pretty bland album overall, as usual for LOG... the yelling vocals on it are awful. still going to their show in may, but going mostly just to see municipal waste again.thorski wrote:Artist-Lamb of God

This is what all the cool kids are listening to now.
That's bizarre? I've never heard anybody talk bad about that album until now? It's a great album. Everybody I know likes it. Brad Delp (RIP) was one of the best rock singers ever too!MarieM wrote:^^You guys are awesome!!^^
I have taken a ton of crap for loving that album! : - ) Thank you!
Mastodon is some heavy sh*t. It's amazing how tuned down the guitars are in a lot of metal bands these days. You can pull the strings a foot off the fretboard they're so loose. I've always tuned down a 1/2 step and have been playing some drop D stuff lately, but there's bands that tune down to Drop A and even lower. I bought a guitar off someone from Craigslist and went to their studio in NY to pick it up and the guy didn't even have the B and E strings on a couple of his guitars? Said he never really played them so he took them off?Tricks wrote:pretty bland album overall, as usual for LOG... the yelling vocals on it are awful. still going to their show in may, but going mostly just to see municipal waste again.thorski wrote:Artist-Lamb of God

as far as metal goes, the new buried inside, antigama, obscura, satyricon, and acid witch albums are all great. can't wait for the new mastodon album to drop.
I'll take anyones opinion who likes black flag with a grain of salt.Tricks wrote:check out the bands floor or torche- those bands use drop a tuning, but then use a "bomb string", where the top string is just sort of dangling off of the guitar. ridiculously heavy, and while it sounds kind of silly in theory, they pull it off well.

"in return" is a good start, then go on to "tarpit carnivore" to experience the heaviness.
Well you are entitled to your opinion, but i did mention lamb of god was what the cool kids were listening to.Tricks wrote:this coming from the dude who thinks lamb of god are awesome? sorry, but I'll stick to a innovative, tried and true punk band to a rehashed boring metal band any day.
What the hell is a "bomb string"? Torche has some punk influence. I hear a little sex pistols in the first song. A little too downtuned. I'm more an old school metalhead: Priest, Sabbath, Maiden, Metallica, Ozzy (with Randy Rhoads), Old VH, Dio, etc... Also into a lot of new stuff in the last 10 years like Nevermore, Avenged Sevenfold, Disturbed, Dragonforce, (Children of Bodom, Lamb of God and Trivium - good music. Hate the cookie vocals), etc. Can't name everything, but A lot of great stuff out there. Not a fan of black/death metal although I like some of the music. Sometimes there's such a thing as tuning down too much till it sounds like giant rubber bands vibrating and you loose that tightness of the guitar...Tricks wrote:check out the bands floor or torche- those bands use drop a tuning, but then use a "bomb string", where the top string is just sort of dangling off of the guitar. ridiculously heavy, and while it sounds kind of silly in theory, they pull it off well.
