Shpongle 59 Report post Posted May 24, 2016 Tool and Porcupine tree are both great great bands! Can't wait for the release of the new Tool album (whenever that may be) and hopefully get to see em live in London sometime. Btw also rumours of a Rage Against The Machine comeback, or some form of spin-off band, maybe with new front man. - http://www.metalinjection.net/latest-news/rumors/rage-against-the-machine-begin-teasing-something-major-is-it-another-reunion Saw this the other day, a new supergroup by the looks of it, Tom Morello, Tim Commerford, Brad Wilk, Chuck D, & B-Real, i would definitely check this out Here's a novelty kind-of-metal thing, just for the sake of it : That reminded of this for some reason, even in an acoustic guitar this song sounds heavy :rock: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtL7nO4NNHY Like this post if you used to listen to heavy/death/sympho/melodic/black/trash metal. or still do!!! Still a metal fan till this day, even though i don't listen to it as much as i did, i still follow some bands, it depends on my mood really...Metallica was the band that got me into metal, still love them till this day, saw them live 5 times, Marilyn Manson was one of my main bands back in the day as well, all i did was wear Manson shirts during a time in my life lol still listen to it, his latest album was amazing by the way. Other bands i still listen to, Deftones, System of a Down, Marilyn Manson, Machine Head, Rammstein, Soulfly(old albums), KoRn, Slipknot, Stone Sour, Rage Against the Machine..... 1 yiannis reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yiannis 201 Report post Posted May 24, 2016 Thank you Shpongle, I wasn't aware of the acoustic RiB version; well played and indeed heavy. I was talking to someone online a few months ago and although the original reason was electronic music we ended up talking metal. It always seems to work out that way Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shpongle 59 Report post Posted May 24, 2016 Lol, metal is a great genre, specially for people like me or older that were born in the 80s, we had so many great rock/metal bands growing up that it's hard not be a fan of the genre, i honestly don't listen to many "new" metal bands, they all sound pretty much the same to me, i get bored easily...

Tanya 25 Report post Posted May 24, 2016 oh yeah, Rage against the machine and Korn are great On the other hand, me and my friends used to make fun of corpse paint and black metal shrieking too back in the day, Any photos of corpse paint on you available??? ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yiannis 201 Report post Posted May 24, 2016 Any photos of corpse paint on you available??? ) I never put on corpse paint, but I'm sure someone, somewhere has pictures of my best friend at the time and myself painted as Ace Frehley and Gene Simmons of Kiss respectively for the Greek equivalent of Halloween.

I've only listened to them once each, they sounded good but I can't say I loved them. It'll be easier to form an opinion once we've got the whole double set in our hands. I did like their previous one quite a bit, I must admit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think this will top Death Magnetic, but we'll have to wait and see...less than a month now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yiannis 201 Report post Posted November 24, 2016 Didn't get a chance to listen to the album yet unfortunately My faves are Moth into Flame, Atlas Rise, Halo on Fire and Spit out the Bone but the whole first disc is very good. The second one less so imo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
