the most: I **** bricks when I saw the singer band.. i've heard of.

Holy ****. Did not expect that. Good submission!

I have found myself listening to a TON of Amon Amarth lately. I've even changed my Droid X's ringtone to a song from their last album. I think they have one coming out soon.

Here's my ringtone -

The new album from Mercenary is currently streamable for this week on a german metal site if anyone in this thread happens to like them.

While it's not 'bad', i'm having a hard time liking it as a mercenary album myself cause it pretty much sounds nothing at all like any previous album. In some parts of some songs i almost find myself thinking metalcore for a moment. Unless the album grows on me after more time with it, i'm thinking the big line up change(basically half the band left, including lead vocals) in 2009 just may be the worst thing to have happened to them.

Damn, I love some old school Pantera. Dimebag was the MAN.

I hope it's okay to hop in. :D Anyway, here's to all who thinks Dimebag is still kick ass at his rest.

Of course it is! And I agree 100%, Dimebag was one of the greatest metal guitarists ever. He is surely missed.

MAYHEM FEST TICKETS ORDERED!!! Can't wait! Last year was amazing, not sure this year's band lineup looks quite as good, but it should still be great.

So, for the hell of it I made a Last.fm group for us. I saw the Spotify topic, but not everyone has access to Spotify yet. I figured song tracking on Last.fm would be cool so we could see what the most popular songs are and find new songs. Feel free to join: http://last.fm/group/Neowin+Metal+Club

Animals as Leaders are amazing. I'm not sure if djent belongs here (of it they belong to djent for that matter), but still, pretty amazing:

sick post man, that's like pure technique right there, definitely hard to classify, the lack of vocals are why I wouldn't class it as extreme metal... even though the guitars are a bit deep/strong for just the generic metal... it's in the middle of metal and extreme (based on the neowin threads.. I know metal is a full genre..)

    • AMD releases hotfix for driver install issues on Windows 10 PCs

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      AMD releases hotfix for driver install issues on Windows 10 PCs by Taras Buria Earlier this week, AMD released an important graphics driver update. Version 26.6.2 brought AMD FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen Radeon lineup, the RX 7000 series, giving users better upscaling tech that was previously locked to the newest GPUs. However, the driver turned out to be a little buggy, with users reporting installation issues on systems still running Windows 10. AMD quickly acknowledged the bug and today released a hotfix to resolve the problem. The AMD 26.6.3 Hotfix update is now available for download from the official website. Given that it is a hotfix release, it has only one change in its release notes: AMD announced the update on its official X account and added that a WHQL driver update with the necessary fixes would be released next week. Meanwhile, users can apply the hotfix or roll back to the previous driver using the official AMD Cleanup Utility. You can download AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.3 Hotfix Preview Driver from the official website here. It is compatible with all currently supported graphics cards and 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • Windows 11 is now five years old

      By Nick H. · Posted

      With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11! I guess we all need a good laugh now and again...
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026 deal sees Samsung Odyssey 49" 240Hz QD-OLED monitor at lowest price

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Amazon Prime Day 2026 deal sees Samsung Odyssey 49" 240Hz QD-OLED monitor at lowest price by Sayan Sen Earlier today we covered a very good deal on JBL's BAR 800 Dolby Atmos soundbar system as the unit is available for just $600 as part of Amazon Prime Day 2026 deals. That's not all though as there are many more discounts to choose from. If you are looking for a high-end monitor, Samsung's 49 inch G9 QD-OLED gaming monitor is a solid deal too as it's currently just $855 (purchase link under the specs table down below). It is a super-ultrawide (32:9) 1440p curved gaming monitor and as such should offer a very immersive experience. The G93SC is a 49-inch QD-OLED (Quantum Dot OLED) screen and that means it should have excellent contrast as well as color reproduction. Brightness is a bit lacking though so if you are looking to set it up in a relatively bright room, you may be better off with something else. Speaking of external light and brightness, the major difference on the G93SC vs the newer G93SD is that the latter comes with Samsung's "Glare Free" technology to reduce glare while the C model packs a glossy finish. The technical specifications of the Samsung G93SC are given in the table below: Specification Value Panel Type OLED Screen Shape Curved Screen Curvature 1800R Resolution DQHD (5120 × 1440) Aspect Ratio 32:9 Brightness (Typical) 250 cd/m² Brightness (Minimum) 200 cd/m² Contrast Ratio 1,000,000:1 HDR Support VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 HDR10+ HDR10+ Gaming Response Time 0.03 ms (GTG) Refresh Rate Up to 240 Hz Viewing Angle 178° Horizontal / 178° Vertical Color Support 1 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% DCI-P3 (CIE1976) Adaptive Sync FreeSync Premium Pro / G-SYNC Compatible DisplayPort 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 HDMI 1 × HDMI 2.1 Micro HDMI 1 × Micro HDMI 2.1 USB Hub 3 × USB 3.0 Speakers Built-in Speaker Output 5W × 2 Channels Operating Temperature 10°C – 40°C Operating Humidity 10–80% (Non-condensing) Stand Type Height Adjustable Stand (HAS) Height Adjustment 120.0 ± 5.0 mm Tilt -2° (±2°) to 15° (±2°) Wall Mount 100 × 100 mm (VESA) Included HDMI Cable HDMI-to-Micro HDMI Cable Included DisplayPort Cable Yes Get it at the link below: Samsung 49" Odyssey G93SC Series Curved Gaming Monitor, QD-OLED: $854.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US with Prime) Prime subscription can be cancelled within three business days at no cost.

    • Windows 11 is now five years old

      Actually Windows 11 is the GUI from Windows 10 X slapped onto Windows 10. Hence the many performance issues and initial limitations of the UI, like all the restrictions on the task bar placement and features. You could not even right click on the Taskbar and bring up task manager when it first shipped. Windows 10X was truly a new OS from the ground up. Basically a lightweight OS that ran containers for various app types. Win32 got its own container. Performance was not good and OEM’s pushed back on it, but wanted a new OS to push Pc sales. Hence Windows 11. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10X
