Pig Destroyer - Jupiter's Eye posted:

Doomed lovers in a free fall
Together till they crash to the ground
I long for my sweet disappearer
As this avalanche of night
Slides down
Black haired angel by the bonfire
With alien eyes divine they flicker a moment
In the flames then follow the smoke
Into the sky
It's like losing a limb
This agonizing goodbye
My dreams of her are violent
All swirled in red
Like the storm in Jupiter's eye

The one from last year was phenomenal



This was originally a serious (not necessarily good) idea, when the human-verification question about Black Sabbath stopped working after a few years. Old text Captchas were annoying, and this kept with the whole metal theme. The idea was to use letter from famous metal band logos to do the same thing as a Captcha. It was horrendously impractical to modify/code so a realistic alternative was used. We liked the idea enough (by which I mean I never stopped joking about it whenever there was spam) that some time last March, I assembled the set of legible-to-ridiculous images and HellBlazer coded the thing. First time an AFD joke actually involved coding! Worked out well because it had a good amount of entertainment value beyond being a gag, as well as being a good parody and joke about being anachronistic.

The band logos were: Immortal, Averse Sefira, Pyrexia, (Abominable) Putridity, (I Shalt) Become, Okketaehm, Black (Sabbath), Manilla (Road), Morrigan, (Pagan Altar), and Revenge.

Is he planning on using Ron Popeil's spray to cover up his bald spot.

Also, since Pig Destroyer is now up to five people, is Waldo going to do guest vocals.

Are there any good metal bands that don't utilize drums, aside from something like Sunn 0)))?

I'm guessing you're including drum machines too. Otherwise I would say Godflesh.

I'm going to see Abbath, but I have a merch dilemma. Has anyone seen the Decibel tour with him? What kind of merch was there?

Basically, I want the dumbest crap there is as a souvenir. No shirts, hoodies, posters, cds or vinyl ( already have ). I want like gym shorts (Wintersun!), a coffee mug, a shot glass, a pair of glasses, maybe even a trucker cap that will sit in the closet never to be worn etc.

I ask now because I'm only going to see Abbath, so I'm not planning on rolling in until later. I don't want to be there for the entire show if I don't have to be. I'd go at doors if there was some primo garbage to buy though, for fear of it selling out.

Everyone should be listening to the new Moonsorrow, it's so loving good, the best they've ever done I think and I say this as a perpetual fanboy of Suden Uni ( although I didn't really care for Voimasta... really, found it boring ). It's got everything you'd expect only more refined, and I like the tack they've taken with the folk parts making them very Wardruna-ey in terms of the chanting and instrumentation - more folk, less polka, more serious/less silly maybe.

Also saw Abbath which was almost everything I'd hoped for and more. They played basically the entire album along with classics from I/Immortal like: Warriors, One by One, Tyrants, Mount North, Solarfall (holy poo poo), etc. Abbath was doing his silly faces although I didn't get any ( "on his back, kicking his legs" ) like I think some other goon in UK saw. The merch he had was pretty disappointing though, no snowglobes or coffee mugs, but I did buy the big flags just because they're totally awesome even though I will never be allowed to actually hang them.

High on Fire was pretty good actually, kind of like if Motorhead was actually any good. I bought a tote bag.

Skeletonwitch was actually really good - it was kind of like melodeath/thrash, like if Witchery listened to too much Soilwork or something. They also had some sweet pint glasses.

I didn't catch Tribulation but they had a boring merch selection.

That is my report on the Decibel magazine tour. :unsmith:
