    New album and line-up!

    Wow... this is an interesting turn of events! I must say I am intrigued! No word on who is playing bass though eh? Regardless, I think Jacob would be an awesome fit- nobody knows your band's music better than the guy who engineered on it. I await further news with bated breath!

    Good things come...

    Uh oh... here comes another one of Jonah's waiting games!

    LOTBC

    Yeah LOTBC was a great album- and I agree, I think I could do without the narrations... I read an interview a while back with Lance King and he even said that he though the narrations were cheesy. I still think that my favourite Pyramaze album is their first- Melancholy Beast- mainly because it...

    Iced Earth - Dystopia

    Ehhh... I dunno. When they announced the title of the album I thought it was pretty generic sounding... I mean how many other metal bands have albums named Dystopia? Some of the song titles sound interesting, but like... c'mon... Soylent Green? Like the book/movie where people are unknowingly...

    Matt Barlow Retires from Iced Earth

    I remember when Into Eternity opened for Iced Earth. I'll admit, I wasn't that impressed by them when they played, and I remember his vocals being a bit off that night. (mind you Matt was off a bit during the Iced Earth set too- they're still human... sorta...) Stu does have really good...

    PYRAMAZE Parts Ways With Guitarist, Bassist

    Wow, I wasn't expecting this... Michael's awesome songwriting capabilities and the cool bass fills that Niels threw in here and there were obviously an integral part of Pyramaze. I never would have expected the creator of the band to leave! I'm glad that Pyramaze is continuing, every album...

    News from Pyramaze

    I just hope this doesn't end up being like Tad Morose- years of little to no contact with the world and the promise of an album that doesn't show! They are like the Duke Nukem Forever of metal... except Duke Nukem Forever is actually coming out now... jkz jkz of course, but seriously... what the...

    News from Pyramaze

    I'll be very disappointed if we haven't heard from them because Urban spontaneously combusted :hotjump: and they don't want to tell us they have to find another singer. That would suck!

    Recent CD Purchases?

    I got that album last year- saw them open up for Pagan's Mind and Stratovarious, twas very good show. They were by far the best opening act that night. Cool guys too. I'd say Vanishing Point is a pretty good band to compare them. They started off with a female vocalist and were kind of...

    The Death of Iced Earth?!?!?!

    I dunno... I mean if it was going to be the end of Iced Earth, I'm sure they would have put something on the IE website... instead they just said that they are going to be playing some shows and go re-signed with Century Media... where did you hear that he was leaving the states? And even if...

    Type O Negative frontman dead

    I was so sad when I heard this the other day, I didn't believe it at first- I thought it was another hoax... TON was/is my favorite band, I really wish I could have seen them live and Pete was one of the few musicians I really wanted to meet and talk to. All I've had in my car are my TON...

    Jon Schaffer - Sons of Liberty

    Seeing as its free there isn't really much to complain about. The interview he did for it on the Alex Jones show was interesting, the release very unexpected- all in all a pleasant surprise.

    LOTB v IMMORTAL? (revisited)

    I don't know, it's a tough choice. I was a huge fan of Barlow's voice and Lance's voice long before Pyramaze was formed, so I can't really say I like one more than the other. I've enjoyed all of Pyramaze's releases equally- the first time I popped Melancholy Beast into my CD player I knew that...
