    Your thoughts on Freak Kitchen?

    Damn! I checked these guys out after seeing the "freak guitar" vid by Mattias Eklundh. All I have to say is: If this is pop/rock, then screw metal! :Spin: But seriously, these guys have some serious talent. The songs are stuck in my head all day, and the tongue-in-cheek humour is just...

    Torontonians? Anyone going to The Northern Lights Festival?

    Just wondering if anyone from the board is going to be attending the show. It's a fair ways away, but if you want to see some great black metal from Canada and the US, you should probably get your tickets soon, as it'll probably sell out. I'll be there (as session guitarist for Eclipse Eternal)...

    It's official...Enslaved is the greatest band ever!

    Well, after hearing the new album about 20 or so times, I can honestly say it's the best piece of metal I've ever heard. Everything about it is nearly perfect...The awesome melodies, the twisted chords, the cool clean passages, the clean vocals, the perfect incorporation of odd time sigs...I...

    Torontonians...Show tomorrow night!

    Anyone going to the Lapidate/Feral Horde/At The Mercy of Inspiration/Archaeon show at the Q-Bar? It's guaranteed to be a good time! I've seen ATMOI before, and they definately a solid live band! For 5$ you can't go wrong. Oh yeah, and I'm the giutarist in Archaeon (any guitarists out there take...

    Why does Mike sound so evil....

    at 7:46 in Master's Apprentices? Possibility number one: There are no other instruments playing at the time, andhis voice takes up the full spectrum of sound. There are no other instruments with which you can compare his voice to (relatively, given the exact moment/contrast) No bass...

    12 Strings in metal?

    Does anyone use 12 strings in metal, with distortion? I can't say I've ever heard it used that way, but I think it would be interesting. A 12 string already sounds much bigger than a 6 string, resonates more, and due to the sheer amount of string vibration and volume, almost seems to...

    Elitism/Advanced Music Listening/Long Post!

    Lately I've been thinking a lot about music (oddly enough, I seem to think about it as much, or more than I listen, yet still get a similar satisfaction,....)and how we percieve it. This may explain the idea of Elitism to some extent, and how it works.This may be a little long winded, but I'll...

    For your Emperor Guitar needs, or general musical appreciation...

    http://www.angelfire.com/linux/emperorlibrary/index.html Every tab from all their studio albums, save Prometheus....In Guitar Pro! It's pretty cool to just sit and watch the tabs, just get a new perspective on the songs. The few I've listened to so far have been pretty damn accurate as well!

    Katatonia-Passing Bird Cover anyone?

    I've had this lying around since the Katatonia mp3.com cover song contest, but due to email problems/internet issues, I never ever got it to the competition. I figured I'd post it and see what you guys think. For lack of better description, i guess It's a little more "metalized". I should...

    The Explorer:

    Most beaufiful song ever? Man, I think I can honestly say that, nothing has ever moved me so deeply as that intro riff. And the crazy chilling(in a nice way) vocal harmonies just envelop you....I don't know how it can sound so damn good! Man, Vintersorg has sure picked the right rhythm section...

    Help! The Cover Song Thread...

    )Hey there, I would like some opinions on some covers my band will be choosing from. We have them all rehearsed already, but we'd like a song that: A) is technically impressive yet enjoyed by a lot of metal listeners. B) A song that you don't hear bands cover often (Ie, the audience moght be...

    Thank you Demonspell!

    The songs To Watch column truly rocks. I've read them all (BTW, thanks for including WoW!) right from the beginning, and I've found a lot of cool stuff thanks to you. The whole column is just a great idea in general, and you do a great job. I actually look forward to it just as much any of the...

    Holy Shit, I Think I figured it out!

    Why I don't like Blackwater Park As Much as the other albums! It's taken a while, but I've come to the conclusion they have gotten too tight as a band, and it makes them lose the feel they had before. The others were tight, but not as perfect, and the production on BWP just takes away from that...

We have a drummer, bassist, vocalist, and myself on guitars thus far. If you might be interested, we are kinda progressive, riff oriented metal, you can check...

    Don Caballero!

    Anyone listen to these guys??? Someone here mentioned them a while ago, and I went and picked up the CD "Singles Breaking Up" two days ago. All I can say is ":o :confused: :eek: I think that best describes this stuff, I truly can't put it into words! I must collect all their albums as...

    Something that nees to be said about/to David Caswell

    Goddamn, I think Softly may be the best song I have ever heard! I can think of maybe one or two others (interestingly enough instrumental as well) that reach this level. I don't know what you are on, but I want some of that stuff! :lol: Seriously though, you have not only the gift of riff, but...
