I came across this interesting piece on GameSpot a couple of weeks ago. I've never really played League of Legends myself, but I was very interested in at least checking this Pentakill outfit out and see how they sound. I was a little skeptical if this is going to be some crappy sounding...

Have any of you guys heard of this Polish epic, symphonic power/progressive metal band? I found this Perfecto Mundo album on Mindawn.com and was completely blown away by it. I ended up downloading a FLAC version and burning a CD from it to listen to on my rig. I also grabbed their Shadow...

Friday: Sinbreed Kingcrow Solution .45 Serenity Primordial Redemption Epica (headliner) Saturday Above Symmetry Lanfear Amaranthe Mystic Prophecy Mayan Pretty Maids (Finally!!!) Symphony X (Headliner)

Okay, although the album is not supposed to be "officially" released until May 3rd, but I ended up buying a digital copy from Mindawn (in FLAC) and burned it to CD so I can give it a proper listen on my big Klipsch rig (RF-7s with B&K components) How I even found this thing? While listening to...

I've been away from here for a while as I was busy as hell, plus I've been away on a couple of ski trips out west - the first one to Park City, UT and the second one to Jackson Hole, WY. Anyway, go figure that over at The Canyons in Utah, I find a ski run called "Heavy Metal". Naturally, I...

Wow, the forum did a switcheroo on me again like the last time! Well, we are now officially on ProgPower XII mode for the next year :muahaha: Pretty damn cool, although I kinda liked the blue background of the last iteration better, though. It was easier for me to read.

That was wild! I was just reading the thread about the loss of Greg Allard and the forum still had the old red/rust theme, only to go into a thread about Porcupine Tree's photo policy to see the forum suddenly change to this new teal green look. I actually like it better than that old...

Am I not the only one that was utterly blown away by that set??? This was the one band that I thought I was going to like the least, but still was going to give them a chance, as I kept hearing about how awesome their stage show was. I figured I'll hold by my personal rule that I'll go in and...

Here is another sweet little gem I found on eMusic! Adamantra - For Ever: This is a Power/progressive outfit out of Finland. This is just their debut EP as they don't have a full album out yet (although one it supposedly coming out. In addition to the tracks on the EP, they just made...

Here is something totally kick-ass that I found on eMusic tonight! Winterborn - Cold Reality This is a really tight sounding melodic power/prog band out of Finland. I would recommend checking this out BTW, their official sight: http://winterborn.info/

I was just playing around on GarageBand.com, more due to being bored than anything, plus to see if I can dig up anything of any interest to me. I found this interesting little band called ARYA on there. This outfit out of Toronto has a pretty heavy groove to it, but very melodic. The lead...

I had an awesome time at BAR Fest and want to thank everyone there, staff, bands, and fans for the most kick-ass time. The show went together beautifully. Admittedly, I was a little skeptical, this being a "first effort" and was afraid it was all going to turn into one giant cluster-fuck...

Was friggan sweet to see Odin's Court performing in friggan San Francisco of all places! To bad I did not realize they started earlier than the ticket said otherwise, thus I, unfortunately, missed a good part of their set, but, I did managed to get a few shots of this glorious moment, though...

Is there public transportation from the airport to the downtown hotels? If not how much does a cab typically cost? My Thursday evening flight does not arrive until like 11PM (I have to leave from work, so I could not take an earlier flight).

Have anybody on here heard this yet? I just got a copy of it tonight, and this is FUCKING AWESOME!!!! Way better than thier last album, and to be honost, I think it is way better than Rhapsody (of fire)'s latest one! A beautiful mix of symphonic with some totally kick-ass guitar riffs...

I went and checked out the Jaxx site to see if anything interesting is coming up (as well as one of my friends called me up to tell me about it). Division will be fronting Doro! That is going to be friggan kick-ass! Well, obviously, when tickets become available, I'll be sure to get one...

That was a totally kick ass show tonight at Jaxx! Both Blind Guardian and Leave's Eyes did indeed deliver, although Leave's Eyes did run into some technical problems during thier set. I happen to run across one of the band members in the bathroom after the show and made a comment that I...

Just curious (don't know if this has been brought up before as the search funtion is about as useful as a screen door in a submarine). Does anybody have this or at least listened to it? I got it currently spinning in my CD player, and I have to admit - this has probably gotta be one of the...

Just tonight I was playing around on eMusic (especially as my 90 downloads per month renewed just this past week). I noticed Nuclear Blast seemed to be releasing quite a bit of thier catalog on there! This is just an example of what I saw/got on there as a result: Blind Guardian - A...

As much as I slam on AOL, but I gotta admit, this is pretty damn cool! Since AOL has opened up alot of thier content for free, and I had an old AIM account that I have not used in ages, I figured I'd try this AOL Radio out. I still cannot believe that I actually remembered my password as it...
