I saw Rammstein Thursday night for the second time... as always they were excellent and the show production values were spot on, however it was just such a shame that the majority of the second half of the show was a repeat of their last UK tour However, we did get the drummer dressed in drag whipping the guys and then Til f**king the keyboardist up the ass with a strap on and then shooting white stuff all of the audience from it. Oh and the giant cock shooting foam was back too! LOL!

Does melodic hardcore count?...

Yes! Metal is like Jordan's fanny - anything goes.

Okay cool! (I think)

So any other Defeater, Touche Amore fans?

Now I don't want to pigeonhole here, but what I'm talking about would probably be called 'metalcore' in the current climate. I'll give some bands as an example:

3 Inches Of Blood, Alexisonfire, All That Remains, As I Lay Dying, Atreyu, Avenged Sevenfold, Beloved, The Bled, Boy Sets Fire, Bullet For My Valentine, Chevelle, Dead Poetic, Deftones, Djevara, The Esoteric, Every Time I Die, Fightstar, Finch, From First To Last, Funeral For A Friend, Hawthorne Heights, Hell Is For Heroes, Hopesfall, In Flames, Mastodon, Mendeed, Norma Jean, Poison The Well, Reuben, Rise Against, Saosin, Silverstein, Slipknot, Thrice, Tool, Trivium, Underoath, The Used, Zao.

I'm aware that there are some that fall into the 'hardcore' bracket, and Slipknot and Deftones are technically nu metal, but it's all just there as an example.

Any takers? Any suggestions to broaden and improve my already long musical horizons in this respect?

When I was young in the 1990's (Oh how I wish it was still the 1990's!) folks just liked heavy music, sure, there was a couple of sub genres knocking about (hardcore, punk, grunge) but by and large we ignored this pigeonholing & just enjoyed good albums and rocking gigs. By that token, yes I am (into metal) and have seen pretty much everyone worth seeing.I consider Children of Bodom to be the best metal band alive in the world today. I miss SYL & the best gig I was ever at was Anthrax, January 96 in the Glasgow Garage (downgraded from the Barrowlands due to lack of ticket sales, the Garage was heaving tho) would have been on the Stomp 442 tour. A massively under rated album. Donnington of the same year was also pretty special. I still wish it was still the 90's.

Musically they were both great but I wouldn't want it to still be the '80s as I wouldn't be able to get served in pubs or have sex with women and stuff.

Don't worry, it still is as far as I'm concerned.

Anyway, just heard the smashing and unexpected news that there'll be a new Deftones album out in september/october.

The streets were paved with gold and it never rained.

I could go on, but you get the point.

At a twist possibly... I'll maybe give them a wee check out on YouTube for nostalgia's sake though, just to refresh my memory you understand.

I can't remember if my first one was an Alba, might have been a Bush. It kind of looked like this.....



But I'm pretty sure it wasn't a Sanyo.

God, that brings back the memories! I think too had an Alba one. I would still totally rock a walkman these days, given half the chance! I find them endlessly cool.
