Music

[EricH]

So I finally took your advice and checked out this music thread. No surprise though that there's not a single mention of any music I really listen to. Any metal/hardcore fans on the site at all? Anyone in their early-mid 30s that spent hour upon hour blaring Pantera, Tool, Deftones, VOD, Sepultura? Maybe some Machinehead, Soulfly, Hatebreed or Snot? Has to be someone out there. Maybe?

I spent many an hour blaring Pantera, Tool and Sepultura, actually, Prong as well, and plenty of old Metallica, along with a smattering of Anthrax, Slayer, Deftones, Testament and Megadeth. Also lots of Ministry.

Mostly what kills metal for me these days is the ridiculous cookie monster vocals, so I am more into stuff like Red Sparowes, Russian Circles, Jesu, Animals as Leaders, etc., along with any of Buckethead's forays into metal, of which there are many.

I saw Buckethead play with Primus at Ozzfest. Definitely a show I'd pay money to see again.

I also had lots of love for all of the "classic" metal bands. I had to laugh at your comment about cookie monster vocals because that rings true for me as well. It's a big part of why I don't listen as much as I used to though I am always on the lookout for something that will drag me back in. The closest I've come recently is a band called Periphery but even they have some grating vocal moments. Animals as Leaders has been recommended to me recently but I haven't heard of the rest that you listed. I will have to check them out!!

Fuck yeah!

If anyone here is going and wants to meet up, let me know. I'm a Fishbone fan from way back.


I guess since I am posting about music, Buckethead is also coming back to Lawrence, after taking a 3-year hiatus from touring:

Same deal, if you're from KC and want to car pool or something, hit me up. Needless to say, there will be a visit to Free State beforehand.
