I really can't listen to too much Muse without wanting to hit the singer, his style is just too nasal (even more so than Axl Rose, so you know how nasal that must be!). However, I like most of their music, though their new album lacks energy and some of their old appeal I feel.

Billy Sheehan John Myung Jaco Pastorius Geezer Butler And, not so much for talent but.... Tom Araya LEEEEMMMMYYYY!

Well, obviously Dimebag (R.I.P), and Zak Wylde, but I've only seen a couple of mentions of John Petrucci! He is insanity itself for Dream Theater. Also, Herman and Sam from the D-Force, and if you doubt Alexi Laiho, then check out 'If you want peace, prepare for war'. And I can't remember...

Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater) Dave Lombardo (Slayer) What's he called from Chimaira Dave Mackintosh (D-Force) Fredrik Andersson (Amon Amarth) Most prog-metal drummers are great too

You realise that you may not actually need someone who can sing properly? ZP Theart has only recently started to sound any good for Dragonforce, just listen to 'Valley of the Damned', some of 'Sonic Firestorm', and to some extents 'Inhuman Rampage'. If you can get someone high enough (assuming...

Has anyone got any tips for playing live in a band? I know quite a bit, but this is only my second gig so I thought I'd ask the dudes round here. We're prog metal/old skool metal, and we're playing to a mixed audience. I'm a bassist/co-vocalist. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. :rock:

You caused all of this to happen With you never ending rejection If all that this achieves Is that I become another martyred soul In this world of misdemeanour Then so be it Another martyred soul whose faith can shake mountains Whose belief can topple kingdoms And destroy empires My...

Well, I was looking at the lyrics discussion page, and I had the idea of making a huge song joint with all the people here! Basically, everyone posts either 2 sets of 2 lines, or 4 lines, of lyrics. Any subject, just try and make it fit into the song :D !!! Have fun, I'll join in later on, cos I...

Ah, the everlasting debate. Whether to sing or to scream, or both??? Of course, many genres are defined by whether you sing or scream (roar/grunt...whatever). For example, it's impossible to imagine the gods that are Dream Theater having a roar of anger in an intro, yet it's likewise hard to...

If everyone thought good thoughts, and were nice, "perfect" people, then civilisation would work (this gives me deja vu from a debate on Communism) and not damage the earth as much, reduce our genetic strength etc. However, we cannot be expected to reach the ultimate plateau of civilisation...

Ooh yeah sorry I forgot to put that in :). Yes. Hem. :P.

I personally don't believe, but I have read some very interesting scientific evidence about porroving god exists. I'll have to dig out the link and post it. But a thought: We don't believe in God, but we all believe are on a rock spinning in the middle of a vacuum, and we're kept in place by...

Now not causing offence to guitarists, but don't listen to anyone when someone tells you that guitar takes more skill than bass. If you are in a serious, proper band, where you alter how you play your song onstage each show and don't just play the same riffs allthe time, then bass is a very...
