yea, i agree man. Not really my bag


i figured ill learn some of the ones i like, and see how they are. If we dont click, fu*k it ya know.


Id be lead, so thats a lil better i guess. If i had to chug chords to some of that sh!t, id lose it haha

hah well good luck with sitting up with those songs on repeat, i know how discouraging it can be, ive had to do it with the beatles, queen, blur, U2, franz ferdinand, and i didnt really like any of them but they kinda grow on you once you've learnt them and then it kinda becomes fun playing them.

There aren't many perks of playing lead in those songs cause most of them don't even have a lead.

haha thats kinda what i was thinking hehe


but maybe i could write my own

You should form your own band. Find people around who have similar interests, or do what I did and try and convert people.

We Die Young by Alice in Chains is a really fun song to play and hear. That is a good one, although the solo is a bit tricky. I never attempted the solo but watching Jerry Cantrel do it freaked me out a bit, I don't know why... yeah, I can't learn all of those in a short period of time so good luck.

yea, thats almost nay impossible.

Hahaha, I feel the same way. There is only one drummer I know, and he plays punk. One other guitarist who actually plays, but is no where close to a decent performance level. Another person is just a kid looking to sing. But everyone has different musical interests. Gangster-type cities are impossible to find decent musicians...

actually, id be cooler with some black person rapping, while i play some funky beats

I would rather get shot than play with some F**Kin' idiot rapping in the mic. I can't stand hearing that stuff, ESPECIALLY hybrid stuff like Linkin Park or Limp Bizkit... Oh damn I better not end up with people like that. To everyone here, the heaviest or scarriest bands in the world are Slipknot, KoRn, (and for the kids who think they are "underground" Cradle of Filth).

Pfffft, CoF > nu metal

Haha, that sucks. My town is void of musicians as well. I know a couple emo bassist, one metal guitarist who has pretty much given that up to play piano instead, and that's about it.

Yeah numetal is sorta dead tho, the big new thing now is metalcore. All the kids around here love Atreyu and As I Lay Dying. It pisses me off when they see me with a Bodom shirt and are like oh sweet band dude and I'm like oh waht are you into? Then they name 5 crappy new american bands and im just like wtf dude you don't deserve to listen to Bodom, and it is an insult even mentioning Bodom with those other bands in the same sentence.

I have this frickin awsome drummer who lays down really cool beats. Then I pull out the Wah and get funky and this Black guy from down the street comes and raps over it all.

It's tons of fun.

Please kill me....

html class is so painful .


i could die now and die in utter suffering... but a happy man... I saw bodom live.....

Haha, yeah I know how that feels big time. Damn mall kids. Metalcore isn't too big, it's all hardcore. There is a difference between them, and when I thought the kids at the mall couldn't get worse, they got worse. The emo kids are either too cared to talk to me, or the try to whore all of the social world that surrounds them. All the kids that claim what I listen to is "cool" has never heard 90% of the bands I listen to, and/or only listen to bands they hear on the radio, or from the "popular kids" they like.

Kids here just run around and praise anything they see marketing to the masses at hot topic...

"They sell it, it must be good/talented".

No one listens to metal.

There's so much drama about bands near me right now, it's unbelieveable. Lineup changes and drummer wars, it's really frustrating and extremely depressing. I used to have a great band but it turned out that my drummer was a complete dick (although he was an awesome drummer), and our bassist/singer had a control-freak personality. In fact today there was a really big incident involving our old guitarist and a singer I know.

At least you have bands around you. :(

At this point I'd [I]definitely[/I] rather have no bands around me. Without expanding, there have been some really nasty, hurtful things that have happened to me lately regarding bands.

That can be bad, but as musician, it could be worth it. If you live in an area with plenty of bands and musical opportunities around you, that is definitely going to push you forward and make you a better musician. If you're like me and there's very little available, you end up sitting around doing nothing and wondering why everyone else is better then you. I've never been in a band and at the rate things are going, I most likely never will be before I leave for college next year. I think at this point I'd much rather have a place filled with music, even if it is too full, then a place with nothing.

We used to have a cool melodic death band around here called Necrosis. Then the members started goin out with these poser chicks and for the past year they have transitioned into metalcore/hardcore. It is kind of a dissapointment. Ultima will forever be true metal, no doubt about that, and soon were gonna dominate the local scene.

There are a lot of Bands in S.A (1.2 million people) but very few in my social life.
I would much rather have lots of bad bands then none at al.

My band is living for the summer right now. when it comes we are gonna be ready to rock!

It wasn't about me being kicked out of anything. Basically I'm just bitter about less-talented musicians getting lucky with an online gigging organization.

I would form a band. If I met people that were good [B]AND[/B] knew what real metal is.


I'd never stoop to the level of "core".

My old band was decent, but split up because we couldn't agree on what to play.

Now it's just me and a bassist, who both have the same musical tastes. That works out rather well.

Our old drummer does too, but he's just beginning to play...I don't know if he's gotten better or not.

If only Leah were here to enjoy...

Check out Ultima's first "recording" (hehehe). It's probably our most speed metal song, the rest are significantly more power, but oh well it's our most accessible you could say.

where is she?

also me and my friend are going to be starting a band once we get it together we are going to play covers untill we get good at playing together then we hopefully gonna start wrinig our own stuf olnly problem is that my friends a total wanker when it comes to playing if where playing hendrix he would still use his wylde overdrive use too many pinch harmonics and over use the wah....thats the only thing im worried about.

Nice song.

My old band sucked so I quit. The band I'm in now sucks too. We don't really practice much or anything. We hang out a lot though.. just never actually jam.
