Instead of wearing terrible earplugs removing all highs and mids out of a gig you could also choose to stand a bit further away from the speakers. I'm not the typical guy going lol gently caress plugs let's destroy everything including my ears but I have yet to hear music not getting poo poo through whatever type of plugs I've tried.

Standing "further" from the speaker will still give you hearing damage

Most metal venues are small enough and loud enough that it really doesn't matter where you stand

If a big venue has been set up properly sound-wise, the level should be about equal no matter where you are.

Vulture Culture posted:Not so much the case in a big city like New York, where a touring metal act usually ends up in a 1,000-capacity venue like Irving Plaza or Webster Hall. But I remember there being a huge difference in listenability between the front and rear ends of the venue even way back at L'amour in Brooklyn. In Detroit there's Harpo's which used to be a pretty big deal when it was a opera hall and now it's just a dingy place that has something like a 2000 person capacity and it's too loud in every corner of the place. Still owns, though, although the guy who bought it is trying to "clean it up".

BDM are a band that I respect for working their asses off while not taking themselves super seriously, and I do think they've developed a sound more distinctive than just ripping off At the Gates, but the finished product just isn't all that great. Also Brian Eschbach went to my high school so that's always been a neat connection I guess.

quote:Today in a shocking statement, Italian symphonic death metal masters Fleshgod Apocalypse have noted that vocalist Tommaso Riccardi abruptly left the band a month ago due to "personal reasons." It seems there might have been trouble brewing for a while, because the band all agreed it was time to move on. Shame...he is an amazing drummer and I would prefer him to stay there. henpod fucked around with this message at 09:52 on Oct 11, 2017 |

Just caught up on the last bunch of pages, this is one of the better songs posted for me. Your joke idea is good, that should've been the video. I'm intending to see somebody even older soon by the way, Udo Dirkschneider! I've been enjoying a couple books, Lemmy's autobiography White Line Fever and another Lemmy biography called Lemmy, by Mick Wall. Really good reads, also read some of another Motorhead book at the store. Any other good rock books or biographies? Or could be any music genre, just being metal or offbeat in some way makes for interesting stories.

I'm reading Choosing Death, it's pretty entertaining, not too dense (unlike say, Patterson's Black Metal, which is also good but dense reading) and shortish.

Sound of the Beast is a pretty good and if I remember correctly, easy read about metal in general. Patterson's Black Metal is really good, but it is super dense reading. I've read it twice and it's much faster on the second read.

Sound of the Beast is really good as an introduction to the genre but it's not super in depth. It also has some dumb mistakes like calling early Metallica "power metal" and actual power metal "legacy metal"

Reading Sound of the Beast in 9th grade introduced me to a lot of stuff beyond the Metallica and Maiden I was listening to at the time. It's good.

I forgot about the Immolation album released earlier this year. It’s really good catching up with it again. Obviously a grower that I got distracted away from through the summer.
