I've been "playing" guitar for 2 years without any lessons or tips from anyone except the book "guitar for dummies" and I think as a result I have been developing with bad technique... My dilemma is that the fingers on my fretting (left) hand will not remain close to the string. Say I'm using...

Okay i've read back about 10 thread pages or so looking for sound card tips... Here is the situation. I need a sound card that will sound good recording vocals / guitars / bass / keyboards [not midi]. I have about $150 canadian dollars to spend. I probably will not be able to afford a...

How could you forgot the almighty epic "Art of Life" ?!! X-Japan's 28-minute prog EPIC

Vertigo you're hung up on hating blind guardian and you're ignorantly going about it too. The comment about the "cursed" state of texas wasn't from blind guardian. it was from the blind guardian WEBMASTER who even apologized in forum since other people got offended. and the webmaster is...

i know that, that's why i said i wouldn't necessarily call them black metal. just that you have to admit their first albums were influenced by black metal greatly.

hey requiem... your signature graphic should read "breathe" not "breath" as a breath is not the action of breathing, its merely a noun while "breathe" is the verb! =]

heh. well i also like cradle and dimmu, though i wouldn't necessarily call them BM. i enjoy my death and black metal as well. what i don't understand though, is why a lot of guys here hate power metal. usually prog and power would go hand in hand!
