The haul thread

[spawn]

Rather than start a new haul thingo for each one, heres the official Metal Downunder haul thread, please add to it as you see fit.

Im so damn bored today.

Heres stuff ive got now from the last 2 weeks, or will be getting over the next 30 days (post office willing) as there are some shipments from amazon and ebay on the way, I had to split them up into seperate shipments as then I saved money because we have to pay import duty if it goes over 300 bucks (or somewhere near that, maybe its 400?) in one shipment, and I picked up most of the ones I have now at the cd store near me, but some came from ebay and amazon. I had some amazon vouchers too, so that helped as well, so I really didnt spend as much as it seems.

Dammit! Everyone left! HELLO, im BORED!

 

[Joe Salami]

There's no doubt about it, spawny. You ARE metal!

 

[spawn]

Well I was bound to have something going for me sooner or later

 

[Arcane]

That's one mighty impressive list there Spawn.

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Fucking hell Spawny you have alot of money to throw around! I guess thats a definite bonus to working full time and living with parents

I have no money, I wish I could spend that much on music!

And for fuck's sake.... the BAND NAME goes first before the title of the album!

 

[spawn]

Well, I dont drink either, or anything like that, that helps too

Its not Dokken by Back For The Attack, its Back For The Attack by Dokken! Whats wrong with you?

Very disappointed in the Skid Row one

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Nobody said "-" stands for "by" though. If it did it would just be "Back For The Attack by Dokken". That's where you're thinking wrong I think hahaha.

When you use "-" you put the artist first because you read the band name first because that's what the person reading will identify easier.

If "Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka" is listed first, then that's what grabs your attention. And it's better for "Nile" to grab your attention so you're like "ahhh he' got a Nile album, a Dokken album, a Ratt album, an In Flames album"... etc!

Personally when I'm reading a long list of albums like that, and I'm sure I speak for most other people, I wanna see what bands are there first and then if I'm interested in what album you got by that band I'll see what it is. And its quite annoying having to look for the band names at the end, they don't stick out!

Plus, its offputting because 99.99999% of other lists (because most people aren't stupid hahahah) are listed as Artist - Title and that's what you're used to reading.

Anyway, I thought you hated Nile?

 

[spawn]

Well in my posts - stands for by !

I do, Nile suck! ! But, the In The Beginning album is supposed to be very different, a lot slower, with more epicy parts/instrumental bits and different styled vocals, so I got that, they are demos and ep stuff from before they were signed, and I bought ATCONK just because it has Unas Slayer Of The Gods on it.

They still suck ass though !

Skid Row must get Sebastian back, write a great album and tour. There are no longer any other options.

Its just to the right! How goddamn lazy are you lot these days?

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

I know I'm not buying Thickskin. Everything I've read about it says most of the songs sound like a heavier version of Matchbox 20, Fuel, Googoo Dolls, etc... YUCK! Fuck that.

Well why don't you just put the artist on the left so its easy to skim down the list and all the band names are aligned nice and easy to read? Make things easier for everyone instead of protesting the way albums have always correctly been listed for some stupid reason.

Thats exactly what it is! A heavier Matchbox 20, Fuel and Goo Goo Dolls! I cant believe it. Can you? They used to kick SO much ass, I mean, sure, they might be happier now, but what good is happiness if you suck?

Im not protesting, you are the uni student remember?

 

[KoichCPA]

Who the fuck names a band Chinchilla?

small fluffy animals aren't metal.

 

[spawn]

Tasmanian Devils are pretty metal. Bats, they are as well.

 

[KoichCPA]

Your trying to justify that thing as tr00,grim and necr0.

BAH I think not.

 

[spawn]

No, I was just saying there ARE some tr00 grim and necro kvlt little fluffy animals. A Chinchilla, as you correctly pointed out, is not one of them however

 

[KoichCPA]

This guy is but.
