Dudes, bad year for Aus Metal?







Not to mention Northlane, Parkway style bands getting mainstream respect. It's been a good year for Metal.

Is it about the so-called bushrangers? I read a bit about them in the book I'm reading on the history of Australia.
Anyway - thanks for the suggestion, I've added it to my to-watch list

It's about three brothers/bushrangers after their gang is disbanded.

Two are caught by the police and then offered freedom if they can help find and kill the eldest, most dangerous brother who is still on the loose.

Not a true story but a good one anyways.

Great movie

Spoiler

The ending was just a bit over the top I thought but it was still great overall

And this was just one gig!

I reckon my ticket to this was about $25. I'd do that everyday before I paid a stupid amount to watch lipsyncing disposable garbage.

I wish I could see a COLOSSVS x CHVRCHES gig

 

[edgie]

I know 2 local metal bands that have been pretty successful, toured with the likes of Megadeth, Iced Earth, Blind Guardian, and receive next to no publicity in Aus.

 

[Dylan8]

Music that isn't X-Factor winners getting publicity in Aus

LaaaaawwwwwwwL

At what age did you grow out of metal and why was it 14?

I grew into metal at 30.

Missed all that horrid hair shit but metal is the most misunderstood and maligned genre of music from people that should know better that has ever existed.

Well except for this little beauty.

Thanks facebook memories.

I like how James Blunt apologises for his music. Guy has a sense of humour.

Spot on.

Can fight too, verbally and physically.

But that ****ing music.

Pedant Corner:

I just heard a radio news report where the reporter said "Being caught using a mobile phone while driving carries with it a fine of $400 and the loss of 3 demerit points..."

You don't lose demerit points. You can lose merit points, you can gain demerit points, but you don't lose them.

You don't lose demerit points. You can lose merit points, you can gain demerit points, but you don't lose them.

Demerit points are incurred, accrued and accumulated. You only lose demerit points three years after the date of the offence in which they were incurred.

14 is a strange age to stop being a rad dude.

Therefore, use mobile while driving, aquire licence forever.
