Posted - 10/06/2006 : 02:39:17 I know the term "Metal" or "Hard Rock" is quite limited and does not reflect all the diversity of this rock' n' roll "genre" but I wonder if there are any lovers of these musics here and what are their favourite bands, albums, etc...
I guess the bands I like the most are:
Tool Faith No More Melvins Kyuss Metallica Led Zeppelin Black Sabbath Fantômas Slayer Deftones Alice In Chains Alice Cooper

And yes, Cliff Richard does rule as well. My Grandma used to play the "Everybodys on a Summer Holiday" song when I was a kid. It's so happy and positive but in a sort of unsettling way. Even thinking of that song makes me laugh.

I totally agree, Cliff Burton was a hell of a Bassplayer, his parts on Anesthesia, Orion and The Call of Ktulu for example are incredible.
Hey, HeywoodJablome that must be cool to have a grandma like that!

Cliff does indeed rule, but what the fuck is a heshen?!

Posted - 10/20/2006 : 15:47:00 Melvins are my favorite band to go see live. I've seen them about 9 times and every time has been amazing. Dale Crover is worth the price of admission alone, the guy is a monster on the drums. I'm chomping at the bit to go see this new incarnation they got going because Coady is a bad ass drummer as well.
As far as other metal these days I'm afraid I just stick to the "art fag" stuff like Fantomas and things of that ilk. Maybe a little Slayer. Jesus I'm getting old.

2 drummers is always a good idea.
As a listener, sure. But rest assured, having to work with only one is enough of a headache...

2 drummers, 2 bass players and 4 guitarists is better still.

Posted - 10/18/2006 : 10:34:12 It took me more time to appreciate "Mit Gas" than the 1st Tomahawk, and maybe I like the 1st one a little more than "Mit Gas", but that's all great music in there. I hope we won't wait too long for the next one.

Posted - 10/18/2006 : 10:21:12 I got the Dillinger Escape Plan EP with Patton, it´s pretty good, and the second Tomahawk record, Mit Gas. Initial impression is I don´t feel the songs are as strong as the first one but the band are gelling a bit better - the guitarist has stopped trying to wrestle with Patton for melodic lead and fits comfortably around him instead.

Posted - 10/18/2006 : 05:09:20 I'm loving Blood Mountain. It's a grower. Leviathan is going to always be the album that everyone mentions first, but Blood Mountain certainly isn't far off of it. At this stage I'm not at all sure which one I prefer.
Not heard the new Melvins but I blindly assume it's going to be awesome. The reviews I've heard of the new 2 drummer line up have only been ones of pure adulation.
Lead me not into temptation; I can find the way myself. |

Posted - 10/18/2006 : 01:29:05 so anybody heard the new Mastodon, is it as good as Leviathan?
and the last one from the Melvins?

Posted - 10/15/2006 : 05:02:34 i think the isis / aedrogramme split is very good. i'm much more impressed with that than the full isis album.
also picked up the isis dvd the other week. not bad...

Posted - 10/15/2006 : 04:13:08 Mastodon are the UK support for Tool. Dunno about the rest of Europe.
I quite like the new Isis album. But that could just be my blind love of Isis. Just picked up (amongst many many others) the Isis Aerogramme split - yet to listen to it and heard very varied reviews.
