    DIY drum kit help!

    Hi! I saw a few videos from DIY drum kits, and they sound ok for practicing for beginners who doesn't have money for a real kit. Maybe I give a try to drumming, but for the same reasons, I don't want to invest too much money on it. I found these stiff cardboard barrels at my workplace, I'm...

    Maybe 7 strings just aren't for me?

    My first 7 string was a fabulous Samick SKT777. It was big, heavy, with a wide neck. But I didn't give a damn, because I wanted to play Morbid Angel... My secound seven was an Aria MAC50v7. It had soo small frets that my pro friend couldn't do leads or sweep picking on it, and he could it...

    The recording part (I'm a bad guitarist), and the "how should it be? Is it good enough?" part! 😅

    Make guitar playing fun again?

    I started writing and EP and it's like work. I don't really enjoy it, only the end results. Sometimes I play other bands songs, sometimes my songs, but that's it. What do you do when you feel burned out or bored to play the guitar? I'm not a big fan of collecting gear and guitars as toys, but...

    Please describe this drum tone, want to find similar plugin! :)

    Hi there! I'm hunting for a while a drum plugin that sounds something like this, but can't find any. I'm totally noob when it comes to drums and drum plugins. How would you describe this? Tight, clicky? Most death metal kits doesn't sound this clean and tights, but modern kits are the other...

    What do you use for songwriting, amp or amp sim?

    If you have both, amp+cab and amp sim on your computer, what do you use when you write songs or just want to come up with a new idea, riff? I have both, and i really like to use my amp with my 4x12 cab, but in the same time, ear fatigue is a real issue. And also it's easier for me with my...

    What makes an album cover good or bad in your eyes?

    The good: - unique idea - matches the music - It's hand made - has true artistic, aesthetic qualities - somehow I prefer certain color patterns (black,red,orange,yellow) The bad: - photoshop copy+past jobs - AI artworks - contains mutilated woman, pentagram, inverted cross, zombies...

    EP vs LP release length question.

    Hi there! I have a few questions. 1. Would you prefer if a band releases 3-5 song EPs in every year, or wait for an album length material (7-10 song) for 2-3 years? 2. Do you know any metal bands, projects that only or mostly released EPs? 3. What's your music listening habits? Pick random...

    Anyone performed or saw one-man band metal show?

    Hi! I'm just curious, and also thinking about what IF in the far future I would like to show my music to new people in live settings. Examples: Both of them had the second guitar in the backing track. Which maybe makes a bit harder for the listeners to hear what's played live. What was...

    Is there such thing as a "conservative metal" band?

    Life was never fair and doesn't care about equality. Humans are fucked up by nature. I don't know, I see families falling apart, misentropy, riseing mental illness, isolation, and "smart" people in power saying they can't define what is a woman, and people more worried about small puppies then...

    Is there such thing as a "conservative metal" band?

    I know that "christian metal" exists, but I would be more interested in bands who sing about traditional values without religious themes. I'm quit a conservative person (not in a political way), and I'm kinda bored with these "rebelious/the world is yours/I'm the center of the universe". So...
