I'm a fan of Maylene and the Sons of Disaster. a bit of southern rock AND metal mixed together believe it or not.

GLK=brocore.

Call me old, but WTF is metalcore? MEtal and hardcore? I still listen to some Slayer, Propain every once in awhile.

They whine about "old farts" but aren't willing to admit that we listen to the same music. They just haven't ever heard of the bands we listened to in the eighties who were every bit as hard as the music they listen to now. Back then they were paving new ground, now they are doing the same thing over and over for nothing but money. At least back then our bands were doing it for the drugs and chicks.

i was lookiing at metal-something-or-other-weekly and one of the guys assterted that he felt that the "new" or rising metal musicians were being held back by all of the legends (read: AC/DC, Ozzy, Slayer...etc) And I couldnt help but thinking how much these legends have dragged the new comers along on ridiculously long tours and gotten them in magazines etc... So granted no one shreds like slayer...and there albumn that came ou this year...wasnt that bad. But how can you argue that no one appreciates the legends when the legends are still headlining all of the tours?

But i enjoy watching the current scene unfold in columbia where i can go watch some really strange metal bands play some not particularly great metal but hey its real and its cheap.

as far as moving forward i am particularly addicted to a band called "isabelles gift" www.bloodhoundgang.com their music revolves around the perenial topics including drugs, sex, booze, drogs, and rock n roll. I find this band to be particularly pleasing because while having sold out they did buy their soul back and refuse label input on their last cd. (American Idle - 2006) This band brings a blend of Metal, Punk, and country to the table.Think AC/DC shaking hands with Lynard Skynard.

PS. deepfreeze you just described A LOT of bands makes me think of korn though...

i wouldn't say that all of us don't listen to that "good ol bands" i personally like listening to AC/DC, slayer, etc. i just like the sounds that some of the new bands are comming with. i'll always have a place in my heart for deftones. and as for fun concerts? GWAR!!!!!!!!! lol

my setup is better than yours......i hope.....

I love Ministry. I was listening to them today at PBC. I have to say the new metal that I have heard from my friends sounds kinda gay and sounds like everyone else.

If you're looking for some newmetalcore type stuff. check out Drop Dead, Gorgeous. intense with a LOT of distortion etc.
