Wasn't Lacuna Coil already on a previous Gigantour?

A lot of these guys aren't doing it because they're committed to the lifestyle, they're doing it because they can't afford to stop touring and after 20-30 years of not doing anything but touring they're not qualified for any other job that can support them.

Morbid Florist posted:I actually went on a dissection spree monday so I needed a decent stunt-dissection today. It's not bad, but yeah, imitated but not duplicated. When I was in college, one of my friends was complaining about the fact that Perfect Circle sounded exactly like Tool. Another friend of mine responded "I'd much rather have another band that sounds like Tool than another band that sounds like Nickelback." I try to keep that in mind when newer bands are derivative.

RHTITE posted:Why? It's still another redundant band. If they aren't adding anything to improve upon the band they're imitating, then there's no point to them either. By that logic, Motorhead should have never released more than one album.

Velocirocktor posted:I'll listen to a derivative band for the same reasons I'll listen to a band's album that sounds like a continuation of the previous album: 20 songs I like is better than 10. This was the point I was trying to make.

For the power metal section - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-TZIfpycY8 Rhapsody are adorably ridiculous, but if you're gonna include Blind Guardian, they're definitely worthy of mention.

5 Magics is the only song on that album I really don't particularly care for.

Just got back from the Manowar show and I feel like I got run over by a truck made of sound. That is without exaggeration the loudest concert I have ever been to.

They actually brought their own sound system for the show. The speakers looked like the monolith from 2001, they were like seven feet tall and four feet wide. Things I never thought I would hear that I heard at this show - The sound of a guitar string being ripped out of a guitar while it's still plugged into an amp A man playing Flight of the Bumblebee on a bass guitar

Monkeytime posted:Did the show also feature Joey DiMaio going the gently caress off on the promoter/false metal/true metal/his bass tech? I swear he ranted for the better part of 20 minutes when I saw them and that alone was worth the price of admission. It's a shame they don't tour more in the US, I don't get it. He went off for like 10 minutes on how awesome Manowar fans are, but he didn't have a bad thing to say about the promoter or techs last night. They mentioned that this was the only US stop on the tour because it was the only place that would let them bring their own sound system, so maybe that's why they don't do more US locations. Also Eric Adams pipes are loving amazing considering he's loving fifty-seven. They did a straight two hour set with no breaks and he basically sang the whole way through except for a couple guitar-solo sections.

Anthrax is also more unapologetically nerdy than the rest of them. I mean, pretty much all metal has a strong streak of geekery to it, but Anthrax is doing songs about Judge Dredd and hiring Alex Ross to do album covers and poo poo.

I don't necessarily disbelieve that, but I have a hard time conceptualizing anything on No More Tears being written by Lemmy.

Having listened to this, "Expendable" appears to actually be a song about The Expendables movie.

rxcowboy posted:1: For great steaks, go to Fogo De Chao. All of this is true, although Fogo De Chao is so much more than just "great steaks" There's also a great combination american diner/indian food place that I could dig up the location of if you think you'd like that sort of thing. And Kawasaki's is a pretty good sushi joint. I also have a lot of friends in Baltimore who are filthy hippies, so if you want good vegan/vegetarian/etc dining options I could ask around. Also you might want to ask this question in GWC; there are a number of "[X CITY] Dining Thread" threads. I don't think there's one for Baltimore yet, but you could start one, or ask in the DC Dining thread - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3529926

I'd find it a bit weird if anyone listened to only one genre or subgenre exclusively, no matter what it was.

Vintersorg posted:I dont have any clue where I heard this from but I heard a story from someone (and yes, this sounds like Bill Brasky) but apparently at a show he picked a girl up by her crotch and brought her on stage. That's been my only thing about Manowar and whenever I hear a song by em, I think of him picking up girls by their crotch on stage. Hopefully while they were playing Pleasureslave.
