Playlouder - Music is the Network

So are there any people who use this site other than myself who appreciate the virtues of some £$%&£$%ing \M/etal?

If so please let me know what forthcoming releases are whetting your grindstone or tickling your beard.

I feel I've fallen out the loop since I gave up buying Terrorizer (because of all the long words).

I am only aware of The Itchyologist(sp?) by Giant Squid, which is due in January I think, and the new Amon Amarth, which'll no doubt be like the old Amon Amarth (but that's a good thing).

Divulge if you know!

New Dragonforce out 25th August! You can hear a new track on their myspace. Its okay, I don't know what else they can do with their unique formula.

I overheard pauls listening to Dragonforce this morning...

Gravetemple are playing this thursday at camden underworld if you're into doom

not at ULU as previously stated

they're bit of a doom supergroup

i like it when you play me some mighty svenhunter

what?

No mention of Gorgoroth? I'm truly disappointed!

I feel I mention Gorgoroth a bit too often, actually. Are they planning a new release?

Not to my knowledge; I just needed a story involving sheeps' heads and naked people smeared in blood to brighten up my day.

Metal has become it's own parody. About time the parents kick it out of the basement.

Kristy I invite you to check out that video for 'metal becoming its own parody' proof

Old school metal daftness brought right up to date! Monsters and gore? Check! Ironic sexism and pouting babes? Check! True refreshment in an age of 'worthy', wholefood-on-the-outside, junk-food-on-the-inside, beardy shoe-gazing bands.

Also noted the Eisenstein visual references - perfect!

there we go. Original research. Ahem
