I just got the new Children Of Bodom single, In Your Face. Its ****ing awesome. I really hate the song Oops I did it again, but COB really made their cover of it much better. I guess it's all the growls and pinch harmonics that make it better. The title song In Your Face is unlike anything COB has ever done, well, what I mean is that its more along the lines of the song Sixpounder or Trashed, Lost, & Strungout. It's a great song!!

"Jesus is f'ing METAL" LMAO great shirt!

586339082[/snapback]

Mike liked it. He laughed and joked, "Neal Morse has that shirt!" Mike's shirt was funny, too. It says "Male Escort Service" on the left patch, and "Dick" on the right. (Y) I think we have very similar senses of humor.

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.

And by moron are you referring to Head? Why are people damning the guy for doing something that he feels is the best for himself and for his family? I used to like Korn a lot, but their style changed too much for me to really like them after Life Is Peachy. I can't condemn Head for his choice to leave the band and to pursue what he feels will make him happier, to be there for his kids, to rebuild his family, and to follow his beliefs. If you ask me, I think he is the biggest man from that group for doing what he did. Everyone in that band will have their own side of the story, and in the end it doesn't matter who says what. Actions speak louder than words.

Indeed, that hair is crazy :laugh:

I thought it was awesome the first time, when he cut his hair after he had long hair for years... but he's going more crazy by the day, can't really say he looks very metal anymore :p lol

Btw, is it my eyes, or is Mike's beard blue?! :blink:

Awesome. I saw them twice on IAW, but I never hung around to meet them.<kicks self>

Yep. Platinum. I don't recommend it. If you can catch them on tour when they do the Octavarium tour, you'll probably have just as much time after the show as I did, if they show up to sign for fans. The only good thing was having 2nd row-center for all the bands, but that wasn't anywhere near worth the money I paid. So I give an enthusiastic 2-thumbs down for platinum package "experience." The only thing platinum about the experience was the platinum reaming($$) they(FanFire) gave me to have it. Never again.

I am not joking. Just between all of us, the single got leaked 2 weeks early. The only song I dont have that's on the single is the censored version of In Your Face. But I dont really care because I dont want to listen to a censored song.

I'm gonna guess it got leaked because of release parties and they were handing it out, I don't know, just guessing.

well, i think the only thing the platinum package is good for is meeting petrucci. i love the guy and he can do no wrong in my opinion but the last time they were here he refused to come out of the bus and sign autographs because he was too tired. portnoy came out and signed for all the fans but he said that petrucci retired for the evening. if i remember correctly he's done that several times, but what can you say?

well, thanks for the mini-review of the platinum package. i've always wondered about it and i've even considered it a time or two but now i know to steer clear of it.

Can't really blame him, if you just played 3 hours straight. I'm a musician myself and I know how hard it is...

Petrucci also has these things quite fast, Biaxident anyone? ;) They were recording Liquid Tension Experiment 2, and Petrucci got so tired at one point, they had to call an ambulance for him, because he had a severe headache from all the freaking on the guitar. The doctors gave him Biaxin, and so the song Biaxident was born :p

interesting story and it's a great song

586340748[/snapback]

Indeed :yes: Great song, I tried covering it with my band, but the bassguitarist didn't quite feel like it :p Me and the guitarist had already learned the whole song :laugh:

Btw, I believe this story was in the booklet from the CD... but I could be mistaking... :)

    • Anyone Here With Turbo Pascal Experience?

      By +virtorio · Posted

      Briefly used Turbo Pascal (and Turbo C++) in 97 and soon after that I bought PC magazine that included a full version of Delphi 2. I still use Delphi today, some 29 years later.
    • Age of Empires Mobile comes to PC, here's how to carry over progress from your phone

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Age of Empires Mobile comes to PC, here's how to carry over progress from your phone by Ivan Jenic Image: YouTube/Microsoft Microsoft just released Age of Empires Mobile for PC. The game, officially called Age of Empires Mobile: PC Edition, is available for free on Steam and Microsoft Store, almost two years after its initial release for handheld devices. Age of Empires is one of those franchises that entire generations grew up with. The original came out in 1997, and immediately got people hooked to building civilizations and crushing their enemies on the battlefield. However, the franchise today is a far cry from its roots, as Age of Empires Mobile is, well, a game optimized for handheld devices, and not a classic RTS title we’ve all loved for years. And, of course, it includes in-game purchases. The PC version is still a mobile game at its core, but it’s been optimized for desktop play. There’s mouse control, full keyboard compatibility, and a refined UI. Microsoft also refreshed the visuals with some 4k textures, so the game should look better on larger screens. The game supports Crossplay, so you can switch between your phone, tablet, and PC without losing anything. But linked progress doesn’t come out of the box, as you have to enable it first. Here’s how to link your progress: On your mobile device, open Age of Empires Mobile. Go to Settings (Gear icon) > Account. Select Bind Account and choose a sign-in option. Once you enable account binding, sign in on PC using the same method, and your progress will be accessible across all your devices. Xbox Game Pass subscribers also get a bonus reward pack on PC, which includes: 1 Monthly Pass Token 1 Custom Resource Chest 10 Universal 60-Minute Speed-Ups 1,000 Empire Coins Exclusive Player Portrait Frame You can find more info about Age of Empires Mobile: PC Edition, as well as download links, on the Age of Empires official website.
    • Apple Watch Series 11 GPS just crashed to 30% off in this fast-moving Prime Day deal

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Apple Watch Series 11 GPS just crashed to 30% off in this fast-moving Prime Day deal by Karthik Mudaliar The Apple Watch Series 11 is available for $279, down from its $399 list price, saving buyers $120, or 30%. Amazon labels the offer as selling fast, so the current price may not remain available for long. This GPS model features a 42mm aluminum case, an Always-On Retina LTPO3 OLED display capable of reaching up to 2,000 nits, and an Ion-X glass surface with improved scratch resistance. Apple rates Series 11 for up to 24 hours of normal use or up to 38 hours in Low Power Mode, with fast charging providing up to eight hours of use from a 15-minute charge. Health and fitness tools include sleep scoring, temperature sensing, ECG support, heart-rate alerts, workout tracking, sleep apnea notifications, and hypertension notifications, where available. The watch also carries IP6X dust resistance and 50-meter water resistance. This configuration is best suited to iPhone owners who want comprehensive health tracking, notifications, contactless payments, and workout data without stepping up to a larger or cellular-equipped model. The smaller case should also appeal to buyers who prefer a lighter watch, while the S/M band fits wrists measuring 130mm to 180mm. With the current generation now significantly below its usual retail price, this is a strong time to replace an aging Apple Watch or buy a first model without compromising on Apple’s newest health and display features. Grab the discounted Apple Watch Series 11 (sold and shipped by Amazon) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake

      By +Edouard · Posted

      The laptop in the bedroom is an Acer with i7-10510U CPU. Acer's website states they will not be upgrading it so I had little choice other than disable secure boot. I know next to nothing on these matters so hopefully it will be fine.
