On the cd the only thing I can say sounds like the vocals is like...somebody's blowing wind and growling at the same time...it has a "windy" quality.David said:Well, on the album, they're low as fuck, and don't really blend with the music. Live, it flowed right in with the music. I don't know if they've had their stuff badly mixed or what, they sound awesome live, and put on one hell of a show.
Ozzfest 06 was better than expected...

Unholy Alliance next Saturday for me
SYL always rules live.
He should of kept the 7-inline headstock.

Can anyone explain the advantage in the middle pickup as opposed to the neck pickup? I could see it brightening up the sound, but then why bother with EMGs?
You not a big fan of the cockstock? That being said...the Horizon headstock is an awesome 7-string headstock, it fits it so well, looks cool reversed too.Shannon said:
As far as middle humbuckers, I like them. They're kinda creamy like the neck pickup but without all the muddiness associated with that position. They're not really like brutal like the bridge. Probably more like the neck position, but very nice.
Nope, but apparently you are.D-EJ915 said:
Oh c'mon....you set yourself up for that one.
I still can't get over the spirit fingers thing...what the fuck is that asswipes problem? fuck atreyu...It's bad enough having your band named after a fucking character in the neverending story...that guy needs a serious elbow planted square on his face.

I'd go to see Unearth, for sure.

Hey, if Meshuggah can name an album after the main antagonist in the neverending story, why not name a band after a supporting character?
Bah, I'm all for tapping solos and whatnot, but it's better to learn the parts before recording.
hell yeah...they kicked my ass! I'm a huge Unearth fan, but it was cool to hear a few bands that I haven't heard much of.
??? I meant the lead singer actually said to the crowd "gimme your spirit fingers" I almost sharted!

hrmmm. ozzfest doesn't hit philly til August... So i have yet to have any idea what i'm in for. THe fact of the matter is i'm only vaguely familiar with most of the acts if at all. But i've heard a lot about a number of them, especially SYL. I just ordered an album of theirs and Townsend solo album from Amazon. I just get the impression it's gonna be something I'll like, but who knows.
Why's everyone bash on SOAD? I mean I'm all for hating on Atreyu and whatnot, but System's a real different band doing their own unique thing. Even if you don't like them, can't you at least respect the fact that they've managed to be a huge mainstream success without sounding like anything else that's popular right now? Or at least enjoy their sense of humor.
C'monnnn. They're cool dudes
so wait.
Just erm summarize which acts i absolutely must see.
