I would love to hear Al's thoughts on all of this, however I know there is 0% chance he will come here again.

I'm sure we'll see it later tonightWonder how long it will take for Sumerian to drop Al?
And who are you again?? Why do you think its perfectly fine to throw your hat in the ring, then point at others and bitch?
Your doing excatly what your accusing him of doing.
Theres only 1 thing you can do. Be responsible for your own behavior. If you dont like seeing something ugly said, dont follow it up by doing it yourself and act like you have a leg to stand on.
I swear, kids these days![]()
and how long it will take for Strandberg to drop him.........
And who the fuck are you calling "kid?"![]()

Robert Percy said:The burning the house down thing is correct, I was told it by a friend of the person who was on the recieving end of that threat. The person who was threatened was the frontman of a British metalcore band and the ex-frontman of a really well known British thrash/speed metal type band.
Al Mu'Min said:Incorrect on all counts. Hearsay, I gather, is your idea of substantial evidence to make such claims? You appear far too often on internet I must add too, dispel yourself for your own good. My qualms with my former bandmates are very little to do with my alleged dangerous nature and more to do with musical direction. Yes, whilst I concede to my ardent detractors that I'm not tightest of all players live I should add the songs on the album are quite difficult to pull off in a live context and I would honestly prefer a little support and positivity amongst my 'metal' brethren. I wish you all a good day. Evidently my day has been ruined by this loss but I wish not for myself not to wallow in self-doubt and sorrow.
Well, it was ment to be one of those light, jovial insults that you shoot at your buddy, and not some raging insane insult that i usually throw out to all living creatures on a minute by minute basis![]()
just because bulb or anyone for that matter has a lot of influence doesnt mean that he cant fully express himself, get serious are you really trying to tell him what to do?
im glad alex left because he is very talented and is suited for much greater stuff!
Whilst I don't know everything about the situation that's surrounded these past few months, and im sure plenty will disagree with me, I do feel like he should have been cut a little slack in the live department.
I feel that so many people jumped down Al's throat when they seen that he was having difficulty performing his music on his FIRST TOUR with the band because he was bigged up to be 'the next Tosin'. He was destined to fail the moment these statements started spreading. Sure, he's making mistakes but they are emphasized so much more when you have all these crazy expectations. As many of you know, there are a lot of key factors that are involved when performing live other than technical ability, a lot of which improve over time as live experience increases.
I'm not saying its not his own fault too though, I mean shooting that Strandberg commercial and getting signed before even playing a proper bunch of shows with your new lineup... More and more expectations. But come on now, if you managed to score a deal with Sumerian AND Strandberg early into your bands career, would you take it? Of course you would, cause that's one lucky opportunity you may not get again.
He's a great songwriter though IMO, something you can not 'fake' or 'cheat'.hopefully he will be back in the future with a better perspective.
