What are your 2006 Metal predictions?

[General Zod]

Looking forward to new discs by:

Symphony X
Iced Earth
Zero Hour
Evergrey
Vanden Plas
Angra
Agalloch
Isis
Pyramaze
Tad Morose
Wolverine

Albums that will suck:

"Operation: Mindcrime II". This CD will suck more suckage that all the sucking combined in the history of all that sucked.

I need to hear some Pyramaze.

You really think Angra will get a new one out this year? I have my doubts about Iced Earth as well. Ripper Owens has been working on some new side project.

Symphony X and Vanden Plas are long overdue, I'll give you that.

2006 Metal Predictions:

- Footbalm will get drunk and headbang a lot. There will be pics.
- Erik will get drunk and burn down his school for not having a goodband nearby
- M00se will become a heavy methul lumberjack.
- Tully will get drunk with hot babes until he meets an all female band looking for a single male member. The apocalypse will start 616 days after they release their first album.
- Nate's farm will prosper.
- Papa Josh will get hit by a bus. There will be much rejoicing.

This seems to be everyone's most anticipated 2006 release...maybe with Lombardo back in the fold, they'll actually write an album that doesn't suck massive quantities of shit.

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

yeah, we're all crossing our fingers for slayer.

Yes, you do.

You really think Angra will get a new one out this year?

Don't know. I think they're done touring. I would think they get an album out by year's end or by the end of Q1 07.

I have my doubts about Iced Earth as well. Ripper Owens has been working on some new side project.

Didn't Ripper do everything he needed to do for "Glorious Burden" in a week? Jon's been working on this disc for a while. I wouldn't be surprised if it came out before 07.

Symphony X and Vanden Plas are long overdue, I'll give you that.

I think both discs are just about done.

I think no one on this forum in their right mind gives a crap.

And isn't that just sad? These guys use to be such monsters.

i think all of us still do ... even if to just to make fun of the disaster

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I guess I'd be curious to hear it, but I'm done paying for Metallica albums. And I'm the jackass who bought St. Anger blind.

I will only listen to it if I hear good things mentioned from reliable sources. otherwise I won't even deign to listen to a sample MP3 after listening to St.Anger.

ugh, remember the hype of "return to form" St. Anger had ... from big press.

I think that hype made it an even bigger dissapointment

I don't listen to big press. I ignore everything they say. It's usually crap, hence my actual belief in that opeth ad erik made

I bought it cause it was metallica. I'm still raging about it too.

Wow. The last Metallica CD I bought blind was the "Black" album.

Agalloch and Devin Townsend will release potentially career defining albums, Katatonia will put out another great one, and this forum will continue to be a source of amusement and enlightenment for all involved.

 

[JayKeeley]

An Iron Maiden album with new and improved artwork.
