I'll probably check out several of these bands you guys have mentioned. I'm just now checking out Anacrusis. I've heard of them, but this is the first time I've actually listened to them. I'm digging it.

And on the subject of Black Sabbath, I have the following albums.

Paranoid
Master of Reality
Vol. 4
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Heaven and Hell
the Mob Rules

They're all very good, but I'd say my favorite is probably Master of Reality.

Check out Vektor.

Hck, even if they aren't what you are looking for, Vektor is easily the best modern thrash band. They outshine a lot of older thrash bands too. Freaking awesome stuff.

Lamb Of God - Resolution

Album dropped today, picked it up as soon as I got off and have been listeing to it all night. It is so god dam good.

Straight for the Sun
Invictus

Fuck I forgot about this. Oh well, I'll just get it this Friday. Just come back from The Ghost concert. Was really good just wish the set list was longer but when you play every single song you have plus the bonus track Here comes the sun by The Beatles what else can you do? Even though they are releasing a new album within the future would have expected hearing some tonight. Oh well, got a cool ass shirt out of it.

Damn that sucks man. I posted earlier that I was going. You probably missed it. WHY U NO READ POST I POST?!? Although Dan (Depremacy Dan) said it sold out so lucky for Dan the guy that I originally bought that ticket for couldn't go. Also him and I were selling his bands demo for $1 and sold every single one.

I've been super inactive but I've just realised I still love all of you and I love you Sense-Offender, you're a true metal forum hero. Yep, this place is pretty special to me. Joined here in 06 with a picture of Megadeth and a rant about how disgraceful Nu-Metal is, I know I was just trying to impress everyone but you all steered me and reered my asshole I mean nurtured me in to great bands and really taught me about metal, the greats, the aesthetics, the soul, of metal music. Now I've only got 3 more months of being 18. Yep, Coopsang will be 19 and god damn I'm a talented musician because of all the advice on music, and the hours I spent listening and understanding. Here is the latest music video of my band Troll, this is psychedelic rock however, but Troll are a stoner metal band. We're just musicians who aren't afraid to show different colours. Please enjoy

I'm just grateful Slough Feg covered The Wizard's Vengeance on Twilight of the Idols since if otherwise I'd have never heard about this great record.

actually after i heard the destroyer on that i sat and kept listening to it and learned the Intro by ear :D
i wish i was better at doing stuff like that cause i want to learn the rest and i would look up tabs but i cant find ANY

Yeah, for a very obscure band like Legend, you'd need a miracle to even find the tabs.

hell i had to learn Suicide by Dust and post a tab of it because none existed that i could find

At least you've done some tabs before.

I did write a review for their debut album on my site. That's the only album of theirs I have so far and keep meaning to pick up more of their stuff from Shadow Kingdom. Dalnaki was the one who introduced me to Dark Quarterer.

ah okay
well i think its a pretty good album
i'll try to find a copy of it or anything else by them the next time i go cd/vinyl hunting

I would recommend SKR but the prices might look expensive for American users. When it's converted to GBP, the prices don't look that bad to me, even with postage topped on. If the average comes to £8 per CD including postage costs, it's a good deal for me for generally hard to find metal albums. You could look up some of the albums on Amazon and they'll be like £20 or higher.

but now im currently in the process of trying to get both of Dust's albums on vinyl to add to my record collection

Right now I have a few new releases to wait for through the post including Pilgrim's Misery Wizard and Steelwing's Zone of Alienation. I'll also be getting Vektor's Outer Isolation since the album is more than worth buying. I would like to find more metal distros that I can sink my teeth into, particularly if they support doom/power/traditional metal.

then again on my youtube account i only have 1 video
and thats Throw Up/Painted Parade by Red Fang because whenever i listen to them i feel they should be played together and whenever i see videos of them playing it live they dont play both of them one after the other.

Although I axed all my videos with my main YouTube channel, I do have my MondayMetalTreasures channel which contains songs that I don't come across on YouTube so I fill in the empty spaces.

Opus Eponymous quickly became one of my metal favourites so it could be a while before these guys even top them for me. Still, nice tune.

i really liked Opus Eponymous and ive listened to it more than my stupid lastfm thing says i have -_-
it says i listened to Red Fang almost 1000 times and then after that Nirvana about 200 times when i know i listened to it WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more than that and that also goes with the other stuff i have on there too

What do you use to scrobble your music? Using an iPod to scrobble your music tends to be tricky depending on the versions of both iTunes and the Last.fm plugin for it.

well im bidding on both of Dust's albums on eBay at the moment and so far im winning.
ive been thinking about getting Set The Dial by Black Tusk its kinda new i guess. i mean it came out in October. actually it came out the day after 17th Street came out. or something by Black Tusk cause im starting to listen to them more lately.

This, exactly. Wolves In The Throne Room could be a lot better. But they have good atmosphere and they can write some very good tracks. Some of their stuff isn't memorable though.

Pretty cool music you guys are writting :)
Nice to have you in here!

So gigs now !!!

I see Dark Funeral's tour was cancelled. This is kind of sad, even though I wasn't quite sure to go. Dark Funeral, Abigail Williams, Inquisition and Gigan were the bands booked for the concert in Montreal. Abigail Williams was my first motivation to go to that gig. They are still one of the bands I liked to see the most live. They are great on stage. Dark Funeral and Inquisition are also pretty fucking great on record. So I guess it would have been cool. But it's cancelled now. Anybody knows why?

Kind of forgot to include the other gigs in my last post.

So Children Of Bodom are on their 15th anniversary tour. They will be playing in Montreal along with Threat Signal, Eluveitie and Revocation.

This could be a cool little gig to go to. I don't really like or care for their latest work, but their first four albums are all very enjoyable an great when played live :)

There will also be this great Folk Rock band named Les Cowboys Fringants playing in March. I'd like to see them again. Saw them twice already. But they are one of the most amazing bands in the world :)

(the guy who founded the town) called the town Marseilles, under the impression that Marseilles, France was an industrial center the likes of which he hoped to attain in Illinois.
theres also La Salle to the west of me and theres streets named after Lafayette and stuff like that

i wanted to go but i dont have any way to get there :(
and i think it might be sold out :/

Sense. Dale Cooper Quartet & The Dictaphones.

Ponos would probably dig them too.

Dal might as well. I think I remember you liking Bohren & der Club of Gore.

Same kind of vibe just not as dark.

Goddamn, Mark Reale from Riot died. He suffered Chron's disease which considering a friend of mine had and survived from it, I expected the same for him. I don't even have any of Riot's albums in my library but I did hear Immortal Soul and enjoyed it. I'll be picking up Narita and Fire Down Under.

On another note, fuck Paganfest for having the cheek to call their European tour European when 10 out of 17 of those shows are in Germany. They missed out the UK once again.

That's really all I want to hear from them. I love their first 2 and a little of the 3rd but their 4th is garbage.
