RIP Dimebag ​

......Soulfly tomorrow. Hoping to get close enough to the stage to see Max's dreads flyin' LOL - and THEN.........DIMMU on Friday! Won't be able to get close enough to see Shag up close and personal

It is damn cold here in NJ. I am not looking forward to standing in line for an hour+ each night waiting to get in to see the shows

How was Soulfly??? I haven't seen them since 2003 but I have seen them live 8 times...I used to be obsessed with Soulfly's first album....

Soulfly reminded me today 12/11 is the 12 year anniversary of the death of Lynn Strait and Dobbs of Snot.....

RIP Lynn Strait your music will live on forever and Get Some shall be blasted Loud and Proud forevermore!!!!

I enjoyed Soulfly.

Max seems a little "out of sorts". Getting older and heavier- I was a little worried about him at the start of the show. Reminds me a bit of Ozzy. But- he did not disappoint.

Dimmu was incredible- except (here I go again!) Their lights were blinding! All I could see where silhouettes on stage
This vid was taken a few days before our concert.

Let me ask you- what do you think about Dawn of Ashes? I never heard of them- they opened for Dimmu and all I can say is, my jaw dropped. LOL- but- I must say- I enjoyed them!

 

[metalis4ever]

Dawn of Ashes are ok, I haven't heard their new album but I own one of their older ones "The Crypt Injection" ...not too bad kind of like an odd mix of Industrial Metal and Black Metal.....I will have to check out their new album I don't even know the name of it, I had heard they were coming out with a new one though....When I saw Dimmu last month they toured with Blood Red Throne and Enslaved and it was amazing!!!! But I agree the strobes were bad not Children of Bodom bad but bad none the less....

Yeah I almost went to the Soulfly show here last week but I didn't want my memories of them to be washed away....in my opinion they haven't been the same since Mikey Doling left the band a few albums ago....I'm an old school Soulfly fan I saw them live 6 times before '00 and 2 times between '00 and '03. I love Max though, did they play "Bleed" if so who did they have sing Durst's part? It can't be Dana's little brother still? It was awesome when I saw them one of the times back in '98 it was with Incubus(before they sold out), Hed(PE) and Snot and during "Bleed" Lynn Strait from Snot came out and did the vocals and DJ Product from Hed(PE) scratched.... See I have some love for Nu Metal(Hard Rock) but only certain bands After all I saw most of those "Nu Metal" bands live way before they got big.....

Well- of course after seeing them last night, this morning I had to check out some vids. I was wondering why the vids I was watching were major techno compared to what I heard last night! It was like night and day. So, off to do some research. They changed "genres" just last year. The new CD "Genocide Chapters" CA-RUNCHEZ! I love it. I just downloaded it. I am now a fan

ETA- have you seen them now they have (what DH keeps saying about them....) a new M.O? HOLYYYYYY $#@!

Boy- what 24 hours can do in your music life is amazing!

Blood Red Throne and Enslaved opened for Dimmu last night. I liked Blood Red Throne, not Enslaved so much, I am SO not into screaming!

OMG- speaking of screaming LOL. Straight Line Stitch opened for Soulfly! I hate SLS!!! I have since the first time I heard them. - the screaming is just too much. But- I must say- I really enjoyed watching Alexis Brown! I said to DH- "OK, she has got to be the best headbanger......EVERRR!" That hair! She was too cool. I did enjoy her singing when she used her um, "regular" voice.

SPLIT YOUR LUNGS WITH BLOOD AND THUNDER WHEN YOU SEE THE WHITE WHAAAALE

Mastodon is my band. <3

I'm a die hard metal fan, AND a die hard Disney fan. Mickey Mouse gave us the horns when he saw us in our Dethklok t-shirts during a parade. I think Mickey has a little metal in him, too.

Yeah I just checked out the new Dawn of Ashes, pretty good I will ad it to the list of albums to pick up...yeah their older stuff is Industrial Metal....

WHAT!?!?!? How can you not like Enslaved!!!! I think that they blew Dimmu off the stage!!!! Putting the screaming aside Enslaved are amazing musically....

I like SLS mainly because of Alexis Brown, I have a thing for chic vocalists Plus Nothing wrong with Metalcore I own two of their albums "To Be Godlike" and "When Skies Wash Ashore".


I still don't understand your whole dislike for screaming??? I can understand with poser screamo bands but you are missing out on so many amazing Metal and Metalcore bands that use that type of vocals!!!!

Screaming just GRATES on my nerves no matter who the band is.

LOL- If I can't get past the screaming I don't even want to hear the rest. The music does not matter to me if the vocals are not JUST as good. For me, it is a package deal with a band- it's all or nothing with me.

There are bands that I see play live that I think "man, this musician is really good but should get out of this band and move on" just b/c I hate the way the singer sounds.

 

[Disconsin Gal]

I'm totally with you on this one. Sometimes I can get past it, but not often. It's probably the singer in me.

 

[metalis4ever]

Well I will just have to keep the "Screaming" band suggestions to myself

Have you guys listened to the new Flotsam and Jetsam!?!?!?!?!? It is so AMAZING!!!!!!! So oldschool sounding

On another note I am pumped about next Monday 12/20 I am going to the Icarus Witch and Paul Di'Anno show in Ma!!!!! Di'Anno is playing the first Maiden album from beginning to end, I wish it were "Killers" but "Iron Maiden" will suffice. I've seen Iron Maiden live 7 times w/ Bruce and given that I am old but not old enough (I was 1 y.o. when Paul left) I have never seen Maiden live with Di'Anno so this is the closet I will ever get and I'm not going to lie I am wicked excited.

 

[metalis4ever]

Headed to the Icarus Witch and Paul Di'Anno show....should be interesting....I think it will be the first time since 1998 that I will be the youngest person in the crowd Can't wait to hear "phantom of the Opera" sung with the original vocals I love Bruce but Paul was and hopefully still is so raw.....

My friend from up that way just im'ed me the same thing haha. Have fun at that show. Last time I saw Icarus Witch was at least two lineup changes ago(well, the one was confusing so I don't even know if it counts lol). I went to a cd release party of theirs a few years back, they're a good time.

Symphony X is coming close to here and... playing Orlando on my birthday when I'm down in Disney... now that's a good trip.

Considering there's a lot of bands that switch screaming and clean vocals, that might just not be your sound, not necessarily the singer in you. My friend is an opera singer but he still gets into a lot of different vocals( symphonic, power, death, black, all types of metal). Everybody's got their own preference, and the metal scene has got a lot of great diversity, but we all come together on being the path less traveled.

To each his(or her) own

Paul Di'Anno destroyed life!!!! He reminded me why "Killers" is my favorite Iron Maiden album....

Fan: "You're not Bruce!!!"
Di'Anno : "You're right I'm not Bruce, I'm the real deal"

Icarus Witch was great live, their new vocalist is heads and shoulders above the original. I am picking up their new album today it's supposed to be pretty good, most people have given in an 8 our of 10 in reviews. They pulled double duty though as they served as Di'Anno's band....This was the first show playing with Di'Anno, they didn't even have time to rehearse and they hit it out of the park!!! They even included an extra song in the encore with an impromptu "Highway to Hell" cover, Di'Anno sounded amazing you can tell he was singing from the heart on that one as he played it as a tribute to Bon Scott.....

Yeah Symphony X is playing here in April but judging by the lineup up here I think it may end up being the headliners of New England Metal and Hardcore Festival.

Symphony X
Nevermore
Soilwork
Powerglove

I only say that because NE Metal fest is always in April and I don't see how Soilwork fits into that lineup??? I could be wrong though.

That is awesome, are they playing House of Blues??? Great venue, I remember back in 1999 when I did the Disney College program I saw Slayer with Sick of it All and Meshuggah (weird lineup) there. It was awesome though because Araya was like "We're Ssssslaaayyyyeerrrr and we're playing in the house of the f'n Mouse!!!!!...this is Blood Staind Mind"

 

[fenrir58]

Sorry it took me so long to get back... work was crazy (holidays and retail..). Symphony X is playing somewhere called The Firehouse or something. I was kind of hoping it would be HoB but hey, I get Disney and metal all in one week, I can't complain.

BTW, Soilwork is on the tour, so although it might be the fest, that's not why Soilwork is there.

That's cool...I've never heard of "Firehouse" is it in Downtown Orlando??

Yeah I still don't see how Soilwork fits in that lineup Kind of strange...although I have seen odder lineups for example Chimaira, Immortal and Manowar....As you can imagine Chimaira got booed off the stage, it was actually very entertaining to see the Immortal fans and Manowar fans band together in their common dislike....

You haven't heard of Firehouse because I can't read tickets lol... It's called Firestone Live. It's in downtown Orlando, they seem to get a lot of the metal shows.

I mean, Soilwork would be weirder on the bill if Blackguard wasn't there, but with them on it too, it kind of can make Soilwork almost fit >_O.
