schaffer is a type of LEADER ... extreme guy; wheter or not he is a good guitar player or not .. well, I don´t know cause I like their music due to matts vox, mostly ... Schaffers personality - seems he´s an arrogant bastard! as long as the sound´s ok I have no real problem with this
IEs over all product sounds good for me .. but - as I already stated sometimes before - don´t compare Nevermore with IE ... as Ledmag already posted in here, too!

I actually wasnt comparing this time..i was letting the originator see my view of IE, and i didnt feel like editing out all the VS stuff.

he´s a very tough and determined guy with clear opinions
I talked to him a few month´s ago and he was an affable man

Jon Schaffer is surely the least talented arrogant egomaniacal bastard in metal. Has anyone heard the last few albums?; it seems all Mr Ego can do is recycle his own riffs, even his songwriting is getting stale. The only good thing on the last album was Digiorgio bass, and well he apparently couldnt stand Mr. Ego.
I think Ledmag is right, in that Schaffer doesnt have a better lead guitarist cause they would get all the glory. Was poor mr Ego not given much attention as a child, so to get attention he has to stab his friends in the back. And I do sort of like Iced Earth too.

Your right about that back stabbing shit. Matt should break away and form his own band. I would like to think that if he got good musicians, his band would blow Jon off the face of the planet.
MATT IS THE LIFE OF IE. nuff said

Yes he is a dick indeed!
Not only about all these you say, but mainly because he had gods Richard Christie (drums) and S.DiGiorgio on his last album... and they did nothing!!
He probably busted their balls about not doing their "usual stuff". But what was the purpose in having them in the first place??

i would grant js some credibility if he could come up with a new riff some time. . . and that shit about no lead playing -- it's just cause he can't play lead worth a damn and a lead guitarist would steal his spotlight too much. . .
yes that's so true!!
I mean, he is a great rythm guitarist, we have to be fair about that, but instead of getting a great lead guitarist to elevate the music, he just gets this 20 something year old bald guy, Larry Tarnowsky or something... I don't have anything against him of course, I would also love to play in a big metal band, but hey... I would that if I actually though I was good enough...

I think he got the 2 gods of metal to play on the cd so it would sell better.
If i were one of those 2 guys, i would not have done it. I refuse to be in a ONE MAN band. The bass player i had a few yrs back wanted to run the band, and we booted him. A band should be more than just one person, it should be every member.
Matt should not only leave the band, but he should KICK JONS ASS ON HIS WAY OUT!

Yeah, without Matt, IE is really a mediocre band. His vocals are why they are still around, not Jon's songwriting. I like every IE album to some degree, but I do agree that he is getting less and less creative with his riffs. If Matt's vox weren't there, and they didn't have Christy on drums, I doubt I'd be listening to the new stuff. Too bad Jon doesn't realize that Matt isn't expendable. If they had kept their old vocalist, they'd be disbanded by now.

Yes, indeed
I think that the best thing would be to return to the "burnt offerings" sound. I think it's their best work, really dark and complex, not like Dark Saga which is child's play...
And god damn it, LET CHRISTY DO HIS THING!!!!

Yea....i like Iced Earth a lot ....but again, it's mainly because of Barlow's singing....he has a very unique voice ....i also like the music , however Shaffer is being a Dickhead if he says that Barlow is replacable. IMO Barlow is the only thing that sets IE a lot apart from other bands.
