My proclivity to fix other people’s audio problems is well-known. So I’m excited about this, a note-for-note remake of Metallica’s St. Anger, recorded by guys from Adust and Grace The Skies. No, I’d never heard of them before either, but it’s a great way of getting your name on the map. See the rest here
This handy tool for generating fake band names is 100% spot-on. I’ll never need to struggle again! (Thanks to @sfbrian for the link.)
Awww yeah, it’s about ten days before we get started with the Arsies. And for your listening pleasure, I’ve put together a TIDAL playlist of all the contenders. (I’ll also be added battle-specific playlists to all our installments as we go along.)
Okay, the wife is not feeling well and I have succumbed to the same flu. However, I remain restless and wild and here I am on Saturday night in the man cave. See my cat respond to the new Within Temptation live Blu-Ray. I am now watching the new Judas Priest Blu-Ray! See the rest here
How do you make Meshuggah heavier? Slow it down enough to drop the tuning by 4 semitones, that’s how.
Wife’s asleep. Got a dissertation defense to attend tomorrow. And yet here I am in the JaPaBoCaveTM enjoying Slipknot live @ Download 2009 with my cat Lucifer. R.I.P Paul Gray…
Live Report :
Knotfest Japan 2014
Makuhari Messe, Chiba, Japan
November 15-16, 2014
Completely sold out, Knotfest Japan launched in the crisp, cold morning with two opening bands, including the Japanese hardcore band Crystal Lake. Their brief set got the crowd warmed up, with hardcore fans “picking up change” in the pit and the rest of us head-banging. See the rest here
The merch line is epic. It opened at 8am. I took this picture at around 1pm. Somebody’s getting paid!
I’m coming at ya live on location at Knotfest Japan! It’s still early going on Day 1, but I can report it’s completely sold out, unseasonably cold, and I saw Fred Durst. He joined the Japanese hardcore band Crystal Lake on a early morning cover of ‘Rollin.
Just got back from the first day of Loud Park. You may know that Manowar cancelled their headline spot due to a fire that delayed their gear’s arrival. However, the big story of the day was how unnecessary Manowar is. See the rest here
