Okay. Well, I just described what the speakers in the computer at my work do. It can make it exceedingly difficult to hear what's going on in some music.

[QUOTE=Spaceman Spiff;17966511]Damn, that sucks.

There hasn't been a sign of snow here since it all melted... a month and a half ago?[/QUOTE]

I know, Montreal was great. Had nice summer weather.

50cm in one storm?!?

**** yeah, I got approved for a new place to live today.

So my band (http://www.myspace.com/riverstonehaze) is supporting these guys in about 2 weeks. I'm wondering how awesome this will be.

Thats suprising considering their music is boring and sh[size=2]i[/size]tty and they sound like 3days grace wannabies and there really is no lower form of musician.
I bet they get a lot of [size=2]p[/size]ussy though

I just heard some new Deftones stuff. It's actually... good? Yes. I was shocked.

They sound slightly better than 3 Days Grace... but that's saying very little.

I can't actually listen to this stuff.

This song rules.

Good old DK.

Diamond Eyes is a pretty awesome song, I'm looking forward to that CD. Have you heard the new Mudvayne? Great stuff.

I've been let down by Mudvayne consistently since Ld.50. Only heard snippets of the new Deftones stuff, but the 8 string guitar is definitely making a difference. I've always foud Deftones hit and miss, but definitely looking forward to getting hold of the album.

Gonna go and vote soon.

As you probably know Chi Cheng had that car accident on the way from his brothers funeral and almost died. They were apparently writing a new CD at the time. They decided to get rid of all of the new material they had and start fresh with another bassist while Chi was still in his coma, and I think I remember reading that they said the new material really depicted how the felt at the time and was some of their most creative stuff. Needless to say I expect the CD to be phenomenal, despite Chinos aging voice.

Thats a lot of speculation though

This is definitely their best CD in a LONG time.

...really?

This sounds like it could be any metal band, not Mudvayne. Ld.50 still blows me away with how much depth and subtlety it has, as well as that mind blowing bass tone. Ryan's the only part of them that's stayed consistently good and on top of his game, but listening to this track, I'm rethinking that now.

I definitely hear a lot of improvement from the drummer and guitarist. Ryan has taken a step back in terms of creativity (individually anyway), as has their music. They aren't the same old math metal band, but the new sound they created over the past few CDs has really improved and this is definitely the peak of that style. By best CD in a long time, I really just mean since LD.50. I think it is easily a better overall CD then The End of all things to Come. I thought that CD only had like 4 or 5 great songs. I never really gave their other CDs much of a chance until now. They definitely sound a lot more like any old metal band now as they have too many catchy choruses and vocals, but overall you will not be dissapointed with this album.

I definitely didn't post the best song on the album, hehe. This is probably my favourite right now

Don't worry, Ryan still stands out a lot on a few tracks.

The main reason I posted the first song is because of the bada[size=2]s[/size]s breakdown and brilliant progression afterwards. Not to mention that drum beat that kicks in after the song. awesome.

It was the weird bits of Ld.50 that were actually memorable for me far more than these 'catchy' choruses. Listened to a few more tracks, and it's okay. I'd listen to it as a new band in it's own right, but as Mudvayne, it's just not right :(

Sikth carried on where Mudvayne left off I think.

Well, yeah.

It's Alberta.

Took my Math Structures final today. I found it fairly br00tahl. I only need to get a 53% on it to pass the class, so the pressure wasn't on too much. I was really hoping to swing a B for the semester, though. **sigh**

Time to get an early start on quarks and other quantum physics pre-cursor material.

We're basically hoping to use the event as an opportunity to poach fans from them. They coming from down south doing a tour and they have a decent following.

My birthday is also a few days before the gig so after we play I'm just going to get ruined.

My tax return FINALLY came in the ****ing mail. Huzzah.

Direct Deposit ftw. Had mine back in the last week of Feb.

Then I spent it all on my tuition. Ghey.

So.....wanna buy a 2001 MM Stingray w/ stealth hardware, hipshot ultralite tuners, and OHSC for $700 shipped?

that's a real good price. 4 or 5 strings?

4-string.

Send it to me. I'm good for the money. Honest.

[quote=funkyhoney;17970117]Send it to me. I'm good for the money. Honest.[/quote]

It's in the mail now.

Can your bank pay directly to my credit card to save me the trouble of making the payment?

I sent you a mail with my credit card info as well. If not, I've included the bank account information for you.

By the way, we record mostly with these:
