[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]Dragonforce? I like them a lot. They have really catchy, uplifting music with some insane guitar playing. I bought Sonic Firestorm a while back but haven't listened to it much. I should pull it out again.[/QUOTE]

Insane is an understatement...

Their powertabs are really depressing to me, as a guitarist. :(

I know what you mean. :( I listen to that and feel like "Jesus, why do I even bother trying when there are guys who can pull this off mindlessly?"

I hate Dragonforce. Talk about repetition. Every song sounds EXACTLY THE SAME. It's always the same super fast intro with leads, super fast verse, extremely cheesy chorus, 12 minute solo duel, and the outro is the intro again. Every song sounds just like the next, I can't distinguish them.

[QUOTE=MRDuCran]Searched Google images for Alexi Laiho, show only medium sized images, cause the avatars have to be 70x70 pixels, which sucks.

Can you send me Sonic Firestorm by any chance?

Sure. You wanted Tokyo Warhearts too, right?

Yeah, I find them a bit repeatative and annoying too.

[QUOTE=I_am_hated]lol what do u think of this one?[/QUOTE]
Alexi with booze, pretty nice.

[QUOTE=I_am_hated]lol what do u think of this one?[/QUOTE]
Hey, I know that guy! It's Alexi Laiho, lead vocalist/guitarist/songwriter of a band called Children of Bodom!

I like it. :cool:

Is that Alexi, he's got black hair, looks more like Jordison.

If it were Jordison, he'd have a white face with black paint.

Yeah its Alexi he does kinda favor Joey but its most deff. Alexi :)

[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]If it were Jordison, he'd have a white face with black paint.[/QUOTE]

Yeah but Jordison looks like that with his mask off. I can see it's Alexi if I zoom in.

That's true, but I've never seen Jorison without the mask.

There you go. He looks pretty much the same with or without the mask. :lol:

You're right, he does.

Strange, I never pictured him looking like that.

Looking at Corey Taylor was even more of a shock for me.

With the mask:

It's a real shocker.

I've known what Corey Taylor looks like. His picture is all over the inside of the Stone Sour album.

Oh, that's right. I've never really listened to Stone Sour before, so that's probably why it was a shocker for me.

Is Stone Sour any good?

Yeah, its like a mellow Slipknot

I like them. They're a more mellow heavy metal band compared the the other things the Slipknot guys have done. The vocals and solos are great.

Yeah I really love the vocals on that SS album too.

Are they coming out with any new material?

[QUOTE=flamesofbodom]Yeah, its like a mellow Slipknot[/QUOTE]
So does it kind of sound like Slipknot's latest album? Some of the tracks on that seemed pretty mellow.

Stone Sour is more along the lines of Before I Forget.

They're starting something soon

[QUOTE]So does it kind of sound like Slipknot's latest album? Some of the tracks on that seemed pretty mellow.[/QUOTE]I guess you can put it that way. Corey doesnt really scream in that band though. I find some songs, like Monolith, more melodic than Slipknot material

Well, I might give it a try eventually, but I'm more in a black metal and power metal phase right now.

Finally! I've been waiting for new Stone Sour for a while. I think their only downfall is that they don't solo nearly enough.

I hate Slipknot and Stone Sour, I could never get into the nu-metal thing.

Vol.3 is the only Slipknot album I like. Stone Sour isn't nu metal though. They're more along the lines of traditional heavy metal, maybe even rock. Aside from that, I could never stand the genre either.

Stone Sour are not nu-metal. They sound more rock to me

[QUOTE=flamesofbodom]Stone Sour are not nu-metal. They sound more rock to me[/QUOTE]
They're hard rock, period.

I haven't heard enough Stone Sour to remember what it was, I just remember immensly hating it.

Understandable. They're much more media friendly than other metal/Slipknot. They're kind of a guilty pleasure for me.

There was somethng about the vocals that bothered me. Some things I don't know why I hate but they just bother me.

[QUOTE=IheartSP]bother[/QUOTE] :p

Everyone should be watching fox right now :thumb:

I get that feeling all the time. Mostly with modern pop punk/emo/rock bands and their vocals. I don't know why, but I just can't stand it in the least.
