The more I listen to Masterplan - Aeronautics, the higher it goes on my list, its anything but redundant. Its a great album and Jorn always has trhe great vocal hooks and harmonies!!!

Hmmm... I initially wrote this CD off as being generic. Maybe I'll go back and give it a another spin.

I remember the good old days when you used to talk about melodic death. Are you censoring yourself for this forum, or are you not into the more extreme material anymore? Don't worry, I won't add you to any e-mail lists (or e-mail you at all - I know how you hate that) if I find out you like, say, the brilliant Dark Tranquillity - Character or Fear My Thoughts - Hell Sweet Hell.

Neither - you just have the wrong DarkOne. The other Dark One (note the space) from Philly is more extreme. I'm the wimpy one

Steve in Philly

John, the Dark One you're thinking about is Jason, not Steve. Jason posts here occasionally, but much more frequently on the Royal Carnage forum.

Not true. You yourself posted to a thread, on this very forum, where we were discussing Trivium.

My mistake. Thanks. Too many Robert Jordan fans on this board. :hotjump:

Rob Rock - Holy Hell (If you don't like this, then you don't like metal)

Aw shit man, I don't like that album. And here I was thinking I was a Metal fan.


Now I have to seriously re-evaluate the CD's and tapes in my collection that I now know are just masquerading as Metal CD's. Damn it all...

You really know how to ruin a day.

If it's done right, anyways.

Dude, I hate to break it to you, but you don't like metal...

I prefer the metal that's not done right btw...
