Random violence is a nice way to describe (poorly) attempted arson.

I took me 4 years to be able to beat the first part of the game... the bit before the elevator.

And now I can't beat REX :(.

Doesn't it say 'Made in Mexico' under the Fender logo too :P?

Or on the back of the headstock somewhere.

Still, I never knew about the silver text meaning Mexi.

Well of course Mex Fenders are lower quality. The same way Epiphone's are low quality. Thats just obvious. But not everyone can afford the high end stuff. And theres a lot of shit on the market in the lower price range. And I don't believe that Mex Fenders will be anywhere near the lowest quality for that price range.

Ambient music will only benefit from being played live. As that ambience will be much louder and richer around you.

Whale noises are ambient, but it'd be way better in person.
Like Dent said, pretty much everything is better live... except DragonForce.

says the biggest Wimp Bizkit fan...

I don't get your point? I was dissing Deathcore, not Metalcore or Nu-Metal.
Also, if you paid attention I said that I checked out Chocolate Starfish for nostalgia and then said that it was actually a terrible album that even fond memories couldn't save.
It's no Hybrid Theory :P.

It's true. When I hear a sound downstairs or something I don't think 'Ooh that sounds like it could be lots of money and chocolate and pretty wimmins masturbating'. I think 'Shit, that could be someone with a knife'.
I don't fear the unknown, I fear that the unknown may result in me dying.

There is nothing wrong with FIFA.

Pro Evo is superior

It's so not. There once was a time when Pro Evo shat all over FIFA. That time ended in 2008 though. Pro is terrible nowadays. Every player runs like a chicken, there is still no flair whatsoever and players like Messi can't outrun slow defenders.

Pro got complacent and FIFA got good.

Fuck Laguna.
If you want something to cover all bases get a Fender or an S series Ibanez or something.

That means you can't play some quiet ambient stuff like Jean Baudins - Trancend?

No, it doesn't. It just means it more suited to a Rock sound. It doesn't mean its impossible to get a good clean sound out of it.

Also how is it possible to delay the sound on the guitar?

Easy, you just use a delay pedal.

I completely disagree.
It's usage with Metal now is bland, but due to Death's age I think its fine.
Plus given its simplicity and the lack of other Metal bands with such a name (at the time) I don't think its uninspired at all.

At 11/19/09 04:23 PM, DeIirium wrote: Nope. Death is just a really boring name for a band, and spiderwebs and the grim reaper belong in kindergarten halloween decoration.

Nowadays your points would be valid, but Death started 25 years ago. Death wouldn't of been a boring name back then. You can pretty much be assured they got their first, given how their just Death and not Death Something or Something Death.

You're wrong, of course.

That dog seemed to be very aware of what it was doing. Scarily so.

I thought tonights Buzzcocks shat all over the rest of this series. Perhaps because I have a huge mancrush on both Martin Freeman and (especially) Charlie Brooker.
I really hope Freeman becomes a regular host. And get Skinner to replace Noel. That would make me a very happy boy :).

I bought an Individual Thought Patterns shirt that was tits but it was out of stock so I was refunded. And I've since been unable to afford one :(.

iwnet contains a trojan. Pissed off boycotters or a conspiracy theorist's dream when Activision puts trojans on their site?

It wasn't Activision that put it there though. It will just be an honest mistake that you're making seem like they did it intentionally.

Not really.
Pretty much every Doom and Sludge band have easily readable logos and they're far more tr00 than your average Grindcore band.

Nearer the time (when I'll have money) I'll definately consider it should I see some tickets going.
I'd love to see them live again, knowing what I know now, i.e. their songs and that I actually like them.

I think I'm the only one who has the game and isn't playing it :(.
I want to get my Plat for GTA IV first :'(.

Also I think I'm getting a little HD tv for my room for Christmas and after I took my PS3 downstairs to play on the big TV playing it on my old bedroom TV is a bit disappointing :(. Its just as beautiful.
