:D i see Hypocrisy next week! and the black dahlia murder (sp?) tommorow :D what kinda songs does hypocrisy play stuff from catch 22 and virus i hope ...

They opened with Warpath and closed out with Let the Knife do the Talking from Virus. They mixed in a pretty decent blend of stuff from their previous albums in between, ranging from Impotent God from their first album to stuff from newer albums.

Why would you want stuff from Catch 22? That album was part of Hypocrisy's crap years.

Oh, and I won Metal Review's Green Carnation giveaway contest! Sweet!

Well it's a good chance their set list for your tour could be different, but probably not.

I think the Black Dahlia Murder is pretty cool. Who else would think of a song name called 'Statutory Rape'.

Have you ever listened to any brutal death metal or goregrind?

Dying Fetus - Kill Your Mother, Rape Your Dog

Cannibal Corpse - Stripped, Raped, and Strangled

Aborted - Gurgling Rotten Feces

And so forth. Of course, song titles don't make a band. The music is still very good. (Y)

Come to think of it, the song title "Statutory Rape" probably comes from their only female fans being 16-year old, Hot Topic wearing ___core girls crying about how much life sucks.

Yes, Omnium Gatherum is a good band. I haven't listened to them in a while, but you've put the idea back in my head. Perhaps when I get done listening to this new Psycroptic album I'll give them another go. That, however, might be a while.

Just saw In Flames, Trivium, Devildriver and Zao last night .... so so awesome... it was really impressive.

Zao = not good.

Devildriver put on an awesome show... they rock hard :punk:

Trivium is just incredible. one of my favorite bands. During their set they did a cover of some of Pantera's songs, namely Walk, to commemorate Dimebag since he was killed in Columbus. On top of all this, Mark, the lead singer of Chimaira, comes out on stage, randomly, to sing (scream) the Pantera songs w/ the band. Just so unexpected and so awesome :D

In Flames is the sh*t as usual. Awesome set, awesome show, not much else to say... speechless. Sold out show and the crowd loved it (Y)

I've been hearing a lot about Trivium and I finally gave them a chance. Rather unimpressed really. The vocals are absolute, utter **** in my opinion, so I won't even cover them beyond this.

They do have a few decent riffs here and there, but overall the guitarwork is incredibly uninspired. Nothing fresh, exciting, original etc...none of these words come to mind when I put on Ascendancy.

The rhythm section is incredibly boring as well. The only redeeming quality I can think of when it comes to percussion is some cool double bass here and there...but honestly, what modern metal band can't pull off some sparse double bass? No interesting fills, intricate beats, killer groove...none of it to be found here. The bass is far too low in the mix, though it might as well be, because it wasn't doing much either.

The only reason I can see someone being impressed by this band is having never heard a thrashy styled riff played over double bass. If you like that part, there are plenty of better bands that can do that (Dark Angel! Behemoth! Nile!).

/Me deletes ascendancy from hard drive.

Yeah i've never liked them to be honest. Yeah they have some good riffs but a band isnt all about if it can pull of the best riff.

2005 was the year when you heard none stop about how Trivium gonna be the next big thing :rolleyes:

How wrong :yes:

its called an open mind ;)

Boo! Hiss!

I'm just kidding, but metal is all I really listen to aside from a very few exceptions.

I don't particularly care for Trivium either (too metalcore-ish for my tastes), but I will be seeing CoB next month. They're playing with Through the Eyes of the Dead (some metalcore band, sigh) and Chimaira, who has their moments.

Glancing at Metal Archives seems others share my opinion. :p

Interestingly enough I just checked that myself earlier. I've never seen ratings so low for albums with more than say five reviews, not even newer In Flames crap or Soilwork's Stabbing the Drama.

      If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.

      TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results

      Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?

      There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
