| Saw it once before, didn't think it was all TOO funny, but kind of amusing. Some points are true. Rips on Machine Head too much, and considering they're a good band...bleh. | |||

| Correction: Opeth is progressive death metal, or at least many would agree to this term. Supposedly their earlier stuff is more black metallish, but I haven't listened to any of that, even though I own My Arms, Your Hearse... BUT, I'm slowly picking CDs out of that big stack of unlistened CDs and putting them in my CD player! Tonight I listened to the digipak re-release of My Dying Bride's Turn Loose the Swans, and wow, am I ever impressed. | |||

| Not just the vocals but the sound of the music as well. Although Opeth does have a lot of clean vocals, and there are bands with death vocals that aren't death metal (like metalcore band The Red Chord). Anyway...as if it needed to be said...Mikael |

| This is kind of a fun thread o'er there at IGN Metal, so I thought I'd bring it here. Just post the stuff you've recently bought, or what's been given to you (legal, official copies, mind you--no CD-Rs, DVD-Rs, or files).

| Still no Sonic CD, eh? Then it's worthless and is not a step above from the GC collection because of that simple omission. | |||

| Yeah, the new Mastodon album is definitely great, though the clean vocals aren't the greatest. I like their album Remission a hell of a lot more. Better songs, more impressive. | |||

| Yes, the artwork for Leviathan is incredible. And it's a great album, although The Dillinger Escape Plan's Miss Machine still stands as my favorite metal album of 2004 so far. Definitely get Mastodon's Remission. It's mind-blowingly good. That and the first song starts out with what sounds like a Tie Fighter, just before the song ROCKS out for a total of 2 minutes. Ordered today (September 16th): Cave In - Creative Eclipses Error - Error KMFDM - Symbols Meshuggah - Destroy Erase Improve Meshuggah - I Pre-ordered (DVD): Fraggle Rock: Where It All Began [Special Edition] Oh heeeeell yeah! Fraggle Rock, baby. Comes out October 19th. Can't wait. (edited by Abnormal Freak on 09-15-04 03:40 AM) (edited by Abnormal Freak on 09-16-04 02:41 PM) |

| Goin' to any concerts in the near future? Me, I'll hopefully be hittin' up Sleepytime Gorilla Museum on the 29th if it turns out being an 18+ show instead of a 21+ one. The club's website says it's 21, but the band's label's site says it's 18. I'll hafta call the club to be sure... Then, there are 3 concerts in October: The 10th: Seeing The Dillinger Escape Plan!!!! Yes yes yes yes yes!! I hope to God they play "Setting Fire to Sleeping Giants". It's easily my favorite song off the new album. Can't wait to see the band in action. The 21st: Converge with Cave In and Between the Buried and Me! I'm mostly excited to see BTBAM, and they had BETTER play "Mordecai" and "Ad a dglgmut"! That would be metalcore bliss. Cave In is an excellent band too, and I hope they play a couple of their old metalcore songs off Until Your Heart Stops (more than likely they'll play "Juggernaut"). And from what I've heard by Converge, they're mighty swanky too. The 23rd: Coheed and Cambria, darling. I meant to see these guys months back, but unfortunately the night before, I accidentally did something that put a friend of mine in the ER. So instead of going to the concert, I went to visit him in the hospital instead. But they're back! I can see them perform this time! (That is if I still have money...) I plan to go to each show full of cash. Merchandise is a neatorrific thing. T-shirts, hopefully in a sexy medium size, CDs, crap like that... Wonderful. |

| You're seeing Slayer. That means Mastodon is the opening act, or one of them anyway. I'd go, only to see Mastodon (who have one of the craziest, best, and most technical drummers around), but the ticket price here is almost $30. Yeesh! | |||

| Ziff, I was thinkin' 'bout goin' to dat KMFDM show...but you know, a 20th anniversary show isn't much with Sascha being the only original member left. Pretty bogus, if you ask me. Plus, I saw 'em with their current lineup last year, although they were with Raymond last fall. This year he'll be absent. | |||

| For ordering CDs online (and also DVDs), I recommend Bull Moose Music. I've been using it for years. The prices are good (although they've gone up a little in the past half-year), and the media mail shipping option is super cheap, and if I order on a Monday, I'll usually get my stuff by the following Friday or Saturday. Just know that for getting Remission, Bull Moose lists the digipak version that comes with the DVD, but in actuality all they have is the standard jewel case version. But don't bother finding the digipak version and paying a great deal for it... The DVD is all audio and I hear it's real crappy-sounding. Digipaks are cool though... ADD-ON (Sep. 25): Bought this DVD: Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels Great shit. Totally FIIIIINE! Guy Ritchie, I could kiss him. The guy who plays Barry the Baptist was supposedly a bare-knuckle boxer who had somewhere around THREE THOUSAND consecutive wins. He musta been a one-punch machine! And seeing as how BRUTISH he is, I totally believe it! Too bad he died of throat cancer after the movie was made. : Oh, and as for Fraggle Rock, Bull Moose didn't process my pre-order fo' some reason or 'nudda. Good thing though...'cos I don't want it anymore! It's only got 3 episodes... How bogus. Cave in and release a season set... Also got these, same night...

| Yeah... A lot of people are under the impression that Hero is directed by Tarantino. An eensy bit of research will tell otherwise. Wasn't sure of his involvement, but yeah, I figured he'd just financed it to show in the US. He did the same thing with another kung fu movie I saw...can't remember what it was. Thinking about going to see Hero, though. Now let's see when I actually go do it... |

| Soulseek is so beautiful. I've been able to leech just about every Coil album in existence (and they sometimes put out 2 or 3 a year) off one guy. Fast connection...lets you take from him if you download no more than one album at a time. I share quite a few albums on Slsk. (By the way, the article said it can be downloaded at www.slsk.org...which is wrong. The site is www.slsknet.org.) I find it fun to organize things and share. I don't have too many MP3s, 'cos a lot of the stuff I really like, I buy hard copies of, and if I own it, I don't have the songs on my computer. But recently, this one guy I know ripped all of his CDs to MP3s and is selling his whole CD collection. (Again about Coil...their CDs often go for $30 a piece. I'll be getting each for generally $5 each off this guy!) Maybe I'll do the same one day, EXCEPT...I doubt I'd rip to MP3. ; As it stands, I have close to 5 gigs on my hard drive. I don't share all of it...'cos some of it's stuff that's, well, kind of exclusive, and I respect that. Never cared to own an iPod, but what really yanks my crank is iTunes for PC. It's sooooo well-organized and spiffy. Forget Winamp (except for listening to SNES music and such) and the horribly cruddy Windows Media Player...it's all about the iTunes, baby. Sooo fucking Sleek Sexy & Stupendous (mua ha ha suck that, Raymond Watts!). Totally killer shit...and easy to rip CDs to MP3s/WAVs using it.

| This movie is effing MAD! Utterly hilarious...a great fucking cast, cool, cool music, awesome writing and camera work, twists and turns and mishaps and all of that... Truly funny movie about the underground crime scene in London. Written and directed by the same guy who wrote and directed Snatch, which I saw after LS&TSB. Basically the same kind of movie almost...although I like LS&TSB way more. Can't really say much...'cos I'm uninteresting...but this movie, is just great. Go see it! Loved it so much I also bought my own copy of it on DVD. Got it at Best Buy for TEN DOLLA! For that price...it's a steal. FANTASTIC stuff...just go watch it. And/or discuss it. YES! I SAAAAAYYSSSS IIIITTTTT! |

| Vinnie Jones is the best part about the movie. Big Chris is the MAN! And yeah, I knew LS&TSB was Ritchie's debut. ![]() |

| So, opinions change, you hear new things, but currently what is your favorite release of this year? My pick is Miss Machine by The Dillinger Escape Plan. The songwriting is phenomenal, the band is still technical even though they've toned that way down, production is top-notch, and the vocalist is better with DEP than Dimirtri and Mike Patton were; he's the perfect fit. Awesome album, though I'm not sure which DEP album I like the most: this one or their self-titled EP. A runner-up would hafta be Error's self-titled EP; it's basically electro hardcore in the same style as Atari Teenage Riot. Error consists of Brett Gurewitz of Bad Religion, NIN programmer Atticus Ross, and his brother Leopold Ross. And for this EP (I'm sad he's not an actual standing member), you've got Greg Puciato on vocals, who is the current vocalist for...The Dillinger Escape Plan! Most of the stuff he does with DEP is hardcore screaming, but occasionally he'll sing and also have a very sassy tone to his clean and scream vocals. On this EP, it's all sassy. :There are other lovely albums released this year. Stuff by Mastodon, haloblack, Einstuerzende Neubauten, Arsis, Capharnaum, etc., but I think I like those two the most. |
