Im gonna keep my memories from seeeing them five times between 92 and 96. Pretty much when they were good live.

Jesus christ! Why was it ding...because it was actually awesome? Great songs, great production, some melody and hooks whilst still being brutal as fuck. Ahh yeah, that is all stuff you dont like isn't it?

So is your hygiene.

Yes! This is in no way a dig but it is a must own if you like metal. Get It Sorted!!

That's awesome you have realised all this

Now considering that I got into Burn My eyes as soon as it came out in 94....therefore most people usually prefer the album they get into a band with yeah? It actually is better. I'm serious. Just listen to it. Dont do anything but listen to it when you first put it on yeah?

o_O ?(

That line up is fucking crap!

Nope...usually a blessing that even better things are coming

You're all missing the point to be honest. Basically, the awards has mainly relied on the same crowd year after year and that has dwindled. Brian and Craig need to start paying more attention to whats more current, seeing what music is about nowadays and going to shows. Seeing what the 14+ crowd are going to. i don't care what anyone says, the line up was weak. Maybe not musically but as far as pulling power goes...for sure. If Fudge would like input into the awards then i'd oblige and probably triple the attendance of last night. Of course I'd want a cut of the door

Metal as we know it has been blown wide open. The Blackening by Machine Head - The best Metal album in at least ten years. Recieved my copy from Amazon yesterday. Four spins in. I could fill the bandwidth of this site talking about this record. GO BUY IT!!!

Yeah sweet!! Didn't know you had a weapon tee. Which one of our 5 designs did you plump for in the end? Obviously keeping tabs on what we are doing are we? That's nice to know

Fuck...that's ALMOST reason to go

Get Testament off of Bloodstock and slam em on here and that would rule. Cry For Silence, Sylosis, Poison the Well, Twelve Tribes, Every Time I Die........endless! Machine Head will own it. 2007 will belong to them. Just you wait.

Yeah, because Unearth, Megadeth, Slayer, Machine Head, Lamb Of God, Killswitch Engage aren't metal huh?

To be fair man...any song that you think is awful I would probably love and lets remember that you probably first heard scum by Napalm Death about a year or two ago and I saw them play it live in 89 with dorrian on vocals and bill steer on guitar so just run along now ok

Fair play. I do see your view although I dont agree if that makes sense. Even the lesser talked about tracks for me are amazing. Kill Your Scene, The Kids, Sattelite, Dig, the title track is AMAZING as well. Only song that's not that good is contender but it is still pretty cool. It's a tough call to be honest. I mean from Twisted onwards the quality of music is just silly good. I mean...sonic defiance....christ!?!?!? I'll always stand by STWB as a class record too...two thirds of it are just awesome. Exile's production does kind of annoy me actually.

Why, thank you!

Ive heard two new tracks from the Blackening AND read the MH interview in Metal Hammer and I'm so fucking ready for this album. It will blow metal right open. This will be the album that truly puts Metal back in the face of the world.

Now, I'm not a big Trivium fan at all, in fact, I dont don't own anything by them as they just don't really do it for me BUT what makes them "faux"* metalheads? Is it the fact that they wear their love for metal on their sleeve? Is it the fact that they clearly have love for bands that they have perhaps eclipsed in sucess but still show a deep respect for because of the influence i.e. (Testament, Annihilator.) Is it the fact they publicly went out on Ozzfest and supported maiden when they were treated like crap by Sharon Osbourne et al by wearing maiden shirts and playing the Trooper? Is it the fact that they want to be the biggest Metal band in the world? (Most metal bands want that as well.) I cant see any reason why they are faux Metalheads. Just because they are popular with really young kids. So what, it was only ten years ago that kids of the same age were wearing Sepultura and Machine Head tee shirts in abundance. Did that make those bands faux metal? Did it fuck! Be careful that you dont become that bitter old man Scott, that looks down on the next generation of everything. What keeps someone relevant and young is how open their mind is. *Its Faux not Faux Pas. Faux pas is a mistake, a no no etc.

An American Paradox was the best, for me anyway. Exile is awesome though.

My mistake...I thought he had two before he bought the blue one...

Minging headstock though!

Hmm...you say that..
