@Wolfcraft- Thanks for the complement. I don't know about 'awesome' taste, but I don't exactly like most of the radio crap. The better bands seem to require some looking around to find.
Was listening to Brian Regan's I walked on the Moon, but now it's Bad to the Bone by George Thorogood. Brian Regan by the way, is a great comedian. He's living proof you don't need excessive profanity and rude themes to get a good laugh. His latest work "The Epitome of Hyperbole" is pretty good.
Doesnt expecting the unexpected make the unexpected expected and therefore mean youre expecting the expected which was the unexpected until you expected it?

NP guys. and weirdname, if you guys knew me better as my close friends do youd be laughing..I am constantly preaching about the "crap" on the "popular radio". Im an old school rock and metalhead. Some new bands I like, but as a whole I think most of waht has and probably will be played on radio top 40 is illiterate and plastic. I refuse to be labeled, I listen to literally everything from White Zombie and Cradle of Filth to Mozart and Paganini. Hell the only bands I dont like are Steely Dan and...well..maybe just Steely Dan LOL
Hey Zoso! Right on! I live in NWI but have traveled there a coupla times. I always wanted to be a DJ growing up, let ppl talk me out of it sadly. S'ok, now Im just another nerdy aspiring IT guy with a chip on his shoulder lol.
Listening to: Celtic Woman ....yeah..I said it. Watching a special on PBS, c'mon theyre HOT! Me likes the chubby one! LMAO

I'm with ya on the new stuff wolfcraft 99% of it i can't relate to it just doesn't have the emotion/feeling/soul the older bands do and to me most of it sounds the same. alot of people i know think i come across arrogant/opinionated about music but its hard not to be with the knowledge i have about the subject. but the bottom line people like what they like.I try to set them straight lol.

hey 7thsinger! I'm about 40 minutes shy of Chicago in Merrillville In. near Crown Point. Im waiting fo reviews on Death magnetic myself. After "Reload" they lost me. I even liked Load..but after that I just saw a lack of inspiration both lyrically and musically. I'm hoping theyve cranked one out like the old glory days.
Today been listening to:
Saigon Kick
heres a great cover of Space Oddity (Bowie)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2J209-LNK6g
and Hostile Youth
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orOiUecSbPY
These guys were one of most SEVERELY underrated bands of the 80s and 90s. Very Sad. S'ok...the best thing you can do to honor the bands you love that never got enough airplay, or a chance..is to KEEP PLAYING, PLAY THEM LOUD, and SPREAD THEIR NAME ;)

@Wolcraft
I work in Valpo, not to far at all from you. And Hostile Youth is a good pick. Good band, shame they didn't go farther.
Metallica is done. Their new album is better than St. Anger, but not by a whole lot IMO.
@Zoso, another good DT song buddy.

Thats so kool 7thsinger! Proves its a small world!!!! I drove through Valpo today as my sister lives out there.
Dont know if youve ever eaten there, but until 2 years ago she owned Dawns Diner out there near the main square until she decided she wanted to give up the business.
6 degrees of separation works huh guys? Been visiting this site for 3 years and finally decided to join recently..who knew Id meet people that close and in my same state?? TOO KOOL!
Well, today I havent listened to much music.. Im a fanatic of Coast to Coast AM and listen to it religiously, even though I dont care for the host as much as I did the original Art Bell. So I spen time catching up on this weeks shows.
However, when I woke up I did take a looksy to see what new videos we had on ON DEMAND and they added two veterans.
Lizzy Borden
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4XI76ooNAE
new album great new song!!!! I missed this somehow.
and
Whitesnake
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qp_uV83bwuQ
Lay Down Your Love OMG sounds EXCELLENT.
Honestly Coverdale looks like total and complete shite' but his vocals havent changed AT ALL. I think Im going to sample some more to make sure and may go to Best Buy and purchase these 2 lps.
Thinking this new Whitsnake may even be a vinyl purchase..it has "that sound" y'know? If youre a HUGE fan the st lp, youll love it!!!
OK, ranted long enough..thanks for listening to my dribble..glad you guys are here as my wife is sick of hearing my "new finds" all the time LMAO

Benevolence -- V-Mob
They're a small time band with a sound quite like Slipknot... Their big claim to internet fame is their song 'Feel No Shame' which is usually missmarked as being by Slipknot and Korn...
On a side note: Can't really find anything about by guys online otherwise. Nothing on any of the usual networks. The few songs I do have sound like there about 32kbp/s... lol

Metallica - That Was Just Your Life, from the awesome new Death Magnetic album
This album definitely sounds like some of their first albums, makes me feel a little old to realise those albums are like 20years old now!!. Anyways, a fantastic album, am really pleased it sounds like the old stuff, brings back great memories, just a shame it was mixed so poorly; just been reading about it on the internet, there's a lot of people out there moaning about the mixing, really off-putting using headphones. Ah well, music like this is supposed to be played on big speakers anyway :P

@Creaky
While i was certainly more pleased with Death Magnetic than i was with that drivel of an album St. Anger, i still miss the old stuff. The new one is alright, but very poor mixing as you mentioned. They're just lacking some of the melodies and intricate guitar stuff that made them gods way back when. At least in my opinion anyway.

I couldn't get into St. Anger (could anyone ? LOL). I don't recognise some of the band names you guys have been posting lately, am just glad to have an album that reminds me of my 'youf' :)
edit- don't you just love google, it seems the Death Magnetic tracks off the game Guitar Hero 3 were mixed much much better apparently and are out there. Maybe they'll end up in the shops somewhere :)

Death Magnetic was a great sigh of relief after St Anger... Lets hope they have a few more in them like this... I got tickets to the show in Boston. Was going to StubHub GA tickets for the show in Jersey but my buddy backed out cuz he's an idiot...
Listening to: 'Through The Eyes Of God' -- Fear My Thoughts
Really good album, more of a Metal sound than their old Black Metal sound. Look around for it, well worth it...

Southern Culture on the Skids... awesome band!! Too bad mainstream radio didnt give them a chance either, oh well..thank Gods times have changed now and even if its not getting airplay its out there somewhere
WITHIN TEMPTATION~ BLACK SYMPHONY
Oh My God..thats all I can say. Got the DVD, and Im in awe. Best shot DVD Ive seen concert wise in a long while and it's..well..Im at a loss for words. If youre a fan of this band its a must have. If youre in love and giving tongue to symphonic metal, or enjoy progressive "thinking mans" rock (ie: savatage, Dream Theater,Symphony X) then check them out. They play live with The Metropole Orchestra.
Heres a link to "What Have You Done"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEgXDhiayz4
and "Our Solemn Hour"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7CSr82D0Do
two of my faves, but seriously..the vids are kool but this live lp and dvd rock toooo hard!
