  1. Juvenile I know... but your bands one is Poo Uk, Made me smirk Mine is paradoxicalfly but it's not very interesting. Just me ranting usually.
  2. BLABBERMOUTH.NET - M.A.N Claims To Be First Metal Band Ever To Incorporate 'Full Scale Quarter Tone System' That's closest I have heard in a long time... but Eastern music has been using microtones/quartertones (or whatever they are called ) for ages has it not? As for music that's 'original' or at least trying something different the problem is it's just too strange for most people! Sure I have posted this link before but something like Lye By Mistake Lye by Mistake(NEW SONGS POSTED!!!) on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads is one of the most creative things I have heard in a while. Well Exivious are kinda doing something similar but it's not as mad as them. To quote Stephen Wilson (of Porcupine Tree fame) Obviously I don't know much about other genres of music... but i can say in metal there are loads of bands making crazy music that is just not that popular cos it's too weird. Check out PsyOpus or Behold... The Arctopus for example. YouTube - Psyopus-Medusa YouTube - Behold... The Arctopus - Canada
  3. I lived in Edinburgh for over 18 years. The street party is crap in my experience so clubs are definitely the way forward, or just getting pissed at a mates house. That's always good

    Weekend

    Don't waste yer time. It was pish when I went (that was the first day it was open though..). Or at least if you do go get stamped in Korova first
  6. any one like em and can recommend songs to youtube? Won tickets to see them on Thursday @ Warehouse and mate wants to go so I think I will head along. Wires is the only song by them I have heard though
  7. Ah I can see that. The guitars weren't hugely loud even at the front so can see them being totally drowned out toward the back. The sticky carpet was much better than the new flooring Yeah the songs between sets were weird, ranged from James Brown and the Jackson 5 to Van Halen and Iron Maiden. Wtf o_O Didn't go into Bassment beforehand but during the FFAF dj set they were nowhere to be seen and was just dancey type music from what I can remember... The crowd were OK at the front too. Interacting, singing along etc. Glad they weren't too rowdy. I'm a bit fed up of struggling to keep my feet the entire night at gigs It's fun at times but not every time. Wish everyone had enjoyed the good sound etc though!
  8. Darren's clothes could have been less like lycra too That was the tightest metallica t shirt I have ever seen o_O
  9. Really? Admittedly I was right at the front but the sound was brilliant. Could hear all the instruments perfectly which makes a change at gigs. Normally they're bass drum/high hat heavy but the balance last night was great. Only song missing from the set I would liked to have heard was 10:45 Amsterdam Conversations and was a bit surprised they played all 4 of the new songs. As they said the fans chose the setlist so blame them I really didn't like Spycatcher but The Xcerts put on a pretty decent show and whilst not my cup of tea I quite enjoyed them

    Pet Hates!

    Ha ha yeah. The free one is normally broken or takes your card and doesn't give you any money in my experience though. Also the free one usually has a hobo beside it..... Naturally I'd just use the one outside RGUnion
  11. Any idea of rough stage times? My mate is working til about 9:15 I think so I probably won't be there til 9:30ish Guessing FFAF will be on about 9:45/10?

    Hmm I imagine they would have a 5 minimum spend limit. Will be a bloody good night anyway Actually.... here's my last fm library If you said The Cheeky Girls or some Hard House Anthems 7 or some other dance compilation I would fall foul of your point Their is an entire subgenre of metal called 'djent' which basically sounds like Meshuggah. For your aural displeasure here's a

    Pet Hates!

    I don't care how much I dislike a job. Put on a brave face and get on with it. Money's money. Can't say more than that! My pet hate is NHS grampian overspending! I was an auxiliary nurse but they overspent last year so cutting down on bank staff thus why I have no job cos it's impossible to get shifts, hence searching for a new one. Although looks like wait is over. Oh and 3 hour group job interviews suck when you're not told how long they will last
  14. Y'all should know as someone who has lectures in there several times a week the Suttie Centre lecture theatre is a garish colour of green and it's also quite chilly. Esepcially if you sit at the back corners where the air conditioning is. I don't mind but some do so wrap up! If it wasn't on bonfire night may have gone to check it out. It's only 5 mins from my house

    The problem is with the floats. We have to stick to company policy which says 50 at the start of your shift, and any spare money must be kept in the safe. I actually enjoyed going to the safe, got to sit down for 20 seconds! The problem was when I got back and people were moaning they had no time and why didn't I have more money in my till. It's not my fault and I really don't like people whingeing at me for doing what my manager told me to do. But such is the service industry I suppose! Customers always right etc

    Pet Hates!

    Anyone who has worked in retail knows it is usually a 50 or 100 float. In the places I have worked it's always been one or the other... We don't demand exact change. You can give me 3, 5 etc for a 2.09 coffee and I'll happily stick the change in my pocket I can't complain anymore though. I left the place in June

    Pet Hates!

    Yeah I was like that... here's my gripe though. I worked for a year in the cafe at the railway station. So many more of you may know me than you think Now I was the most experienced member of staff and frequently had to open at 7am on my own. We only have a 50 float in the till and the first customer usually pays for a coffee with a 20 note. So I used up all my pound coins within 2 people... so I have to run to the office to the safe and get change cos I am the only member of staff actually in the building and when I come back there is a massive queue and people are looking at me like why the fuck did you take so long... ARRGGGGG!!! So yeah people who pay with 20 notes as soon as a shop has opened are cunts. If it's quiet and I have time to get change or if it's a bit later and I have some notes in my till, that's equally fine... but when you can see I am the only one there at 7am fuck right off.
  18. Suffocation and Dream Evil confirmed amongst others today. Tickets 90 til 15th December. I will probably get one soon
  19. I will freely admit I am one... but I do know a fair few people on this site now... so sure Teabags, Fraser Mac, The Sloth can vouch for the fact I at least didn't steal money from them
  20. Aye I know Mike. He's not a con artist. And if he is I can give you his phone number so you can verbally abuse him or when he finally comes to Aberdeen you can beat him up in a dark alleyway
  21. i'm sure that some Immortal/Abbath ones were posted a while back but these were too good to not put them here!
  22. As the title says really. I want to go to this but not sure if I can make it as I might have work the next morning so staying over at a mates in Glasgow isn't first choice. So is anyone driving down? Will obviously chip in 15 or so for petrol money if anyone's got a free seat in the car. It's 11th December @ the ABC btw TicketWeb
  23. 25 a month direct from Orange... you can get it for 30 from the high street stores with a bigger choice of newer/fancier phones but if you're not bothered about that check here Pay as you go mobile phones | Mobile deals | Orange shop you have to choose the phone before it lets you choose tariff but most of them aside from the top end phones will be free on dolphin 30. When choose a phone to to the option to show all tariffs and it will be under there as 'best for texting'. Basically it's 400 minutes and unlimited texts
  24. Been looking forward to this since it was announced way back in May. A Textbook Tragedy released a new EP recently which was really good. White Lightning should be a blast live. The Arusha Accord's album came out on Monday and it's great too... just don't expect it to be like or compare it to Nightmares of the Ocean, as it's totally different. Interested to see what GOPB are like now... the guitarist/other singer/songwriter left a couple of months back so wonder how the replacement compares.
  25. Fea Jur by Lye By Mistake - incredible band if anyone hasn't heard of them. Mathcore band but vocalist left so this album is instrumental and a lot of the time is just wicked Jazz Fusion. Lye By Mistake debuts song from new album // News // Lambgoat has a song from it The Singularity by Divinity - one of my impulse limited edition buys Cd/dvd edition is limited to 100 copies worldwide hand signed and numbered by the band. Comes with Guitar/Drum tabs too so I can bemoan how much I suck in comparison to them. also preordered The Great Misdirect by Between the Buried and Me - can't wait for this
