Your last purchase??

[Matt]

i'm going to see phantom of the opera tonight at the Fox.

 

[Pharaoh]

I just put an order in for a couple of imports - a band called EDENBRIDGE.
Anyone familiar with this band? Short sound clips sound promising to me.

 

[Taliwakker]

I have two Edenbridge albums and they are pretty crap....generic.

last purchase was

Beautiful Sin-The Unexpected....2 parts Masterplan/2 parts Pagan's Mind and 1 part ballsy chick singer....not bad...not great. JVL is an awesome guitar player though.

 

[RobbM]

Edenbridge is just another Nightwish (yawn)..BUT there guitar players play Jems and PJM's so thats a plus..its not bad, but it could be better...

BOOKS:
Stephen Hawking - A Brief History of Time
Dante - The Inferno

I was looking for Faust by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, but they didnt have any copies in stock.

A Brief History of Time is cool, but Brian Greene's "The Elegant Universe" and "Fabric of the Cosmos" are better. Dante's Inferno is sweet, I read it like 4 times in high school (but the rest of The Divine Comedy is surprisingly boring). And Faust is probably the next thing I'm reading. You have good taste!

 

[Horus]

Thank you. I actually bought A Brief History of Time for my school summer reading project. It was the most interesting book on the list, so I said, "Why the hell not?"

Edenbridge is great stuff. Not sure what album you purchased but I've got them all and they all are very good. Of course you will get the predictable comparisons to Nightwish which, if you actually listen more than once, will probably quickly dismiss. Great purchase.

 

[RobbM]

better guitar playing at least...

it is totally crap. In fact MTV did a special on them last night.

 

[powerfromhell]

i still dont get what all the hype is about those guys..

 

[RobbM]

it is totally crap. In fact MTV did a special on them last night.

Well that tells you right there what there all about. I went to there website, and listened to about 3 seconds of there music. uke:

More no talent MTV pop junk...

 

[Matt]

yeah, but it kind of reminds me of 70's stuff.....except they dont have talent.

 

[RobbM]

yeah, its that retro pop rock junk...

 

[War_Blade]

exactly, you know you are crap when mtv wants to play your videos...

 

[RobbM]

So I guess it cool now to copy bands from the 70's, or at least from before the MTV audience was born. A few more years and we just might get some Hairband Metal back...

 

[War_Blade]

then my life will be complete!!!!


i can start a hairmetal band and tease my hair (well i do that anyways) but i can do it more often!!! Then they might start selling leopard skin spandex again!!! (im getting exicted for no reason, i know) WWWOOOOOTTTT!!!!

 

[RobbM]

Yeah, but if the trend continues, you know the music is going to suck, just like this crap..A poor ripoff of how things used to be..

 

[War_Blade]

yea, but i will be 80s hairmetal before the trend even starts, so my music will pwn.

trust me, i painted a whole wall in my room red black and white eddie van halen stripes with a big gold vh in the middle! With all of the metal around me, there is no way my music can suck.

 

[RobbM]

I didn't say your music, I said music in general..
