Amazing pit and wall of headbanging people throughout our whole performance, We have a jazzy/Funky part in our song called "It" and people danced then, the singer went out into the crowd and Danced with a buddy of ours.

We have a thing we call "The Coffee Break" where we do this hilarious thing, We have this Slow part, Could call it a Breakdown, But it isn't just an open string and gayness, It's Just Heavy Riffage with a pause in the middle, For the first pause, we made it really long, like 15 seconds, And I lit a Cigarette.and the drummer had a drink and the rest had some twix.

'Twas hilarious, like this.
DUN- *yum yum twix, I love the taste it's so chocolaty*....DURURURUDUN! DUN-WEEEE

DAMNATIO, MEMORIAE, I CRUSH THY NAME
SO, IT SHALL NOT BE, SPOKEN AGAIN!
AND NOW THY DOINGS, THEY SHALL BE
FORGOTTEN IN ETERNITY!

It's Pretty brutal.
I can get pictures, But I don't know of anyone that shot any footage, I'm looking for people.

Dude, I think that album is pretty hip-hoppy for rock. Just what I saw. The vocals are kinda rappy.

Since you only have the self titled, they're a little more raw on that record. On Subsequent records Neil Fallon's voice has become more bluesy.

That's good, I'm a very bluesy guy. Which is why when I meet totally modern deathcore metalheads I'm like, ugh fuck that. This one guy I met today was like "Megadeth are shit". How should I feel about that?

I just did a sing along before! Cathedral style.

So, that was the first time I listened to Stratovarious. Doesn't sound like I'm missing much. Pretty tame unoriginal lulzimgud tradishizzle. The Lord Weird Slough Feg is a lot better.

At 2/1/09 08:40 PM, SpeedMetalSandwich wrote: So i finally went and checked out Dream Theater after listening to a few songs, and after putting off for quite a while. I picked up the greatest hits album for $12 down from $30, and i must say im enjoying it. Im more into the heavier side of things for them though, so which album of theirs should i get next?

First of all you should burn the Greatest Hits because its gay and wrong.
Then buy Images and Words, Awake, A Change of Seasons and Metropolis, Pt. II: Scenes from a Memory.
If you like them get Octavarium. If you want to get more Dream Theater then you can, but things go down hill from there... except maybe Six Degrees, that alright but its more personal preference. I dislike it, Bahamut likes it. Swings and roundabouts.

But yeah, get Images, Awake and ACoS especially. Get them now in fact. Don't listen to Ponos he just listens to Black Metal all the time :P.

anyone else here an amorphis fan, ive been really enjoying them recently (had them for awhile and kinda went off them) the album that sits as my favourite is Eclipse, so heres some youtube vids for ya

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tb2gjwq1W Xg slient waters

maybe not quite to everyones taste but i feel they should atleast be looked at :P and one thing looking at the vids they do seem to be one of the least energetic bands... ever

I was linked to some songs yesterday and wasn't overly impressed. I thought the lead guitar sounds were fairly poor and the vocals didn't do anything for me.
To me they're one of those bands like Anathema that try and do too much with something that doesn't need it.

Electric Wizard is teh trve and kvlt.

And guys! Look at Leo Smee's fancy pants please!

In some cases, I don't want to listen to generic stuff. I wish to hear stuff that's different to the rest and as far as metal goes, that mostly applies to death and black metal.

The latest discovery of mine is Alice in Chains after listening to which songs the Doom soundtracks covered.

...Wait, Metal-Archives accepts Alice in Chains as metal? Didn't think they would.

I'm glad you're into Slough Feg, Traveller is one of my most favorite albums. Summoning and Slough Feg are battling it out for the #8 spot on my last.fm haha

I might have to check out Summoning after all. Seeing how Tolkien tends to give me a boner.

Acid Bath - Jezebel (When the Kite String Pops)

You're in for a treat. I have Dol Goldur, Nightshade Forests, Oath Bound, and Minas Morgul. Dol Goldur is my favorite right now, but Oath Bound is really sick too.

They're good. I have all of their stuff. You should also give Raventhrone a listen.

I love the vocals and drums in the way of all flesh in the new gojira album, last track. It's very sexy.

Good black metal band, Cult of Daath - listen.
