I can't seem to get into the new metal. I'll hear some stuff I like on the guitar but I can't get passed the scream singing.
No, not live. Apparently they (Tate) is in the process of developing the screanplay for it. They did show a ~10min video/movie trailer for O:MII that had tracks already recorded. [url="http://www.queensryche.com/news/index.html"]Here[/url] are some intersting and informative reviews.Did they play anything from mindcrime 2?
Yeah that's all I play, really. The current lineup:I almost bought one of thosde about a month ago. Sounds like you like the 7 string guitars.
How do you like the emgs?Ibanez RG1077XL w/Seymour Duncans
Ibanez RG7620 w/EMG707's
Dean EvoSpecial7 w/DiMarzio's (from the 1077XL)
Unreal. They're very bright, but they push my preamp into realms of gain that I never thought possible. I play though a Mesa/Boogie Quad Pre, and the with all three guitars the sound is great, but the EMG's really are spectacular.How do you like the emgs?
I have a fender HM strat, Kramer pacer, Kramer Condor, and a wasburn N2. I play threw a ada mp-1 preamp.Unreal.

Im trying to get a custom mahogany body made for the RG7620 to balance out the tone. Id love to get my hands on a J-Custom 7 but that's not happening for a while
What do you play VG?
Red Lobster, Mmmm!I might give that a try when I go back to school. Busy managing a Red Lobster at the moment, getting pounded with top 40 hits from 1993 10 hours a day Ugh. When I get in the car to go home and crank my system its a sweet release.

Oh this is about unique music ...then that changes everything. I have not heard anything unique in a longtime ...lmao . But I will have to listen to mudvayne a little more to see what you are sayingMudvayne isn't quite "new wave of american metal" they are something totally different and unique (this is NOT a put down of any other bands in this thread, it is my opinion), definitely have their metal influences though.

Mudvayne is one of my favorite bands, definately. I can listen to their tracks and get lost in them. 'LD50' was good, but 'the End of All Things to Come' was on a completely different level, just awesome.Mudvayne isn't quite "new wave of american metal" they are something totally different and unique (this is NOT a put down of any other bands in this thread, it is my opinion), definitely have their metal influences though.

"You're a motherfuckin' piece of **** and you'll never amount to nothing."I too really like "Fucking Determined" it's sound/feel reminds me of the "Kill I Oughta" album (re-released as "The Beginning of All Things to End"), which is a good listen if you can accept the fact that it isn't nearly as polished as L.D. 50 or The End of All Things to Come.

You can say that again. He can sure shred the fret board.and yeah Zakk Wylde is the freaking man
That's not a bad deal. How does it compare to the ibanez 7 string?http://www.music123.com/Washburn-WG...6.music?match=1
I just picked up the black one w/ 2 15' cables and a stand, for $207 shipped. I was worried it would be a POS, but damn it is a NICE guitar. Real comfortable and fast neck, sounds damn good too. Built like a tank - unbelievable deal at that price.
couple items you may be interested in:I plan on going to see BLS April 19th at the House of Blues down in New Orleans, anybody else on this board from the area? email me @ [email protected] if you want to hook up!!
on another note, Does anybody know if Judas Priest is planning on a U.S. tour?? They release their new CD tomorrow, but I have yet to hear about a tour..
Well, my RG1077XL is my crown jewel so nothing compares to that Seriously though, the Washburn plays very well...the neck is 'rounder' than the Wizard neck on my 1077, more like the RG7620 (ie: Universe-style), and has a natural finish. Bridge pickup sounds killer, neck a bit muddy but that's easy enough to upgrade. Alder body, maple neck, black sparkle paint, all black hardware and a stop tail bridge.That's not a bad deal. How does it compare to the ibanez 7 string?
when dealing with metal one must make the distinction between real metal/metalcore and nu-metal(ie poser metal)
real metal bands:
killswitch engage
shadows fall
in flames
unearth
arch enemy
all that remains......just to name a few
nu(poser) metal bands:
mudvanyne
slipknot
disturbed
taproot
trapt......this stuff is NOT real metal
Meshuggah's 'Destroy Erase Improve' is one of my favorite albums. If you listen to that disc long enough, your mind will start to achieve a higher state of consiousness from the sheer polyrhythmic brutality of iti REALLY dig some metal .. but no american bands come to mind .. i've always loved meshuggah and just discovered Satyricon who i think are fucking SICK! ... neither american though lol
No Louisiana dates... Sucks to be me..Coming soon to your hometown:
Nice line-up...
:icon_lol:Beautiful in a firebreathing-demon-crawling-out-of a-crack-in-the-earth and comming to devour your soul sort of way.

Its because the wankery got out of hand..you'll still hear a ripping solo from bands like Behemoth, Soilwork, Inflames, Godforbid, and Evergrey.I am a big 80's metal fan, I cant really get into the new metal, not melodic enough and the vocals suck. Nobody wants to do a damn solo anymore, no classical based pentatonic scales, hammer ons and pull offs, arrpegios and triplets. Its all just chug chug chug chug, and then yelling.
Ok, I just tried some samples on Amazon of the bands recommended here:alot of what people call 80's metal is not really metal at all, its glam rock. Bands like twisted sister, white snake, def leppard. 80s metal is more like dio, motorhead, judas preist. Imo both genres suck. The only good 80s metal band is iron maiden.
I listened to some of the Newer Soilwork, not bad. It goes from heavy to then soft choruses, which is not bad at all. I really like the melodic guitar work, its great stuff and I love that kind of playing style. You guys need to check out some King Diamond, he is the one that started all the black metal melodic death metal stuff, the solo's and vocals are amazing, its like listening to a Handel Opera transposed for Metal.the singer from soilwork has an awesome voice when he sings, check out the there newer albums, they have more singing. todays metal just might not be for you,
