    Guitarists: string gauge/tuning?

    D'Adarrio, 11-49, C#. I may switch the lowest string to a .5-something, though, for some tighter riffing, even though I love the huge bends I can get on the low string. Every once in a while I think about switching up brands, too, but I love D'Addario's, especially compared to the Ernie Ball's I...

    Scarves? So not metal they're metal. I'd wear one. I need a scarve.

    Read MORE in 2007! Now Reading...

    I finished reading World War Z by Max Brooks a few weeks ago, and I must say it is a great read! I couldn't put the book down! He wrote the political and human reactions very well in the case of a large pandemic, with the fact that it was the living dead making it much more interesting. I'm...

    Jessica's Vocal Presence

    I've been listening to the last half of Pursuit lately, and Jessica's vocals add even more emotion and atmosphere to the songs. What I'd like to know, Dave, is if her vocals will be featured more on the album? A duet, perhaps?

    For those who enjoyed "Pursuit of the Sun & Allure of the Earth"...

    Dragged Across a Forest Floor and The Sun Was in My Eyes: Part Doom. I rather like that Ghosts of Summer's Past idea, too. I'd dig it.

    Respect Towards The Metal Scene...

    I agree. I don't even wear band tee's anymore, though. Music is music, fashion is fashion. Hell, I'd say I look more indie than anything, except without the super-tight clothing. The metal scene in my area is non-existant. It used to be a decent punk scene, but now it's all really bad...

    female vocals in metal

    I hate Gossow's vocals... Anyway, I highly recommend Giant Squid for some female vocals. Doom-ish band that is simply amazing. Witch isn't bad, either. The way their songs are mixed, it actually sounds like a witch at a seance. Female vocals can really make a song better, too. "Weight" by...
