New Bands Announced For Chi-Town Powerfest

I have never thought of him as a troll. It's true that he doesn't necessarily share the love for all things power/prog, but he also doesn't make personal attacks upon people the way you attacked him. If anything, he brings a sense of realism to the board, and reminds people that the bands discussed on this board are not the be-all to end-all of the metal scene.

Just because someone is more of an extreme metal fan than a melodic metal fan doesn't make that person a troll.

I'm just sayin'...

I guess you and I think differently then. Oh well.
 
Though ever see Slayer in the 80s?
Complete bloodbath![/QUOTE]

Here, here! Hell yeah, Slayer shows in the '80's were bloodbaths and fun as hell! Though there certainly is a difference in the mosh styles between then and now. Even though back then, if you got tore up, people would just smile to one another and deal with it; just having a helluva good time. I don't actively join mosh pits these days but there are bands I MUST be down front for and I'll still gladly hold my own against the pit when it moves my way. Motorhead last year was quite a raucous show down front!
