    I'm gonna go berserk 'cause
    I'm crazy and I'm hurt
    Head on my shoulders
    It's going berserk I hear the same old talk talk talk

    The same old lines
    Don't do me that today,
    yeah If you know what's good for you
    You'll get out of my way

    'Cause I'm crazy and I'm hurt
    Head on my shoulders

    I won't apologize

    For acting outta line
    You see the way I am
    You leave any time you can cause
    I'm crazy and I'm hurt

    Head on my shoulders
    Going berserk
    Crazy! Crazy! Crazy! Crazy!

    and

    It's not the truth I see
    It's just a mockery
    Don't need to waste my time
    You know I've really tried
    You take and never give
    Make it so hard to live
    I'm hangin' on a ledge
    Push me over the edge

    Don't do the things you do
    Don't have to oblige you
    Makin choices on my own
    Don't buy their trite or drone
    Grow up and be a man
    Drop dead right where you stand

I'm pretty up on post-punk stuff, both classic (Suicide and Joy Division are two of my favorite bands) and newer (The Soft Moon is a new favorite). That said, music threads other than this one don't seem to stick around much, so you could just talk about punk here, as I often do goth/industrial!
    That's true. I figured a punk thread might draw people who wouldn't otherwise stop by the metal thread, but this thread seems to be unique in its ability to outlive any other music-themed thread.

    I'm mainly into hardcore a la Youth of Today and Minor Threat (80s hardcore punk is easily my favourite music 'scene' of all time) but I'm also really into the goth and darkwave stuff birthed by post-punk like Clan of Xymox and This Ascension. Sadly, trying to find darkwave albums as great as Medusa, or Beauty and Bitterness, seems to be a matter of sifting through a whole lot of bland whiffle, so my efforts to dig deeper into the genre have been a bit stymied.

    At least I'll always have records featuring nothing but power chords and a guy yelling angrily about how much alcohol sucks to fall back on.

I saw some actually counting minutes until the show was over. I honestly believe it was the weak point of the concert.
    Huh, interesting. I was thinking of catching that tour almost entirely to see Kreator. I like Sabaton well enough as a live band, and have seen them on several occasions, but only as the supporting act to whoever I actually wanted to go see.

    I might on occasion. My brother plays in a melodic punk band and he points stuff out to me every now and then that I like.



    In sadder news, Glenn Tipton has Parkinsons, and it's progressed to the point where he can't play the more difficult Priest songs and has to retire from touring.

    That is indeed a great loss. I've always liked him best of the two original (that is, from the first album onward) guitar players. It seems he still did a lot on the album, since he was able to not talk about it during the recording. I hope he really will be able, like the band has said, to join for a few songs on their shows

    I found this out in the same breath that I found out that Priest is releasing a new album this month. It was quite a one-two punch right in the nostalgia.

    There's a new Therion out. It's... something. Some sort of rock opera triple album. Honestly I love Therion but I doubt I'll listen to this more than twice. Instead I'll be back at Vovin if anyone needs me.

    I really just view this as the 'alternative underground music' thread. We all have pretty diverse tastes and are total nerds.

    The Tipton thing is really crushing. He let me play guitar with him many moons ago and it was one of the great experiences of my life...

    I'm going to see Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphy's tonight and I am so hyped.

    No idea why they made DM headline though. Flogging Molly is better (and more well known, I think).
    They both have their own label/record companies so that shouldn't matter I think.

    Looks like Flogging Molly was around earlier too... weird.
    Also - the main dude from Flogging Molly was in Fastway! How about that!

    I like Flogging Molly more than Dropkick Murphys as well, though to be fair, I've never seen the latter live. The former I caught at an Irish fest in Ohio many years ago, I was mostly there to see the Old Blind Dogs, but FM put on a killer show! I love trad/Celtic folk, and have been playing with it from an electronic standpoint for ages. Putting a Scottish trad tune as a b-side to a lathe cut 7" I'm having made right now, in fact!
    https://soundcloud.com/doors-in-the-...-mix-4/s-O2HjQ

    Somehow I missed that both Die Form and In The Nursery had new releases last year. Die Form's was pretty standard fare for them, so really great if you like fetishy darkwave. ITN's, however, was almost a throwback to their early post-punk days, only done with the production skills they've honed over the years. It's amazing!

    More on the metal side, there's a new album from The Body out soon, and the track I've heard off it is amazing. My friends Abjection Ritual have a new one coming out on Malignant Records soon too, if you like death industrial.

    Most of the time, Europe has the greatest shows compared to overseas. However, now i'm jealous:
    Tyr + Orphaned Land + Ghost Ship Octavius
    Judas Priest + Saxon + Black Star Riders (last band not that important for me)

    Wait where is this happening? Black Star Riders is kind of cool - but i'd rather they had stayed Thin Lizzy

    I think it was right for them to change the name. Their music isn't that close to the old thin lizzy, and I think the namechange gave them more room to find their own style. I've seen them both as thin lizzy and black star riders, and I think the black star riders show was better

    Seems Tengger Cavalry is quitting. I guess the mainman was burned out by the legal battle between their old label and the new. Really sad to see this, even though I think their last album was weaker than the older ones, they were a fun addition to the metal genre

    Exmortus (opening act): Exmortus started right away playing Slave to the Sword and it made a really good opening to the entire night. After that, they did a good job as entertainers and an amazing job especially as guitarists. There was also a decent mosh pit behind me during the whole thing (I was almost at the very front) and everyone had a great time. My only complaint was that the bass drums drowned out the vocals. However, that didn't detract too much from the experience from me, as I never really liked them for their vocals.

    Kreator: After the opening act, Kreator came on. Although they did play well, they weren't that good at keeping the crowd engaged. For those who like moshing would have been disappointed, as their mosh pit quickly turned into four or five people running in circles. They played well, but I wasn't really a fan of Kreator to begin with, and it looked like most people weren't either, as most people were wearing Sabaton gear and talked mostly about Sabaton and other power metal bands out in the line. I saw some actually counting minutes until the show was over. I honestly believe it was the weak point of the concert.

    Sabaton: Sabaton started by quieting the excited crowd down by slowly playing (offstage) a half of a cover of In the Army Now by Status Quo before exciting the crowd again by running onstage to play Ghost Division. The songs were great, their performance as entertainers was fun to watch (and funny), and the entire crowd (including me) was participating and singing along. I thought almost everything about them was good, although as a Sabaton fan I might be biased. They were just all around rad and a fun end to the night. My only problem was at the beginning there was this weird mood whiplash (Blood of Bannockburn to Cliffs of Gallipoli to Lion of the North to The Final Solution), but maybe that's how it was meant to be, to show that the subjects of their songs weren't fun and games. A disclaimer in a sense.

    Anyways, that was my opinion of the Sabaton/Kreator concert (playing in Portland, OR as I write this). If anyone here is planning to go, I would advise you to get ready to have a blast.
    Went to the Chicago show last night. They had a different opening act (somebody called Cyra or something, never heard of them) that was pretty good. Kreator went on much too long, which seemed to make Sabaton a bit rushed in the first half of their set.

    The mosh pit got a bit out of hand, but the most notable thing was the floor. During the synchronized jumping for Primo Victoria, the floor flexd so much that the mic stands on stage were swinging "like drunken ballerinas". It was a little scary.

    I think I know who you are talking about with the opening act. cyHra it the band who was actually supposed to open here in Phoenix, but Exmortus performed in their place for some reason. I did some research about them before the concert, and apparently it's a group that contains former members of Annihilator, In Flames, and Rhapsody just to name a few bands.

    I saw them in '85 at a "Day on the Green", I remember that the Scorpions and Y&T also played, and that I wore a too small old AC/DC T-shirt (whom I'd seen at the Cow Palace in '82) and a cast on my arm, and I don't remember much else, except that Metallica seemed the highlight.

    My little brother had already seen them at the Kabuki and was a much bigger fan (I was more into the Dead Kennedy's at the time).

    Come back, thread :C

    Not much going on in my side of the world recently. Had a Cattle Decapitation gig recently, which was... interesting. Opening band was a local band called Insidious Reign, and they're actually pretty good.


    Anyway. Turns out Gygax has a new album out. it's great. It's proper old-school heavy metal, plus it's D&D themed. What's not to like.

    I see where Visigoth draw their inspiration from, however, they just don't do anything for me, even though I'm big on old school metal.
    Speaking of oldschool, I was given an album by Skullwinx at one of the shops at Hammer of Doom. It was a bonus for us spending so much money, or they didn't have change, or something like that. Anyway, that's an old school band much more to my liking. And a cool way to advertise them

    Yeah me too actually. This one isn't bad, but the first one just felt more fresh I guess.


    New Sojourner out. I'm hearing some solid Saor vibes. It's awesome.

    I've been waiting for this one for a while! Feytalist, I think this one might be for you too. I'm opening for them in a couple weeks!

    Well that made me physically uncomfortable. I like it Been a while since I heard some new industrial.


    New Between the Buried and Me is out. All my friends rave about it, but I've never been able to get into them. I just really dislike the vocals. Doubt this one will change my mind, from what I've heard about it.

    Just bought my ticket to see Sleep and SubRosa on Tuesday. Stoked!

    Also saw Iced Earth and Sanctuary about a month back. Iced Earth was tight as hell, and although no one can replace Warrel Dane in my heart I have to admit that the guy singing for him did a damn fine job with Battle Angels and Future Tense.

    Some friends of mine hit Sleep/SubRosa in Cleveland last night, and we're appropriately crushed. I had to bail, being a little tapped out on concert cash. I am however seeing Bad Religion, I don't know how I've managed to not see them before.

    It's at a beer fest, so let's see if my drunk, out of shape 40 year old self will be smart enough will be smart enough to keep out of the pit.

    Haven't really been wowed by Ghost's new tracks yet, but I'll be checking out the new album anyway. They're always good for a laugh (and I mean that in a good way).


    So new Kamelot is out. It's very... Kamelot. Not really much more to say about that.

    New Messa is also out. Honestly don't know what even to call them (kinda jazzy doom?), but it's really really good.
