Needs more Bruce


i like this....although i dunno, i like the guitar part for the riff thingy - but the problem is wasted years has a bit of a cheesy chorus and in acoustic style it just sounds a bit gay.......i like it, but i kinda wish he'd picked a different song :O

J: i always think of 'wasted time' by skid row, i get the names confused.
it's alright, his vocals never seem to change, just kinda doesnt get anywhere :O
 
M: yeah that, seems a bit flat :O
 
J: needs some ooomph :)
 
M: needs to be sung by bruce :D
 
J: nuff said :D
 


Back to black




J: have you pre-ordered this?

M: i won't lie -
>I.C.S. VORTEX - "Don't Tread On Me"
* BORKNAGAR - "My Friend Of Misery"
am actually looking forward to hearing those, altho not sure they'll work......
the others, fuck it. altho may be interesting to see how finntroll work god that failed....
shame it's black album, i don't like most them songs :(

J: it sucks that the last two metallica ones of these metal hammer have put together have been for the two albums i dont give a shit about :/
 
M: yeah they should do thrash bands doing kill em all or something - i guess they're interesting enough projects, to see how bands work on other stuff, especially popular stuff - but i'm just not keen on the black album :/ or most of the artists that take part :/
   
J: or they should do st anger and try and make it better :)

 
M: that would actually be a cool feature :)
 
J: yeah, open it up for fans to do it :)
 
M: that would be really cool :D come on guys - lets re-record it and show them what people can actually do who have spirit and passion for the music :D
 
J: as if they'll admit to it being a duff album tho :)
 
M: yeah metallica won't, but everyone else does :) the music press should grow some balls and organise this :D
 
J: yeah ;O

I can't see, I can't see....





M: wow they are starting to merge a bit :O






Just like the old days





M: 1. first comment :)
2. gary's wearing some lame big 4 giant plectrum lanyard - you ain't in the big 4 gary! ;D
 
J: yeah, lame headline XD
gary was, for a bit :D
 
M: not anymore tho :) he's with exodus, allowing poor decisions to be made D: 
 
J: the first being when they let paul baloff go :)
 
M: there was bad feeling involved tho :O 
 
J: i dont see anything wrong with being drunk, forgetting words and inciting violence on non-metal believers :D
 
M: nah not for a fucking thrash band :) gary must have enjoyed his time with slayer, srs business these days ;) 
 
J: that was it, i thought he was in anthrax, but that was andreas :D
would have been awesome if james broke his wrist again, make it PROPER like the old days ;)
 
M: yeah i got confused with them two doing other stuff :)
>would have been awesome if james broke his wrist again, make it PROPER like the old days ;)
bet he don't do any skateboarding now though XD
 
J: i forgot jeff was "ill" (recovering from drug use) ;D
i cant even imagine james skateboarding then, let alone now :) i'm sure it was something to do with them pushead design skateboards, at least i hope it was :)
 
M: i always think of it as that :) 
 
J: trying 'em out for jokes, break wrist XD
 
M: trying them out to advertise for them ;) making money ;) 
 
 J:  
 
 
M: weird thing with james is, even when he was young, he still kinda looked old :) 
 
J: it's them combats he has on doing that ;D
 
 

bathory );



 J: dunno if it's one of the albums you like, but );

M: fuck yeah ); its the one i have the t-shirt of <3

J: oh :)
yeah, wicked album :)
i cant remember the one we played round here you had that time, i liked it, but unsure what one it was:)

 M: hammerheart i think :) 

J: i'll check it out :O

M: bathory is fucking cool - one of the few bands (or artists, i suppose) that live up to the hype! 



Quorthon also fits right into the hot-when-he-was-young category ♥ 

Most bands that people bang on and on about just never live up to your expectations. You just can't see why everyone thinks they're SO FUCKING AWESOME, MAN!!! Whilst you can appreciate that they're not bad, you still can't really grasp how someone could think they're the best thing ever. It's happened a few times for me and I'm sure it's happened to everyone at some point.

Bathory however, is a different kettle of fish. People don't even bang on about the records so much - it's more that that fucking goat is plastered from wall to wall of the internet and maybe it doesn't bother anyone else, but I have to say it puts me right off. Forget about that though, because Bathory's legacy should be so much more than that goat.

Bonded by blood?




XD

J: not with t-bone tho, he dont do albums :)

M: tired of music, just wants to dj :) 
tbh i don't think nikki has it in him - he's not a musician and never was - yeah he's better than when he started out but musicially he ain't got anything in him

J: nikki's a good songwriter, maybe he should just write songs and manufacture sleaze bands like stevie does :)

M: i guess in the sleaze/glam world he does fine - tbh he should just stick with what he's doing - being a whiny bitch and letting everyone copy his style :)

J: yeah, he's doing fine as is :) it's not like motley dont make money :)

M: or as i said, everyone seems to want to look like him now, he should just be pleased he ain't vince, mick or tommy XD nikki has a decent life and career, he should count his blessings :)

J: that pic of him on that site i sent you looks like dave from morbid angel so much :)

M: they're becoming the same person, i swear :O

J: they so are XD

...bring a tear to your eye :(




I was away at Bloodstock over the weekend, celebrating my birthday, which was on the 12th. It was pretty mad to get a text from J that morning saying that Jani Lane had died :(

I won't say I didn't love taking the piss out of Jani and Warrant, because it was awesome - I love taking the piss out of stuff, but I only ever do it out of love, not spite. I'm really fucking sad he died - Jani, you were only 47. Gone too soon.



p.s. It's also pretty sad that this and the last post were about awesome people dying. I'll work on that (well, I can't stop people dying, but I can at least talk about other stuff).
