    Off to Israel... but how??

    I didnt know it, nice to learn something's new, and better considering it comes from a first-person-perspective source, which gives it more value. lozano

    Monuments Of Your Country

    You should travel to Toledo, it is another multicultural place, and it is quite close to Madrid. I personally love Toledo, it is one of my fav cities of Spain. http://www.thinkspain.com/news-spain/14063/toledo-the-multicultural-capital-of-ancient-spain To the politics issue: What's the...

    Monuments Of Your Country

    Obviously there are people that doesnt stand with the reality there: they are part of Spain and they have never been a state itself (only as the County of Barcelona, maybe?) but always a part of the Crown of Aragon and Catalonia, and later as part of the Crown of Castile and Aragon. But it is...

    Monuments Of Your Country

    Portillo's Castle (Portillo). Simancas' Castle (Simancas). It looks like it has not any defensive abilities, it is more like a residence, but it is the most beautiful castle in Valladolid. In the xvi century Felipe II made it the General Archives of the Reign (a place to store official...

    Monuments Of Your Country

    Hi: I will show you my province through a special route which is typical here. It's the castle route. Valladolid (the place I live) it is part of the old Reign of Castile, which is the pillar of Spain (in a medieval sense). All of these buildings are inside my province, which has only...

    Off to Israel... but how??

    Do you think he told it as a real illness? Or just as an adjective of some kind of lack of social abilities? Not sure, because autistics are characterised by the lack of social interaction/communication and he is interacting (socially) with us in this forum... Dont know... lozano P.S: Si...

    Off to Israel... but how??

    Then, I wouldnt live in a place where state discriminates against non-jewish people. Not to count that I dislike most of Israel rulers (they are hate feeders). lozano P.S: ¿Y dejarias España para irte a Israel? Tampoco soy un buen ejemplo por que yo no dejaria mi bienamada España por...

    It feels so wierd not having a *like* button here.

    Statements like that makes me think that the world is collapsing. I'm part of the old school, and I've grown with forums, mailing lists and ircs. mailing lists were substituted by forums. ircs were substituted by messenger (who remembers Miranda ICQ?) forums will dissapear because of twiters...

    Bands like Orphaned Land (oriental metal etc.)

    I also discovered Myrath because I saw it in the progpower bandlist. At first hear, they seem prog metal in the "genre"/gereral meaning, but with some "east"/magreb influences. They have not death-like influences, like OL. I will continue hearing them since I've enjoyed a lot hearing them...

    Your impressions about The Never Ending Way Of ORwarriOR.

    If you've just got into Orphaned Land, I'd recommend not to hear its alltime masterpiece: Mabool. Hearing two great albums at the same time it isnt a good idea, probably one of two will "swallow" the other one, shadowing it and you take the risk of unconsciously rejecting the "bad" one, and...

    Favourite Albums

    Well, I cannot make a top-10 list, its imposible to have at a time in my brains all the albums I've ever heard to process the "best-of" list... Its easier to think about the best bands, and then chose an album of each one... From past: Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son Megadeth -...

    Rock/Metal Operas

    Didnt notice you already were spaniard too, so definitively i was not expecting to find Edgar Allan Poe in the list. No, lo siento, no frecuento webs especializadas en español, hasta hace poco no saliamos de Iron Maiden y me rallaba mucho. Las echare un ojo a ambas webs. lozano

    Rock/Metal Operas

    I do not usually like Rock Operas, exceptions are Ayreon works and Avantasia. But just to add something: there is a project of two spanish non-metallers guys (Jacobo García and Joaquín Padilla) to write an album about the life of Edgar Allan Poe. It is called EDGAR ALLAN POE – LEGADO DE...
