IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: Please everyone read this!

[Pabla]

Hawk, it takes a real man to own up and be so honest! We do not think less of you for your music taste, but rather more for the truth! I hope you never leave us, there is always space in our hearts and in this forum!

I know I have not been regular for the last few months, but I always come back and this place is never forgotten.

 

[Hawk]

You've let the music take you where it will. So be it. We all change. Tastes change. I used to hate broccoli. Now I like it a lot. Excellent choice!

Thanks my friend.

Too bad Hawk you was cool moderator. Well I think Wyvener if anyone can do this job. Cheers

Thank you. I have a lot of trust in Wyvern. great to see I am not the only one.

Pity to see you leave Hawk, you were fair and respectful in the time you were moderator, I'm sure Wyvern will uphold these qualities and hope you don't become a stranger now.

I will visit this place now and then. Perhaps I will even participate more than before.

Great post for the last time as "Moderator." I totally understand your decision. You rock my Brother and I appreciate the fact that you feel moderator duties would be best handled by someone else. I also think you made a very wise decision with your nomination. In many ways, when I think of UMOS, I think of Brother Vern and his dedication to this foum.
If you disappear from this forum.... I know your real name, address and phone number. I will send one of my Dutch henchmen to kick your ass !! Ha ha ha. In all seriousness, I hope you will stick around. We all love you here and UMOS would not be the same without you.

I never thought of Hawk as a moderator. He must have had a pretty easy job with the people who frequent here. I hope he sticks around. His metal knowledge and experience is one of the driving forces behind this board. Job well done, Hawk! Enjoy your retirement!!

 

[sixxswine]

Adios Hawk. I'll miss you brother.
I think it's great that you're keeping up with the times and aren't afraid to listen to modern metal.

Hawk is really a GMDer and not a Old Schooler?

And to think I felt like the odd man out in this forum for liking Black Metal and such... :zombie:

Anyways Hawk was a good Mod.... always fair unlike Mod's in other forums on this site... I'm sure Wyv will do just as good a job...

Thanks Bryant. I am looking forward to meeting your henchmen if they have your sense of humor I know I will have a good laugh before they finish me of.

I will Matt don't worry about that.

Thanks for the compliments buddy. I do enjoy my retirement. A lazy bastard like me loves hanging around and doing nothing.

Adios Hawk. I'll miss you brother.

I can't seem to help it. I love discovering new bands and new directions in the metal scene.

I know most don't care for it but which BM bands and/or albums do you like?

Hawk, I never really had the chance to meet you but Rolando always speaks great things about you. Based on your heartfelt statement, he was right. Your honesty is to be admired and I understand completely why it is important to be true to yourself and your principles. Just like yourself, my work on my website and the radio station, forces me to be in touch with latest stuff out there. I really don't have a problem with that because there is great material out there for everyone to enjoy. Still, I don't think I will ever stop being Old School. NOW is a great time to be a metalhead but when you have lived some of the evolution of our beloved genre, there's something special about that. In that sense, we are all Old School.

Take care, bro and much success to you in the future!

Elite - never heard of them

I also like Kampfar - never heard of them as well

Emperor -I worship them.. saw them live in NYC this past summer.

Immortal - another one i worship...

Especially their album 'At The Heart Of Winter' -This is my fave album along with Sons of Darkness.. I recently got Pure Holocaust but i need it to grow on me...

And

Taake - This is one I'm interested in and have on my to buy CD list but haven't run across the CD's in NYC yet.. and i hate buying online


I just started to discover this genre and I am taking it one step at the time.
Band by band. No Rush. - Let me know... i can recommend some bands and albums..

As for Death Metal... i'm not a big fan of the genre but do want to explore it more... the one band i do worship is Bloodbath though and i highly recommend their albums... I also like Behemoth... if you want a excellent Death/Black metal combo then no doubt you should get Belphegor's albums... excellent excellent band... but in terms of other DM bands i plan to explore Nile, Cannibal Corpse, Death, etc. Of the bands you named I have and like November's Doom though I would consider them more a Doom/Death metal combo then strictly Death...

You write English very well! Maybe Rolando could hire you to translate for him here on UMOS.
