Xerath apparently broke up at some point but in their latest facebook post they linked to some sort of video-game/league of legends album that some of the guys from the band wrote with a poo poo ton of guest musicians.Xerath's FB post posted:The album features not only Mike and Rich on writing, drum and guitar duties but also bringing in household names like Jorn Lande (Jorn), Noora Louhimo (Battlebeast), Tommy Lee (Motley Crue), Danny Lohner (Nine Inch Nails) and the Macedonian Symphonic Orchestra among many, many other performers. It's...it's actually pretty loving good metal and I say this with extreme reservation at enjoying any music that is based on a video game that I don't play or like. Not even sure how it's related to the game at all actually and don't really care to find out. It's kind of like a lighter-weight Xerath, so that sort of "groove metal" but with guest vocalists that are more in the power metal wheelhouse instead of death. http://pentakill.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/ The "power" song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBq_KtuSIF0 The "almost-a-ballad": http://pentakill.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/#s/single-tear-of-the-goddess Edit: you can download both songs for free on the site/first URL linked TollTheHounds fucked around with this message at 18:29 on Jul 22, 2017 |

So here's a bit of the new Wintersun. Mixed feelings...as usual there are some really good ideas and moments here but they come inbetween bits that just don't need to be there. Also, the mixing seems a little strange, especially since this guy needs a quantum computer to make music. The opening is really good, and towards the end it gets really good. I just wish he had someone there to say 'yeah, this bit just kind of doesn't go anywhere, you could chop it properly. This part is good, maybe put it earlier and come back to it at the end'/ However, overall its still pretty strong and something they can be proud of. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pQvOyo1nfQ However, since they've also released every single isolated track, people are already remixing the songs. I'm listening to the same track as above, with the guitars brought closer to the front and its made quite a bit of difference. It'll be interesting to see what stuff people come up with. henpod fucked around with this message at 09:48 on Jul 24, 2017 |

Well, they are just random ones in the related videos, but this one for example sounds somewhat better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7a-u0BFTviQ I would expect to see a lot of mixes coming out soon. An orchestra+bass+drums one would be pretty funny.

I'm sure my familiarity of them is from Beavis and Butthead originally, but haven't spotted a clip. I'm quite relieved they left the old outfits at home though. Warren DeMartini can still shred like a boss. Vargatron posted:Did we just go back in time to 1988? You say this like it's a bad thing!

I've listened to it three times now, I like it. But the original mix is dogshit. These fan made mixes hopefully take off and a decent version comes along.

They had a lot of hits back in the day and I heard they could still bring it live, so glad you had a good time.

Love that song, really dig this cover by Seven Witches too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mo93IwvqK5E Overkill's Coverkill album is great too. I see a Motorhead cover compilation album is coming out, which is nice.

Happened on these guys. If you like your viking metal sound, they ain't half shabby. Singer reminds me of the dude from Bathory in a 'can't quite sing, but pushes really hard so it sounds good' kinda way. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zn2KwKvaG28 Video isn't worth watching though. henpod fucked around with this message at 15:57 on Jul 25, 2017 |

Ereb Altor is literally named after the world used in the Swedish version of D&D ( which had little to do with actual D&D). I.e. they are colossal nerds.

Master of Puppets is #1 to me, he fits the song perfectly. The way he starts the song with the crashes fits the riff really well, while I feel like other drummers would've started with the regular beat right away, and/or worked in a bunch of tom fills. Lars did it just right.

I like how despite Lars being the only drummer since their start, the answer to 'What are Metallicas best drum performances' would give wildly different results.
