About AC/DC, it's not my type to categorize... but what can you do when you hear their songs! The only thing that comes naturally is stomping your feet in a binary tempo (boom tsss boom tsss etc) with Phil Rudd... and even Angus Young! To me, AC/DC is a f**king great rock band!!! :p

ashes is a great disc. lamb of god is by far one of my top 3 bands now. :punk:

Supposedly their label is going to try and turn Lamb of God into the next Pantera.? Now, I like Lamb of God, but I think that's going a bit too far.

For what it's worth, As the Palaces Burn is my favorite LoG album.

I hope they don't turn into Pantera because they weren't all that good. ;))

Oh and AC/DC comes under as Blues Rock. Their not anywhere near one of my favourites but i guess everyone can consider them classic.

@ Dreamz, alot of Metal like Death Metal use unmelodic vocals because the riffs and drum beats are too fast and crazy for anything truely melodic. However some Death Metal bands manage to pull it off like Control Denied.

I like Children of Bodom, whens the new album due?\

ElHotSausage, your intelligent response amuses me. Your pure wit.

Hendrix' style was hard blues, not rock.he once said 'It's not hard to play blues, but it's hard to feel it' Anyway, the genre is unimportant.What counts is the music itself.Don't draw borders 'round music and don't try to fit it into cathegories - it's art ... it's free.If you don't get what am trying to say ... you're either too young or too dump to understand.

theres like 50 sub genres to rock or more, and blues rock is one of them, and i beleive i said jimi hendrixwas rock, so he fits under that. and ****, theres to manyy people on neowin who start bagging one another when someone says somthing they dont like, this is just gona turn into one big argument, i guess thats why theres no clubs on neowin, every here fights you should see other forums there like one big happy family.

I think that things can often be overly classified, but there are times where it's necessary. If you take a melodic death act like Nightrage or Scar Symmetry and lump it in with brutal/epic death metal band like Nile then there is a need for sub-categorization.

i got this godless endevour, not really what im into but people seem to like it, it gets good reveiws on websites.

Guys I been listening to Lamb of Gods Ashes of the Wake Its an amazingly Solid album I recommend!!, It almost Kicks your ass Non stop for the whole album. Very Very Solid one of my favs right now.

586234225[/snapback]

il get it, gtg now the school bell just went and it's finished

eh eh... Lamb of God... forgot to mention them in my previous post (like Mudvayne, or so many others), 100% pure american metal. For the comparison with Pantera, why not? Their music is quite intense too, and sufficiently technical, the guitar is melodic an powerful at the same time, and their singer screams like hell! I can see many things that they have (had? RIP Dimebag, you'll be missed forever...) in common on the musical plan.

Laid to rest kicks ass, and the rest of the Ashes of the Wake album too

Console yourself

You're better alone

Destroy yourself

See who gives a f**k

dude. if they had dime, they would own pantera. lamb of god is more of a band than pantera was (at least in the later years). they are a great band, they get along really well, and they have some of the sickest riff breakdowns i have heard in a while. long live lamb of god.

you gotta hear the new chimaira though. it's a fricking masterpiece.

It's really funny that you say they get along really well. I'm sure they do a majority of the time, but you gotta see the Killadelphia DVD. There's a scene where Randy Blythe and Mark Morton get into a fist fight. Randy loses.

The new Children of Bodom is due out in September and the have an EP coming out in August.

Might I add that Meshuggah's new album "Catch 33" kicks ass. It's great how most of the album is seamless. If you don't have or haven't heard it, go get it. I don't think you will be disappointed.

I think I'm going to be buying my Gigantour tickets today for this Friday. It'll be my second time seeing Megadeth, I hope they are as good as they were the first time.

they just released a remastered copy of their self titled 'burn the priest' album. for those that don't know, burn the priest turned into lamb of god.

And consequently they weren't allowed to perform in an arena owned by a Christian group. I think they got Obituary to replace them. :rolleyes:

Trash Metal, Death Metal, Black Metal, Industrial Metal, Nu Metal.

The best there is. (Y)

586224736[/snapback]

No nu metal please, real metal is the way :D

Just wanted to say Lamb of God are my fav band. Seeing them in London this december ( i know its way off ) but other metal genres i like are Heavy, Death, Black, Thrash and some Metalcore bands but more hardcore types.

Bands i like are Lamb of God, Black Label Society,Kataklysm, At The Gates, Children Of Bodom, Arch Enemy, Obituary, Dimmu Borgir, Soilwork, Nevermore, Slayer, As I Lay Dying, Throwdown, Opeth and more :rofl:

Good to see we have fans of metal in here and its nice to chat about it :yes: hopelly we wont get any body coming in saying " metal is crap " etc, i hate that!

I didn't like it as much as their earlier work.

The show was awesome, even with the weather delay. Dave sounded a little hoarse, but they still kicked our heads in.

The new Strapping Young Lad, Alien, is quite awesome.

I just got their DVD - For Those Aboot To Rock. It's excellent, and now I'm really kicking myself for not seeing them when they were in town.

I also bought Lamb of God's Killadelpha DVD, and Opeth's Lamentations. Both very solid DVDs, and well worth the money. Killadelphia shows a side of the band you wouldn't expect to see on a DVD, including a fist fight between the singer and guitarist. And the "making of" documentary included with Lamentations is an added bonus since it would have been worth the purchase even if it was only the concert footage :punk:

    • Half assed mess. It looks like they're reusing YouTube Music for charts. There is no way to navigate to movie trailers other than through the link provided in the blog. The Trending Trailers section says "Music Charts." Where is the global option for movie trailers?

    • For the first time in 19 years, Apple might not launch a MacBook Pro this year by Devesh Beri Apple appears to be rethinking its release strategy for its next-generation MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models. These highly anticipated laptops, which are set to feature the new M5 chipset, may not arrive until 2026. Originally scheduled for a 2025 launch, the company is now reportedly weighing its options and considering a delay. Sources familiar with the matter, who requested anonymity due to the confidential nature of these discussions, suggest that Apple is reassessing its product roadmap. Apple has launched MacBook Pro models consistently every single year from 2006 through 2024. This means that if Apple skips 2025, it would be the first time in 19 years that they don't launch a MacBook Pro. The reason for the probable delay is currently unknown. All in all, Apple is known for adjusting its launch timelines in response to various factors, including supply chain changes and internal strategy. The MacBook Pro and MacBook Air are two of the company's most popular laptops. Apple is also reportedly planning to unveil an even cheaper MacBook, which will run on the A18 Pro chip, the same chip used in the iPhone 16 Pro, that is expected to hit the market either later this year or early next year. The newest MacBook Pro with the M4 chip came out at the end of 2024, so people expected the M5 version to arrive later this year. Meanwhile, the MacBook Air with the M4 chip was released earlier this year, so the next Air model with the M5 chip was likely planned for next year. This means only the MacBook Pro is experiencing an unusual delay in its release schedule. However, next year is expected to be much more than just MacBooks with M5, as Apple is anticipated to release its foldable iPhone. The display size is reportedly seven inches and will utilize sixth-generation glass. Source: Bloomberg

    • Yeah, 40-series was a disappointment over 30, and this series is even more of a joke. 50-series is a lot like Intel 14th gen, if you already plan to buy new, you may as well get it over older options, but it offers next to no improvements over last gen. 30-series was the last good generational uplift. I'm sure someone will call me out if I finish this comment without at least mentioning the 10-series' god-tier level of generational performance, so there, I mentioned it.
