    just picked up Iced Earth's "The Reckoning", a four song preview of the new album

    ~I wouldn't say Ripper "SLAYS" Barlow, that's about impossible. But Tim does do his job well. Once he starts singing IE songs live and fits into the mold a bit better... then we'll see what happens. ~And I certainly don't think Iced Earth has better riffs than old Metallica anymore than I...

    O/T: Machine Head's response to kerrang! UK review of new album

    ~First of all, Machine Head had one good album. And in retrospect it wasn't anywhere near as good as Vio-lence. Arguably Rob Flynn turned his back on his thrash roots and fueled the fires of the rap cross-over, (as did Max Cavalera). So I don't understand why there's a big discussion over some...

    the funniest Testaent review I've read

    ~The first review wasn't even worth mention. Souls of Black was the album that got me into Testament, and considering that it was written and recorded in a matter of weeks it's damn impressive! ~As for the second... there should be a law that people who have never listened to metal should...

    Kinda corny, but WTF... what did you get for X-mas?

    ~I got 30$, a Applebees gift card, and a card for Xmas. What did I do with it? I bought gifts for other people who are near impossible to shop for. The best thing about Christmas is that I get to see my family. The rest of it, is just wank for retail sales.

    Borivoj From Blabbermouth.....Reviews Exodus:Tempo Of The Damned

    Ah ol' Borivoj. He helped Sepultura get signed to Roadrunner for Beneath the Remains, and wrote for Metal Maniacs for a while. This will be the album that I wanted from Exodus for over a decade.

    Megadeth!

    ~Yeah, I think you're a fucking fruitcake. First of all there is no such website as HotMetalNewsUSA.com. Second Dave has had 100% use of his hand since last March, (for confirmation of this read "A year later" at Megadeth.com, The band's and Dave's official website) so why would he need someone...

    War is disgusting

    ~Thanks for correcting me. Sometimes I don't see the difference.

    RE: WCFYA - Sure, we're all biased, but.......

    ~Did I even buy any metal albums this year? Let's see... Kreator's Live album was great. Unfortunately it made me realise that I wasn't the biggest Kreator fan, (hey it only took me 13 years to figure it out! lol) but bless them for staying true and coming back strong. Soilwork blew it...

    most hated band?

    ~I have to agree on Wimp Bisquick. They have to be the most pathetic band on the planet. They had ladies nights to increase their female fan base, but their new album isn't selling anymore. I hope they crash and burn, if not figuratively then literally. To my knowledge the new Metallica isn't...

    Headbanger's Ball

    ~Well, compared to how it used to be... I mean when Headbangers Ball ended they were playing the latest grunge videos, and a whole lot of hairspray and spandex. Now they're playing mostly mall-core with like 3-5 videos of good stuff (meaning black, death, thrash, gothenburg, etc.). So as a whole...

    Lets hear about your Anthrax collections

    ~The rarest thing I have is a European version of Fistful of Metal with Armed and Dangerous 2 disc set. I used to have a POV tape and a POT poster, but I lost them.

    Optional Metallica

    ~They do that at my local rock station. I think I'll send that to them thanks!

    Some Belladonna stuff (sludge, metallum maximus aeturnes)

    ~I can't agree or disagree lol. But I still love old Nuclear Assault and Lilker was a big part of that. I'm glad that NA are back together but to be honest, the Alive Again album (even in comparison to the Hammersmith Odeon album) sounded extremely unrehearsed.

    War is disgusting

    ~Whether you like it or not, our armed forces are doing their best to make sure that in the future people don't bomb buildings and ships, or hijack planes to crash them into buildings holding 3,000 people or worse. Our initial motives for getting rid of the Iraqi regiem may have been...

    Megadeth!

    ~And if you really think that Skank Anger can touch Nevermore's last two albums Enemies of Reality and Dead Heart in a Dead World, you're snorting too much Johnson's baby powder and you're not worth the time I spend picking my nose.
