I use Last.fm a lot to find out when any decent non-local bands are coming my way.

Communist Adventure Team

Such a fun name.

These will give you a good preview of his music.

Ocean Machine: Biomech
Terria
Synchestra

But with Devin every album is always so different.

So I just checked out Grand Magus, seen them mentioned a few times around here, I think mostly by Ponos and Sensey?

Anyway, fucking loving what I've hard so far, which is mostly stuff from their new album. Will be definitely checking them out much further (:

Oh shit, look at that.

Fleshgod Apocalypse - In Honour of Reason at 3:05

Tops anything I've heard all year by far.

This. So much.

Slim/Skinny > Baggy

Unless you're fat, then please stay away from tight/slim fitting clothing.

Actually it's an excess of what's required.

Like blowing up a car with a nuclear warhead rather than a much smaller bomb.

Para Bellum by Vader is by far my favourite album opening.

Fits just so perfectly

Pretty much the whole album.

Good Metal = / = Mainstream

MOSTLY all the time

Bulllllshit mate.

Behemoth are amazing, one of the most influential pioneers of Blackened Death Metal around.

They are allowed to be popular.

Some people like it some people don't.

Not really that hard to understand.

Personal taste, bruh.

New Years Eve parties are always insane.

And always get progressively better.

Hell yes, Behemoth and Nile are touring Australia next year.

Devastated that Destruction aren't playing at Metal Month any more, replaced by Malevolent Creation instead, which is... ok I guess. Not a HUGE MC fan to be honest though.

Hey guiz I listen to Lady Gaga, I actually really enjoy her music, I find it very upbeat and easy to listen to. They lyrics aren't really very intelligent, but they are still fun.

I'm actually going to see her live next year with a couple of lady friends :)

Just because I have this opinion on Lady Gaga doesn't mean I don't fully appreciate, enjoy and understand Metal in all of its forms.

I still prefer Metal over pretty much everything else but having diversity no matter what it is really shouldn't have some kind of taint on your musical 'credability'.

This thread is now about trains.

Instrumental.

Ivan
Hector
Victor

I would have associated these names with Russia more than Mexico.

Beautiful.

Too bad the music is horrid.

You can not check out Funeral Doom and not listen to all of Shape of Despair's albums.

It's just how it works, yo.

No One Escapes Us - Aeon

So I saw Amon Amarth on the 27th.

They have an awesome live sound and the energy from the crowd was intense as fuck.

Beyonce.

Just... eugh.

That's actually a more agnostic view.

Atheism is more of a refusal that a "God" exists at all.

Any ideas as to what the other three songs were?

I rememeber reading somewhere that Opeth always plays ten songs when they are headling a show.

Just remembered they played something from Blackwater Park too, I think might have been Bleak.

Also maybe Reverie/Harlequin Forest.

Can't even really guess for the 3rd song.
I actually didn't count how many songs they played though :p
