I'd just like to briefly interrupt this thread to say that Joey DeMaio is the biggest asshole on the planet. Never in my life have I encountered a more self-important twat.

Wikipedia tells me that Joey DeMaio is a Manowar bassist. You interview him or something?

He's a diva, that's all I'll say right now. This guy is unbelievable. It's like setting up an interview with the Pope or something. Eric Adams and Ross the Boss, though, you won't meet two nicer guys. Salt of the earth. Haha, sorry, I had to vent.

Back to other stuff, this weekend I'm going to be listening to the new Amon Amarth and watching the new Cannibal Corpse dvd, both of which are supposed to be amazing. :)

Ross the Boss is a trooper.

Have you ever had to connect with Vito Bratta of White Lion? Dude's so touchy, just one time you scream out that you used to call him "Faggot" on the bus coming home from school while the band's trying to give an interview and he asks that you don't show up for the second day of the video shoot. <_<

Should have stayed home and drank beer instead of going to work today.

Now Playing: Brahms, Symphony No 2; Giulini - Wiener

Heh heh, he said "Wiener"...

I can well imagine that, but I guess you haven't 'encountered' Yngwie Malmsteen yet ;)

Metallica debuted "Cyanide" last night, and it sounds pretty good.

Though the song occasionally seems to lose the plot, it sounds promising. Seems like it could end up sounding like something that could have been made between Justice and Black, which would be hard to complain about. The presence of an "Unforgiven III" does make one a little wary, however.

Yeah, the album version should feel tighter. But I think it's more focused than, say, the new Trivium song, which is a complete mess.

Fucking FUCK! Genghis Tron are doing another UK tour and this time they are coming over to Ireland, but I will be in Scotland doing another year of study and will probably not have time to come over and see them (they aren't coming to Scotland). Damn them all to hell! In other news: I listened to Nachtmystium last night and the new album is probably going to be dueling it out with Genghis Tron for number 1. I intend to post on this album and my other favourites of the year in the near future (next week).

By the way, if you all can drag yourselves from ambient BM for a few minutes, get listening to the new Zozobra album. Comfortably better than the last one, so get it heard. No offence to the ambient BM set. RIYL: Iron Monkey, Greenmachine, Sabbath, Melvins.

Oh yeah, I posted that a couple of pages back. It is pretty good. As I said in a previous post, we have visitors at the moment so I havn't had a chance to crank things. Zozobra will be some of the stuff that will be getting listened to tomorrow.

Just got the Zozobra in the mail from HydraHead last week, anxious to dig into it. I have to say HydraHead is really on the ball with sending me advances, wish I could get as much attention from some other labels/reps.

Wish I could say the same. Grrr. Though I did get the new Jesu and Helms Alee, both of which are very good.

I really want to hear the new Gridlink, though.

Dude, it's Chang. The question shouldn't be whether it's good, but how close to AOTY. ;)
