Who/what is Gaza?

Agree. I like Vobiscum Satanas and Secrets of the Black Arts as well. One of those bands I grew up with. Its very underwhelming to me. Its stuff I should love but it just doesnt click. I enjoy the later Negura Bunget way more than Dar De Duh.

I can only agree with the loudness craze. I hate it when the levels are pushed to the max. If I want to listen to a record on loud volume there is a volyme knob I can use. I dont want the level on the actual recording to be loud as fuck. I hate it when bands bury the bass in the mix. Im not...

* When people I dont know smile and are genuinely nice to me for no apparent reason. * When I meet someone who I can discuss politics, religion and philosophy with. They are a rare breed and after such meetings I always feel really great - finally someone I can talk to about the things I like...

- New Opeth wont be as 70's proggy as the latest effort was.

Im not hugely into classical music even if I find great enjoyment in some of what it has to offer. The PLanets is absolutely one of my favorite classical works. Its amazing. High recommend.

Discussing usernames with unknown people on forums isnt really what I focus on. Since its not all that important I obviously dont care enough to remember such things. On the debate, and the distinction between the two terms, I just want to say that its not a distinction I will use anytime...

Outside of the discussion that spawned this post I havent ever heard of the distinction between melodeath and melodic death metal. Not online and not IRL. Not saying some use it but it sure isnt widespread. For me its the same thing though - I never saw a distinction. There is obviously bands...

Its the same thing isnt it? There is no "both" in between.

I get annoyed with my friends on facebook who obviously get all their information and thoughts from the evening press and then keep writing about it on their status bar. It makes them look really stupid. I used to live in England (London) for a year and spent time in England several times...

Yes and no. I think there must be something in the music that does compell me but I do have the same feeling as you. The best example for me atm is Tool. I was in the car with my band years ago and our vocalist put on some Tool album and I really didnt get the hype. I actually thought it was...

I started out with "Ecailles de Lune" and it worked wonders for me. However it took several listenings for me to really appreciate it. When an albu takes its time to develop in my mind it usually emans that there is more quality to it than experiences Ive had where the reaction has been immediate.

Im not all that into Slayer at all. Its fine, good for a while soemtimes but in general not. I've seen them live 3 times though and they are pretty awesome in that setting.

I agree with this. There is no definition to the expression "dark metal" to make it worthy of using. Another example, I find, is "speed metal". While clearly defined by some there are multiple definitions and some clash quite heavily with eachother. When we speak of genres like black, death...

Not agreeing with you doesnt make a person full of shit - it him, in this case me, having a different opinion. Its a matter of personal taste and that is part of what the TS asked for in this thread.
