If there are any Dio fans here, amazon.com's free download of the day is "Stand Up and Shout (Live)" from Holy Diver Live.

I would like to wish a happy birthday to the late Ronnie James Dio. He would be sixty-eight years of age today. Rest in Peace my fallen hero.

I just found some awesome news. The original Clash of the Titans line up of Anthrax, Megadeth, and Slayer are going to tour again. Megadeth is going to play Rust in Peace in full, while Slayer will be performing Seasons in the Abyss in full. Anthrax has Joey Belladonna back on lead vocals for good.

Man God Forbid have really good individual parts, they just are completely incapable of making an overall coherent sound.

Metal Gods · Jul 23, 2010

Well this is kinda late, but are there any fans of Coroner here? As of June 2010 the band has reformed and will play France's Hellfest Summer Open Air 2011 edition. A possible full-scale tour and new album are expected to follow.

Nevermore · Jul 23, 2010

Fucking <3 Coroner.

And the new album isn't much more than a rumour at this point from what I've read, at least one member said they'd only record based on their experience from touring (which also apparently decides if they're going to stay reformed or just tour a bit then quit again). That doesn't say anything about what the other members want to do.

though the prospect of possibly seeing Coroner is exciting enough for me tbh.

Deschain · Jul 23, 2010

listening to the new album from Slechtvalk, and it's pretty kickass. :naughty:

popololvic · Jul 26, 2010

I love metal... Suggesting Children of Bodom. ¨Children of Deacadence¨ ¨Done With Everything, Die For Nothing¨ are amazingly good.

No thank you, I hate melodeath.

Deschain · Jul 26, 2010

listening to this for the first time, and i like it quite a bit.

44 tracks is annoying though. fucking artistic license.

popemobile · Jul 26, 2010

I like melodeath but Children of Bodom is not a good band

Sounds like Fredrik Thordendal's Special Defects - Sol Niger Within; great album, fucking annoying amount of tracks (28/29 depending on the version)

You've obviously not heard Wintersun then.

this is waaaaaay more annoying, because it's like, each section of the song is a different track. like, intro for :29, then we go to the guitar solo for 1:02, then the bridge for :34...et cetera.

Sol Niger Within was actually 28/29 separate tracks that all flowed together.

also i can't wait for the next Defects album. :naughty:

I Didn't like it. I'm sorry melodeath is just not my thing.

sneeze · Jul 27, 2010

Nobody said Carcass? =p

Oh yeah, and I like Children of Bodom, Heaven Shall Burn, local stuff, Kataklysm, pirate thrash metal XD, etc.

Deschain said:
what other Opeth have you heard?

everything is exceptional except for Deliverance (which has grown on me quite a bit in the last few years) and Watershed (which i like less and less the more i listen to it...)

Hey, sorry for not replying pages ago. I've picked up a few other songs since, mostly from Ghost Reveries ("Reverie / Harlequin Forest" being my favorite from that album) and one or two from Damnation. And yeah, Watershed didn't do much for me either.

Deschain said:
check out the bands Leprous and Barren Earth.

i think you'll dig in a big way.

Barren Earth is really growing on me, thanks for looking out.

Has anyone heard the new Soilwork? It's still far from their best imo, but it easily beats Stabbing the Drama, their last album.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqGovxxanwo - "Two Lives Worth of Reckoning"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU5pAxVwkWk&feature=related - "The Akuma After Glow"

Hey guy, you like Children of Bodom so check out Kalmah.

Deschain · Jul 29, 2010

you need to listen to ALBUMS from Opeth, not songs. ;)

and what did you think of Leprous?

and check out Swallow the Sun: Hope

MetaNite · Jul 29, 2010

You guys probably know but the new Avenged Sevenfold album is out, Nightmare. It is REALLY good. My favorite song is probably Welcome to the Family or Fiction. Both are really cool.

Really? I could not care at all. "Nightmare" sounds like everything else Avenged Sevenfold has released, boring and terrible.

Metal Gods · Jul 29, 2010

Well Enforcer is having their latest album Diamonds for free download until 5:00 P.M. EST. Get it as soon as possible, great release of trad. heavy metal from Sweden.

Although they're metalcore, I am a HUGE fan of them. Plus, show some respect, their drummer died back in '09.

I am also practising the song on drums so I can cover it and maybe post it on You Tube. Double bass at solo = great fucking workout.
