Same here. Now that I think of it, I missed the Tavern a lot (I mean sure enough) during it's absence, even though I no longer post in it (at least not regularly).

There's already a prog rock thread.

They are quite different styles of music, actually. Post-rock can be described as progressive, and it is essentially rock, but its origin as a style is quite far from prog. It's like hardcore to metal. Both are heavy and aggressive, but they are definitely different styles.

Yes, actually. You're pretty sharp, aren't you?

Are you fucking kidding me?

..........Holy shit, you're... dumb?

Well, post rock is included as a prog genre in progarchives. As a prog listener, I don't really enjoy post rock et al but I am a Genesis/KC/Gentle Giant type, not the DT/PT type who probably like post rock a lot.

That reminds me of a huge conversation I had once (similar to the MUTORCS fiasco) where me and a few other chat buddies would just start naming off "Post"- genre tags that were obviously exaggerated. That was one of them.

if you guys could just refrain from posting for about 5 min, i need to sniff around and get readjusted to this new territory.

In other news, I think I am lactating milk chocolate. Does anyone want to lick my titties?

took you that long to figure it out?

Only noticed this just now. So, the appointment of all the new forum mods was indeed an April fool's joke. My first impression was right!

Why is that dastardly WretchedSpirit fellow so silent, thought he would miss the Tavern the most out of all of us?

Oh wait! Just realized, he's in mourning!

But the Prog Archives just add anything these days. I recently found out that they have My Dying Bride on there... which is just silly. That website is terrible anyway, barely any discussion on bands outside of King Crimson and Porcupine Tree.

Sad... how is wanting a separate homeland for your people automatically make you a supremacist?

Now that the Tavern is out of reach for the common rabble, I think we could start using this area for discussing the characters of various users. Placing this thread here and not the Admin HQ as usual is perhaps more useful, since even the guys without admin status can participate, and it's not like we could leak anything important this way with the Tavern hidden.

The first question I'd like to throw out there is on DeathRiderDoom... I mean, come on, his band is called "Gaywyre", with an EP called Coming Out. He's extremely friendly to handsome and masculine fellows (like me) on the IRC, and I know that Kiwis, generally, are not that puristic on their attitudes on not-quite-that-straight folks. Not that it matters, it's not like he could ever physically touch me, but anyway, just asking... Opinions?

MUTORCS YB DESSESBO

All I know is it's a retarded as fuck name. "Post" anything sounds horrible to me.

Anyway, the new Kiuas is about the most disappointing thing I've ever heard, sounds like Axenstar or something, absolutly zero balls, also, a Dragonforce keyboard tone and focus.

Well I'm glad this is back, I have an important question that's not worthy of its own thread. I'm doing a German cultural project, and I was wondering if anyone who lives in Germany could fill me in on a couple things. Do German speakers call black metal schwarz Metal, or do they say the English black metal? Same question for the other genres. Also, are drugs common at a metal show over there? I know people smoke a lot of bud at shows here, but I was under the impression that German laws are more strict. Any help on this would be much appreciated!

No more video game thread? That means no more Shutdown, which means...REJOICE!
