Raintime - Flies & Lies (+ a tour suggestion for Intromental)

[TheGraveDigger]

I know many of you have this album already but I finally just downloaded it from ITunes and man am I blown away. This is amazing stuff. I totally agree with Glenn and others when they say Children of Bodom meets Skid Row. You can not be more on the money with that comparison. I would love to hear these guys do a cover of Slave to the Grind or Youth Gone Wild. I think the results would be amazing. Speaking of covers... Beat It? Oh my goodness, when I first heard this song and realized it was a Michael Jackson cover I was like "what the fuck?" Seconds later I was totally jamming, that is one fuck of a cover. I love when metal bands do stuff like that, just like when Mercenary covered "Music Non Stop". This is amazing stuff.

So now on to my tour suggestion I would love to see Glenn and the boys put something together with Raintime, Mercenary, and Pagans Mind. That would just be a sick tour.

Nice, didn't realize they had another one. Gotta look into that.

You know the singer did Youth Gone Wild at PPUSA right?

Kinda makes me sad that people have no idea that Lemur Voice did a much better cover of Beat It way back when. Raintime rocks though. Great album.

Wow I had no idea. Is there video footage anywhere?

Probaly on the DVD, but why didn't you get an album before PPUSA ??

It's been a rough year for me and I have not been able to keep up with concerts and cds the way I normally do. I am just getting around to alot of what I missed now.

That's rough, both shitty year and not enjoying Raintime to the fullest.

Music Non-Stop by Mercenary > ALL

Best cover I've ever heard. And Kent kick butt too.

+1

That was a fun cover! I first heard it the morning of the first ProgPower Europe in 1999, and later when we were hanging out with the guys in LV, it was sometimes hard to keep a straight face.

Raintime rocks though. Great album.

Also +1
