So what new albums you guys got this week :p

A friend of mine found Opeth's Deliverance for me going at ?4.99 and I found Unearth's new album III: in the eyes of fire going for ?10.50 couldn't go wrong with those prices.

I need another 3 Opeth albums before I have them all.

Mate, probably not a good idea to make implicit the fact that you're downloading illegally :-)

lol don't see what problem is i mean i havent stated where i got it from. Also i must get this link as one of the metal bands sees downloading as a plus :p

Found it

KREATOR Frontman: Downloading 'Helps The Music To Become More Popular'

"I don't know, really. I mean, we never really had to experience any major? all the 'downloading kills the music,' which I think is total bull**** because people are just checking out music online and if they want it they buy the album, y'know? It's almost like listening to the radio but you can control the radio. Of course there are a couple of people that'll never buy an album anyway that will download and steal the music. I doubt that those people would've have bought an album anyways. Back in the early days, they probably would have recorded it to a tape or something. I don't really think it hurts anything. If anything, it just helps the music to become more popular."

It's a good point. Even Mastodon don't care it got leaked, they found out who leaked it, a british journalist he got sacked.

MASTODON's drummer, Br?nn Dailor, has told MTV.com that a certain English journalist is the one behind the online leak of the Atlanta metallers' forthcoming album, "Blood Mountain", last week.

"Hopefully one day, he'll introduce himself," Dailor joked about the journalist, who claimed he was one of the band's biggest fans. "[Our record label] traced it back to the guy who did it, and he got fired from wherever he was working. It's just so stupid. And it's such a sh---y copy. It sounds like sh--. I'm not concerned with record sales, because I think that if anyone's looking for it online to download it and listen to it, when it comes out [on September 12], they'll buy it anyways. They're fans.

"My problem is, I can equate it to when I was 11 years old," he continued, relaying a story about discovering his Christmas presents in his mother's closet a month before the holiday. "I wrapped it all back up, and then Christmas came, and I went downstairs, and I knew everything I was going to get. And that sucked. It totally ruined the whole thing. Up until then, I had never done that before and I was always really excited to wake up and open that first present. But that wasn't awesome, and I never did it again.

"When I was a kid, you had to wait for that IRON MAIDEN record," he recalled. "The whole thing was, this is the day it comes out, and you cannot have it before that day. But these days, with the Internet, everything just leaks. I urge people not to download it if they see it there, but I understand if they do. I want people to be excited for it and to hear it for the first time and hear it the way it was supposed to be heard."

But I will be getting the special edition Sacrament album.

His wife sings in Wyked Wisdom or something. They were one of the bands that played at like 9:00 Am on Ozzfest 2005. I think Soilwork was on that tour as well.

sup metalheads. Bought Sacrament, and I got sick of reading the lyrics in the inlay book (trying to scream the lyrics and i get spit all over the inlay) so I decided I'd take about 20 mins of my time and type up the lyrics from the book.

If anyone wants, download them here, I'm adding a small .zip file.

Hey guys. I am a big fan of power/death/melodic metal. Lately I've really gotten into a band called Agalloch. They are melodic epic "dark" metal from Oregon. VERY good band recommended for fans of Opeth or similar bands. If anyone wants I can send a sample of one of their songs just send me a PM. I just want to get their name out there.

Yeah to be honest i'm not a big fan of Iron Maiden but i thought i would give it a go. I only found 2 songs that i really liked. :rolleyes: Black Label Society album was good but it had way to many slow tunes, not enough heavy songs on :pinch:

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com AI companies often rely on readily available internet content to train their chatbots and provide users with instant answers. This method of AI training is fast and relatively inexpensive, but using a website’s content without permission or compensation is not something publishers like to see, and this is exactly why Microsoft and OpenAI are now being sued. As reported by Bloomberg, a group of publishers that collectively own nearly 400 newspapers has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft. The coalition argues that the two companies scraped their content to build AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Copilot without paying any compensation. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues that while AI products have generated billions of dollars in market value using publishers’ work, none of that value has been shared with the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking statutory damages and injunctive relief for alleged copyright infringement and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. “Defendants systematically and secretly crawled the Publishers’ websites—including content behind paywalls and other access restrictions—and copied the Publishers’ articles, stories, and other original works onto their own servers without authorization,” the complaint states. The publishers also described the AI boom as a “death knell for local journalism” if AI companies that scrape content for free are not held accountable. Former New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and his law firm, Platkin LLP, are representing the publishers. “Our models empower innovation, are trained on publicly available data, and are grounded in fair use,” OpenAI spokesperson Drew Pusateri told Bloomberg. This is not the first lawsuit involving the unauthorized use of publishers’ content by AI firms, but it is one of the largest coalitions ever formed against the free use of content by AI chatbots. In 2024, OpenAI and Microsoft also faced a similar lawsuit from eight newspapers that claimed AI products were benefiting from their content without permission.
