What's the good Cryptopsy album? All the ones I heard (I think I only listened to 2), I didn't like.

Maybe Thrice? I dunno, I love The Artist In The Ambulance, but I really don't like any of their other albums. I mean, they're OK but they don't seem to come close to that album. Not sure if that's what other people think, though.

And Battle of Mice, but they only have one album so yea.

A fanboy is a devoted follower who will defend a band to whatever end. A fan is just someone who enjoys a band's music.

I like Opeth, but I don't think they're anywhere near being the greatest band in the world at all and I think they're horribly overrated by critics. I'm a fan, not a fanboy.

I think it's difficult to make a clear comparison between the two, but what you say makes perfect sense. Not an amazing band, but well worth the praise and attention they get, in my opinion.

Permanent Solution

Just once a week.

I need to talk to our faculty director though because I really would like to expand the metal programming at our station so we had a new metal/local bands night, and then another night of more free form stuff with a few new albums but a focus on a broader range of stuff. It would be really hard to do a night of one genre since it's only once a week and all my labels would get mad at me for not playing any new music :(

Benzum
02-09-2008, 03:45 PM
Yeah sounds like it could expand the show, there could be legal issues though, beware!
It's funny actually, smaller stations get told off for not playing any new music, and the bigger stations get it for playing the same tracks, at this level.

Haha there always are :(

Small stations don't get the label contacts, but as it turn out the label contacts are pushy and try to make you play their stuff a lot. It's hard to push back and be like "um, this isn't good, but send me your next CD and maybe it will be better" =\

If they bore you, it's because their drummer doesn't have a sufficient number of toms.

In defense of Opeth...

It seems like their average cd is probably 55-70 minutes in length, that is their main problem. There is usually 30 minutes of great stuff on their, but it's finding it in all the songs that drains people sometimes. For example, Reverie Harlequin Forest has an awesome ending...but you have to sit through the middle 6 minutes that are terribly bland and boring. (the beginning of the song is great too)
