If you don't plan to use your rolling papers, feel free to send them to me.

Good points, ALL!!
I've had some friends do the Scion shows and are in talks with the EP thing. They, in no way, feel they are being a corporate puppet, or that they are selling out, or that thier fans are getting square cars shoved down there throats.. The shows were the best ones they've ever done, no sign od Scion anywhere at the shows, and interviews that were being done, they were encouraged to not even mention Scion! The EP (if they do it) will not give up rights or publishing, they pay for the session, as well as pay the band for the session, and the shit goes out for free?
But these guys that I've had discussions with are so pissed, cuz they feel its ruining their scene.. I really don't get it. I don't think there as been a Scion basement show in West Oakland, so I really don't know how it affects them.. They argued that they want to keep there underground scene exclusive, and support DIY to the fullest, and not take anything that was offered with corp backing regardless.. I said Bullshit. they would take it if it was offered, but it won't be offered cuz their bands are not that good... No response was uttered.. lol!

There's a female fronted Japanese anime power metal band who have an album promo for journalists that comes with a Hamster Wheel with band logos and will play the album if the hamster starts running on it. Who on earth would want one of those?

if I had the st vitus rolling papers I would roll up some killer Js & then send them to Mordy because I never have the time to get lifted. I am a failed stoner, sad lol

I genuinely sometimes think being a bit more of a stoner would be a good thing for me.

How many people still have their Burzum lighter that came with "Aske"?

Ironically I haven't been stoned since before I started listening to a lot of stoner rock/metal the past several years. I preferred eating my herb, and miss the brownie lady who used to haunt Wicker Park.

For someone who very rarely indulges, I listen to fuckton of music that is usually associated with getting stoned.

Btw, Adrien... your Ihsahn interview story was hilarious. Sorry that you had to go through that, but it makes for a funny tale now that you both could laugh about it.

Anyone need Saint Vitus vinyl should catch one of these shows. All the Wino Vitus on sale.
I'm afraid this might be a disappointing tour kickoff. Will call had maybe 20 names (as opposed to 3 or 4 pages for the COC date at the same venue) and the upstairs is roped off. Club must not think they'll even hit half capacity. Shame on Dallas.
― EZ Snappin, Saturday, 26 May 2012 01:15 (twelve years ago) link
Okay, I'm going to come right out and say it: I don't really love that new COC record. Songs just aren't there.
― The Devil's Panini Machine (J3ff T.), Saturday, 26 May 2012 01:34 (twelve years ago) link
They were great live, but I mostly agree with you. Some good ideas, a few good cuts, but too long and too half-baked.
― EZ Snappin, Saturday, 26 May 2012 01:42 (twelve years ago) link
rRide The Lightning sounds amazing over a good PA. Thrashin' to myself in the corner waiting for the show to start. Last 4 band bill kicked off at 8; no sign of openers on this 4 band show. So I'm just spamming the thread from my phone.

haha that's a great story. he seems like an interesting guy for sure--maybe i will finally check out his solo stuff.

Adrien & Jeff - nice pieces by you both today. Kudos.
The two opening bands weren't bad. I think they're both local, but need to do some searching to confirm. Waiting on Dixie Witch, then Vitus.
Thankfully, the crowd has picked up quite a bit. Might have been 40 people for openers, but now I'd guess a couple of hundred are milling about.

I smoked weed last night. It was fucking horrible. This is why I'm into "stoner" music - it's my dope substitute.
Use the papers though, I've had novelty band papers before and they just sit round in your flat making you feel depressed about the way your life's turned out. I mean why am the sort of middle aged man who owns Wiz Khalifa [sp] rolling papers?

Scumfest tonight. Not really metal, but apparently Swedish death metallers are fucking nuts about Mob 47. A bit of bother in the pit, but otherwise a good evening.

So apparently Morbid Angel were contractually obligated to play an all-oldies set at Maryland DeathFest? I find that kinda shameful and weak. I mean, I don't like more than a couple of songs off Illud Divinum Insanus, but to bring bands in purely to serve as nostalgia acts is not my idea of metal awesomeness.

well they could have got marilyn manson in if they wanted sub 90s style goth industrirock.

that is weird, but in fairness to the festival organizers, people would have burned down the fucking building if they'd had to hear some Illud. Death metal heads don't just hate that album. They haaaaaaaate it.

Going back to something talked about earlier: Enabler broke up on my porch on their last tour! The guy who used to play with Fall Out Boy (he actually mentioned that in the 1 short conversation I had with him and seemed to think it was a really amusing anecdote) called another guy in the band fat and all the cool guys quit. It was a big hooplah

That Coffinworm isn't really new, its a vinyl reissue of their 2010 demos with a couple other songs tacked on. There's a lot of overlap with their last album.
Their virgin offering, a self-released three-track demo, entitled Great Bringer of Night, demanded attention. In this initial offering COFFINWORM had given volcanic birth to a wretched, heaving slab of noxious, blackened death sludge of the lowest order, one that eventually led to their signing with Profound Lore and invitations to perform a number of high-profile live actions across the country. Hellish, depraved, and heavy as a neutron hammer, Coffinworm have truly created a monster.
The Flenser is pleased to be dragging this filthy gem, Great Bringer of Night, out into the sunlight to give it the treatment it so richly deserves. This deluxe version will include two additional unreleased recordings (five tracks total) from the same recording sessions in all their raw glory, and comes graced with the gorgeous artwork of Bryan Proteau (Lycus, Obolus) and a finely-tuned mastering job from James Plotkin (Khanate).
