[Draugen]

Rabenkind,read the rules!

hehe, I was wondering how long it would take until someone broke the rules. But actually, when the thread becomes longer than 1 page, people tend to just go with the flow if you know what I mean

Speaking of long threads, anyone else but me who has large problems with "The now playing thread"? It's so damn long that my f**king browser can't show the last page...

 

[Väino]

at the moment:
Moonsorrow
Vintersorg
Draconian
old Anathema
Melancholy

 

[Väinämöisen Viikate]

Yes,i have problems too,it takes 458 years before it opens and sometimes it wont open at all.
Should somebody open new "The now playing thread" thread?

The rules are:
* You cannot mention Vintersorg/Otyg/Borknagar or any other Mr. V-related band. This is just to make things a bit more interesting, since I assume that most people here like the just mentioned bands.
* ONE band per entry. The list shouldn't NOT be anything like:
1. Iron Maiden/Helloween/Sonata Arctica
2. Vikingarna/Arvingarna/Matz Bladhs etc.
I think you get the picture...

2. Astrofaes
3. Averse Sefira

5. Nokturnal Mortum
