Poland: Crionics... well, their first 3 full lengths all rule pretty hard. But their latest EP is eeehhhhhh. Vesania is another good mention. Riverside - love this band. Disperse - holy fucking teenage guitar goddamn prodigy. Amazing band. Russia: Forest Stream, one of my favorite bands evar. The Mo...

Any time I can jump on a rare or limited pressing, I usually do. I had to have it for my collection. This brings up an interesting point. I'm a record nerd to the core and can be a sucker for all the pre-order, limited edition, heavyweight, colored, blah, blah, blah...but in the last year I've gott...

Just bought Paragon Belial - Hordes of the Darklands. It's decent, but I mostly wanted it because of its limited pressing. Any time I can jump on a rare or limited pressing, I usually do. I had to have it for my collection.

Alright, this is the last post I'm gonna make about my music and my demo. Figured I would attempt to make SOME sort of last impression on Atlanta before I left. I'm being stationed at Fort Campbell, so I'm moving out of Georgia. So, I thought one last shameless plug for my demo wouldn't hurt before ...

The cleans are quite awesome. The heavy tone isn't too bad either. I didn't really have much time to dial in something close to my liking, but I had it sounding pretty decent. It'll take some more experimentation (and a cab), but I'll get one in. I've been looking at cabs, and good ones aren't too e...

I've been listening to a lot of Jeff Loomis - Zero Order Phase. His playing on that album frightens me, frankly.

I finally bought an actual amp. I bought a Marshall 3210 Lead 100 MOSFET head. From my research, it's one of the first Marshall solid state amps, made in the mid '80s. Sounds fantastic for clean tones, and a bit fuzzy for distortion but it can blast. The amp sounds great in conjunction with a good d...

Mid July? I'll be home by then, for a month. I should come catch a show before I ship off to Fort Campbell, eh?

Abigail Williams - In The Absence of Light. I'm gonna catch hell on here for that, so here's a pre-emptive "fuck yourself, I like it, it's pretty good".

Been listening to Sigur Ros - Von, too. I'm just now getting into this band. Since I'm such a huge sucker for big atmosphere, I like it.

Hey Vhyle, what's the deal with NJ series gear. When I was a kid I had three early-mid 80s NJs: a black Warlock bass, a yellow (ugh) Bich and a white Mockingbird. Motherfuckers sounded like ass and never stayed in tune. I always thought they were bottom of the barrel. You seem to dig yours though. ...
