I went to GIGANTOUR yesterday and I was really disappointed. Dream Theater was pretty good for the first two songs, the rest of their set seemd to drag on. Megadeth was ok, I could barely hear Dave's voice or his solos. I felt kinda bad for Fear Factory, they weren't really getting a whole lot from the crowd. I looked around and it looked like no one knew their songs but me and my friend.

I was really surprised that it didn't sell better here in Phoenix. The place was the most empty I've seen it. I was pretty disappointed, too. Fear Factory got a good reception here in Phoenix.

Did you check out any second stage bands?

Whitesnake is really good live nowadays, they give one heck of a show!

Yeah, they do! Coverdale sure has one of the greatest voices in the history of rock/metal! Quite funny, I watched them last fall, and standing at the first row, I started thinking "What the ****, is it singback?", cause he was singing a song with really high pitches but still didn't move his mouth particularly much, but it turns it out it was all his Botox :D :D

Sorry about that. I indeed missed your point and took your words in a different context.

You don't often see that on public forums. Blatently a very cool guy :)

I don't know much Opeth, but I watched a track on the dvd of the new england metal + hardcore festival 2003, and they seemed really doomey and suprisingly slow? Is that what the rest of their music is like? I'd hate to not check a band out further based on a misconception.

you seem to like trash metal, have you heard testament or annihilator, there some of my favorite thrash metal bands.

Thanks, will try to listen to them, any specific records? Although I love trash/m like old Metallica and Slayer, there's nothing like going in your car on a sunny day listening to Panama or Why Can't This Be Love or any other cheesy Van Halen-song, it just does it for me :D

Yeah I did, and I didn't really like any of the ones I saw, I didn't know who any of them were.

Malbojia, you were right about Onmyouza, I stated the wrong band. I meant to say Mono, now they are ambient Metal.

...and you MUST get the Live albums.

at least:

A Real Live One

Live At Donnington '92

They are soooooo great.  :yes:

I have boots of 1988 and 1992 Donington. Was at both, Maiden rocked the place both times.

Metal bands, eh?

I like to think I listen to a wide range of metal, although I'm more a fan of Melodeath and Metalcore. Anyone checked out Enforsaken? They're a pretty awesome melodic death metal band (their guitarists are awesome).

guys The new Opeth album is leaked and so Is the new disturbed album....

Im not encouraging anything but.. Opeth is kicking my ass right now!!!

I've 'acquired' the new Opeth album. As per usual, Opeth never ceases to amaze. They're so dynamic with their music. (Y)

since this is a metal-thread is hardcore and metalcore ok??? since i and seena a glimmer from anyone of either

i would definitely be interested in hardcore & metalcore discussion as well, but maybe in a different thread. what does the creator of this thread think? they are both pretty viable forms of metal.

i'm talking bands like; 7 angels 7 plagues, a life once lost, as i lay dying, between the buried and me, 100 demons, a jealousy issue, adamantium, champion, arson, bane, bleed the sky, botch, converge, etc. (this list could go on for a long time.)

My list of metal

From the old school: Sabbath, Priest, Maiden, Metallica, Megadeth...

More current: Type O Negative, Crowbar, Opeth, Lacuna Coil, Pantera, Down, Damageplan, BLS, Fear Factory, Life of Agony, Disturbed, Chimaira.

The new Crowbar is f'n brutal.

i dont really mind, just dont start arguing over whats better, people have there tastes and everyones diffrent, thats what makes the thread intresting.

as for jdb264c by testament, try "the new order" album. and annihilator anything really, but i like king of the kill, alice in hell, awakening the fury, carnival diablos.

Albums I look forward to:

Korn.

This will be really interesting to hear. The guys are starting the tour in just couple of days, so it shows that the moron didn't do much damage to the band's integrity. And judging by everything posted on Jon's blog, this will be an interesting album, because know they simply cannot risk having a bad album. Aaaarggh, man, I can't wait. The album is scheduled for an October release, with a single coming out in August, and Terry Date is mixing it.

Soulfly.

Yeah, I think this is the only album that was done by the same Soulfly (the same line-up from Prophecy). I also want to hear it because Eyesburn will be featured this time again (listen to Moses on Prophecy), only this time it will be only the singer, Kojot, and judging from that, this will be a straight up metal song, no reggae.

These two hold the top positions. Others include SOAD, Tool, even Staind. Limp Bizkit suck so much when it comes to descent information about what the hell is going on with them, I won't put them on the list.

    • XBOX is at the end of its generational life cycle and wasn't selling much anyway. They need to figure out the pricing for XBOX Helios. However, I'm not buying the DRAM shortage with AI preferring HBM. I think it's industry gouging.
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026: Best Dolby soundbar deals from Sony, Samsung, JBL, Polk, and more by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered the JBL BAR 800 which is a 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos/Vision soundbar. The unit is on sale for its lowest ever price of just $800 making it a solid offer. However, there are many more options to choose from and in this article, we have made a compilation of the best deals including from Sony, Polk, Yamaha, Denon, Samsung and more. Sony's BAR models are currently at their lowest prices which makes them solid offerings. The company's BRAVIA Theatre Bar lineup is designed to suit different home cinema needs. The Bar 5 is an entry-level 3.1-channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer, supporting Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X, S-Force PRO Front Surround, and Vertical Surround Engine for immersive audio with clear dialogue. The Bar 6 upgrades to a 3.1.2-channel configuration by adding dedicated up-firing speakers for more convincing overhead Atmos effects while retaining the wireless subwoofer. At the premium end, the Bar 7, Bar 8, and flagship Bar 9 are single-soundbar solutions featuring Sony’s 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology, which creates phantom speakers for a wider surround field. Bar 7 includes nine speaker units, Bar 8 increases this to eleven, and Bar 9 offers thirteen speaker driver units promising the most expansive soundstage and acoustic performance.
