The Melvins are playing near me soon, I must go!

pentagram is awesome if they are considered doom.

They are, and they are.

Yeah, that would be a good show.

I wish Boris would come to the US

They are...I'm seeing them October 15th.

I'm a fairly massive Stoner/Doom fan. Mastodon was one of my first truly favorite bands, but i just cannot, for the life of me, begin to wrap my mind around Boris.

anyone down for helping me get in the groove?

What Boris have you heard already?

the album Pink.

Try checking out Amplifier Worship and Absolutego. They are much different.

hm, i'll give it a shot.

What is it about Pink that you don't like?

ok, this will seem completely strange coming from someone who loves Neurosis and Isis, but the music was too repetitive, too droning. i love building on guitar parts and loads of fuzz, but all i could really discern was a great deal of feedback. the songs seemed to go in circles and not progress at all.

[QUOTE=Jondur;15264139]Well ignoring the fact that you are very wrong because no band has even come close to matching Autopsy (Talent means nothing - riffs are everything)[/quote]

I agree and personally for me an example of a better band than Autopsy is Funebrarum. Similar old school style of death metal, but much heavier and more awesome. Not that Autopsy isn't.

[quote]perhaps you'd better start by naming some of those bands that are better than The Melvins (within the same microgenre).[/QUOTE]

IMO, bands like Ufommamut, Ramesses, and Electric Wizard.

I had not heard about this. I will proceed to look it up and poop myself.

I'm going to go see Weedeater a few days after my birthday.

They are so ****ing good!

Sorry, Luc, but those bands can't be compared with the Melvins since they dont fall under the same "microgenre" as said before.

Of course Funebrarum is going to seem heavier, think of the differences in production from then to now.

O.O what is the microgenre then? It's not Sludge/Doom?

Well for me at least, they are neither. They influenced both genres....but theya re simply some kind of bizarre rock band.

Genres suck anyway. But if you listen to any of those bands (except electric wizard) you mentioned you'll see no bond with the melvins, especially with Ramesses.

I don't know, I'm listening to them right now and I don't see how they can't be connected with the above mentioned artists. Just my opinion though. :\

NP: Melvins - Boris

I see, they are all good though.

I need to listen to my Melvins/Lustmord album.

Nice. Weedeater ****ing rule.

Jesu and Weedeater are playing at a 21+ venure here :upset:

Ah, that sucks.

let me introduce you to the swearfilter...

swearfilter this is idontcare

idontcare, swearfilter

It's the lame language filter.

:lol: it's a swear filter. The word puss[size=2]y[/size] is censored into 'slightly confuzzled sea lion.'

Candlemass were amazing. The set list is a bit hazy due to alcohol consumption, but Solitude, Mirror Mirror and Under the Oak were all excellent. I shook every members hand and got one of Jan's sticks which was quality. :chug:

[QUOTE=idontcare;15276871]Hey, I've been out of the stoner stuff for a while, but the name Weedeater rules! Never heard 'em... anything like Bongzilla? Anyone dig Alabama Thunderslightly confuzzled sea lion?

what's with the sea lion thing? I didn't write that...

oh, wait... I see what's happening...

they go by ATP if you can't figure out who I'm talking aboot...[/QUOTE]

I'm a huge ATP fan.

God damn ****ing bitch **** **** **** **** slightly confuzzled sea lion ***. haha sweet :lol:

-Kage take me with you to Buckethead.
