Been down that road a few times, have we? :)

 

Wait, no. :(

 

 

Hey, look. I made it to "Monkey". What kind of monkey am I? New World, Old World? Wait it has to be New World-- Callithricidae or Cebidae family? Can I be a Cotton-top Tamarin?

How come everybody is putting like a thousand bands on their list? I can only list a handful that amaze me.

 

Same here. But I guess it would be a monster list if I named all the bands I have songs by. I just picked out the "top musicians" on my playlist.

...i would like to, but i have no idea how to get there... *shrug* we'll see... (and i don't know if i have time then at all, cause i'm finishing school this year and then i'll start studying computer science (that's the plan, at least)...)

 

...they were in braunschweig (where i live) at the 19th of november, but i somehow didn't notice until the 20th... :(

...err, yes...

 

...the music they make is sort of medival, with "original" old instruments...

 

...their site is http://www.corvuscorax.de/, but beware, it's in german...

That splash page is scaring me something awful. It screams at me: "FULL OF KINK AND BONDAGE BEYOND THIS POINT; BEWARE".

 

So naturally I am going in head-first.

Fender, you reminded me of Evergrey. I have the most recent CD, and I really dig them. Also probably has the best vocalist in metal, next to Mikael Akerfeldt...and Serj Tankian, if you consider SOAD metal, which I don't.

 

As for Children of Bodom, I honestly think they are very overrated. I prefer construction-based stuff as opposed to intracacy-based stuff (same reason I think Dimmu Borgir kicks Cradle of Filth's ass, and why Wakeman beats up Emerson in my mindset) But I'm not too big into power metal, so don't listen to me.

 

Although Bodom was in of the best concert line-ups I've seen: Hypocracy, Bodom, Nevermore, and Dimmu Borgir. I thought those where great choices that really fit. Although there was also this show with Crossbreed, Godhead, and Rammstein that made an awesome line-up.

 

As for worst line-ups ever: Neurosis and Pantera. All the redneck Pantera fans booed off Neurosis. What were those tour managers thinking?

Yeah, Heaven & Hell and Mob Rules, the only Sabbath-Dio albums I have. I gotta get any other solo Dio album or Dehumanizer.

Right now I'm listening to King Diamond - Conspiracy 1989.

The only King Diamond albums I got are:

1987 - Abigail

1989 - Conspiracy

1990 - The Eye

1996 - The Graveyard

I'm searching for the Mercyful Fate albums, especially 1996 - Into The Unknown (It has an interesting song called "Kutulu").

Posted

Heaven & Hell is one of my favourites too, Sabbath wise.

 

There's a "best of" Mercyful Fate CD I want to get, cos Metallica covered three of their songs on Garage Inc. They actually combined them into a single track, which was just called Mercyful Fate, but it has Corpse Without Soul, Curse of the Pharaohs and Satans Fall in there in one form or another. It's fantastic, so I really want to hear more of their stuff, as well as the original versions of the three I just mentioned.

I hate to tell you this, but Dehumanizer just can't compare with the other two. It seems like a completely different style. Not so cool.

Yesterday I bought two CDs, they are not very new, but they ARE the first CDs I have bought all year.

 

This one came out in March of 2004:

VAC is NOT techno, alot of it is danceable, but it is definitely not techno.

 

"Industrial" is the term you are looking for I think.

Posted

I know there is all these subcatagories and stuff, but I look at "techno" as the broad term, though a lot of people say techno is a subcatagory of "Electronica" or something like that. I'm just talking about the catagory that techno goes into, whatever you wish to call it. I wish to call it "Techno".

 

I disagree with it being industrial. I see Rammstein, Lacuna Coil, Type-o Negative (yuk!), Nine Inch Nails, etc. being Industrial. I see VAC as just hardcore...um ...techno.
