You are wrong Orestes.

WRONG :mad:

Oh, come on, how can you like "Black Sabbath" more than the songs I mentioned?...:(

Because it has THE RIFF!

<3

Ah the riff :-\

Anyways, I don't think MagicalTroll's song is THAT similar to "Black Sabbath" except for the intro of course. It heavily reminds me of Electric Wizard.

NP Genesis \m/

I've been meaning to check out Electric Wizard.

Are Spirit Caravan worth getting? They have Wino so I assume it is pretty good but I still want an opinion.

Electric Wizard are pretty sweet.

Jondur hates Electric Wizard Jono.

[QUOTE=Jondur;13349041]How the hell can you not of heard Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath?!

Anyway - hear it now. The best riff ever written.[/QUOTE]

So, I pretty much wrote the best riff ever written, but Black Sabbath beat me to it?

Yea'.

If I was 'ripping off' anyone, I'd say it was Electric Wizard.



And my friend said my song sounded like Black Sabbath because of the rain behind the riff or something, so is that why it sounds so similiar to the BS song? Or is it just that the riff just really sounds like them? I don't really get it...


I'll download the song later I guess.

No the riff is not the same. Just the rain effect with the buzz I would say :) Hey guys, does anyone care to upload the song, I don't have the album anymore..

Ok, as long as the riff doesn't sound stolen, then whatever.

I just grabbed a sample from an At TheDrive In song, that's where the rain came from. I haven't heard alot of songs with rain in them, so I thought it'ds be cool to try.

I love Shape of Despair!
I have 'Angel of Distress' (user title :thumb: ) and i love it... beside that i have Illusion play and shape of despair - so their whole discograpyh!?

what are some other great funeral doom bands that are similar to Shape of Despair?

the thing i just love (i live on the 8th floor) is listening to doom (especially Anathema, My Dying Bride, Shape of Despair or some other great bands) and watching out of the window... whole vienna under my feet and you can see the main church of vienna in light... its so beautiful... wait i will make a photo for you (its already dark)

i love it :D

So I might be covering an Earth song for a concert at school...

I say "might" because I don't know if I'm in. I'm in with my band, but this is just going to be me with a clean guitar. I'll be in if there aren't too many bands auditioning. For the last song, I'll get my friend to back me up and we'll play Raiford (the felon wind) by Earth.

i was so much disappointed by Earth live ....

I saw they have a trombone player. Didn't hear any trombone in any of their songs though

I have been listening to alot of Witch lately.

btw. i can't wait for winter (and autumn) ... its always the time when i listen a lot to doom metal bands like Anathema, Katatonia, My Dying Bride, etc.

it just began for me.... i haven't listen as much doom metal in the last few days as in the last half year before... its such a great feeling. on the one hand melancholy, on the other happiness... its strange.

ps.: don't forget about my post on the page before ;)

[QUOTE=repcak;13367692]i was so much disappointed by Earth live ....[/QUOTE]

why?

i never heard a single song by them - on the sunn O))) concert it was the first time i heard them and i expected something different...

for me they were progressive rock, not drone

Their newer stuff isn't very drone-like, except that it's slow. Their earlier albums are reputedly really groundbreaking in terms of it, thuogh.

for the first time of my life i wrote lyrics for a song....

i always wrote time "ideas" for songs/lyrics but never finished one... and now i wrote one in 10minutes :D (not 100% satisfied but its ok)

Let's see it!

ok, but don't be too harsh in critics ... its my first (real) text i wrote for a song, while i was listening to lacrimas profundere... but ok.... maybe you have some better ideas (in the sense of vocabulary) ;)

[QUOTE]sitting on the beach, staring at the sinking sun.
all my fellows gone to the sea of forsaken.
the sand as uncomfortable as myself/my mood. (i'm not sure about this one)
the last actinism reaching me,
leaving a shadow of my shattered soul

chorus:
desire hope
desire fortune/luck (don't know which to take)
desire hate
desire love
desire acceptance
... all at once ... forever

darkness surrounds me in the nescience
ask myself ... will i ever reach the path to fulfillment?
in the black water i will find my answer.
in the deepness of knowledge of death

... i fail
... the world won't come back ... again.[/QUOTE]

Wow, great metaphor there. I like it. Really powerful.

^^ thanks

maybe some suggestions? some better words i could use? i'm not really happy with the chorus and as you can see its similar to Trent Reznors Eraser.

and i'm not sure if i can leave the following words (i took them from a dictionairy :p )
sea of forsaken?
actinism
nescience
in the deepness of knowledge of death (or maybe: in the deepness of the knowledge of death)

are the meanings of the words delivered? how i said, i took the german word i was searching for and searched in a dictionary...

I just listened to Solitude Aeturnus' cover of Heaven and Hell. Their ability to cover one of my all time favourite songs is making me look further into them.

I just listened to Isis' Hand Of Doom cover.

Solitude Aeturnus are extremely good.

That Bongzilla album that Txus uploaded is pretty awesome. Spiritual Beggars are cool too.
