Yeah, I'm not sure if Bring the Pain of Bigger and Blacker are on CD either. Anyway, thanks for letting me know it exists, at least. I'll try and have a look around for it.

It's definitely worth looking for, I have to say.

Ray: I just glanced at your cd collection and was surprised to see Blackwater Park there......

Among all the classic rock and rap Opeth kind of seems wierd but still makes sense.

How does it make sense?

[Lord Abortion]

on racism in metal-
In BM circles, you see alot of bands that have racist beliefs, especially in the subgenre NSBM, I haven't really heard any of their music, and would perhaps feel a little uneasy doing it, mind you I listen to supposedly satanist bands and don't feel uneasy, and I listen to Varg who IS racist, I dunno, I just leave people's beliefs out of it because, although I really dislike racism, a prevalent opinion in a country school where there are about 3 black people in the school, I love Varg, for example's music...

that was a bit confused, sorry

[magicbus]

Thanks Ray.

I find myself liking Orchid and Morningrise a lot more than the other Opeth albums. Blackwater Park seems to be more aggressive in comparison to the other two. Orchid is hands down my favorite, I love the melodic, flowing riffs it has, and while the double bass rules, I also really like the slow drumming on some songs, like at the beginning of Forest Of October. And the growls are awesome, I definently can see myself craving them.

/listening to Orchid now. Unbelievable.

"To Bid You Farewell" is what made me check out Morningrise. My friend did a cover of it for a talent show, and I love the bassline in the first section.

Opeth seem to be the non DM liker's DM band if you know what I mean...

Not really DM at all except the growls.

Jom, I'm glad you have decided to impliment your new rule in the YSI thread, it's getting spammed to buggery and that's a shame because Other than that it's excellent

[Moses]

Someone said something about Mind of Mencia and asked for opinions.

I liked Mencia's stand-up on CCP:, but I hated his final routine where he just walked offstage. That was irritating.

The new show has its moments (once in a blue moon), but Mencia goes for cheap laughs with cracking jokes at different nationalities. Yes, I like jokes like this, and yes, I understand that if you're Hispanic that you're comfortable with your heritage by taking stabs at it, but when your entire show revolves around the same "style" of jokes, it gets really old really fast.

Take, for instance, his first show. The one where he says that his mom was a uterus with a head due to having seventeen siblings, then showing that street sign (the one that was supposed to symbolize 'Watch for Children' when he felt it showed immigrants crossing into the country), and then claiming that the fence around the studio was "the actual fence his parents hopped over." Borefest.
That was all just the first show, but yeah it can get pretty overdone. I liked the end where he showed GWB flipping off the camera. That was great. I also liked the Arabian commercials.

Thanks. I said earlier that I hoped I wouldn't have to resort to that, but now I'm going to have to. There really is no excuse for anyone in that thread to have more posts than I do in there, unless they're incredibly active with requesting/uploading.

By the time I come back to university, however, I will definitely be more active when it comes to uploading for others.

Basically, all I do now is upload for people who haven't had answers requested (that I have, anyway), and then wipe the list.

I'm taking all the thespark.com tests again, for the first time in years, I'm dying at 52 and I'm this :

You are a Mastermind!
(Submissive Introverted Abstract Thinker)
You are a MASTERMIND (SIAT). You can be silent and withdrawn, but behind your reserved exterior lies an active mind that allows you to analyze situations and come up with creative, unexpected solutions. Normal people call this scheming.

Anyway, your sense of style and originality are your strengths, and people will respect your judgment once they get to know you. If you learn to be a little more personable, you could be a great leader— you've definitely got the vision thing down. Just make sure all the plotting you do behind those eyes of yours is healthy.

Famous masterminds in television: Dr. Claw, The Scarecrow and Mrs. King, Montgomery Burns.


Compared to 14,734,714 other test takers...
9% are more Submissive than you.
77% are more Dominant than you.
14% are just as Submissive as you.
3% are more Introverted than you.

I didn't get around to voting, but I definately would have went Geezer.

One solution could be to make brand new accounts unable to participate in polls, for a short period of time, but I don't think that would solve anything. They could pre-sign up.

[munky_magik]

who else?
Tool fanboys invalidated the results from the greatest album competition. I'm sure there are a few guilty parties elsewhere as well.

It's not specific fanboys that are the problem, just fanboys in general.

One solution could be to make brand new accounts unable to participate in polls, for a short period of time, but I don't think that would solve anything. They could pre-sign up.
That would involve an admin re-setting the rights for all new users which is, I think, taking it too far.
Anyway, that's not exactly fair on the people who would vote wisely.

another suggestion I saw is that only people who have started a (legal) thread can vote.That would be almost impossible tio implement, and again unfair on people that just haven't started any threads.

[Stoic]

Yeah, that would take too much work.

And on top, dicks could still abuse it. If, even though the admin reset the thing, people were still doing it though, that's goddamned immature.

Anyway, that's not exactly fair on the people who would vote wiselySame basic concept as not allowing brand new accounts to make threads.

And how do you decide who's suspicious?
And how much time do you think a mod would actually want to waste on that?

What if they had to have a certain amount of posts?
Again; Difficult to implement and unfair on people who just haven't posted much.
Even then people would spam there way to the limit easily.

Same basic concept as not allowing brand new accounts to make threads.
That's to limit the amount of people that join up to create spam thread which is, I feel, a slightly more important matter than having to wait to vote because a few fanboys upset a poll result.

Just look at the votes cast!
how many of those voters have ever posted here?

You get lurkers who sign up because they want to help out their favourite bassist/whatever.

because as a bassist he has influenced most people in the field of metal bass.

He plays all those galloping basslines without a pick, and is the driving force behind maiden's sound, and the head of the band, without him there would be no maiden, and without maiden there would be no power metal, not thrash metal, therefore no death or black metal...

Yes, it was annoying how the Tool fanboys ruined my album poll.

Ollie, yeah, Maiden was a huge influence, but Speed Metal was invented before their time, so Thrash and Power metal would most likely have still developed, albeit without Maiden's influence on their sound.

Well, damnation in my opinion is a terrible album, especially for a supposed progressive band, considering the songs are so predictable.

Then again i am part of the crowd that listen to all the bands similar to Opeth but do it much better, whereas after listening to opeth for so many years have just grown so tired of them.


I have begun to accept pantera as good, walk is a great song I had the problem of only having listened to cemetary gates, thought WTF? and said they were crap.

With that in mind, have you heard Exhorder at all? you know, the band that pantera owes 100% of their carrear to.

And Leah, ill upload an arghoslent song tomorrow for you, for i am quite drunk and have to get up early to do a lot of administrative bullcrap tomorrow. If you dont like it it, then fine, but it is definitely worth checking them out despite their racist tendencies.

Drone is the most thoroughly unfunny yet persistent trolls MX has ever experienced. Way back in December I called him on a really douche-baggy post he made in the genres thread, and two months later he spontaneously reappears being an even bigger dumbass than before.

The flame war went on for a little while before Bart called for a cease fire. I complied, but Drone kept up his petty behavior and got banned.

What followed was a campaign of idiotic and ineffectual savagery in which Drone kept making new accounts every couple of hours every day to alternately appeal his bans which were coming in within hours of his making the account and attacking me (resulting in aforementioned bans).

This went on for a while. Like almost a month. Then, he just vanished. Now he's back.

I basically speak to them in slow, clear English, whilst I go with them to various tourist destinations, all of them beautiful and unique to the Far North. :D

Work sucked some major bum hole this morning. First my mom bitched at me because I asked for 30 cents so I would have enough for a cup of coffee. Then I lost a load of plywood off the back of my truck and I had to track it down, then some **** head of a German guy came in and asked me to cut some plywood for him, I did that then he freaked out because I didn't cut it in 10 ft lengths, instead of the usual 4 ft lengths but he took it anyway. Then I went to lunch and listened to Tool, then it was all better.

Hehe, that's right. I like 'em.

[Riva]

ATTN: Anyone knowledgeable about the subject: What's the best way to get pot out of your system for a drug test?

Sorry to interrupt discussion for this.

In 3 days, it won't be active in your bloodstream, however, it takes a week for it (the THC) to be completely undectable via bloodtest. And I am afraid you are stuck with it in your body fat for a few years to come.

[ATM]

ATTN: Anyone knowledgeable about the subject: What's the best way to get pot out of your system for a drug test?

Sorry to interrupt discussion for this.

Sup?

Basically, you really need 2 solid weeks to get rid of any THC in your system.

Drink a lot of cranberry juice and water.

The day of the test, drink a ton of water, especially right before you go in.

When did you smoke and when is the test?

[Lunch]

I smoked a week ago, but only two hits, then I smoked three days before that, but again only two hits. And the test is tomorrow/wednesday (maybe).

[ATM]

Make sure you drink a lot of water the day of, and right before you go in.

[magicbus]

What are you getting drug tested for?

[Lunch]

I'm trying to drink a lot right now and at all times leading up to the test.

[Riva]

I'm guessing for rep sport.

Also, eat lots of chocolate, and when you come to the results of the test, blame any residuals on second hand smoke.

A job.

[Kurtz]

If the piss is pale, then they would think that whoever the person was had tried to flush the traces of drugs out of them.

Yeah, I have doubts that a drug test could be passed if you still have the thc in your system.

They can't do anything about that really, and my options are have clear piss and pass or don't drink water and likely fail.

Plus, along with Jom's idea, it's like 95 degrees here, they can't get on my case for drinking water.

[Riva]

Drink the water, eat the chocolate, and then make sure that any residuals get explained away as 'second hand inhalation from parties'.

[Lunch]

Does chocolate really do anything?

[RiceMonster]

Does chocolate really do anything?
I'd still do it anyways, because even if it turns out to do nothing, it won't have done any harm.

[ATM]

And it tastes good.

[Riva]

Well, supposedly the active chemicals that make chocolate addictive and impart a sense of euphoria or happiness are similar in structure, but dominant to chemicals like THC. So, it basically has a masking affect.

And besides, it should make you less depressed/worried about the test.

[Lunch]

I think I should smoke some pot to relax myself.

Chocolate sounds like a good idea.

I also hate that there isn't an ounce of chocolate in my house.

It's better when they gas you. What I like about when I get numbed up on one side of my face is when I drink water (or any liquid) I can only feel half of it go in my mouth, it just trips me out a little.

[GaggingOrder]

I haven't had that. However, I've thrown up water that was already in my mouth. Atleast, it felt like throwing it up, and that was wierd.

I never get the Flouride crap. That stuff ruins me. I had to get it twice the time before last because I messed up the first time. I could have killed someone right then and there and not felt any remorse.

[Bazarov]

Flouride doesn't bother me one bit. The dentist is okay, I just hate it when I have a clumbsy dentist assistant who doesn't know how to stick the needle in me, and is hesitant and doesn't know how to use the instruments proper.

Last time I went to the dentist, the did the dental X-Rays just fine, and I went with my brother, and the dumb blonde assistants made us do the X-Rays again so the two assistants could compete to see who made better photos. :rolleyes:

What kind of job does drug testing?

Yeah many jobs in the states drug test now, which means i need to lay off the whacky tobaccy soon or else nobody is going to hire me at all. Then again, I could always go back to cooking, thats guaranteed to not have a drug test involved because half the employees at any given restaurant arent even legal citizens.

It's better when they gas you. What I like about when I get numbed up on one side of my face is when I drink water (or any liquid) I can only feel half of it go in my mouth, it just trips me out a little.

I prefer novacaine heavily because i can still drive just fine to leave the dentist afterwards and do not have to make special arrangements in order to get home.

The teacher I had sucked I suppose. He was ignorant, unorganized and never prepared for the lesson plus he was always 20 min late. He was wasting all the time writing stuff on my notebook (like he couldnt prepare the notes before the lesson) and never bothered to show me songs I cared about (oh yeah, I forgot, next time etc). Pretty bad experience for a guitar newbie but I bet he was just the case.

my cousin (who is an Indie kid, but still cool) says that it's a good Uni for the metal scene, I want to go there but would actually prefer a scottish uni because of the exta subjects you can take, (I would choose Philosophy and History) and the extra year means I can put off real life for another year

Well I'm taking philosophy, so I suppose that bit doesn't apply. You can take electives (subjects outside your primary subject) in your first year of university at most universities anyway, though.

After Randy Rhoads, there's Yngwie Malmsteen, and then an overview of the pressure to theorize music that existed in the '80s, and a discussion of "shred" and the speed vs. emotion argument omnipresent when discussing technical playing.

EDIT: Jake: That's 'cause Ken's NEVER ONLINE. I haven't seen him mod R+M in a long while. Matter of fact, Bartender is still a "surrogate" mod because his name isn't even listed under R+M's mod domain.

Not that I'm hawking for a replacement or anything.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

He was on last night. :confused:

NP: Meshuggah-Corridor of Chameleons

:eek: This song owns hxc.

Oh, and also hop onto AIM for a couple of minutes if you want a good laugh, Cain.

[Six Foot Revolver]

Man! I made that giant list of threads for Ken to put in the rules, but it's not even in there. :angry: I included every series I could find on the first 20 pages, and a few other threads, including yours, GO.

What a waste of time. :fistshake:
Ken is not the only mod who can put it in the rules

He's probably around alot more often than you think, you just don't realise it becuase he doesn't post.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

I also asked Bartender, 6FR. :-/

Ken is on AIM quite often. I only ever see him post in the ask/suggest thread and in the Tool thread, but still, not too often.

[NJMetalMeister]

I believe it. I think tomorrow I'll do it. I'll ask to stay on for another two weeks and then split. God knows some of the other people they have available need the hours: they've got people working one or two days a week at that place. Not the most lucrative job ever. :rolleyes:

I just can't take the atmosphere. It's so much harsher than it was at my old job.

EDIT: My threads always die after less than twenty-four hours. :(

The trick is, once you put in your two weeks notice, you do the best you have ever done in that job, this way if by chance a possible new employer does call your former jobs, the managers will remember you being great at your job because it will be the most fresh in their mind.

My spotlight threads took weeks before it started to catch on. Don't feel too bad.

I think most of the problem is that guys like you and I write threads that require more than 3 seconds of attention span.

I appear to have a similar problem, i think its more a factor of the bands I write about only appeal to like 5 people on these boards thuogh. :lol:

Edit:

To whomever wanted me to post some exhorder mp3s (i think it was Ollie but not totally sure and im too lazy to look), unfortunately the exhorder mp3s on my mp3 player got corrupted somehow, and only dead air plays when i transfer them to my laptop. If youre willing to wait a week for me to get back to the states and re-rip them, then thats fine, but youll probably have to remind me in a week :p

[clearvision]

Anyone noticed similarities between so tired by ozzy and mr loneley by akon?

[Stoic]

going to one,I'm going to be in a state of excitement for a year at the prospect of going, I'm applying to sofar;
LEEDS-english/theatre studies
YORK-english literature
GLASGOW- ''
EDINBROUGH- ''
WARWICK- ''

I followed your discussion with Bartender but still I cant understand how things work there. So, you send your bio to a Uni and you're accepted. Then what? Just take random lessons you like? When do you decide about your profession?

I think most of the problem is that guys like you and I write threads that require more than 3 seconds of attention span.

It's not only this, it's the nature of these threads: they're more informative than discussable. I mean, I dont have problem reading your article but then I dont know what to post. "Good job, well done, I didnt know this band etc", the posts you get standard and typical...

I appear to have a similar problem, i think its more a factor of the bands I write about only appeal to like 5 people on these boards thuogh.

I'm one of those people :thumb:

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

NJMetalMiester- Did you get your named changed? What was it originally?

Ok guys. I now officially deem Arcturus to be as badass as Bobo says. You must download some. It's flatout amazing. :-D

So uhh, M&R is extremely dead today. :upset:

[Thor]

Agreed. R&M has been dead for the past few weeks if you ask me.

[Mr. Squiggles]

[superpeer]

Maybe everyone got a life. :eek:

[clearvision]

Nah, thats never gonna happen...

[Lord Abortion]

right- MF
you apply to several universities and if they want you, you accept one offer and go,
that's the course you take for your degree. You can also choose other subjects to take if you are intrested like Bart said, but in scotland you can change to your other subject for your degree if you don't like the one you chose.

hmm...for example if you want to be a psychologist, you take lessons more or less related to psychology, right? Supposing you have watched and passed these lessons, then you automatically take a degree in psychology? :confused:

Maybe everyone got a life.

You're scaring me...:angry:

[superpeer]

Well, here you go everyone.

Me and my girl, in the basement of her house, which has all kinds of cool things, several keyboards, guitars, lots of sound stuff and a bar... We're normally both blonde, as you may or may not know, but it's dark in the basement. I'm also obviously shredding like hell. I also look kind of weird in that pic, but yeah, maybe I AM weird.

[Stoic]

It's good to have someone to share the same interests with, lucky you :)

I'm not...and still no life. MX is an evil place. Once you stick for a while, you never leave again :evil:

Yep, you need a lot of luck to find a girl who likes (good) metal and likes all the other genres you like as well. Etc.

Well, I'm off to bed, gotta get up in 7 hours for work.

:wave:


nah... we're MUSCICIANS!

That doesn't mean you can start sucking at spelling, all of a sudden.

[Stoic]

sleep well!

I didnt even notice it! Is it contagious or something?

Listen to Deadwing first. It's excellent. I was addicted to it for like a month. :-/

Sadly, it's the only one that I have heard out of the ones you mentioned. :lol:

[Stoic]

nice haul you have. Human changed my musical direction.

[Lord Abortion]

wireless is gay

MF- (I forget your real name)

you can take a range of stuff it doesn't have to be connected with your main course

[Stoic]

MF- (I forget your real name)

maybe because I've never mentioned it? :p

That was the worst musical experience I've had since listening to Scott Stapp sing "God Bless America."

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Cain, what's up with your user title?

[MBS]

:lol:

:lol:

They claim it was their best song. The guitarist doesn't even tune his guitar because he says "it was tuned when he bought it". I'm ashamed to say these are my peers at school.

Edit: Cain - Is your avatar from Dogma? Brilliant movie.

But it's Matt Damon.

[Lunch]

It looks like one of the Bourne movies.

Edit: That was one of the stupidist things I have ever heard, Your right that did suck but it was funny as hell.

[Lord Abortion]

haha, I just remembered, Jamie Blunt is the name of some god-awfully gay singer/pianis(t) that is number one in the charts over here, and I had a good laugh at his name and proceeded to sing the song from Jay and silent bob strike back- "who smokes the blunts?... we smoke the blunts!"

anyway, dead this place is so bed it is time for...

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

The Bourne movies freaking own. I wish I would have read the books first though. Hell, I wish I would have read the books period! :lol:

[Mr. Squiggles]

I thought the first one was good but the second one was boring. The first three times I tried to watch it I fell asleep and when I finaly did stay awake, I was extreamly bored by it and kept finding other things to do.

[Lunch]

The Second was wasn't as good, the way the fight scenes were filmed was especially weak.

[ATM]

Jake, I tried what you said, and listen to how bad my tone is :(

Your right, the fight scenes sucked.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Really? I liked the second one more than the first. My favorite part of the first one is where Bourne jumps down like 5 stories, and lands on the dead body. It's wicked. :p

[Mr. Squiggles]

I thought the first one was great. And when the second one was coming out I was like "I have to see this movie" then I did and I didn't like it. But the first one was sweet.

Yeah dude, Can't you see this man needs you help.

[ATM]

I cranked the gain, turned the mids and highs to 0, and put the bass to 4. It still sounds like anus.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Ok, I shall listen to it when I get back from work. :-D

[RCA]

Man, I have the worst sunburn ever. :(

How is everybody?

[Lunch]

I managed to postpone my test, but I'm still worried about it.

Sorry to keep talking about it though.

[RCA]

What kind of test? :confused:

[Lunch]

A drug test I have to take in order to get a job.

Why would you be worried about that. :lol:

Dragunov, thats sucks about your sunburn. I get burnt all the time it sucks because you can't really sleep

[Lunch]

Yea, I smoked a bit about a week ago, it really wasn't that much but I'm still worried about it. I've been drinking so much water last night and today.

[Mr. Squiggles]

Yeah, it takes about a week for that stuff to ware off.

Usually more, but considering how little I smoked and how much water I've had I think I should be in good shape.

I had the hardest time falling asleep last night. I felt like I was being immolated. :(
