Calling all Iced Earth Fans

Must be me. I don't see the problem. This is an Iced Earth board or simply a Metal board indeed. I sing for a metal band and happen to be an Iced Earth fan also and my band has been compared (believe it or not) to Iced Earth in a few reviews hence the link in ... i wouldn't go on a dimmu borgir site and promote cause there's no connection in style etc. I'm not selling anything other than the fact that there's some *free* downloads and *some* people might like our stuff. More bands are signing to small labels these days and need to self promote..fact of life.. but hey if people are going to get upset.. ;)
 
There are a shitload of bands here. As well as a shitload of forums. Forums that are for this kind of thing. I dont want to go to the In Flames board and see 15 threads about peoples bands and their own demos and shit. I go there to read about In Flames.
 
Hmm .. i think we'll have to agree to disagree on this one :Smug: i think the UK metal crowd is a bit more supportive than the US perhaps (less bands over here)
and you're right a lot of bands have demo's out but not quite as many have an album release coming out on a label, small though it is.
 
I'm kind of feeling the difference now actually :p .. and i wasn't even trying to get into the bigger better thing at all you misconstrude my intention. Smaller label= more work to be done by the band tis all..... who's your mates band on Sony btw do i know them?? Sony don't really look at metal bands too much over here, COF being the exception
 
Hmm, I think that if you can't get support on your own and have to go to a damn forum to get it, it's a bit sad...I mean, they make websites to put your band out in the open. USE THEM!
 
Dude, i don't think you understand the idea of promotion. thankyou for your views but i don't really care for your opinion... It would have taken you less time to skip the subject totally.

Hails and thanks for allowing me to show support for true metal :worship: you deserve the praise for playing the real metal. :worship: Keep the faith and stay true as you are, By the way all you other people in forums here who bitch and moan about bands promoting themselves in messageboards and anywhere they can, I say to them this, THE UNDERGROUND SCENE IS WHERE TRUE METAL THRIVES AND SURVIVES....THE WEB IS WHERE BRAND NEW METAL ARTISTS TAKE THEIR SOUND AND HAVE THE CHANCE TO BE HEARD AND SEEN IN PLACES THEY NORMALLY WOULD NEVER BE HEARD FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER...THE DAYS OF DEMOS AND CASSETTE TAPES BEING TRADED HAVE GIVEN WAY TO BEING PROMOTED ON THE WORLD WIDE METAL WEB....ONCE ICED EARTH WAS A CLUB BAND CALLED PURGATORY WITH JON SCHAFFER LIVING OUT OF HIS CAR AND WORKING DAY LABOR FOR MONEY TO LIVE AND KEEP THE DREAM OF ICED EARTH AND METAL ALIVE. Support The Underground Scene...where the future of metal lives.....

Hail, Rob! That's kick-ass - thanks from all at Intense for the page and the support; as Sean said in *that* thread, supporting each other and keeping the word of metal alive is what the scene is all about to us.

I've added a link to your site on our links page - keep up the great work!

Yours in metal ,

Group called Never. Last I heard from my bro they were on there but I havent spoken to him in a long time. I know Noise was interested in the for awhile. They have a second album out.

Hey Metal Rob. I dont care if Schaffer was eating out of garbage cans and living in dog houses. That isnt the issue. did ya ever see Jon at the In flames board promoting his stuff? Scuse me if I'm wrong but isnt there a fucking forum here for bands who are unsigned? Get my point now?
 
Hail Metal Rob, he who carries the spirit of Metal :headbang: He is a true METAL WARRIOR and A WARRIOR OF FREE SPEECH ... Death to false metal ...METAL WILL NEVER DIE:cool: The ignorant shall be cast aside ..... :Smug:
 
Hey Iced in Flames, man you really need to get a sense of humour :loco: :p all you seem to do is complain...lighten up dude..life is too short. Rob's done a great page for my band INTENSE and he really has the metal spirit (Yes! he does) and i wanted to congragulate him in an appropriate way. And guess what? I thought it would probably wind you up :D just harmless fun though and you can never get too much metal if you have a metal heart...:p
