slipknot r00l

are you metal?

yes

so you're saying that good Metal is famous for the right reasons and bad Metal is famous for the wrong ones?

do you see the problem with that?

It'd be like Montyclift commenting on a Block review...

SHUT YOUR FUCKING TRAP PETER

WHAT I SAY IS FACT AND DON'T QUESTION IT

DOING SO MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE THE GLOWING BLOCKED OSOPHEGOUS HIPSTER SCUM YOU REALLY ARE

METAL

what is an osophegous?

An ancient Egyptian tomb made of bone and designed to hold the corpse of Dr Seuss. Don't tell me I don't understand metal. Or even METAL.

I LOVE PETAL!

at my local music stores theres a very big fluro painting on the front window.....
METAL CDS $10.......... bargain

I know nothing about metal but am interested in exploring speed metal.

Can anyone help by suggesting any speed metal songs that veer towards rockabilly I could try? But not psychobilly. It has to be fast.

I have lots of motorhead, deep purples’ speed king, snakepit by whiplash, and that’s about it. I’ve tried bulldozer and x japan without taking to it. I loathe metallica. A friend is advising on slayer. There are more bands here but I don’t know what is what. I would prefer not to listen to bands that feature men in lycra, nor do I want to get into the culture.

I just want to listen to new stuff I haven’t heard before, any advice appreciated

Megadeth's ''Rust in Peace'' album is a corker if you can get past Dave's voice.
Try some DragonForce, and even Dillinger Escape Plan for some variations on the theme.

I almost shat when i saw Warrant in that list, but it's a different band apparently.

I think Dave's voice is stunning, but I seem to be in the minority.

There's always Anthrax...

classic control freak I reckon, just couldn't hand the reins over to someone else even though he knows he's not that good.

I remember watching him being interview at 4ZZZ many years ago, the rest of the band just sort of sat there and knew their place. I always felt sorry for Marty.

thanks!

i'm liking the prisoner song on that megadeth album - will listen more after work. didn't like dragonforce - vocal sounded like a lycra wearer. dillinger escape plan sounds interesting - will listen more later

I know a little bit about black sabbath, hmmm and a tad about 80s hair metal, and something about metallica and hp lovecraft and alchemist and the corner hotel in the early 90s but aside from that yes I'm a fuck that knows very little about metal.

oh a tuning down to c/// which would be better in b

I can't think of anything more interesting or relevant to this thread than telling us that you know HP Lovecraft and went to the Corner Hotel twenty years ago. No, really, it's extremely valuable.

Again, I ask: who are you talking to?

He spends all day talking to himself on here in an effort to avoid spending time with his kids.. it's the Eltham way of bringing up little bastards who'll follow the same trend.

hello...???sailor. looks angry those words. maybe put them in chronological order as they came to your mind

like 'trend' would of been first I rekcons..

angelic, you're so incoherent I now just assume you're always drunk when you post, so I can never work out what you're talking about. Seriously, I have no idea what anything you've said today means.

oh well enjoy reading dr zuess books then. when you get to 'big' words let me know.

Please. If you had an active vocabulary you'd know that put them in chronological order as they came to your mind is at least fifty percent redundant.

oh well enjoy reading dr zuess books then.

You also might want to work on your spelling.

yeah you might like to work on yr mind. expand it. like you know...instead of learning everything from someone else, go learn something for yrself. goodo! or play golf. or walk heaps, people that walk heaps actually think. golf you get to add the exclamation point at the end of the thought as you hit the little golf ball!

Eldritch, I am an environmentalist yet I used to play in a band with Striborg. Am I metal?

Look, you obviously want to have an argument with someone who isn't me, or want me to have traits that you're capable of arguing against rather than the traits I actually possess, so I might just mark you as a dickhead and let you just type whatever you want from now on, okay?

I don't care. you attacked me, you seem lame. do what you want. I won't care. not my problem if you are inert of the mind.

eek! hahaha

jeez that all seems a little unnecessary

Just wasting time listening to Mayhem before my afternoon stroll.

fyi i'm making my way through the listening list - will report on findings/purchases once done.

Have you tried High On Fire, MA? As a long time Motorhead I thought they were worth a giggle. It's not really speed metal, but it's fast, heavy and contains no high pitched vocals.

sounds nice - will add to list of ones to listen to more properly. thank you!

eg. hung drawn and quartered
