/me goes to bed in miserable mood


To top stuff off, my house is FOOKING FREEZING. Everytime we turn the electric heaters on, the circuits screw up, and we have no central heating. And our landlord doesn't give a crap. Hence, we freeze.

Then put a coat on, silly.

It would suck if it was too hot. Then there'd be NOTHING you could do.

[quote=Show Review]Amon Amarth:
These guys pretty much define what a metal show should be in my mind. Screaming/growling vocalist, screeching harmonized guitars and a pulsing rhythm section, all moving at the speed of light. Mind you, I'd never heard their music before tonight, but it was pretty good. They had a good show too, their on-stage chemistry reminded me of Iron Maiden. Only a 30 minute set, but they were really into it and put in a lot though the crowd was a bit lackluster for the most part (I blame this on the insane amount of 12 year old metal posers at the show for Trivium). The music seemed a bit boring, but most Death Metal is to me so eh. Enjoyable nonetheless. Plus the lead singer was a Viking. No joke.

Trivium:
So I knew these guys have been all over MTV and are really popular, and so are outcast from the "troo" Metal community, but I saw a music video of theirs over break and it wasn't that bad, I sort of liked it, so I was hoping this wasn't going to be as bad as I feared. On the plus side, it wasn't terrible. On the minus side...the drummer had the biggest set of any of the bands tonight, and was not very creative with it (I mean this was an orgasmic kit, but subpar drumming), the little kids in the pit trying to act cool and just ending up hitting me in the kidney due to height differences, and the singer telling the people to mosh. People say this band isn't Metalcore, but I can point out the similarites to Hardcore right here and now: only Hardcore bands are stupid and boring enough the singer has to ask the crowd to mosh. Repeatedly. The highlight of their show was when the frontman was harrassing some decked out metalhead on the bars and he asked the metalhead what made him more Metal than everyone else there including the band, and though the answer wasn't audible where I was, it was clearly something about "girl pants" because the response was "Stop looking at my crotch man, what are you emo? Lots of Metal bands wore tight pants: Metallica, Megadeth, Iron Maiden. Do you hate them too? No, the correct answer was Manowar, sorry, you lose." Best owning I've heard in a long time. And he mentioned Manowar, props to him for that. After that I think the more "troo" metlheads got into the show.

Children of Bodom:
Very good show. Like the previous bands they had a recorded instrumental intro, but their transition into their actual songs was the smoothest of the three. They played a great set list with very little from their new album which was great since I've yet to hear the new album. The performance was also punctuated by a drum solo, guitar/keyboard duel, a keyboard solo, and another guitar solo (and I mean solo as in the only instrument). On top of that there were several jam session type moments. The band has really great chemistry. The drum solo was good, though not mind-boggling, but the keyboard/guitar solo was phenomenal. The keyboardist is very, very good, and Alexi is a great guitarist especially for also being the vocalist. The solos also showcased a lot of Classical influence which was really cool because it's hard to catch that in the Metal context of the songs. The band was always moving and almost always right at the crowd's edge too. Very quality performance. The pit (which I swore to avoid but failed to anyways) was totally insane and immense, at least 20 feet deep. After their encore the lights came up and such and the Beastie Boys' "Fight for your Right" started playing, and the band was singing along to it with the crowd post-performance, it was neat just because it was so spontaneous.

School's out for... about a day.

Tomorrow is gonna suck, cos we're in all day. Me and my friend are gonna see if we can go early by doing work in our free period for last lesson. Right now I'm listening to Placebo - Soulmates Never Die, and it's awesome. They are amazing live.

[QUOTE=HomeCatMickey8]Agreed... 'bout four square.

We played "Hardcore Four Square" in PE last year when the teacher was lazy and told us to do whatever we wanted. We had to get "umperees" and everything, that's how hardcore we were. I must say I got lucky with timing and won 2 out of the 3 days we played. I think that was the best 3 days of PE I've ever had.[/QUOTE]
I play hardcore four square with my friends. Where as you mess up and you're in a 10 minute line. You gotta be freaking sweet and pull it around behind your back and hit the person's feet.

Ugh I hate when people do that. It's so annoying because you can't really argue with them because they usually just cut off the phone. Then you have that horrible feeling until you have the chance to talk to them again. Bah old memories.

Kif 11-29-2005 07:37 AM

Is it bad that yesterday I clicked a link which could take my cookies, so I typed some random jibberish quickly, copied and pasted it into my new password and now I can't remember what it is?

Agent_Orange 11-29-2005 08:26 AM

Yes, that would be quite irritating. Wouldn't you think?

Do you have a new pod up? I havn't had the time to go check.

Kif 11-29-2005 01:24 PM

Trivium do suck. They have a crap vocalist (Wow, a young metal band with a screamer... so original?), and their riffs and completely boring. Besides which, the drums are usually just a mixture of double bass and snare/crash beats.

I want South Park DVDs. I'd like to see Cannibal! The Musical as well actually, I heard it's good.

I just got through the second disc of season 2 of 24, and I'm coming around to this storyline a lot more now. Quite interesting, might watch some later.

Now I have to storyboard a trailer :D

Untitled 11-29-2005 01:30 PM

Ahh yes, i wouldnt mind see that, i wanna see all there stuff. Im mad in love with them atm. I might download some southpark, i duno.

Mayhem has possibly the most interesting story in metal.
