hahahaha "nostalgia gore metal"

 

[NAD]

I vant to add Negura Bunget to my list o' black metal to get for the winter. I've been intrigued by them simply because they are from Romania, now I have a better incentive...

 

[Black Winter Day]

i could send you a song if you'd like a sample

 

[JayKeeley]

Remember when hardcore bands could be counted to produce great music? Well I don’t

Ha ha ha aha ahahahahahhaahahhahahhahhhhaa.......!

 

[JayKeeley]

I vant to add Negura Bunget to my list......

You vant to? vant? I mean, they might be from Transylvania but I don't think they speak like Vlad the Impaler, hehe.

My name is Count Dracula, I vant to saak yor bludd, muwahaha.

I have one Sick of it All album that is pretty decent. That's about it!

BWD, you can email to adrian@gingermasonry.com if you wanna... thanks man.

 

[NAD]

Heehee, I was wondering if anyone would catch that.

Hey, I'm a pretty cool CD trader aint I?

 

[J.]

NAD, if you're basing your entire knowledge of hardcore on one Sick of It All album, hardcore fans' antics (which is the most absurd thing EVER...not saying you're doing this) and whatever dross you reviewed, I'm sorry bud, but you're missin' out big time.

 

[Black Winter Day]

Hey, I'm a pretty cool CD trader aint I?

yeah dude, i had never even heard of them, just sort of accepted that trade on a whim. it was a good decision! thanks!

i have since downloaded I from their latest album. . . that is the one i am sending, NAD. i'm attaching it now and it is MASSIVE. . . sort of like my penis!

Hey man, if there was ever an album you didn't want to download, it's the lastest NB. Seriously beautiful packaging which I think you would love. Next time you go shopping, you might want to get it!

If you want the other NB albums at a good price, check out Demonic Horde: www.demonichorde.com. They do their utmost to support the band.

 

[Black Winter Day]

oh i will definitely be buying the album!

i downloaded LA MASQUERADE INFERNALE and burned it on cd, but ended up buying it a month later anyway. thanks for the link (i will order them sometime later, i just bought 3 from the end that will keep me from buying anything for a few weeks)

btw NAD, i couldn't get that file to attach. you don't happen to be on AIM do you?

 

[JayKeeley]

I'll be happy to send NAD a CD-R in the next promo batch shipment. In fact, I'll send him Maiastru Sfetnic and see if I can get a review out of him.

By the way, for anyone staying up for a while, I have a NEVERMORE interview on it's way to the site...just waiting for the graphics dept to get me "sorted out for e's and whizz".

 

[JayKeeley]

It's alive! *evil laughter*

 

[NAD]

Last time I signed on AIM was in '99, so I doubt my account is still active. I can wait for the CD-R, so that's cool man.

I know that I am hardly a hardcore expert, but the crap I have heard just sucks for the most part. Also, I have tried to show in both my hardcore reviews my lack of knowledge in the genre. Care to recommend any good bands?

[bloodfiredeath]

I like Sick of It All. Their first three albums are excellent. Other hardcore I like: Ringworm and Integrity.

 

[J.]

Integrity is pretty good. I need to investigate their back catalogue.

Sick of It All never really appealed to me. A Call to Arms was OK, but I tired of it real fast.
