The new Iron Mask album is a special kind of bad that can only be achieved by mediocre symphonic power metal bands deciding they really want to be Saxon.

Okay so quick question why does Robert Trujillo play his bass so low? I was watching Quebec Magnetic and it was down to his knees.

Radio Paranoia posted:This is pretty cool. Twice a year, metal4africa.com, the website that I help run does a festival with between 8 and 9 local bands from Southern Africa. Every now and then we try to get in a band from a neighbouring country and this year in January we got Overthrust from Botswana. Somebody filmed their full set and popped it up on Youtube. I know this post is like a week old but thanks for this. I remember a year ago or so, a goon posted something on Botswana metal scene. Picked up the Crackdust album from that and been jamming to it since then. I'm digging the Botswana sound.

Speaking of music from countries not usually associated with metal, someone at metal-archives made a huge post about his globetrotting discoveries. It's definitely worth reading. http://www.metal-archives.com/board/viewtopic.php?p=2316669#p2316669 There were a few posts after that one as well.

Having seen them a couple of times (and as a parent myself) definitely yes. Johan always seemed to be having a good time bantering with the crowd and the pits are relatively tame. It's a fun rock show, not some INVOKING THE DARK RITUAL routine. I'm in the US; I don't know if that makes a difference.

After talking about it with his parents and doing a bit of research as well as this I think I'm gonna take him.

Depending on the size of the venue it's usually pretty feasible to stay out of pits entirely at most shows. My folks wouldn't let me go to shows alone until I was 16 or so, so my dad had the pleasure of sitting through his fair share of metal concerts. He was always able to find a "safe" place to stand while he waited to drive my friends and I home afterward.

GWAR covered Billy Ocean. The second half is particularly delightful. Xandoom posted:So I'm a huge Amon Amarth fan and noticed they were playing in my city in February. Would this be an event that would be suitable/safe to bring my 15 year old kid brother along? Oh, definitely. Pits can be avoided and usually even the most frenzied idiots will dial it down if there's a kid standing nearby. He'll be fine. I'd be a little more leery if you had a kid sister because older guys at metal shows can be incredibly awful around teenage girls. edrith fucked around with this message at 02:39 on Nov 13, 2013 |

When I was 15 I was going to concerts every weekend to see bands like Murder City Devils and Cro-Mags and I'm a small daintyperson. I think your brother can handle Amon Amarth.

Well, Nachtmystium is done. Can't say I didn't see that coming.Blake Judd posted:Alright everyone - it's official: Nachtmystium is R.I.P. Today, I turn 31 years old and as a gift to myself, as sad as it makes me to do this, I'm letting go of something that I've put blood, sweat and tears into for the last 13 1/2 years. It's been an amazing ride full of extreme highs and extreme lows. It's taken me around the world to places I'd never have imagined getting to see / experience. I've toured with some of my favorite bands ever and met some of the most amazing people I could ever have asked to meet. These experiences are fond memories that I will be able to reflect on until the day I die and be eternally grateful for having in my mind.

I'm a small chick (Haggins and het can attest to this) and I've never been seriously injured. That said, I've seen a kid about twelve years old get his rear end kicked in a few pits up here (notably Kreator), but he had a huuuuge grin on his face the whole time. He'll he fine!
