great band. Black metal can be extremely shit. If you do it right it's art. And don't you dare fucking try to say the same about metalcore, because that's the furthest thing from art there is.

Metalcore is scene teen pop garbage created by shoe size I.Q.'s for jumping up and down to and to make money. There is no art. There is nothing worth fucking while at all in that fucking shit. Fuck.

Remember, I know what I'm fucking talking about.

2. Gothenburg fucking sucks. Melogay is wrong. They fucking took, (I'm getting a bit angry now.) a brilliant emerging genre of metal that was revolutionary and fucking amazing, AND RAPED IT WITH MAINSTREAM SELL-OUTNESS. FUCK. There is nothing metal, br00tal or true about At The Gates. Except their first two albums, but they weren't gems. The first one was pretty cool though.

Ok, I've calmed down.

3. Death Magnetic was bad. I know my shit.

4. Listen to us. Listen to me. Listen to Nev. Listen to fucking all the people here. We know our shit. Oppugnant knows his fucking shit. Charon knows his fucking shit. Dent is the man. Sensey is pretty much the boss, and rightfully so.

You HeavenDuff, were here a long time ago. I fucking remember because I've been here a while too. You don't act like it. You act like a little 12 year old girl. You've got shit to fucking learn. You say you think you're a real metalhead? Maybe a commercial sort of metalhead. Maybe an annoying fucking metalhead.

You're alright man. You're fucking cool. Just. Shut the fuck up.

God. Time to take my medication.
