What a crazy blizzard we had in February. Almost fully melted by now.

LOL

Put conditioner on your nuts in the shower after a hot day. Thank me later.

Don't get sunburn though

Sunshine..... On my nutsack, makes me happy.

FEEL THEE ENDLESS PAIN!!!!!!

Well not every band, but it was in vogue for sure.

There was a time there in the '70's when every band was giving prog a go too.

I meant more that Mirage is a mixed record but their other stuff is for sure pure-on prog.

I think most prog rock guys count Camel as trve lol

Not true "prog" maybe but Camel: Mirage is an essential pick for me. Also Nektar: A Tab in the Ocean

I found something good for everybody to rip apart.

Glad to see they're being continued. I'll get to the power metal polls sometime this month.

A new Thrash Metal poll is up https://forcesofsteel.net/forums/thread-...2#pid53922

A Momentary Lapse Of Reason is my favorite PF album, I'm pretty sure I'm alone on that score.

Pink Floyd are an odd band. their earlier material was pure Psychedelia while beginning with getting David Gilmore is when they turned into a Progressive Rock band. Animals is my favorite out of their entire discography.

Pink Floyd is like the one band from that era I could never get into lol

I love Animals by Pink Floyd.

Well I just pulled the trigger on some more prog stuff on discogs; should be fun

Agreed on the Gentle Giant, need some of that too.

I definitely need to give them a go as well as some other 70s british stuff like Gentle Giant

Van der Graaf Generator, give them a go. As far as prog goes that is.

Florida sucks!

The Nice is a good band, it was the band that Keith Emerson was in before ELP.

70s Yes, ELP, and Peter Gabriel Era Genesis are the shit

A similar offshoot is symphonic progressive rock. Yes, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, and Genesis are considered the most notable acts in this sound. For Japan, I really dig Outer Limits, Providence (although they can also be considered neo-progressive rock), and Teru's Symphonia.

One of the many forms of progressive music. It has its British origins from the 1970s. Started discovering Japanese bands in this style such as Novela, Gerard, and Black Page. Very keyboard-led sound in general that works to build Gothic (capitalized to be specific), epic atmospheres. Usual albums have less than six songs.

I have no idea what that this.

I've been listening to more neo-progressive rock lately.

It's pretty interesting. Has some neat concepts.

Never watched it but usually I hate battle shounen

Anyone like My Hero Academia?

I wasn't here when that happened, but thanks for letting me know. I just take it that the server had to be restarted after applying an update or to fix something real quick.

Yeah I started having problems just a few minutes after posting that...

Failed to load for me twice, loaded on the third attempt just now.

Probably some script kiddie ddosing; seems fine now though

FoS is very slow today

lmao

Dude, you should form a tech death band called Dudetech lol!

Well I better keep my eyes peeled

Not sure, I think they've toured at least a couple of times. I'd say they'll likely do it again

Ulcerate are pretty damn good.

Hah, do they come to the states often though? I can't get exactly just fly to Australia

I've seen Ulcerate live twice. Dafuq bro? Get on the level.

I've never heard either, ha,ha.

lol

I haven't heard much from them. I bet you never heard of Atheist.

Why did it take me until 2019 to finally listen to ulcerate

Accuser is amazing!

Good night off to bed

Charley Browne should be a more well known heavy metal band!

BURY THE AXE!

It's real too! Men really want to be that.

"Paypig" is a funny term lol!

What about they want bud?

I wanna write a parody of U.D.O.'s They Want War and I'll call it They Want Beer.

John Dies At The End > Grammy's

The Grammy's are so bad that not even pop fans should care about them

See this goes to show why I stayed away from the metal scene completely. It's a parody of itself.

Grammy's never catered to metal.

Metalheads make me laugh. They are pissed Vinnie Paul was snubbed from the In Memoriam video. Since when did metalheads give that much of a fuck?

Necrot is good. Check them out!

re: the previous Riot conversation; almost all of the DiMeo albums are highly enjoyable

Anyone like early Septic Flesh?

Never checked out Necrot.

Nice, have fun

Tour*

The thing that sucks though is that Immolation is replacing CC on the last few dates of the tour on the east coast. I've already seen CC, so I wish Immo was the headliner for the entire tout.

Not to shit talk CC; they're fun live too. But Necrot and BI are phenomenal top tier live DM bands. Have yet to see MA live, but I'm not a huge fan of the Tucker era, and last they played LA, they played all Tucker era material. I hope they play a couple songs of Altars.

I can't wait to go to Decibel Tour on the 22nd. Fucking Blood Incantation, Necrot, Morbid Angel, and Canibal Corpse. Blood Incantation and Necrot especially are 2 of my favorite bands in record and studio. Seen Necrot twice and BI once, and they're both gonna blow CC out of the water

Plenty. Nightbreaker, The Brethren of the Long House, Inishmore, Sons of Society, Through the Storm, and Army of One. All highly enjoyable for their different flavors, but I'd say that Inishmore sticks out a bit more for consistency.

Which albums was he on Painkiller ?

The Mike DiMeo era doesn't get enough appreciation. Great stuff, especially if you long for the early Rainbow sound.

The first 2 Riot albums are the best, IMO

Any more of that and you'll be barred from the fest.

I fight for my sound!

If you are a false, don't entry!

If you have a dream, stand up and fight!

I am here to party!

Came HereTo Rock?

Undergang is a good Danish death metal band

They are the old reissues. I imported them from Japan.

The Upcoming Terror is one of the greatest thrash albums ever.

Are the Running Wild CDs part of a new series of reissues? I still I only have hard copies of Gates, Branded, and Death.

There are a few that I plan on keeping. I just feel that the rest could go to a proper household.

I can't ever sell mine. Their mere presence is powerful. Especially my rare ones such as, Raging Steel original copy.

Very soon, I will be putting up my list of vinyl for sale, as well as my asking prices.

I just realized I posted fag instead of flag of foundation in my latest post.

I need more vinyls and a record player. I miss listening to None So Vile on the record. Amazing album.

Gargos from Killer Instinct is metal!

Great stuff

Death or Glory, Pile of Skulls, and Black Hand Inn.

Which ones did you get?

Really happy with my Japanese Running Wild CDs.

Nevermind, I got rooted instead. Heatwave has fucked off now. Back to normal Sydney scheduling.

This heatwave can get rooted! Testicle soup is not comfortable.

eBay Bucks saves my wallet!

I'll be glad when this heatwave is over. It has been roasting like a furnace for the past couple of days.

blotted science is badass as fuck

The sadus demos I bought should finally arrive today. Can't wait.
