Wall of Mouths

I ‘ve been buying shitloads of stuff but today Ufomammut came in. Sweet psyched up doom from Italia.

I hate linkin park and the beatles, with a passion and a grudge to each breathing being that does like them.

I’d pick Kyuss. especially blues for the red sun always hammers with a heavy impact on my sanity. I must ad that QOTSA ar by far the best radio-rock band these days and they have been since day one. Did anybody ever take a shot at Hermano? They’ve also got some good stuff.

In heavy rotation for like forever dude:
Solace - The Black Black Get this, everybody, ASAP

Also:
End of level boss - Inside the difference Engine
Arkhon Infaustus - Orthodoxyn
Litmus - Planetfall
T? - Troublegum
Behemoth - Apostasy
No Mo Trevno - Demos

Super!

I recall leaving two gigs because I found them boring:

Admiral Freebee and Cult of Luna

This doesn’t imply they’re the worst livebands ever but I tend to leave bad gigs much earlier and forget about it.

Boards Of Canada, Autechre, Venetian Snares, and Aphex Twin are all personal faves of mine.

damn good taste you have. I might see VSnares and Autechre this weekend on the Dour festival. I might not as well. There’s about 200 acts to check out. Some of my fave dancemusic includes: Sickboy, BongRa, Enduser, Asian Dub Foundation and if I’m horny Basement Jaxx or Buscemi

I’ve heard that up in Suomi everyone is drooling over ‘hope’ it received very high marks in Terrorizer as well. I still need to be convinced though…

Most recently I’ve bought:

The Black Hand - Warmonger LP

Your God Is Dead - Sweet Blasphemy MCD

Orange Goblin - Healing through fire CD + DVD

Monster Magnet - Spine Of God LP (a fucking classic and I copped the original glitterhouse release)

Dying Fetus - Killing on adrenaline Colour LP (best death metal record released between “domination” and “Thelema 6”)

No Mo Trevno - Demo 2007

Hmm sounds very promising. I’m a pretty convinced Amo fan. They’re coming to Belgium in the autumn with Swallow the Sun and Insomnium. That’s one good package if there ever was one.

tonight I’m going to see The Hidden Hand, and I’ve just received an e-mail that it’s going to be for free.

Next up are Hypnos 69 and later Isis

fucking ad fucking verts have the power to ruin my wake up ritual every morning i am not drowsy enough so I notice em

don ‘t worry they’re not too bad, when listening to commercial radiostations any sugababes song is a spark in de darkness

Damian Jr Gong Marley

last week I bought his album “halfway tree” it won’t come out of my cd player for the summer I think

without reading any of the comments: I have one. do it. it was my first and I wear it with pride. (better so it won’t rub off)

People will refer to it as “the traffic sign” though.

tell me if you see the connection…

Nebula (Charged),
Gojira (from mars to sirius),
Clutch (mainly Beale street),
Antwerp Gipsy Ska Orchestra (MP3’s from their site: http://www.gipsyska.com, strongly advised to anybody in a party mood),
Leng T’Che (marasmus),
Spiritraiser (new demotracks from http://www.spiritraiser.com)

Yeah I’m (co)leading a competition, first fucking time in my life. Now I’ll have a wodka on Yeltsin!!

k-hole might refer to Ketamine: a horse tranq that some people use as party drugs. If your high on ketamine you’r in a k-hole. That’s how I interpreted it.

hmm I have my doubts I’d love to think that hairmetal’s revival will only start wiht Chinese Democracy but maybe it started with Hatecrew Deathroll or so. It’s too slick for me so I’ll just judge their superficial looks and not their talents. deal?

NAh I like Myspace. I don’t have to search for tourdates no more, bands send them around. that’s nice. Nobody holds a handgun to your head to coerce you into watching fucking hairdo’s. anyway add me I’m stevhan_ti in myspacecyberspace. pleaaase or I’ll post a blog about how selfcentered the wombles are.

I.didnt.mean.to.start.something…

Title: Go.See.Clutch!!!

For the Island folk it’s too late (allthough never to lat too reminisce) but them on the mainland. Go fucking see them. I was there last night and it rocked, you have no idea. This is such a great rockband. Still drooling.

great news. Hope the album doesn’t suck. Must say I kinda liked monolithic baby. It had a few good sing a long footstomping airguitar rockarolla’s. But classic Magnet it wasn’t. The fact that it contains two coversongs always worried me, let’s hope dave got enough time to chew on his ideas in detox so that we have a lot of originals that will stand the test of time.

well and if it sucks after all. too bad. We got Clutch, Hidden Hand, Fu Manchu that have already saved the year for yankee hard rock.

black sabbath, all four of ‘em also I’d say the surviving members of The Who and Led Zep

those bands shaped the music that makes me live worth living so nominating them for living legends is the least I can do.

I think the only thing internet is going to destroy is weak music. IN the long run this copying and spreading works purging. Because everybody gets to know and hear new bands everyone will want to see’em live. The ones that are any good will survive the ones that suck or are overhyped will fail. Too bad for the industry their milk cows are going to dry up. I think Mastodon might be a good example of how it’s going to be. These guys have been touring like crazy and delivering the goods every time no matter the size of the crowd. They have released stuff, diy,on small labels, on relapse and now on a major. This is the way majors will have to act: sign reliable bands if they want to keep mnaking some $$ not disposable milk cows (like trivium or so). T? is a bit a different game, that major milk cow dried up but they proved to be a raliable pulling ox for the fans, much respect is due.
On a different note, personally I prefer downloading an album, going out to see the band and by a shirt or something limited at the gig. This way I know my money goes to the band and I get to have much more of the experiences involved. Before I could only buy a CD and then my money was burned.
More recently, finally establishing a steady cashflow I start buying CDs or LP s that have been lingering around in some form of “stolen state”, very rewarding actually: I get the kick of having something new with the reassurement (that a word?) of it being good!

Me done.
cheers

Title: Yankees hit me

with their great rock bands

Good to great new albums by
- Hidden Hand
- Clutch (seeing them within 2 weeks)
- Fu Manchu
- Middian (former Yob, everybody needs some yob)

is it a conspiracy? Or have I totally overlooked the eurock bands that can put their foot next to these? Or is it a foreboding of the anti missile shield?

anything by Live, Radiohead or the Beatles makes me twitch irrationally

Title: T? Summer fests gossip thread

So what’s lowdown on this topic. Over here in Belgium first names for big hot shot summer festivals are seeping through. But where should our favourite lads play this summer? Or does anybody knows a little more then I do?
