How is everyone doing? I haven't had a chance to drop into Neowin much over the past week.

Cradle of Filth are hardly death metal... And I'm pretty sure any death metal listeners wouldn't be into HIM.

Cradle of Filth used to be a black metal band, but now they're considered "extreme gothic metal" if you want to get overly technical. And I agree about the HIM comment, bleh.

What is a good metal band similiar to Children of Bodom? They rock, and I need more bands similiar to them 8)

If you like CoB you'll also like Norther. Both bands sound very, very similar.

Arch Enemy doesn't sound like CoB. Neither did At the Gates. You can't just throw out well-known Scandanavian acts to compare them. They're melo-death metal bands while CoB is power/speed with harsh vocals. If you want CoB-like sound, seriously check out Norther.

I think it's funny how many metal heads get so bothered about people mislabelling genres. The world is going to end when someone calls Slayer Death Metal, fyi. ;)

Looking forward to the new Decapitated, looking forward to seeing Nile live as well. Hopefully I get a ticket.

Anyone here listen to Opera IX?

True, I just wanted to reccomend Amon Amarth, and I don't have a ****ing clue whats labelled as what in metal... is the Black Dahlia Murder thrash? or speed? or death? . . .

Anyone here like BDM? I can't quite help thinking my current love of 'closed casket requiem' might be a little unhealthy.

Oh and how heard of are Viking Skull? I saw them live and tbh (I'm sorry) wasn't impressed, would probably need a while to get into it. That said, they put on a good show - using a grinder on their guitar at the end sending a shower of sparks each and every way.

Norther is great, thanks a lot man (Y)

Yes sir, great band.

I got tickets to Opeth's show in NYC next month as well as Decapitated/Nile on the 6th.

Opera IX - [The Black Opera Symphoniae Mysteriorum In Laudem Tenebrarum #06] ACT VI The Sixth Seal [7:50] :-D

I wish I could find more of their stuff.

Those are the two shows I'm trying to go to as well, hahah.

If anyone is really into Norse Mythology or Viking themes, you should check out Equilibrium's album Turis Fratyr and Falkenbach's latest release, Heralding - The Fireblade. Of course, you can always check out classics such as Ensiferum's two albums and Wintersun.

    • I always thought the moon gets a lot of impact because there’s no atmosphere, so surely building a moon base is only going to end in disaster?

    • This piece of ###### is probably one of the most hated apps that ever existed.
    • Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is heavily used in work and school environments, and perhaps one of its core but extremely useful features is the ability to record meetings. In past years, Microsoft has further improved upon this functionality by integrating AI, but you do need a Microsoft 365 Copilot license to leverage most, if not all, all of those capabilities. Now, the Redmond tech firm is making another significant enhancement in the area of Teams meeting recordings. Up until now, if you wanted to access Teams recordings, you had to arduously locate the meeting invite and navigate to the dedicated tab, or go to the cloud storage location such as a SharePoint site. This was a rather overwhelming activity, especially if you don't remember the name of the meeting or the meeting occurred quite a while ago. Microsoft is now attempting to solve this problem through a dedicated Recap app that consolidates all your recordings. This centralized experience will allow users to find all recordings from the past 30 days and also offer access to other related services such as transcripts and AI-powered summaries. Customers will have the option to search for recordings, filter them, and review multiple meetings by generating AI-powered podcast-style recaps. The Recap app will list all available recordings in both thumbnail and list views. The former is shown below: And here is how Teams users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can select multiple recordings to generate a podcast-style audio recap: Microsoft has emphasized that the Recap app is pre-installed in Teams but it will not be pinned by default. Users will able to navigate to the Teams app store from the left rail, and pin it from the apps section. It will be enabled by default for all users once it becomes available. It's worth noting that while Teams recordings and transcripts can be accessed by all users governed by existing permissions, AI-powered features like intelligent summaries, audio recaps, and video recaps will require a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. The Recap app will be generally available to Teams users on Windows, Mac, and the web by the end of next month, with mobile support coming soon.
