Abigail Williams were awesome live.
I saw them earlier this month with Goatwhore.
Best concert that cost 20 bucks in my opinion

This will probably be useful for some of you.

Earlier today, I bought a $27.50 July 19th Summer Slaughter ticket for only $10.50.

Those of you who want to get $10.50 Live Nation tickets can go here, browse for the show you want to go to (code: Subway$5tix), select it, pay via credit or debit and print out the ticket.

I don't know when this deal ends, so I'd act fast.

Well some people like long albums, some like short ones. I can deal with a short tracklist with long songs which I am okay with too.

Lucky bastard, Summer Slaughter Tour is playing here tonight.

The thing is, I have the money and the ride there but I don't have the ride back.

I'm going to have to hang out in the city till around 10 AM tomorrow if I want to go to said show.

What do you guys think? Should I go despite having to wait around ALL night in the city or should I just not go?

I've been thinking that for like over a year now. Sickest fucking kick arse lyrics, oh my god. I got my friends into Sleep with that song. Well, that and Dragonaut. But yes. Those lyrics. Been thinking the exact same thing for over a year. You bastard.

Shut the fuck up Ponos. Abigail Williams has one of the best fucking screamer of the whole fucking metal scene. Also they are the fucking best at creating a dark ambience with awesome keys and probably one of the tightest fucking drummers in the world.

So just sit back, smoke your fucking shit blunts and go listen to your stoner shit. If the guy likes Trivium, it's none of your fucking business. Just get off the back of anyone who doesn't fit your lame 80's underground shit.

Someone who likes Trivium can still have very nice tastes in music. And this guy just prooved it a few times. But since you can't read I won't ask you to understand.

It's definitely an awesome game (best game ever is a bit hard to define for me) and one of the best platformers I've played in a long time. It's so good I'll take this over Mario any day, even if the ending to Psychonauts did piss me off.

And Escape From Monkey Island was awesome.

Funny you mention that since I bought the remake last night from Steam and played it as soon as I downloaded it. Only played it for an hour and so far, I'm amazed. :)

OK, metal topic now, all except one Running Wild albums I ordered the other day (i.e. Gates to Purgatory, Branded and Exiled, Blazon Stone and Masquerade) have arrived and although they don't match the awesomeness of Pile of Skulls, I've been enjoying them quite a lot. I also got Gamma Ray's No World Order the other day which is also good.

We metalheads are supposed to be a community. And how can anyone feel at home in the Metal Hell if some of us just keep bashing on them. I do not hate is music, but I hate him cause he acts like all these assholes who call themselves "true" metalheads because they listen to the most underground ambient dark stoner/black/doom/progressive metal band and just can't stand anyone who's into anything that is somewhat popular (except for Sabbath of course... cause they are fucking kvlt !!!)

and stoner metal doesn't rule any much more than any other metal genres (except for power metal).

The thing you are not getting here is that Ponos hasn't called himself a "true metalhead" in god knows how long. He doesn't give a shit about listening to the kvltest music anymore. I mean, he has System of a Down on his top bands on last.fm (i'm not bashing SOAD or anything). Ponos is only a shadow of the elitist he once was. He's a nice guy, and his taste is great, you just refuse to let go of your memories of him when he was an elitist prick.

You can feel "at home" in the metal hell if you stop caring about people's opinions of you. Nev likes Taylor Swift, and he doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks of him. You, on the other hand, take every criticism completely personally. We've told you to stop giving a shit about Ponos tons of times, why haven't you listened to our advice? If you just stop reacting to his goadings, then we wont have to deal with this shit. And before you even say it, we don't tell him to quit because he has every right to criticize bands he doesn't like, even in his heavy-handed manner.

Secondly, knowing him, he was probably drunk or high when he posted that.

and stoner metal doesn't rule any much more than any other metal genres (except for power metal).

Opinions.

Stoner metal is my favorite genre of metal. And you called it "stoner shit," so I fail to see how you think it's on par with all other metal (unless you think all other metal is shit :P)

You should read my first post carrefuly. The real problem is that he's insulting the other guy because he's a fan of Trivium. He said that this guy couldn't judge of what a good band his because his tastes in music were crap.

So basically... your defending Ponos everytime he throws cheap insults at our newest users. I'm used to it, and I really do not care anymore, but newest users come here excepting to find a nice community of people who share a common taste in a particular genre of music and get rocks thrown at them because they say that they liked and Abigail Williams show.

Other than this, any intelligent person, would realise that Abigail Williams is a great band... no matter if you like them or not.


Secondly, knowing him, he was probably drunk or high when he posted that.

Guilty as charged.

That's not true. First of all, calling a band "great," even though you dislike them, is completely contradictory. The only people who will call a band good are the people who like them. If you hate a band with a passion, you're not going to concede that they're still a good band, because they are entirely conflicting opinions.

Also, intelligence is not related to taste. Incredibly smart people like bad music, and do not recognize good music. Incredibly stupid people like great music. You can't say that Abigail Williams is unanimously agreed to be good by intelligent people, because they're not.

So? He can't drink... so?

I... what?

I'll be the judge of that. List me your favorite Stoner bands and I shall see if I like them or not :)

You missunderstand me. You can dislike a genre of music and still realise that there is creativity, skills, great ambience and quality work in some band's music.

How can you hate Abigail Williams with passion? And leave all these "it's all about opinions" shit behind. Let's all make this clear. There is good music and there is bad music. Example k? :P
Brokencyde = horrible vocals, the guy doesn't have any kind of skills to do screams. The beats are so uninspired and uncreative... there is nothing new in their music or any kind of display of skills in what they do.
Abigail Williams = If you tell me this drummer is not a fucking skilled beast... and so fucking tight with the music... than you are fucking deaf.
I won't list all the stuff that makes them good... I think you understand my point.

What I meant is that you can dislike a band or music genre and still understand that they are very talented.


Also, intelligence is not related to taste. Incredibly smart people like bad music, and do not recognize good music. Incredibly stupid people like great music. You can't say that Abigail Williams is unanimously agreed to be good by intelligent people, because they're not.

I think intelligence is all about being open-minded. There is no close-minded genius in our world. Cause you can't be smart and refuse to try some new stuff, learn more about things you don't know. Opening yourself to music. Intelligent people will not all like Abigail Williams, cause there is a lot of people who just don't like the agressivity and heavyness of metal music. But any open-minded intelligent person would listen through their album and make their opinion afterward.

And this is what makes open-minded people... intelligent persons... because the more you open yourself to new stuff, the more you learn. The more you learn, the more you know about various stuff. And if you know a lot of things, than you make good analysis and judge of something properly.

I'll be the judge of that. List me your favorite Stoner bands and I shall see if I like them or not :)

You can hate Abigail Williams with a passion because you dislike their sound. And opinions aren't bullshit, because "good," "bad," and "talent" are all subjective terms, and therefore can't be entirely true or false. But I do get what you mean, hahaha.

This is true.

I think intelligence is all about being open-minded.

Partially, at least. I've always felt that it's the other way around; with intelligence comes open-mindedness. A stupid person would be afraid to try new things, but an intelligent person would logically realize the potential benefits and intellectual avenues that can be explored.

Ouch. I just plain can't stand shitty core music, and most metalheads agree with me on that. I fucking UNDERSTAND music, and I know what good music is (I do, Ghoul does, Dent does, Idio does, Goatchrist does...... Nev..... Maybe? Taylor Swift :S). I know the YOB album I just listened to was created by real MUSICIANS for MUSICAL LISTENING. And I know that Trivium fuck each other in the arse, eat each others shit, shit out that shit, jerk off, cum into that shit, eat it, and then release it in CD form for all shiteaters to eat.

Haha, epic.

I like, completely agree. I saw Trivium is shit, suddenly, YOU FAGGOT CUNT WANNABE FUCK. I mean, if Duff said that Carcass was shit, I'd explain to him how he was wrong. Nobody doesn't like Carcass though..... Ok, if Duff said Vintersorg was shit. He wouldn't say that, it's too obviously good.... Well, Vintersorg sounds a bit to 'weak' and 'un-metal', but it's musical very good. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is I have a brain and I can reason.

Lol, THE OBVIOUS ranking is this:

Stoner > Doom > Black > Death > Thrash > Power (Seriously, perfect.)

But stoner being a sub genre, that's not really fair, because then you'd have to include other tags like 'folk' and 'technical'. And maybe 'depressive'. Oh, and 'melodic'. Isn't it awesome how in depth metal can be? Like, fuck, Progressive Sludge Metal. WTF.

And I only have three Boris albums. I prefer their really droney stuff compared to their stonery stuff.

Dents right, with intelligence comes open mindedness, and that's something I've experienced first hand as I've grown up. And. Like. THe thing is, Abigail Williams may have a good drummer and decent guitar playing and riff writing..... But fuck, so do other bands that totally out class them. Because shitcore is shitty, and only shitty people play it.

Core is anti-music, for crying out loud.

I understand there are talented musicians in core bands. THERE ARE TALENTED MUSICIANS EVERYWHERE. THERES A LOOOOOOOOOOOT OF THEM.

Weedeater play simpler, less complex music than Abigail Williams.

THey are 30 times better.

What is starting to get on my nerves, look, I'm not going to say it. It's so important I'm going to make a second post out of it.

Response to Metal Hell 2009-07-18 18:29:28


If anyone, was going to read any one, of all my damn posts, this is the one damn post they should read.

I'm getting tired of people liking bands, just because of the technical skill the guitarist/drummer has.

It's acceptable to appreciate technical and awesome guitar work and drum work.

But MUSIC, is about the MUSIC, of the DIFFERENT instruments coming together, creating DIFFERENT SOUNDING MOODS, ATMOSPHERE, using RHYTHMS, and everything just comes together and it all sounds good. Fuck, like, my cousin has the problem real bad. He only listens to music with virtuosic guitarists. And most of it is core. I don't think he understands music. He just likes mind blowing shredding.

Weedeater don't blow me away with technical fucking solos. They just kick arse because of the whole incredibly heavy, slow, heavy, slow, doomy, blues. With awesome vocals. About weed. Sometimes. And people 'aint gonna get it. I love the blues. The blues is my music. And that's part of the reason I like stoner metal, as it's rooted in blues.

I guess when I listen to music I'm focusing on guitar shit though. I mean, I play guitar bass and drums and sing, so I think I kinda have a slight grasp on whats going on. But my music is usually guitar dominant.

The guitar is the focal point (Majority)
The bass gives it backbone (Majority)
The drums give a rhythmic effect, keeps the band in time, and isn't always as set in stone as the guitars and bass, giving it uniqueness that I really enjoy.
Singing is never constant, as it is merely present to give the music concept, thus making the music more enjoyable.

But guitars are constant, building, and the whole like. Show stealing part of heavy music. And that's weird. Perhaps one of the reasons I think Om are really really awesome.

You can hate Abigail Williams with a passion because you dislike their sound. And opinions aren't bullshit, because "good," "bad," and "talent" are all subjective terms, and therefore can't be entirely true or false. But I do get what you mean, hahaha.

I think there is a limit to subjectivity.

Let's take an example. I would like to proove my point to you. So I start a shitty musical project. I rip some riff off other artists. I take basic rock drum lines. Cheap repetitive bass lines and write poor lyrics. Just remember that I'm doing this all on purpose ok.
But just imagine that some kid would start liking it. Would my music become good?


I think intelligence is all about being open-minded.
Partially, at least. I've always felt that it's the other way around; with intelligence comes open-mindedness. A stupid person would be afraid to try new things, but an intelligent person would logically realize the potential benefits and intellectual avenues that can be explored.

It think it works both ways. With intelligence you open your mind. And as you open your mind you learn more and make a good use of your intelligence.

Ugh.

Again?

Guys, far be it from me to rebuke people engaged in arguments I'm not involved in, but you're being fucking stupid.

Again.
