that festival lineup is awful.

[Incarnate]

Yeah tops for Raven, I talk to Jimmy like twice a week. He's stoked. Good for them.

But he has Steve Buschemi as his avatar. Which is always a winner no matter which way you slice it.

 

[Southy]

Doesn't stop the badness...unless he IS Steve Buschemi

that festival lineup is awful.

Yeah ok dude, sorry, what was the last festival you played at...

Try to remember the emphasis here; an Aussie band playing in Germany. Whether you like them or the bands they're performing with, doesn't matter at all, its still a good thing for Australian Metal.

 

[mattt]

Australian metal is dead.

 

[Lord Tim]

^^ that's one of the most ignorant statements I've heard in a long while, dude.

 

[mattt]

I beg to differ.

 

[Lord Tim]

Then you're allowed to be wrong.

Seriously, have you had a look at the metal scene lately since you stopped doing your metal zine? There's amazing bands of all metal subgenres doing big things all over the world, more so than any other time in the past.

Just because you don't like them doesn't mean the scene is doing badly, it just means you don't like them, simple as that.

Now if you're just trolling for a reaction then yep - there you go, you got me, but if you're actually serious then you need to have a really hard look at what the metal bands in this country are actually doing now before shooting off such ill-informed statements as that one.

 

[mattt]

So you ban me from your forum because I don't agree with you?

 

[Wenda]

*sigh* As he is in Melbourne right now, I'll answer that. I'll PM you.
