Jam it back in, in the dark.

On my last day in Chile I went to this tiny market in Valdivia, and, well, there was a stall selling nothing but metal-related shit. Wallets with DT emblems, Katatonia patches, everything. I picked out this awesome bootleg Therion shirt - Really good quality, silkscreened, embossed lettering. Lemuria on the front, Sirius B on the back.

What the fuck. No, seriously, I had no idea you were here. (lol klarth btw)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I want a random booth selling nothing but metal merch .
Especially Therion shirts. I don't like paying shipping for clothing, and they don't sell that kind of stuff around my neck of the woods.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Me to, also finding band t-shirts smaller than large or x-large. Hell even the medium t-shirts are usually roomy.

How ya doing, buddy?

I don't think I ever ended up writing about this, but way back last Thanksgiving I finally got to see Blind Guardian live. Rates up there as pretty much the most incredible experience of my life. Everyone knows all the words, so you have a massive chorus to accompany them, and of coures, the Bard's Song was impressive. They played "And Then There Was Silence" much to my surprise, since it's something like 14 minutes long. It's one of my absolutely favorite BG songs so I was pretty happy.

EDIT: We even got them to add a song to their set list, Majesty .

I was speaking idiomatically.

Blind Guardian are awesome, i missed them when they where in the UK back in September Hopefully it's not to long before they're here again.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

That was my second live concert ever, the first "real" one. I was at an Audio Adrenaline concert way, way back when I was younger at the 4H Fair, it was really good, but I was a bit young to actually enjoy a concert as much as I should have. Moshing and crowd-surfing going on, interstingly enough.

Heh. The mosh pits @ the BG concert were WAY more brutal though.

I've never really been much of a concert person, but when I found out BG was playing live in Chicago (about a 3.5+ hour drive) I couldn't pass it up. My favorite (still living & performing) band.

FELIPE NO

I should hope so to, the pits at bloodstock last year where brutal.
Although the worst I've ever had was a hatebreed show when my arm was dislocated in a wall of death

good times

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Anyone heard Wormphlegm's In an Excruciating Way etc etc etc etc? I've been listening to it a lot. Super good.

Torture Priest...
Boil him in 1000 degree hot excrement...

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I think Wormphlegm hold the record for longest demo album title ever
"In An Excruciating Way Infested With Vermin And Violated By Executioners Who Practise Incendiarism And Desanctifying The Pious"
It is very good mind

Most amazing jew boots

What the fuck. We chanted Majesty over and over again and they didn't even play it. And the place was packed, too.
Wankers.

Edit: I sincerely doubt moshing was that brutal at a Blind Guardian concert, though... I can't stand moshing myself, but the moshing at power metal shows never come close to, say, thrash or death metal shows. I shudder to imagine punk and (true) hardcore concerts...

Chicago was a great show

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Can anyone upload these tracks; Noman's Land's "Sea Battlefield" and Moonsorrow's "Pakanajuhla" since my copies are broken.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Here's that Moonsorrow track. Can't help with the other one.

Hey, thanks man.

So, any new releases on the internet? I'm kinda itching for some new metal music.

FELIPE NO

What specifically are you interested in? I'd be glad to share out of my collection.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Has anyone heard Derek Sherinian's solo work? I just got Blood of the Snake and it's pretty solid.

For Christmas I got (among other things which I dare not mention here *ahem* King Crimson's Red <3) the debut albums of both Angra and Shaman. HOLY SHIT. Now I'm actually upset that Shaman disbanded. And Angels Cry is right up there with Temple and Holy Land for me. At the risk of being contrarian, I love the Kate Bush cover.

Somwhere along the lines of viking/pagan/folk metal. (I usually ask niki or morrigan for names, whenever I can.)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The only viking/pagan/folk metal I have is Amon Amarth, at least that I know of, and I've gotten fairly negative reactions to them on this board before . I like them though =/.

If you want them I can upload them to my site and send you a link.

I have Amon Amarth. No offense, but I'm not really impressed by their music. Their cool, ok I guess, but it lacks in "oomph!" factor, if you know what I mean.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

In case if someone is interested:

Quote:

(...)In a recent interview with U.K. magazine Rock-A-Rolla (web site), former FAITH NO MORE frontman Mike Patton said that a fifth release by star-studded noise-mongers FANTOMAS — which also features MELVINS guitarist Buzz Osborne, MR. BUNGLE bassist Trevor Dunn, and SLAYER drummer Dave Lombardo — would probably not see the light of day for a couple of years. "I'm gonna take a little break from FANTOMAS and do some other things," he stated and added that the record will be "all electronic" and will contain "no acoustic instrumentation."(...)

I'm more in an Ukrainian Black Metal phase again right now. Lucifugum, Astrofaes, Warhead ... Stuff like that. I guess you could like them, eventhough it took time for me.

My neck still hurts two days after the Moonsorrow concert. Think I exaggerated during Kylän Päässä? Naah.... And Metal Church is this Sunday, w00t!


So last Boxing Day, at a local metal CD store, if you bought something on that day you were automatically entered for a contest. There were apparently ten prizes of 10 CD batches, and five prizes of 5 CD batches.

In a matter of pure luck, not only did I win 10 CDs, but my boyfriend also won 10 CDs! We didn't get to pick the CDs, of course, so the quality is kind of meh, but hey, they're free... who knows, I might give some away too. I seem to have gotten assorted black metal CDs, while my boyfriend got an assortment of brutal death/grindcore CDs, poor him.
Anyone familiar with the following bands? I got CDs by those:

Azure, Saxorior, Arise From Thorns, Dialectic Soul, Obscure Devotion, Ewiges Reich, Throndt, Menhir, Satarial, Cultus

And he got CDs by:

Strangulation, Death du Jour, Mind Eclipse, Myopia, Da Grind, Pustulated, Hacksaw to the Throat, Dismo, Hyperion, Subtera

So far, CDDB doesn't recognize the first two CDs I got. Kvlt...

I'd say they're melodic death metal, they don't sound anything like a viking/folk metal band at all. The only relation they have to those subsub genres are the viking lyrical content.



Some great news, Emperor is coming back to the States for three concerts in L.A., Chicago and New York! I am so going to the one in L.A. Man, I thought I would miss out on them forever when they came last year, but now, I have another chance! Fuck yes!
