    The story of Still Life...

    Omfg!! that dude totally ripped me off. lol. Here's the original post and thread written almost a year ago. http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3903 Though this is a petty offense, I strongly feel that plagiarism is the worst crime in the information age. People...

    Maudlin of the Well lyrics

    Well, there are times I listen to Opeth (and the majority of metal acts) and see in their music a crude and loud noise. Interestingly, these are the times I like MotW most. So it is something like apples and oranges. As I wrote before, I look forward to future productions from this band. The...

    Homosexual Japanese Macaques and the Frivolity of Nature

    Here's an article I've read just now: Adaptive conundrum of swinging both ways 20 February 2002 21:00 GMT by Bea Perks, BioMedNet News Homosexuality, at least in female Japanese macaques, serves no function beyond sexual gratification and is simply an evolutionary by-product, suggests...

    Maudlin of the Well lyrics

    I beg to disagree. Next to Opeth, MotW are weak. They're Great but there's something too placid and frail about their style of music however much creative polish goes into the albums. This becomes very evident when one considers MotW's music from a technical point of view. Nothing quite...

    Opeth Live Credence/ Mik's Singing in a higher voice?..

    Ok, I can't provide a link because it no longer exists. The web page is blank now. But listening to this mp3 of Mik singing Credence at some 2001 show in Springfield- does anyone know what I'm talking about?- I'm astonished. Firstly, it doesn't sound like MA singing. Whoever's singing has...

    Why do a lot of people like Leaving Your Body Map better than Bath?

    How can you not like Gleam in Ranks? "In the war of red and gold, Our hero was Gold!"? The "interludes" are better on LYBM too. The first on in LYBM is a beauty, and the second -- where else can you feel like it's Christmas while listening to metal? Other things: how can you not like...

    Why do a lot of people like Leaving Your Body Map better than Bath?

    Bumblefoot: If you go to the dark symphonies site, you can pick up a "definitive Maudlin set" for 20$, free shipping for those in US and Canada. The set includes Bath/LYBM, a poster and a sticker (and bunch of postcards of various bands). Or go to the mp3 site for more samples. I recently...

    Maudlin of the Well - The Ferryman

    The secret song definitely rules. Incidentally, I finally got around to ordering the Bath/Body Map albums. I got both in the set for twenty US dollars. I'll probably place an order for "My Fruit" before this month ends. I'm definitely looking forward to future projects. Nuff said.

    Another Maudlin Of The Well thread, because they so goddamned good.

    go to the official site dude and pick up both Bath and Leaving Your Body Map for a cheap price. (I think a sticker and poster comes with it too, if the package is still in stock) Try www.maulinofthewell.com

    The Devin Townsend Thread

    Metal88 and Blue Moon: I think there is greater creativity in DT's work than there's in DW's work. As an artist, a person seeking to create something more than an album full of songs, Townsend, in my view, is much more vibrant and energetic than Swano ever will be- though the latter dude...

    The most therapeutic music?

    When I'm angry I listen to metal. But when I'm depressed, or frustrated, for whatever reason I listen to... Enya. it's soothing.

    I need some cheering up.

    Remember that? I was feeling pretty down yesterday. But now I regard it as a learning experience. I go through these famouse "deconstructive" phases, where I basically tear down my soul- or get torn. But I build up something that's stronger. It's kind of painful only because it involves me...

    The Devin Townsend Thread

    @fathervic: Don't be a stranger! Be sure to check out the many argument/political/philosophical threads in the chat/off topic Opeth Forum. Exercise your intellect and have a flame battle or two. It's not as pointless as it might seem. There are many jokes there besides. It's ghettolicious. :)
