anyone heard of the internet radio site Pandora.com?

Dragon Of Earth · July 12th, 2008, 03:22 AM

i just heard of it this am, i've been on just gatehring new bands and listening to some bands i already liked (eg. Amon Amarth)

so far it's sweet. i mean typing in the band name, song, album or music genre is (obviously) easy and being able to take stuff off of one station and move it to a (more suited) station you started is cool. . though i haven't tried to add anything to a station yet... right now i'm listening to Amon Amarth - Down The Slipery Slopes Of Death, why wasn't i informed about this earleir? HEADS WILL ROLL

Because you're behind the times.

I've been listening to that for about a year, then got kicked off because they can't let non USA users use it for legal reasons

aw that sucks, sorry man. and i think it's because my usual circle of friends isn't up on things comp. wise, even though 2 even know how to buld 'em, but i've never heard of this from any of 'em.. i'm telling you heads WILL roll on this one

good thing soulseek

and on most occasions myspace having a special band page to listen to songs

i've bought so many albums because of p2p programs like soulseek... and becuase of myspace. and soon to be because of pandora

but amon amarth was on a blind buy. i heard how good they were on a metal board, and some info about them (thanks to same board, and also www.metal-archives.com 's info

and i saw them in the store and HAD to leave with a new CD that day, so i left with Fate Of Norns and been an AA fan ever since. i'm still pissed about the avenger being stolen though

Pandora is pretty cool, I have that. Used to listen to ChroniX but then it went all pussified on me. Started playing way more "pop" metal. Le Blows.
I listen to Music Choice and AOL radio a lot. I'd hate to admit this, cuz I hate AOL, but their metal station isn't too bad.
Anyone know of any good metal stations on the net?

for pandora: i just click the thumbs down option on the song playing on pandora if i don't like it (for whatever reason) and if a band gets 2 thumbs downs (i think it is) then they're removed from that particular station (whatever you'd have it named) i get a somewhat decent balance. but i've only been using it for not even a full day, but i'm liking it a lot so far.... wel see if hte novelty wears off and how soon (if it does)

OF TOPIC: i'm jones'n for the new AA album....
