Lucky ******!! I badly want to see Amon Amarth - shame I left Canada just before they arrived :cry:

As for album recommendations:

1349 - Hellfire (Black Metal)

Vinterriket - any album they've made!!! (Dark Ambient)

Lykathea Aflame - Elvenfris (Symphonic Death/Progressive Metal)

In fact just check my metal site out, I review a fair amount each month and I'm sure you'll find some ideas for albums on there ;)

You have some nice reviews on there :woot:

Some nice reads. :D

We went to see Inflames with Motorhead the other night, quite a drive there and back, and I had work the next morning which combined with a stomping 10 day old headache meant I left right after inflames, and didn't see motorhead. Felt kinda disrespectful, but at the end of the day I'm just not into them.

Inflames were great, well worth the money + trip. I can't wait for Come Clarity, I've heard only *very very* good things so far!!!

Nice site... there are some pretty nice reviews.

I will need to check out some of those album recommendations.

I love Dimmu Borgir and I wasn't too happy with the re-recording of Stormblast. I guess I got used to the "new" Dimmu. And In Flames' new album is pretty good. I haven't quite got my teeth really sunk into it, yet. I'm sure the more I listen to it the more I'll like it.

Found a great Death Metal band named Psycroptic (http://www.metal-archives.com/). Really good technical Death. Also I've been listening to a lot of Iniquity (Death Metal from Denmark) which is also good stuff. And lastly, Crowpath. Spazzy/Technical Metal from Willowtip (really awesome stuff).

I've been listening to Psycroptic for over a year, and I agree. They're an excellent tech-death outfit, and definitely one of the best Aussie bands out there. If you haven't, try to score a copy of their self-released first album, Isle of Disenchantment. It's not quite as good as their first label album The Sceptre of the Ancients, but very good for an independent release.

If you try In Flames, listen to their older stuff... the newer stuff isnt that good. I suggest anything from Reroute to Remain and before that.

Colony was one of their worst albums..very nu-metal type stuff. New album is much heavier :devil:

yep, I have both those albums. Recently discovered Solitude Aeturnus which is a killer heavy/doom metal band from Texas. I'd heard of them before but never really listened to them until now. Amazing music with some killer vocals. Also been listening to a lot of Neuraxis, and I can definitely say this is some of the best if not the best current death metal out there. Great technicallity and musicianship from these guys. Both bands highly recommended.

On topic: Lately I've been listening to Chimaira's selftitled, it rawks, lol. Can someone recommend me some other Chimaira stuff... Or similar trash/metalcore bands? Thx.

Check out Bleeding Through, I have a review for their new album up here:

Bleeding Through - The Truth @ Astrofaes Metal Domain

It's definitely their best album to date - highly recommended to fans of melodic deathcore (Unearth, As I Lay Dying, Darkest Hour etc.)

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
