If the consumption of whole energy drink is too much for you, try an energy shot :)

Choice tunes.

First time really tuning into Radiogrounds or any kind of radio in a long time.

I currently have a Nokia 2630, had it for ages.

Thinking of upgrading to a Sony Ericsson C905. Or maybe a Blackberry 8520.

I'm in the process of deciding on a new phone at the moment.

They can be very good at hiding it at times, as well, to a point that they almost convince themselves that everything is just fine. Then all it takes is one little set off, and total depression ensues.

Nearly all my friends and family are atheists or live secular lives and not a single one is depressed or anything of the sorts.

Maybe it's an American thing? Australia seems to be a very secular state.

As for myself I'd consider myself an Apathetic Atheist; I don't think there is anything afterlife including a higher being and I couldn't care otherwise. I live my life how I want and don't think about what will happen after.

100% agree on the Benighted part, Origin do alright for it too.

Hour of Penance and especially Fleshgod Apocalypse are master of Technical Brutal Death Metal.
They don't write tech stuff to be tech but because it actually sounds good and makes musical sense.

New Altar Of Plagues EP is amazing.

Their only really decent release is 'When You Were Shouting At The Devil...'

My favourite 'underground' band.

There's nothing elitist about having an ear for quality, and disregarding shitty bands/genres.

Disregarding genres is pretty much what being elitist is.

The "Church" didn't rape little boys...

But the church was there to protect and hide those who did.

I see this argument a lot, saying it wasn't the church that did anything. But the church has always been there for protect anyone who does wrong in the name of the holy spirit.

If you harbour a fugitive you are punished, yet it seems the church is exempt from such a principle?

Isn't one of your favourite bands Slipknot?

Pretty sure they go A LOT further with theatrics than Behemoth.

Best listened to with high quality headphones.

Been listening to Hour of Penance's new album pretty much on repeat all week.

So much awesome.

That doesn't even make sense.

on the verge of being mainstream because they get their dicks wet with money.

God forbid a band gets popular and makes money.

Hell, they're even popular with scene kids.

So is Iron Maiden. What's your point?

But, I digress, my real problem with Behemoth is their lack of originality or musical integrity.

How are they unoriginal?

Really digging The Temper Trap lately as far as anything mainstream and chill goes.

For my love of Metal, The Breathing Process have blown my mind.

You paid $200 for a bands entire discog and you don't even know what songs you like by them?

Good one.

Bacon.

Leviathan, motherfuckers

If is dissipates when you mute the strings it might be your pick-ups.

I could be totally wrong though.

It's a shame though, that paedophiles do and probably will continue to abuse children, sexual desire is a powerful thing to ignore for any living thing.

A child can never give consent to something their bodies and minds cannot even comprehend.
So any sexually intimate interaction between a paedophile and child is harm. Even watching child pornography is indirectly causing harm, by supporting the creation of it.

To bad most of you won't listen to the whole song and get to appreciate his range.

Are you taking the piss? :S,

How many people do you know that can sing in such extremes and make it work?

Going from such extreme chaotic screams to powerful cleans in the same song.
You can't deny the talent there. Even if Black Metal/Grindcore isn't your style.

Mikael Åkerfeldt is also another amazingly gifted vocalist.

Dave Hunt is a vocal genius.
