I'm in my fourth year of Latin. We just translated the Narcissus myth, and we are working mostly on mythology. I just hate how the verb can for a noun can be like 3 or 4 lines down from the noun. Confuses me so much.

Dancing Mad, do it! I haven't heard that Agalloch song and should hear more by them which is why I'm going to ask the Metal Hell this right now:

Ok, I decided to go with Dancing Mad simply cuz I had more ideas for it. But the Agalloch song is a quality song.

Best Agalloch album to start with. Which one do you think? I'm considering putting one of their albums on my Christmas wishlist.

The Mantle. Easily Agalloch's best album. So atmospheric and badass.

Also, I picked up Absu's new album. Fav black metal album of the year, and a solid contender for Top 5 albums of the year. Superb blackened thrash metal.

Oh yes, they apparently decide to have the adjective right next to the noun, but not the verb. Also seeing as how you have more years under your belt, what did I say? I think something in there is wrong.

Is this true ??
Because I find it hard to believe when its a character from a metal band that die , sometime it just for the money or the show they say that and 1 months later we found out its not true.

Remember Jackass Steve-o and the Midget , they were always saying there were dead and they were not.

If its true I find it quite disturbing that they dont say now what the cause of death is ...
Surely overdose , its common in metal bands lol

To start with? Meaning you never listenned to them? I'd be surprised if it was the case. You've been around this place for much longer than me, and we've discussed them at least 50 times since I joinned. How could you possibly resist giving them a try ?

Anyway. Personnal favorites for me... Ashes Against The Grain wins because of the album's personnality, great atmosphere, the production. I just love the way they play heavy and soft music at the same time on this album. I like how well the chords sound and how weel the leads fit with them. Plus, the drumming on this one is one of my favorite in all drumming history... simple, yet very effective :)

Second favorite will have to be Pale Folklore. It's an amazing album. I find it to be somewhat reminiscent of Ulver's Bergtatt... which is cool! Good production on this one two. It's also a unique album :) Nothing like AATG, but still retains the Agalloch's personnality :)

On another note, Duff, considering how much you oppose 0% reviews that have the slightest compliment, I'm wondering which albums you would define 100%.

Not really that I oppose 0% reviews. But 0% reviews kind of make me wonder why you could want to write a review for the album in the first place. Except if we are talking about bands that you used to love but who released shitty stuff later, like Metallica... or if you hate an album so much it makes your ear bleeds... I can't see what would be a good reason to write a review for the album.

And yes, I think reviews with a 0% with positive elements in the review are dumb and incoherent.

I'm not quite sure which albums I would rate 100% though. I think Ashes Against The Grain would be one. I think I would give Ulver's Perdition City a 100%.

Images And Words by Dream Theater would most obviously be on my list. This album has anything a goood progressive metal album needs. Great riff, fantastic sound production, a great vocalist, great melodic and sometimes more technical guitar, an awesome bass line, greatest keys in history of prog. I dare anyone to say Metropolis Part 1 and Learning To Live aren't prog masterpieces !

For an album to get a 100% score from me it has to be not only one of my personnal favorites (subjective), but it needs to have no obvious flaws, perfect song-writting, and perfect musicianship. The finalt product must sound like this is exactly what the musicians tried to do, and that they achieved it (aka Images And Words or Ashes Against The Grain). There must be uniqueness and personnality in the music, and most important, each and every single track must be a five-star track for me.

Then there are albums I would rate a little lower:

Electric Wizard - Dopethrone (95%)
Bongripper - Satan Worshipping Doom (95%)
Blood Red Throne - Altered Genesis (95%)
Agalloch - Pale Folklore (95%)
Blotted Science - The Machinations Of Dementia (95%)

These are some of the albums I would consider almost perfect (or flawed masterpieces). Dopethrone and Satan Worshipping Doom are perfect on every aspect in my eyes, except some of the songs are not quite on par with the best songs from the album.

Altered Genesis, I hate the stupid "We make people suffer!" and "Blood and gore is fucking great!" attitude of most Death Metal bands. I think it's moronic and makes the whole genre look bad. Nothing against some violent lyrics, violent themes, but these guys seem to like to push it too far all the time. Plus, the intro track is just random noise of people screaming... Nothing wrong with concept albums. But this is not a concept album... This piece is useless in the whole mix.

Pale Folklore and The Machinations Of Dementia. For these ones... I don't know. I can't say there is anything missing or that they lack anything or are flawed in anyway. Not much rationnal arguments at this point. The few points taken (or given to those that got 100%) is only for how much I PERSONNALY like the album.

Loving the feedback for the Agalloch albums. Hopefully a few more can post some recommendations.

I've been hearing good things about it. I may not be hugely into black metal but I did listen to Blut Aus Nord's 777 - Sect(s) album and really liked it. Here's hoping the other two albums to follow it will be just as good, if not, better.

Yeah, you'd think everyone here would have heard them ten times over by now but not me. :P However, this Christmas shall correct that. A few other bands I've considered getting albums for Christmas are Enslaved, Orphaned Land and Saint Vitus. Thanks for the recommendations. :)

Now that sounds more like it. There are albums I really like that may have a weak track so it wouldn't be a 100% score for me. If there's one album that strikes out as having all unique tracks, it's Candlemass' Epicus Doomicus Metallicus. That's why Nightfall feels like a step down to me. The interlude tracks feel unnecessary and don't shine as well as the big doom crushers on the album.

Out of everything I know you enjoy, I would have thought Blotted Science would be at the very top.

Yeah, I caught this news last night. Sucks to hear this happened. :(

Just heard about some atmospheric/folk band named Negura Bunget. Was just about ready to blow my brains out once I heard their genre and what people said about them, but after listening they actually seem pretty good so far. They don't just abuse the same structure for every song. Worth checking out I'd say.

Dude, Negura Bunget is fantastic. I recommend Om and N' Crugu Bradului. After that, Inarborat Kosmos. I've had Virstele Pamintului for a while, but I don't remember it much. I should listen to it again.

Have you listened to Blut Aus Nord? Ultima Thulee is really good, and so are Memoria Vetusta 1 and 2.

Also, did you check out Klabautamann?

It is in fact. 95% is not far from a perfect score. Maybe I should give it a 100%... I really don't know why I didn't give it a 95% actually. Only thing that comes to my mind right now, is that I might have listenned to the album way too much to enjoy it as much as I used to.

Or maybe some of the last tracks on the album don't stand out as much as the others, that might be why I don't give it a perfect rating.

Have not listened to Blut or Klabautamann yet, recommended music usually ends piled up on a list and listened to all at once. Before that I need to fix my computer, I'm typing this on my PS3 for now.

That's actually a Portal song, not a Cynic song. Cosmos, The Circle's Gone and Endless Endeavors are all Portal songs only featured on the expanded re-release of Focus just so... I don't know actually, just so it made the CD longer. But Portal's lineup was mainly the Cynic lineup anyway, so it doesn't matter.

Speaking of Cynic though, i'm seeing them along with Scale The Summit and some "3" band that i've never heard of all on monday. :D

Anyone listen to the new Cynic ep yet? It was leaked. I think it's great, but I feel like Paul looked at the success of Foster The People and really let that influence the new songs WAY too much. haha

I'm gonna see Black Tusk and Thou on Monday. I'm getting a free ticket from my friend whose band is playing that night. His band is awesome, by the way. If I can find their site or Youtube page, I'll post it. They're not metal, but they're sick. They play really groovy instrumental progressive rock. A rock band called MonstrO is playing as well. Their guitarist used to be in Torche and their drummer was on the Danzig album, Circle of Snakes. I checked them out on Youtube, and they're pretty good. And some band called Antidote 8 just signed on at the last minute. I just briefly listened to them on Youtube and their singer is not good. The guitarist sure can play, though.

Of course. Foster The People are cool, and Cynic is always great.

One thing I will say though, is that this is the first time the vocals have ever been 100% unedited in Cynic's music. Kind of odd listening to paul without SOMETHING going on, edit wise, with his voice. haha

I finally got to see Manowar live tonight and while it was an enjoyable show for the most part considering they played all of Battle Hymns except for William's Tale, the intensity of the loud music from them and a selection of fairly good songs on the second half (I'd take more songs over their wanking solos any day of the week), I do have to say this very clear:

FUCK YOU JOEY DEMAIO YOU MONEY GRABBING PIECE OF SHIT!

Whatever desire I had to buy an expensive T-Shirt from their merchandise after my enjoyment from the show went out the window as soon as some douchebag no-one cares about came on stage saying "Fuck bootleg merchandise and if you see any outside, tell them to "FUCK YOU!"" Totally appalling behaviour, even if I don't approve of bootleg merchandise. Some fans even went to harass someone outside the venue. Damn shame they went and did that since I was starting to think Manowar have some really kind fans after meeting a few people I've never even met before.

That's the one and only time I will ever need to see Manowar live up until Joey DeMaio decides to stop being a dickhead (which is never).

Fucking gay that Symphony X won't be playing in IL... I really don't understand when bands skip the fucking Chicago area. One of the biggest cities in America? Fuck that lets go somewhere else. ugh....

Anyways I'm seeing Mastodon next Saturday at The Rave in WI since I won't be able to go to the one on Friday in IL. Pretty much having a major Mastodon Obsession right now. I always do this though with bands. I know I've had my Gwar Obsession which is weird cause Gwar is more of a live show band. Then there was Black Dahlia Murder, Acid bath for sure, Lamb Of God (Fuck you haters), Deicide, Exhumed, Ensiferum, Dimmu Borgir, Morbid Angel and yeah I can go on and on.


We're meat and that's it. So lets fuck it, fuck it, fuck it.

Metal Hell

The cold wind and the snow of this night, whips my heart of pure ice

My cold blood is running through my veins, but my soul burns like an everlasting flame

You got to see Manowar live and Joey's douchebaggish kept you from enjoying it?

Really? I always found his total dickholeness to be one of the most entertaining parts of a Manowar show.

I'm not even a huge Manowar fan, and I thought they easily put on the best live performance of any band i've ever seen. Saw them back in march, they played battle hymns in entirety as the beginning of a three hour set. <3

Indeed.

Check out their third, fourth and fifth albums. Those are AMAZING, everything else by them is subpar.

Listen to their first six albums. Their newer stuff is kind of eh, but their first six albums are amazing.

I'm almost positive it's probably because they have another tour opportunity that must've popped up. They're probably off the tour early to open for Maiden or Metallica or something. Happens all the time.


Make war, not love.
