Congrats, man! You must be very happy. Plus, I'd like to know; what did you study?

That was May 29th I've still got the flier, I'm pretty sure it was Amon Amarth on 4/20.

It would be awesome if my birthday was 4/20, though

Ah FFFFFUUUU I got it mixed up. Of course AA was that, I knocked my head bad on the first song.

I always get warm and fuzzy when I read about the cool forum members hanging out and getting fucked up.

That Amon Amarth show was awesome though, god damn. When Johan was giving his little speech about how Washington has good beer, I yelled out "we have some damn good pot too." He then pauses for a good second, holds the mike towards the crowd and says "Washington. DO YOU AGREE?" And there was an eruption of cheering, it was glorious.

But I haven't posted anything about hanging out or getting--oh. Ohhhh.

Wanna hook up and cry together, Zelkiiro?

pssh, nerds.

I'll bring the tissues.

I don't think that term still counts as an insult, Frog.

Basically. I always say I'd love to live out on a farm when I get really old and retire. For now I need big cities and lots of friends/acquaintances.



English, journalism and creative writing. Really have my work cut out for me in terms of jobs.

Just got home from Death to All, great fucking time for sure. Anciients was pretty meh (not really my thing) but Death was fantastic and Max kicked serious ass. Also met BastardHead at the show tonight.

That's highly awesome, though yeah, talk about having a niche

Creative writing sounds particularly cool, though I don't think I'd ever take up that. My narrative skills are..... Well, non-existent

Congrats Empyreal! A new chapter beckons and all the best for that.

I've been listening to Clann Zu. They're an eclectic mix of celtic folk, post-rock and some minimal electronica. All in all, good calm relaxing music.

Enya but with guitars? I can't really talk as I've been playing a huge amount of Hammock lately.

Well, yes and no. See for yourself Caspo - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivd8WZwzZkw
Few of their other songs are more guitar driven.

If Enya took a bunch of heroin, maybe.

It's like Moran said, if a vagina could speak it would sound exactly like Enya.

(can't shake the feeling that I still lost somehow)

This is quite an achievement. Congratulations, mate.

So here's The Ruins of Beverast playing live for the first time ever at Roadburn 2013.

Believe the songs are the end of "Kain's Countenance Fell" and "Between Bronze Walls".

Never give up! You won the moral victory here. Don't let the internet bullies (you know who you are Tony) quench the flame of true metal truth and conscious freedom of knowledge of what's RIGHT. In metal, and in real life. We are the true warriors that have triumphed and conquered this day (yesterday). Raise the shields and swords!!!

Sure, whatever. Holy fuck TROB live? SO MUCH YES!

Man, I would punch babies to see TROB live. They really need to come to the Messe des Morts someday, I would gladly replace Sargeist and Horna (they'll play with Baptism at the next one) for them!

Beverast on Party.San Open Air 2013 is what needs to happen. It's just the natural course of things. Only an evil, twisted god would prevent it.

Man, I should check out TROB, if only because everyone here seems to be crazy for them.....

...*turns back to slapping He-Man figures together over 1:32 scale Castle Greyskull diorama*

Just went to Communion + Slaughtbbath + Putrid Yell + Apostasy + Force of Darkness = pure blasphemy! I bought the Slaughtbbath's debut and Excoriate cds. Also, I'm getting my whole left arm tattooed tomorrow.

Man, lots of people talking about Roadburn and KIT that happened over the weekend Did some of ya'll go for them? I know tomcat would've gone to Roadburn and possibly Acrobat to KIT?

Acrobat met DeathRiderDoom at KIT I'm so jealous!

What the fuck is KIT?

The Kit Kat festival

Knight Industries Two Thousand. Google it.

Gotcha, Tony. Never heard of it before, but it looks like mostly traditional heavy metal.

Also, Kit Kat Klub?

Has anybody here ever taken Abilify? It was proposed to me today as a replacement for the Haldol that had no desirable effect on me, and I'd like to hear some testimony from some people other than that friend of mine. Cheers to anyone who can help.

Hey, he got to meet me, too! That's an exciting experience for anyone!

But yeah, had a fucking blast this weekend. And now I really don't want to go back to reality.

Happy Earth Day everybody.

Just saw a few of the videos of The Ruins of Beverast's live performance, and they sounded great! I'd be really interested in knowing what sort of rig they're running...I think I spotted an Orange TH100, which would explain the monster clean tones.

What surprises me is that Alex does not play the drums.
