[redfly]

Nice, thanks for the info on that!

 

[Neptune]

Yeah,I would love it if they finished the album first.Although touring is where the money's at nowadays.

A new album comes by mid-year. Sometimes it doesn’t go according to the plan but I think this is gonna happen.

This brings some hope, as Alex normally doesn't speak idly so to say. However, this had been said back in December and things could have changed since then.

Now that I have some sort of link. Kinda hope the "first three albums" thing isn't true, because I havent gotten to see any Dark Roots material live yet.

 

[Neptune]

As much as that sounds cool,I think it's been done to death.Now LOW and onward era is what they OWE YOU:hotjump:

 

[redfly]

Eh yeah, those have been done to death. Time to give us some LOW and later.

At last some news about this possible tour. I just don't get the long wait to officially make it public though. Most tour announcements give fans at minimum 3 to 4 months lead time. This tour is supposedly starting in 8 weeks and it's still not announced. Is that realistically enough time to get the word out?

 

[anomynous]

It's getting officially announced Monday or Tuesday

 

[redfly]

I've never heard of the third band?

 

[anomynous]

They're managed by Chuck.

 

[Neptune]

I've never heard of shattered sun either,I think 'll go check them out now.

All of The Legacy & The New Order, plus songs off Practice

No Montreal date...that totally sucks considering they didn't come to Montreal for the first Dark Roots of Thrash tour.

 

[redfly]

I would have thought Montreal would always be on the list.

 

[redfly]

I'm so tired of reading descriptions of bands. What the fuck is a " Texas melodic metal assailants SHATTERED SUN. " ?!

 

[Neptune]

I know,I know.Still haven't checked them out,are they any good?

 

[anomynous]

No, they're a 2005-era Shadows Fall/God Forbid ripoff

 

[Neptune]

That's what I thought,not that these other new wave of thrash bands are reinventing the wheel,but why not bring out HATCHET or HAVOK!

 

[Pascal]

They need to bring Sylosis out on tour. They are outstanding. I can't stop listening to their last two albums.

As for Shattered Sun, they are good musicians but IMO they don't fit this bill. Any other band would have made more sense. Revocation would have been killer.
