BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Someone went for a wander around the infamous Metal Shop forums didn't they? HAHA!

Oh man, that was an excellent night...... in hindsight! HAHA!

And yeah, there'll be some very limited numbers of shirts there... including 2 which I've managed to get my hands on: an original No Way Out shirt from a run of 25 back in 2001 and a Pure Aussie Power Metal shirt from 2003. :)

Cry of a Restless Soul is my new "song to play when nobody is home"

Lord Abortion 12-04-2005 04:48 PM

Mine is Devoured by Vermin by Cannibal Corpse, but that's besides the point.

Lost Horizon kick arse.

Riva 12-04-2005 04:56 PM

Gosh I love Lost Horizon.

Lord Abortion 12-04-2005 04:59 PM

You took up alot of space just to say that.

Riva 12-04-2005 05:03 PM

You wouldn't believe how often the ladies tell me that also.

Can't say i blame you, Cannibal Corpse isnt the kind of band you want to go around telling people you like

Depends on the reaction you're looking for.

Lord Abortion 12-04-2005 05:06 PM

I don't give a toss about reaction from people, I love CC's music, and wear my hoodie, not for a reaction to the gore on it, but because I really like the band, same as I wear my Maiden shirts and my Mayhem one, and all the others.

I would just get parental complaints about me singing along to it, which I tend not to do anyway when people are in.

Alright, found the thread.

Thats a funny as hell story there Tim.Y You really must write an autobiography at some point, as far as I know, You have led a pretty crazy life, as many of us hope to do so aswell.

I've said it many a time on dungeon forums, but I DESPERATELY wish I could go to Sydney gig.

I could have dressed up. And then endured a glorious battle with the guy who was wearing a pirate hat there. :p

I just found pics of the gig, which can be located [url=http://www.brismetal.com/modules.php?name=coppermine&file=thumbnails&album=58&page=1]here[/url].

JausmetalJ 12-07-2005 04:17 PM

Yer, those were posted on another forum, I believe the first set of pics are of a band with one of the members posting on the forum.

Lord Abortion 12-09-2005 05:18 AM

LT, or anyone who knows, any guitar tabs for Dungeon available?
The guitarist in me band wants to know...
therefore if noone has heard any good Dungeon covers, you may well do soon :p

dUSK 12-09-2005 05:21 AM

I've never been able to find any tabs. I've requested them at a few places unsuccessfully as well. :(

If you find any, let me (us) know.

JausmetalJ 12-09-2005 05:40 AM

WHAT!

Great album.

I got it :cool:

dUSK 12-09-2005 05:46 AM

I've heard good things. I'll get it as soon as I have some cash to throw around, which could be at least 3 months from now. :(

Lord Abortion 12-09-2005 06:06 AM

Yeah. Buying it Exclusively for Terranno del mar would be worth it.

shadow_stalker 12-09-2005 08:16 AM

Get the extended edition with the dvd its great, to the living end' and 'Surface Tension' are my favourite songs

dUSK 12-09-2005 09:24 AM

^ I've been after that since LT mentioned it in here.

/becomes angry at Dungeon for not having it at their gig :mad:

Lord Tim 12-09-2005 08:26 PM

We actually don't own it - that's the LMP release and it's not even supposed to be in this country because of the way the territories are organised, but due to the parallel importing laws, they still end up in shops here. (which is good for you guys, of course).

BTW, that tab is wrong - both guitars are playing octaves in a minor 3rd harmony. EG:


[FONT="Courier New"]
|-------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------|
|-7776xx7776xx7~6x-1010109xx1010109xx10~9~5-|
|-------------------------------------------|
|-5554xx5554xx5~4x-8 8 8 7xx8 8 8 7xx8 ~7~3-|
|-------------------------------------------|
[/FONT]

x=string mute (ie: lift your fingers off of the strings to deaden them and pick them to get a muted sound, rather than a palm mute)

~= slur (so 7~6 means play from 7th and slide down to 6th still sounding the note)

The 2nd guitar plays a diatonic minor 3rd harmony, ie: 3 scale degrees up.

And tuning is E flat (every string tuned a semitone lower)

Deth 12-09-2005 08:33 PM

I'm listening to some Dungeon samples now. Why didn't anybody tell me that they're amazing?!

Lord Tim, I'm going to buy an album or two soon.

JausmetalJ 12-09-2005 08:48 PM

Hey Creeping Deth, Dungeon are AMAZING.

LORD is/will be amazing aswell.

Deth 12-09-2005 08:54 PM

Which album should I get first?

dUSK 12-09-2005 09:35 PM

[QUoTE=Lord Tim]We actually don't own it - that's the LMP release and it's not even supposed to be in this country because of the way the territories are organised, but due to the parallel importing laws, they still end up in shops here. (which is good for you guys, of course).[/QUOTE]

Now if only I could find it...

[QUOTE=Creeping Deth]Which album should I get first?[/QUOTE]

I don't think it really matters. I have [i]A Rise To Power[/i] and the [i]Resurrection[/i] re-release. They are both awesome, and I couldn't pick a favourite. [i]One Step Beyond[/i] has a good reputation as well, as can be seen a few posts above.

NP: Where Madness Hides

Lord Tim 12-09-2005 10:55 PM

I'd suggest One Step Beyond first myself, but everyone has their favourites. :)

shadow_stalker 12-10-2005 06:16 AM

[QUOTE=Creeping_Deth]Which album should I get first?[/QUOTE]
I say get [I]resurrection[/I] its brilliant, paradise/legend of huma and resurrection > all


anyone noticed that 'i am death' main riff sounds kind of like master of puppets? (no offence meant by that comment to tim and the other dungeon guys)

Lord Abortion 12-10-2005 11:57 AM

Now if we could only get tabs for Stormchaser...

I would personally reccommend getting [I]A rise to Power[/I] it's my favourite

/notices the thread has been Dungeon-filled for the past 10 pages :p

Shattered_Future 12-10-2005 12:08 PM

Suckups. :p

I really like A Rise To Power...quite a good album. One problem though: what's with that one track (7 or 8, I believe), with the clip of the lady giving birth to the baby that kills everybody in the room? :amaze:

King_Of_Terrors 12-10-2005 12:20 PM

Dungeon are weird. I don't see what is so great about them, I only have the Rise To Power album though.

Steerpike 12-10-2005 01:23 PM

[QUOTE=King_Of_Terrors]Dungeon are weird. I don't see what is so great about them,[/QUOTE]

Speaking of signs of death. :p

Anyway, after going through my albums and mp3s, trying to organize the next bands for my series, I've come to realize it's going to be a very power metal holiday. The next three bands are:

Primal Fear
Epica
Black Majesty

Shattered_Future 12-10-2005 02:27 PM

Haven't heard of the top and bottom one, but Epica is quite good. A bit generic, but Simone has a decent voice...

Steerpike 12-10-2005 02:30 PM

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]Haven't heard of the top and bottom one, but Epica is quite good. A bit generic, but Simone has a decent voice...[/QUOTE]

If you read my spotlight on Gamma Ray you should recognize Primal Fear.

Black Majesty are a (sadly) obscure Aussie band from Melbourne.
