One thing I really hate is those core bands that scream full on and then change it up into such a glammy, horrible, nasally chorus. Shits me to tears.

Agree, but exception: Fear Factory, although wouldn't call Burton C. Bell nasally.

I agree but also I exclusively listened to this kind of music when I was 14 so it still has value to me.

I don't put FF or Machine Head in this category.

Doesn't get much more primal than this.

Not only one of the best death metal songs ever written, but metal in general IMO.

Nile still keep that groove element for a Death metal band... George Kollias is a beast.

Can't believe I just spend nearly 9 minutes watching this:



Well, actually I can. That's even worse.

Yep and tuning to drop A doesn't hurt their heaviness either!

IMO, Eddie has never written a solo that comes close to You Shook Me All Night Long, which is up their with Comfortably Numb and Stairway to Heaven, and there are at least another half dozen AC/DC songs that have killer, memorable solos that could stand on their own.

Eddie's solos became non events. There were some memorable ones earlier like Running with the Devil, On Fire but he was expected to pull the big guns out always and I think it pissed him off. He's always been unconventional. Listen to 316, that's what he was more comfortable playing. Hot for Teacher what I think of for him.

Who here saw them about 7/8 years ago at the Unibar? They crushed.

It's true though. You can't understand the shit they say more than half the time, but I still love it for some reason.

That's one of the reasons Brujeria formed. Growling had become so guttural & brutal, why not do it in Portugese?

*puts hand up*

Amazingly tight live band. The samples they used in some songs would be timed to perfection, just like the albums.

Once upon a time I could play that. Not perfect, but good enough.

Unfortunately, playing a guitar is not like riding a bike, and ever since I moved to performing vocals more than playing guitar, a lot has been lost.

Back on frontmen, criminal this band never became huge. Fighting against a tide of shit late nineties punk and metal.
Ladies & Gentlemen, Casey Chaos & the mighty Amen

Amen brother. There was a time years ago when I could do Holy Wars, most of the KH stuff, Dime.
Now I rip feedback most the time!!

For the record Whole lotta Rosie is easily Angus' best solo.
