    Hatred in Metal Scene...

    Metalness does not come from a look or approval from outside sources; it resides within! My advice is to... "Let the Metal Flow" - Chuck Schuldiner :rock:

    Marty Friedman: Exibit A live in Europe

    What's up Ron? Haven't checked back here in awhile, but I just wanted to tell you I was in Amoeba Records in Hollywood and I picked up a Marty Friedman live in Europe cd.

    Do you consider this a "rip-off" or accident?

    That dissection and cob riff just sounds like some scale played in thirds kinda like the intro to the solo in Silent Night Bodom night. It's typical, not a rip off imo. While on the other hand knuckleduster almost sounds like a complete rip off of Roots Bloody Roots by Sepultura and IYF...

    First of all, you never mentioned your soul; you spoke about the meaning of your existence. Yes it does boil down to belief, and it's YOUR belief that you are bound to the conditioning of the outside environment. There's a hundred billion ways to live: pick one right?

    I totally agree with the latter, but disagree with the former. You do have a point to your existence that's out of your control: it's your unique circumstance that you were born into.

    Personal experience is enough to make someone believe and I'm sure she's not the only one with this experience so it's too general to discount all of the data around the world as erroneous or discredible . It's just you have never had such an experience, you have never seen or felt these things...

    I'm reading a book about this right now. The section is about "good excuses". Basically it says this: our consciouness forms logical premises to apply rational thought with its ability to reason. Reason has its benefits and liabilities; when reason urges us to cling to the known, go with the...

    Have you guys heard of the drug DMT? It's refered to as the spirit molecule. We all have it naturally occuring in us and shamans used to use it as a means to meditate and encounter other beings. The point being is that we use some small percentage of our brain's capabilities and dmt is a...
