Yeah, my friend told me about that today.

I wonder how he died?

I heard that it was a blood clot. Killed by sitting down for too long on the tour bus.

I just discovered Folkearth! as Nev says I quote "JIZZ EVERYWHERE!!!"

Folkearth-Naglfar sets sail.

I originally found them ages ago on wikipedia, when I was searching for celtic folk metal bands like Mael Mordha and Aes Dana. I didn't check out Slough Feg for whatever reason, and later I heard good things and finally got around to getting Traveller.

Devin Townsend's new song premiere.

It's called "Addicted". Listen to it, peeps.

I just listened to a song by Slough Feg, the vocals made me vomit. Folk metal is fucking horrible.

Anyway, somebody recommend me some Death/Thrash metal bands. I need something new to listen to.

First of all, the vocals are great. Second of all, they're not folk metal. And lastly, no it isn't, fuck you.

Good day.

Phlebotomized. "experimental death metal". listen.

The new Devin song isn't bad.

But fuck, I thought Belphegor were good, not this shit.

Where are the riffs? Pretty shitty vocals. And my lord, what a shit video.

I thought Belphegor were meant to be awesome? I was going to get some of their stuff but now I'm reluctant.

Belphegor is pretty awesome but holy shit what happened here? The first song i heard by them was hells ambassador and it was so bad ass, but this just fucking blows. How could this have happened!!!!!!?

At 10/7/09 12:35 AM, tom5coat wrote: How could this have happened!!!!!!?

Because they're on Nuclear Blast.

here are a couple riffs i was sorta messing with today, thinking about writing a new song, might use these. tell me how you like them.

if they suck please tell me they suck so i dont use them :)

Do record labels really effect the music of a band?

Yeah, luckily the sound quality of the mic was off so the clean vocals sounded like death vocals and the death vocals sounded like gutturals. (Although I know neither were the case)

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU - Was never really that big of a fan of Evile, that sucks anyway though.

Do you think they'll disband or just go on a hiatus for a while till they recover + get a new member? Again, i'm not big of a fan so I wouldn't know how this would effect the band.

Either a band goes through several bass players (such as Metallica, Black Label Society and Meshuggah) or the sole line-up change in the band is the bass player (Tool and now Evile). Note that I'm referring to members who are soley the bassist, not the bassist/vocalist.

Because generally speaking, in comparison to the other instruments(Lead Guitar, Rhythm Guitar, Drums, Keyboards and Vocals) the Bass is the least important so nobody cares about taking good care of their bassist unless he is jizztastically good.

Go listen to some Cock And Ball Torture and shove it up your ass.

Folk metal is fucking horrible.

Judging a genre by one band....guys, it works!

All power metal is just jizzing with guitars and special effects with cheesy lyrics about nothing really, I.E. Dragonforce

All thrash Metal songs are 3 minutes long, have a speedy fast guitar solo even when unnecessary and all sound exactly the same I.E. Slayer.

Need I continue with other genres?

Suck a dick.

*And I haven't even listened to Slough Feg*

I like em, sounds like a great riff to intro a thrash metal song with and then mix in with the rest of the song at certain points, sort of like(Style, not the riffs) how the introing part of this song isn't going on during the lyrics and solos and whatnot.

Also, the tank in the background of that was mega kickass.

That's a really dissapointing release for Belphegor, all their previous albums have been great, loved them all, now this...

It make me think of Rammstien crossed fused with black metal, minus the electronic sounds ._.

I can hear how that would work in a thrash song, and since I can come up with pretty good thrash riffs easily, Thomas, it is your sworn task to teach me that and then I shall make it thrashy if you wish.

tom is the vocalist in my band and we've known each other for 14 years

Guy's it's okay!

I *acquired* the whole album and listened to it.

It's a lot like Pestapokalypse IV... which is a good thing IMO.

So now you should all listen to this album.

Oh ok. Judging an album by one song doesn't work all the time.

So lol, I was drinking beer at a pub today. What a great country we live in :P

I spent today and yesterday learning how to play Space Dye Vest on piano. I can now play the whole song and sing it at the same time, I'm pretty proud :D

I never listened to Evile. Modern thrash usually makes me want to GTFO.

JESUS ON THE DASHBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOARD OH YEAH

This live version of Spacegrass from Pure Rock Fury is fucking sweet Idio.

Oh fucking lame, it starts playing Escape from the Prison Planet and then fades out.

Gay.

Of course.
Big labels need to get a return, they put money in, they want it back and MOAAR! So they make the band make the music more accessible.

Look at Dream Theater. They're not doing anything new or interesting for ages.

Bass really isn't. Take bass out of a song and it sounds turd. Bass is like the core.
Keyboards are way less important.

And lead guitar to some extent.
