    New Ozzy song

    Surprised there's no thread about it. I happen to like it a lot, it's very reminiscent of Ozzmosis and Perry Mason, which is a good sign. I'm pretty sure his voice is edited to hell and back but who cares. It's a simple yet efficient ozzy song which sounds better than a lot of his more recent...

    New Wireless Day

    I got tired of having to deal with a guitar cable at home, especially because the roborock complained about it a lot, so I bought myself a cheapo wireless system for exclusive use at home. It's as simple as they get: on/off button, charge indicator, ON/OFF indicator (blinks: not paired, solid...

    NGD: I wanted a SG, at last.

    So I started browsing and of course ended up with a strat. Was just too pretty and with a 2 knob layout to boot. Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster FMT. Bought it from Max's guitar in the Netherlands, from which I had bought before, zero issues. Guitar plays great, sounds great, looks...

    It's depressing

    I just listened to Ride the Ligthning while finishing some work at home and it's still one of the best records ever 40 years after the fact. :( I miss that "holy shit" factor, I almost never get that feeling with new music. The only band that does that kind of thing to me nowadays is...

    Lifestyle, diminishing returns and changes in personal income conundrum.

    Hello there. First, I want to make clear this is not a topic on bragging about how much you earn, but on how you feel you're the target of scams despite being able to afford them. The story so far: I was born in a well-off family, say upper middle-class, the kind that can go to an exotic...

    Tascam model 12/16/24: any users ?

    I'm considering buying one of these for some old school workflow, are they any good ? I'm looking for good consumer grade performance, it's not going to be used in any kind of professional setting, it's just for my hobby. The appeal of it is the computerless approach *but* it can still be used...

    I was there

    At Hellfest, Steve Vai joined for "Still of the night". Coverdale's voice is shot, Aldridge looks like he can drum into his 90'es. Not the best live rendition or anything, but seeing those in 2022 is something special. What's your "I was there" moment ?

    I'm looking for an old youtube video

    It was a japanese guy crossdressing (you didn't see his face, only white shirt and miniskirt) who played covers, I think he did Hot for Teacher but can't remember any other. Videos are around 10 years old. If anybody can point me in the right direction, my weeb group would be grateful.

    [OK Boomer] Show your HIFI setup.

    Most people on this site are musicians, professional or, like me, just hobbyists. We all like gear. (If you don't get out, now, before you're contaminated) I'd assume we we all listen to music. Since smartphones pics won't be very sexy, let's have a hifi porn topic. Yes, I sort of wanna pimp my...

    Is there somewhere a registry of songs classed per BPM ?

    I have taken up rowing again in the gym, and it's annoying when your random music jumps all over the place in terms of rythm. I'd like to be able to, say, enter "220BPM" and have a list of songs. Does that DB exist anywhere ? (I stream direct from my NAS, not off a commercial service) Oh, and if...

    New Maiden is up

    Pretty decent, a strong smith/dickinson signature (ie, no gallops), and Bruce isn't forcing his voice to go up there and force the use of autotune on the high notes, which is a blessing. Hiw voice is still awasome on a lower register so not spoiling it by evertune stints is a bonus. (That was...

    [Hifi] Looking for advice on affordable but decent speakers to listen to rock and metal.

    Not sure this would be the right forum and search function didn't send me a relevant topic so I'm creating one. As the happy owner of a new flat (yay) with a 25€ used Toshiba stereo speakers included (boo) I'm looking to invest in a decent sound system. I'll likely go vintage and get some "blue"...

    Guitar storage in apartments, helppp !

    So, I moved two weeks ago into a new apartment I bought. I still have, despite having sold a lot of stuff, a sizeable collection: I don't want to: -Store them on the walls. Then I have to dust like a demon every two weeks. -Store them out of the cases overall. Because then I need space for...

    Building a recording studio from scratch

    With all the changes in my personal situation, the pandemic thing, I'm going to endup moving out of Paris to work in peasant territory in a smaller city to follow a new job. Since I got comfortable earnings saved from my last job, I'm buying either a flat in said smaller city (Le Mans, that's...

    Long time no NGD - Solar V1.6D LTD

    Been waiting for a non red, non black, evertune Solar V forever. The potential opponent would have been an evertuned warlock without abalone. Solar won, obvisouly, as the contender didn't even start the race, the solar is going to be a limited run, I like all woody/natural colors, I hadn't...

    2020 souvenir thread: post pictures of your empty city here.

    Let's hope that this thing will only happen once so let's keep souvenirs. It's a unique opportunity to see emtpy places that are usually packed all the time... but travel is discouraged and, frankly, a bad idea at the moment. So let's share. As always, be responsible when going outside, don't...

    What filters would you want in a guitar e-commerce site ?

    Hello, As a part of my training curriculum (get some training during confinement, guys ! ) I have to do a woocommerce site, so I of course decided to do a guitar shop. I thought it'd be a good idea to ask people, what filter would you like to use, that's not readily available on the usual...

    WTB WTB ZOOM 9002

    In decent shape, and inside the EU if possible just to avoid VAT paperwork and delivery man hassle. 220V transformer, no 110 unless it's *really* cheap. Just buying this for nostalgia's sake. PM me here if you have something.
