    Question to Borknagar members...

    OK youngsters, I am a really old guy who lurks quite a bit on this forum. I turn 48 years old next week. I was around and listening to Metal when the old Sabbath was young and cranking it out. I am a music fan of many varied tastes, and go through many different cycles. I've taken vacations...

    Visions From The Spiral Generator!!!

    Man, I'm playing VFTSG for the first time in a long time, and it sounds absolutely fucking great! I always loved it, but it's kicking my ass all over again. Definitely a great album, and sounds like a dear old friend. Do all yourself a favor, pull it out and play it again. The album is so...

    Eggheadbangers unite

    The Icelandic Sagas written by scribes over a 1000 years ago! The stories are very well written, and say a lot about the human condition, besides being a great history lesson in Viking lore. Peace, Ulf

    Closure

    Hah! I knew why somebody would want to know. Yesterday, I brought my CD into work, and ripped it to my computer here. Playing it today, I noticed that the track ended real fast, and it didn't sound right. The track didn't rip right. The copy on my computer is only 5:14. I need to bring my...

    'Damnation' review from SSMTB

    I think Chedsey is more concerned with pissing off Opeth fans rather than truly trying to be objective about the music. He loves to bait the fans, then watch them react. Personally, I think he is more boring and predictable than the music he rails against. :Smug: Peace, Ulf
