Anyone here like Devin Townsend?

He never ceases to amaze me (warning, not metal)

I came back to see if anyone said anything about the link I posted, and the thread is on page 2, I didn't mean to kill it! Devin Townsend it metal as f**k, just not that clip.

I watched it, then looked at some others, but not my thing

I watched some Metallica from Rock in Rio this morning, and have come to the conclusion that they really need to revamp their setlist

He was first mentioned in post #9 of this thread

Ah yeah I read a few more comments after that, I like your comment 'You really can't pin him down, can you?' pretty much sums him up.

Musical genius, in my humble opinion

Hi, only just seen this thread so hello to all.
Anyone here going to Planet Rockstock in December at all?

How about some Iron Claw, dubbed by Classic Rock as the lost pioneers of heavy metal?

The Balck Dahlia Murder - Flies

Ace band.

Been intending to check them out for a while. Not bad, for an American band. Possibly because they actually sound European influenced

Yeah, they certainly have more of a european death metal feel about them. They could easily go down the route of a lot of similar American bands and throw lots of breakdowns and such in. If they did, I think they'd be huge. Thankfully, they don't and are excellent.

This may be the greatest Metal video of all time

pity the song is utter shite though

I like it

Just looked them up. Another US band that sounds European

I'm not a musician. You're going to have to tell me what a breakdown is & why Americans do it but Europeans don't

I like this new one a lot Bloody Hammers – What’s Haunting You

What shall we do with the drunken sailor

for all you old punks out there, something to fume over http://www.buzzfeed.com/alexnaidus/p...t-punk-is-dead

This old punk is mostly fuming at the page not loading

loading for me ok

It has now. Eventually. Ach, Punk's been dead for decades. Pretty much since it went mainstream, sometime in 1978. I refuse to acknowledge that American Hardcore nonsense (Black Flag etc) as they seemed to miss the point entirely.

Had to laugh at the 1D in Ramones T-shirts though. I was in New Look with my youngest on Sunday & they had Ramones Ts on a rack. I wondered what that was about. I was also pretty darn sure I was the only person in the shop who'd actually seen them perform. (they were sh!t btw)

I've seen people at work with Ramones/Guns N Roses/Rolling Stones t-shirts that they've obviously bought from Primark. I'm sure they would be able to name one song at the very most. Frustrating. Nirvana have just joined this list of band t-shirts being sold in Primark/H&M...etc.

Ach don't worry yourself...it's just a t shirt

Yeah, my daughter wanted a GnR one. I asked her to name two songs. She couldn't, so refused to buy her one.

I just find it a bit frustrating. Especially considering if I'd have worn one of those t-shirts at school, I'd get abuse for it.
