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.)

    • Microsoft admits one of the most crucial Outlook features is currently broken by Sayan Sen Microsoft is making some decent progress when it comes to Windows 11. Recently we have confirmed reports of some rather useful improvements landing in the next version of the OS, 26H2, wherein GPU driver TDR crashes may finally be fixed, plus the company is also allowing users to disable web content on the Search. On the Outlook front though things have not been so rosy. Last month in May we reported several problems affecting basic functionalities on the app. These included a problem where documents would open blank or corrupt themselves. Following that, Quick Steps, a very useful feature, would no longer work correctly, and finally, Microsoft acknowledged a problem wherein images would fail to load up properly inside the email. Microsoft had resolved those bugs later and almost exactly a month after we reported on them, the company has now admitted a new similarly basic issue, this time on Macs. Users recently started noticing that Outlook would no longer display email threads properly as the original message itself was not displayed. An affected user Tsoumpas, C (ngmb) nicely described the problem in a forum post they made on Microsoft's site. They wrote: "Description of the issue: After updating Outlook for Mac [Version 16.110 (26061317)] on 18/6/2026, replying to any email no longer includes the original message in the reply window. Prior to the update, replies correctly contained the original email text below my response. Expected behavior: The original message should be included in the reply, as in previous Outlook versions and according to the configured reply settings. Actual behavior: The reply window contains only a blank composition area (or only my response), with none of the original email text included." Obviously this must be a highly frustrating for users as noted by several in that thread. The post, at the time of writing, has also been upvoted by more than 40 users indicating that is a fairly widespread bug. Thankfully Microsoft seems to have acknowledged the problem right around that time as it opened a new issue on its official website. In the support article, the company recommends switching to Outlook for Mac from the legacy app, where the problem appears to be happening.
