Couldn't get a ticket for tonight's Accept show so will go Monday.

Sitting on the couch drinking beer and listening to Tankard.
Had 2 mates who went, reports back were a) one of the tightest & best live guitar sounds ever; b) one of the oldest and baldest crowds ever and c) No "Midnight Mover" in the encore...?

I'm hoping to order the new albums by Decaying and Crazy Lixx (yeah, come at me bitches) this week and order one from Runemagick (start on their discography) and Hooded Menace.
Thread needs some more hair metal love Lone Wolf. Possibly the best song-for-song album of the genre I have bought in the last 10 years is Address the Nation by H.E.A.T. Its a little light in places and sometimes gets a bit close to AOR - but I cannot recomend anything to you that is better than this from a songwriting perspective. 10/10. (Note: their singer won the Swedish version of Australian Idol some years back so he has a voice).



Their new one "Tearing Down the Walls" is not bad either.

Got a record player handed down to me via Grandad.

First purchase......

Memoria Vetusta III


discogs.com is the go to place and ebay as well i assume for the best deals?
How is it?? I have read some really positive reviews...??

I have kind lost track a little of BAN. Loved Memoria Vetusta: 1 (simply awesome artwork) and then the Mort & Odinist kinda lost my intrest a bit so the 777 trilogy I never got.

Saw the setlist - mostly newer stuff. Losers & Winners gets a run at least. Not sure I can make it tonight.

Midnight Mover should be mandatory.

I'll check that band out. :)

The new Crazy Lixx album is a pretty solid album.

It's not too bad. :p Not as good as the other Memoria Vetusta albums (number 2 is my fav), but still decent. I can imagine a lot of people won't like the 777 trilogy, it's really different for BAN, but i love them for what they are, for me i really dig the industrial/ambient sound on Cosmosophy. And i agree about the artwork, too!

I liked the first one in 777 (I can't recall the names or song numberings). Reminded me more of typical BAN, the 2nd was so-so and the 3rd had it's moments but one of the darkest vibes of the 3.

Earlier tonight I chucked in Kataxu - Hunger of Elements for some synthy cheese, then kept it Polish and moved on to Behemoth - Demigod looking for some fun tunes to learn.

Might have gone a bit hard a bit early on the new At the Gates one. Its growing on me. The production is slick but perhaps not quite as bad as I made out...some good variety on this disc. Something for everyone perhaps. Certainly more mature than anything they had done before...

I'm struggling with the vokills and looking for memorable riffs. Not too shabby though and I'll give it some more spins.

Has anybody ordered from New Elite Standard before from the United States? I ordered a Disentomb CD from them since it's their label, but 25 days after I've ordered it, still no CD to be found. Thinking it's lost in the mail, which would make it 2 orders from the United States ending up lost this year. I should have gone directly via the band. :(

Never dealt with them but good mates with the band (broot death isn't my thing). If there is anything you want me to ask or pass on then shoot.
