Bolt Thrower? Sounds interesting. In my eyes, any band with a name like that deserves to be checked out (I did the same thing with Pig Destroyer :lol: )

Your cd shopping> mine. Though I don't need any more right now, Earth vs. The Wldhearts hasn't left my cd player since I got it :)
Glad you like it :) How many Wildhearts albums do you have now?
Sometimes I think maybe I buy too many, but then I remind myself that that's just crazytalk.
I've wanted these for quite some time now.
I was rather surprised to find Seven Churches. It wasn't particularly expensive either. Leviathan is the special edition (a second disc full of live versions and videos made it special) which was, for some reason, a full £5 cheaper than the regular version.
Bolt Thrower? Sounds interesting. In my eyes, any band with a name like that deserves to be checked out (I did the same thing with Pig Destroyer :lol: )
Bolt Thrower are excellent, old school, sludgy early 90s death metal. They were one of the first death metal bands I really heard, but this is the first album I've actually got by them.

Those 2 Dylan albums and Loveless are great, especially Highway 61 Revisited. :)
I'm really starting to develop a liking of Dylan, yeah. Loveless..so far I've only heard a couple of minutes of the first track (while copying it to my computer), but it was great. I'd not heard anything of it/them before, but I was won over by Scott Herren's appreciation of the album, and sr800bk's (I think) description of it being "like a orchestra of guitars cascading down from heaven", or something.
How many CDs have you got now, anyway?
rateyourmusic says 324, and I think it's accurate.

I have a giant 40 pound sledge hammer I made in metals class last year...ya it crushes any thing.
Plus it stands a good 4-5 feet tall, so you can get some leverage with it. Me and my friends took it to an old stove, and smashed the thing down to a good 6 inches tall.
We can so use that to kill that retard.

Yes, but the original intention of the Pit was to be a kind of rest area for the people who use the music forums. It was never supposed to have a reason for existing on it's own, and that's why it's now bad; it's almost entirely perishable and vacuous.

There was a thread in the Pit about this not too long ago, about how SFK had suggested that mx get rid of the Pit. The main argument against it was that all the Pit-dwellers would gravitate into other forums and infect them, making them into new Pits. For that reason I say the Pit should be kept around.

Well see, other forums have rules about this kind of stuff. And after awhile they would all be perma banned and such, since you know, the other mods are not as soft as the pit mods are.

I think it was a good idea. Of course it would have been bad at first, but things would have gotten much better later.
The pit used to be cool until the mods made is so that we weren't allowed to flame stupid people and so all of the idiots stayed.

You should listen to *insert random Jazz artist here*" and then Puzzle comes along and goes " yea he's good but yo ushould also listen to *insert random classical artist here* and then a a particualrly innovative noob comes along and tells them that Hammett is now the in thing and that everything they listen to sucks.

I agree with the part about VR putting on a great show despite the lack of good material, I think the inclusion of STP and Guns n Roses songs brought the quality of the whole show up, although VR do have some good tracks.
Highlight of the whole show for me was Mr Brownstone by far, it's one of my favourite GnR songs and seeing it live was top class.
Scott's megaphone through microphone crap got annoying about halfway through the first song, and he talked a load of bollocks in between songs. Having said that, my opinion on how talented each of the members are has risen a lot after last night.
Personally I thought the Datsuns were pretty cool, not my usual type of music but it was cool for a bit of dumb fun really, I would maybe go see them again depending on the price.

I forgot about the megaphone, he brought it out about a quater of the way through their set and never put it away, and he's way to skinny for his own good.
I thought the GNR covers were the best part of the night as well, but I was kinda pissed off at them as well because they're relying on the legacy of their old band's to please the fans.
And the Datsuns I thought were just way to generic Rock n roll for their own good.
Thier song formula = start of with clichéd rock riff, rest of the band joins in. Continue untill listeners are bored then spice up with a breakdown and go into solo bass and drums. Continue untill listeners looked bored and then kick back into clichéd riffage accompanied by solo in the minor pentatonic with wah. Continue until listeners look bored then end song. Repeat.
RockerGav
01-15-2005, 07:51 AM
I think he did put it away by the time they were back for their encores didn't he?
But yeah, he's way too skinny, and I think he tries to imitate Axl Rose a bit too much with his dancing and whatnot. I thought they had good stage presence all round as a band, most notably Duff and Slash.
To some extent I agree about the legacy issue, but then again; I'm not a big VR fan, I went so that I could see 3 GnR members play, as I may not get another chance, and frankly I would have been very disappointed to not see them do any GnR songs.
I agree that the Datsuns are very generic, but I don't really care, its the sort of generic(ness? genericicity?) that I can live with, because IMO right now few bands pull off 70s guitar rock quite so well.
munky_magik
01-15-2005, 07:56 AM
Yea, If they hadn't played any GNR songs I would've been mortified. They just can't win with me :p
I thought Dave Kushner had a pretty good stage presence as well.
And if the Datsuns had tried somthign new,I would've been more impressed. But If I realy want the authentic 70's rock sound, then I'll dig out my cds :p I see where you're coming from though as it's nice to see something a litttle bit differnt live.
RockerGav
01-15-2005, 08:01 AM
Yeah Kushner had good presence, he's actually a much better guitarist than I had given him credit for, I thought he was just a "go on stage, play the riffs, go home" kind of guy, but the duelling solos in Set Me Free impressed me.
And yeah, while the Datsuns aren't Deep Purple or Led Zeppelin, they put on a pretty good 70's rock impression for a live band.
At least its better than getting Funeral for a Freind like at Iron Maiden. :p

01-15-2005, 08:15 AM
