My life will be oh so much closer to complete after that night.[/QUOTE] You lucky bastard. Nobody I like ever comes around here. I mean sure, I can go to the A7X concert, but I don't feel like spending $54 on a ticket to a concert for a band that I hardly ever listen to.

I have the same birthday as Steve Harris and Herman Li apparently, which is this Saturday. I wonder what Steve does for his birthday. Him and Eddie probably drive around in hover Ferrari's terrorizing east London.

Hey guys, just dropping by to see what Facepunch's opinion of Sylosis is. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBV5Fimk5ww&feature=related[/media] Personally the music itself is a bit hit-and-miss for me, but damn me if they can't write some catchy riffs. How about for you guys? That riff at 1:00. Mmmm....

Burn churches, fuck bitches Keep 150 kg of high explosives and 3000 rounds of ammunition in your home It's the black metal way

[QUOTE=Vedicardi;28522091]I didn't know that was how that worked[/QUOTE] What.

I had always thought when I said something it was just established as fact ):

[QUOTE=IAmAnooB;28513470]I do, I did it even more before. I should start listening to them again.[/QUOTE] Ah cool got any similar bands to recommend?

[QUOTE=Fiskepudding;28522849]Ah cool got any similar bands to recommend?[/QUOTE] Same kind of doom/Epic Doom. Solitude Aeturnus Memento Mori Candlemass Concept of God And here is some that is a bit different kind of doom: My Dying Bride, it's similar to some extent, you know those high pitches riffs and dubbeltramp(glömt vad det heter på engelska :v:). Reverend Bizzare(very slow doom) Draconian (gothic doom) Primordial (black/goth doom). Any way, there is some. If you want more, just ask. I like them all :3:.

I already listen to Draconian :3: I've tried listening to My Dying Bride before, but it didn't really appeal to me that much. Can you recommend an album from them?

My Dying Bride is so fucking depressing in a wrong way.

[QUOTE=mynames2long;28523337]I bought a candlemass album on a whim once, didn't like it at all The singer is horrible I think it's called mirror's something[/QUOTE] wut, they haven't even released an album with "mirror" in the name [editline]10th March 2011[/editline] are you sure you're not talking about Cathedral and their album The Ethereal Mirror?

[QUOTE=Kalkka;28523361]wut, they haven't even released an album with "mirror" in the name [editline]10th March 2011[/editline] are you sure you're not talking about Cathedral and their album The Ethereal Mirror?[/QUOTE] Wait no, it's called Ancient Dreams and has a very pretty cover The first song is called Mirror Mirror

[QUOTE=mynames2long;28523337] I bought a candlemass album on a whim once, didn't like it at all The singer is horrible I think it's called mirror's something[/QUOTE] their original singer was awesome though [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlQHJU4SD88[/media] but he just disappeared without a trace :(

[QUOTE=Fiskepudding;28523160]Thanks! I already listen to Draconian :3: I've tried listening to My Dying Bride before, but it didn't really appeal to me that much. Can you recommend an album from them?[/QUOTE] Like Gods of the Sun is a good album in my opinion. [QUOTE=Calkkuna;28523293]My Dying Bride is so fucking depressing in a wrong way.[/QUOTE] Well, their music is still pretty awesome.

Some of the riffs are sweet as hell, but overall the music is very much of a muchness. Don't think I've ever listened through the album in one sitting, too much low E chugging. I've seen them live 3 or 4 times :v:
