Is it that bad near the coastal areas?

I can imagine it does get pretty brutal though.

this is scandinavia in the winter; [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a8/Scandinavian_Peninsula_in_Winter_%28February_19%2C_2003%29.jpg[/IMG]

the white stuff is snow =/

and yeah, we get these wet, cold coastal winds in gothenburg (which si on the west coast) so it can get pretty brutal. i mean, it's not alaska, but being a mailman here in the winter is not a fun hobby

looks like a mutilated penis.

would you believe that it is actually gods mutilated pen!s?

Yes I would actually.

Oh man that is pretty brutal. I was in Hamburg over the winter and there wasn't any snow. That's why I asked. You guys are farther north which explains it.

no, wait

[I]Odin's [/I]mutilated pen!s

Aha! Praise be to Odin

yeah, i'm in the southern part (or half, at least) and we're better off than the people who live up north. but tbh, it's their fault for being stupid enough to keep living in such an unhospitable climate. i mean, down in southern sweden we get up to 30+ degrees (85+ farenheit) in the summers while they get like 15 (60)

Yeah, we get pretty extreme weather. It was 35 the other day. In the winter it sometimes gets down to -30 ish.

35 F or C?

Celsius

Yeah, those are extremes. There are only a few days each year when it's like that.

I used to live in Norway, and it got cold as as a mother****er. My school also made us go outside for an hour every day, no matter the weather. Everyone would just be huddled together during the winter.

Where do you live now?

A place where bad music comes from.

Uh Maryland is awesome music central.

that title would go to Sweden

Is Sweden the home of Wino? I didn't think so.

yeah, norway is pretty much like gothenburg, coastal and such, most of norway is even colder than what i have here though, because its farther to the north

Haha I saw an interview with Gahl (spelling?) at his home in Norway. They were like hiking up this huge mountain and it was snowing. bm ftw.

[QUOTE=wiki]Maryland has had a thriving doom metal scene since the early 90s, and is now considered to have its own "Maryland doom" sound.[22] This scene was started in the late 70s with The Obsessed, a band led by Scott "Wino" Weinrich. During this time, Northern Virginia's Pentagram also had a heavy influence on the Maryland scene. After disbanding The Obsessed in the mid 80s and moving to California to sing with doom legends Saint Vitus, Wino reformed The Obsessed and signed to the German based Hellhound Records. With The Obsessed on board, Hellhound began to sign other Maryland bands, such as Wretched, Iron Man, Unorthodox, Internal Void, and Revelation (who already had an album on Rise Above Records). After Hellhound's demise in the late 90s, many Maryland doom bands were picked up by various other labels, including Southern Lord Records. After The Obsessed second break up, Wino formed Spirit Caravan and The Hidden Hand. Both have been very successful in the doom genre. Other current Maryland doom bands include Earthride, Nitroseed, and Black Manta.[/QUOTE] beat

Doom metal is gay.
