I've been listening to them everyday on the way to the gym. I'd love to see them

[Hazard]

Igi..... I just checked their tour schedule. They're going to be 20 minutes from where I'm staying in Florida on Dec 4th! I'll be at your place by then tho lol. Just missing them by a few days :-(

[almostgone]

I think Machine Head and Down would be one of the top combos IMHO. Another pairing I would like to see would.be Stuck Mojo and Crowbar.

Dammit. I just checked around too and nothing great playing while you're here. Not sure the ladies would appreciate us taking off for a night anyway. Although I may do it if there was a great show lol.

Love crowbar. Great band. Never saw Pantera, closest was this summer seeing Hellyeah with Vinnie Paul, so I'd love to see Down with Phil Anselmo. Someone told me they put on a great show too.

Yeah I was listening to list behind the wall and dream warriors from back for the attack. All there stuff was pretty good back in the 80's

Hell yeah man. Timeless and classic. Some of the first metal I listened to.

The way I started listening to metal is kind of funny. My mother used to be super religious when I was a kid, and would have to sneak to listen to music or watch TV because my mother thought it was all evil. She let me listen to old stuff so I did get some good exposure to stuff like Johnny Cash, which I'm surprised she did, but most of what I was allowed to listen to, I hated.

I had a buddy at school with like 7 brothers, so he'd take their tapes all the time and I'd trade him tapes for a couple lunches or something.

So I'd get stuff like AC/DC, Danzig, Metallica, Aerosmith and some other stuff. My mother would sometimes find my tapes and she's take them and I'd get in trouble. So I'd ask my friend for more tapes and told him to get me the hardest, most evil sh*t he could get, halfway because I wanted my mother to think I was possessed when she found them, and also because I loved the sound. So I got stuff like Anthrax and Slayer, and it was all over from there. I was hooked.

[Igifuno]

Stone Sour is pretty awesome. Corey Taylor is a genius in my book. Their new stuff straight outta Burbank (part of the Burbank trilogy) is a bunch of diverse covers from metal, thrash and punk.. All classic stuff. Highly recommend a listen.

Can't forget them for sure. Saw Exodus and Testament last year and it was nothing short of legendary.

Cory Taylor is the lead singer for Slipknot, so this is his other band. It's heavy, but not at all like Slipknot. Lots of mid tempo stuff too and not so heavy.

Ever heard of Kyuss? They're pretty good too and been around since the late 80s. Kind of reminds me of a mix between 70s southern rock and more modern acid rock.

Kyuss is a regular in my rotation. Karma to Burn as well.

Top 10 on LM right now.

[Igifuno]

Pretty cool that 3 of the big 4 are in the current top 10.

[DCI]

Love stone sour too igi man corey taylor is like phil anselmo imo. He has just this skill to make any band sound cool with a different sound yet interesting.

Def gonna try and get the lads to go to machinehead just to hear davidian live will make my year haha.

Some bruce springsten for me last night not metal at all but the girl I was with likes him some decent songs but a very weirdly recorded music.

what album should I get? Gonna grab this today stone sour

[DCI]

I think they are all pretty decent but for me when I listen to a new band I always buy their first album and move on from there as it always generally sets the tone for their music.

[Bio-Active]

Listening to seether right now. Not very heavy but sounds good with my over the ear beets

I like it.. That's some good stoner metal right there!! Never heard of them until now. Been around for a while too. Thanks.

AG, not sure if you missed the post a couple pages back, but I recommended Paradise Lost for you. I really think you'd like them. Check out their song (no hope in sight). Seems like it's up your alley. I'm curious, let me know!
