Maybe because the site is being really slow and retarded.

It's hard modding punks like you when it takes 20 minutes to close a thread. :(

I've been trying to get on here all night! :(

It's actually running faster now than it has in probably 24 hours...

Hehe, well it's not like I have any threads worthy of closing O:-)

brandon and matt, we beat bowmanville today 76 - 34 :p

Hey, good evening guys.

That's sweet Fish (forgets your ream name:upset:). Finally the site is going a good speed.

Yeah, the site isn't toally lagging out, hurrah, since my roomie is being a jackass again and sleeping when I want to play guitar.

Whoa, hey guys.

I'm starting to get sick. :-/

And it's snowing like crazy right now.

i should note that its just some basic electronica stuff

I was sick late last week to early this week. I'm finally better. Also, still no snow here in Bowmanville. I was expecting to have lots by now.

Hey Vince I listened to some Opeth and Blind Guardian and Dark Tranquility today and man that stuff is so cool. I think I might go metal when I get sick of jazz!

No snow in Seattle either :(

And also kudos to me for finishing my homework before 6 o clock! Now I can have a guilt-free evening, huzzah!

I did all my homework before 6:p. I thought it was going to take like 3 hours, turns out it wasn't as big as I thought and it barely took me an hour.

Well usually I don't even get home before 8, so this was a big accomplishment for me.

Haha, well I'm a good little boy and usually do my homework when I get home from school, or Brandon's house.:p

I approve of all of those choices. Good work my friend. If you dig Acoustic music, Opeth's Damnation is a must listen for you. It's almost totally acoustic and really different but fantastic still. For Blind Guardian listen to some Rhapsody, Stratovarius, and (if you can stomach the cheesiness) Dragonforce. Dark Tranquility is good too though I'm not as familiar with them as the others, but Arsis would be another band you might branch into from there easily and if you can deal with less melody I'll recommend Nile as well. I love Metal, but I can't listen to much Jazz. There are a few bands who fuse Jazz and Metal really well too if you're interested.

Finished homework? It isn't finals yet?

Heh yeah. I was bored today so I made a thread TE asking people to find stuff I wouldn't like. They all failed!

I have a final Saturday in Italian and my History of Jazz one is Monday. I should probably start studying for them soon.

So, I go away for a day and we have one page of additional posts. Either everyone has died, or MX has gone mental.


As a bonus fun point, I think I am in the middle of something of a pit of alcoholism this week. Check out what I've done, and will be doing, this week:


Monday: Cheap beer night at the pub, so I finish work at 9pm-ish, and drink heavily until close. After this, continue drinking by virtue of leaving money behind the bar, including at least 2 double whiskies.

Tuesday: Go to work hungover, and finish at about 9.30pm. Immediately buy lager and commence drinking. This continues until arrival at Ziggy's in town about 11.30, at which point turbo shandy (lager, K2 Ice, and vodka) drinking begins.

Wednesday: Go to work hungover. Finish at 6pm, and immediately require a lager to combat hangover. Drink for a while in pub, and then go to friend's house to watch football and assist with drinking of crate of Grolsch. Afterwards, head to other pub, and end night sat at end of bar drinking Stella and staring lecherously at barmaid. Then go home and finish half bottle of red wine.

Thursday: Go to work grotesquely hungover. Finish at 6pm, and immediately order 4 pint pitcher of beer. Drink in one hour. Order another. Drink. Stagger home. Drink random bottles of Grolsch found in fridge.


To make stuff worse, it's not over. Tomorrow is a full day (well, from 2pm) in Leeds, drinking. And Saturday is work until 5pm (no doubt feeling crappy), and then a friend's birthday night out. And guess what that will mean.


Just reading all that should be harrowing enough. I worry about myself.

Wormed. And if you like it for any reason than the hilarity of it you should be shot for being too open-minded :p

Nahhh, studying is overrated (see: my pit thread).

Andy: I would but I'm in the computer lab cuz my comp broke :-\

James I feel a little hungover just reading that.

Vince: Wormed? Can you YSI it?

I'm back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh! I only have [I]Damnation[/I] and I thought that's how Opeth always sounded.

Andy your song is really cool, especially at 2:00 or so when it goes all crazy.

[QUOTE=HomeCatMickey8]I'm back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/QUOTE]

I was thinking earlier today that you haven't posted in a while. Where'd ya go?

[QUOTE=PDWAB]James I feel a little hungover just reading that.

Nah, as I said my comp's broke, so my only source of music is my iPod :-\

If you can do myspace music though...

AOL died like the bitch that it is. But now we have DSL, and life is great.

And I have MX back:thumb:

[QUOTE=Fire Whispers]Oh! I only have [I]Damnation[/I] and I thought that's how Opeth always sounded.[/QUOTE]
Hahahaha

No.

Opeth is more Progressive Black/Death Metal sounding on every other album. The same level of musicianship but with lots of distortion and a lot faster. And with lots of growling.

Nice, very nice.

Andy's song is cool. Not really my kinda thing, but I can still appreciate it. I reckon my band's bassist would like it a lot. He's a DJ and plays that kinda music.

Good to hear. You haven't missed much. Chad went wild and throw all teh threads into random places. So, the mods were having a hell of a time. All today MX has been pretty slow and not much activity.

Sweet!

Any particular album I should get?

[QUOTE=Fire Whispers]Sweet!

Hmm, I've not heard them all, but Deliverance is considered their heaviest (not necessarily best though). Still Life and Blackwater Park are both good starting points I'd think.

Anyone like Sigur Ros?

Sounds good. When I downloaded Damnation I was expecting the more Death Metal/Progressive kind of sound. I was surprised when I heard it but I still think it's pretty good.

Of course. Great band, one of my favorite bands to relax to.

Yeah, it's a really great album imo. I think the fact they could do something like that and be a Metal band made me respect them a lot more.

Damnation = my favourite Opeth album


Although, to be fair, I know little else of their stuff. To be honest, I've heard few more depressing songs than some of the ones on Damnation. It's incredible.
