Yes, you may.

Always liked Clutch, especially the early stuff. Townsend is a genius, I love most of his work including the AYM stuff but his solo projects usually blow my mind. Mastadon's a bit overrated IMO but still a solid prog(ish) band if they can keep it real and get off the mtv fanboy train... Why on earth they decided to cover that crappy zztop song I'll never understand.

Saying Devin Townsend is a genius is most probably a severe understatement. Not so keen on the Ziltoid but Synchestra and Ki are amazeballs.
I've just got Synchestra on vinyl and waiting for my first cider brew to be fully drinkable to open the virginal record sleeve and then enjoy together.

Music really is a super sweet way to relax.

Listening to Delain's new album, We Are the Others. So far, not too bad. A little different from the previous two albums. Heavier.

Awesome new BM from down under...

 

[headbanger]

New goth(ish) from the US, good stuff..

 

[headbanger]

Good new BM from Poland...

Crystal Viper returns in stellar form with probably their best album yet and Marta's hotter and sounding better than ever...

So facking bad!!! Thanks this is exactly what I love, drone guitars and doomish drums, with agonizing vocals! Getting all there albums as we speak!

The progression of the song is oddly uplifting, I love this. Thanks again.

Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, Nile, and Vader get constant play during my daily adventures. When I am feeling really fishy, 1349 gets the nod. In terms of metal band names, 1349 is brilliant! I mean come on, how many folks know when the plague made it to Sweden?

1349 :rockin:

I really like Nile too but I am very let down by the new record.

 

[headbanger]

This new EP, on the other hand, is superb...

 

[headbanger]

Just as FYI, I noticed that Agalloch have re-released a two cd set of The White and The Grey which includes all the same bonus goodies that came with the vinyl set. For those of you that don't already know, you can lay down some serious jack for the same set on vinyl, they are very rare and hard to come by.. the price for the cd set is $23 on Agalloch's site.

Yea sometimes they get too into the whole Egyptian thing too much instead of playing face melting metal. But the stuff they play when they do is amazing. Digging around youtube a while back I found a studio cut of a side project George Kollias was working on where the whole vid is showing him playing. His foot control is amazing. I love blast beats and the on and off count hardcore speed beats.

 

[Gixxer]

I love finding some of the lesser known thrash bands too.

 

[Gixxer]

And a good ol standby that gets me through the day sometimes. Billy Milano is a freak on the stage. He ran around like he was high on cocaine the whole set when I saw them. Simply amazing!!! That was when they toured right before the bigger than the devil album.

 

[Gixxer]

And finishing off this ride with some 1349. I know this is a Mayhem cover but I like this version better. Frost is an animal with his blast beats!!!

 

[headbanger]

Good stuff Gix, thanks for posting. Here's some good Finish thrash for you..

 

[headbanger]

This is hard to put a finger on but I like it, kind of pagan-ish?

 

[headbanger]

Anybody remember Belfegor? Same band, different name but still putting out some darn fine bm-ish material...

Epica, Burn To A Cinder

So you've got your own band?
