    Correlating Nature and Music

    They way you think of modes is nice, but remember that there are countless scales and modes all with different feels and different moods. Try some of the modes of the harmonic and melodic minor scales to find new toys to play with, and to inspire different licks and sounds. Remember also that...

    How to get a better phrasing

    If what a musician plays is their voice, I've always thought of phrasing as a musician's accent. I'll leave the nitty gritty details and theory expertise to people who can explain it better, but experiment with different ways to play a note, and different ways of accenting it. Try coming up with...

    Jason Richardson playing XIV/Behold at NAMM

    First time this BoO song has been played live...by an ex-band member :lol: Bravo Jason. As much as I still love BoO, this goes to show how much they lost when they got rid of him. P.S. I heard rumours that Jason and the band were on (relatively) amicable terms...any truth to that anyone?

    New LEVIATHAN track, "All Tongues Toward" from upcoming LP, "Scar Sighted"

    It's just immaturity. I guess these guys might just be a little upset that this man has other priorities in his life in addition to pleasing his fans.

    Ex-MEGADETH Guitarist MARTY FRIEDMAN: People Overuse The Phrase 'Play With Feeling'

    For what it's worth, I think that music as a whole is raw emotion, in any form. I mean people can convery meaning from any type of music. Just because one piece bores one person to death, doesn't mean it does the same for everyone. As silly as it sounds I've always thought it is quite insulting...

    Music with positive, encouraging lyrics?

    As Anthony himself said - "it's about friendship" Also, most power metal has something rather uplifting about it. Sabaton makes me feel like I could conquer the world, and Iced Earth makes me want to fight injustice, even if it feels like ideas are repeated in their musics.

    Sonisphere Festival cancelled. Again.

    Oh no, who would've thought this would happen? To be honest I wasn't looking to go this year but it must suck for anyone who was looking forward to it :(

    Rings of saturn's lucas mann's guitar ability described by recentlydeparted guitarist

    For ROS fans it's disappointing when they go to see new material live after enjoying an album and find that because of one member's apathy they will go home without hearing or seeing anything they wanted to. Presumably ROS fans want to see the band members pull of the crazy technical stuff live...
