JH is turning into a free fan club? Sales are low I guess, or did the fanclub pretty much go downhill?

You guys should cover The Jester Race and Worlds Within the Margin.

Isn't it obvious? The songs that they play live from this record, for years to come, will be all of the singles. I'm almost sure that Where the Dead Ships Dwell will be the next one -- why? Because they're already playing it live, along with Deliver Us, and as we all know, that's how In Flames...

I've only listened to the album twice, so my opinion may change with time. But for now, I say it's a pretty mediocre record. Better than ASOP, sure, but that's about it. My biggest disappointment on the record is probably All For Me. It started out very promising and then turned to shit very...

I remember you from the JH. I also remember you playing Jotun with them. Pretty awesome shit.

I think Plintus re-joined JH incognito (since he got banned from there once), but I don't know if he's still there. Archy was a moderator at JH and as soon as he got that position, he axed Everdying. Last time I was at the JH forums, he was still listed as a moderator despite not having been...

He uses backing tracks. They layer the vocals a lot in the studio and if they don't use the backing tracks, they can't play the song live... I guess. I'd personally rather hear the songs without them. I think they sound horrible, especially in songs like Alias and My Sweet Shadow. I wish Anders...

That is one sad, sad setlist. Why do they insist on cramming in as many 'video hits' as possible? The setlist is made up almost entirely of them. And nothing pre-Clayman gets a huge thumbs down from me. It's bad enough when it's only 1 or 2 songs pre-Clayman, but zero? What the fuck. Sets...

My opinion is that Anders is trying to "clean up" the comments. I think he does mean that Jesper isn't interested in what they play anymore. I believe he has not been into it for a really long time. Look at Dimension Zero and look at his upcoming project -- I know we haven't heard The Resistance...

I could write constructive shit all day. In fact, I was. I was letting the dude know how things work over there. I wasn't just shitting on JH -- I said there were fine points too. It just so happened that I was lurking the boards and noticed somebody said something about JH, so I responded...

Sorry, is this your board? I don't owe you anything. If I want to give you an explanation, I will. Shut up.

Yeah, you're allowed to voice your opinion, but if the opinion isn't positive, you're basically attacked. Unless things have seriously changed there in the last year (which I doubt), then that means 90% of the 'community' there just eats whatever they're fed. I remember being personally...

Here's a tip: unless you only have "good things" to say, don't post on the forums. You say one tiny thing that one of the many fanboys doesn't like and you've got 30 people jumping down your throat. And then there's the one moderator there who thinks they run the fan club and that their way is...
