Ever hear of a little band called Nightrage? lol Gus used to do guitars & death vocals before Lindberg joined.

And Firewind is opening this tour. Divine Heresy (even though they suck) is way bigger in the US than Firewind.

Oh and Gus isn't in Arch Enemy anymore.

Oh I know Nightrage for sure, fuckin' love them. Oh, also briefly met Marios in Copenhagen since he was with Firewind. Heck, I'm probably the biggest deathhead in this forum and I pretty much stand alone haha. But what I meant, was I wanted the Firewind lineup to write a death metal song. THAT would be something really interesting.

Or maybe some black metal. After all, Gus contributed on an Old Man's Child song and Bob used to be in a black metal band (right?) and is good friends and directed a video of Rotting Christ, so it's not like he's sonically averse to that genre.

he just did the vocals at the beginning though, then they hired Tomas "Tompa" Lindberg for their first album. this video is the only 'trace' left of him singing (and perhaps some unknown demos).

BTW, have you heard their first album, 'sweet vengeance'? it's got a couple of excellent songs there! try and listen to 'the glow of the setting sun' and 'circle of pain'... omg, they're sooooo lovely (even though i'm not into death so much...)

circle of pain: (the guitar solo reminds me of firewind so much! well that's because gus plays it!!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wzYpl6ZEaA

Oh I know. You don't have to tell me about Gus... I've been a fan of his bands for years. I have all 3 Nightrage albums. Great stuff.

Um, no 'probs'.

Most people on here have all the aforementioned cd's or have heard them. And as for the second part directed at Eddie, well, Gus left Nightrage in what, March '06? His musical tastes were never particularly of the death genre anyway and his musical influences have obviously changed (as does everyone's be it for better or worse) in 2 years. In those 2 years he's done 2 albums with Firewind. But different from Nightrage.

Anyway, Nightrage were a bit melodic to be classes as pure Death Metal. I believe most people on the forum (although by "everyone" I have no idea who you are referring to) who said 'death metal' I think meant a band like Devourment, Infernal Revulsion or Degrade just as a few bands off the top of my head.

-SpikeMilan- · March 6th, 2008, 04:17 AM

Devourment haha. Gus writing slam-death, that would be interesting for sure. And yes, since I was one of the people who said "how would it be", Kirsty got it on the money. I meant the really brutal stuff.

Kirst-ehhh · March 6th, 2008, 04:37 AM

Haha. Devourment are pretty horrific!

-SpikeMilan- · March 6th, 2008, 04:46 AM

pro4lpha · March 7th, 2008, 01:35 PM

mmmmm arch enemy, dark tranquility, firewind. who cares if firewind is the odd man out. they all rule

I havent heard any divine heresy.

Katie'Force · March 9th, 2008, 04:35 PM

rather jealous about this, would love to see divine heresy and firewind on the same tour, mark cross and tim yeung, both legends!

-SpikeMilan- · March 10th, 2008, 10:55 AM

Yesh, Tim Yeung is amazing. I haven't heard Simonetto live, but I think Yeung should go back to Hate Eternal.

Katie'Force · March 10th, 2008, 11:06 AM

can't say i know any of Tim's old bands, but I love Divine Heresy, it was brilliant seeing them back in december, even though i almost broke my nose after Tommy kicked my in the face twice and elbowed me in the nose. bless him, when i told him later he had no idea he'd even done it, kept apologising for ages haha

Kirst-ehhh · March 10th, 2008, 12:02 PM

Pfft. Yeung. Whatever. It's YOUNG. That's how it's SUPPOSED to be spelt

xx Kirsty

-SpikeMilan- · March 10th, 2008, 12:06 PM
