Since they're defunct and Ian Kenny's other band sucks, this is the closest thing we get with some prog/metal vibe to it. Would love a whole album like this TBH

For those who are fans of the classic Boss HM-2 sound, there has been much talk for some time now about how likely it is Boss will release a Waza Craft version of the pedal. Numerous people have contacted / requested this from Boss, and recently someone started an online petition happening at...

Saw Matt's post about George Lynch in the George Lynch thread. While I like George Lynch, and I think Back for the Attack and Under Lock and Key are great records, I certainly agree that his fans are insufferable. So, opine your choices below. Obvious (Meshuggah, etc) as well as not obvious. Not...

...if you like the recessed variety, this looks pretty cool: https://reverb.com/item/24981313-tone-vise-pitch-shifter-for-floyd-rose-tremolos-black Our own Mr. Crooks is using one of these to stabilize his Floyd to drop to D on that 7 string Rhoads he doesn't post enough pictures of...

I hardly meet anyone who digs them but I absolutely adore this band. Shame I found them after David's death. For those who don't know them:

Speaking of drums and drummers..anyone else into the drumming of Aquiles Priester? I had never heard of him but one of his videos popped in my YouTube feed many months ago and I was blown away. I haven't heard anyone play drums in the style of Portnoy during his prime DT years but this guy's...

Recent Spotify discovery of mine, though I can't for the life of me remember how I stumbled on them. They're a contemporary Swedish... folk rock, maybe, band - I'd call them melancholy Americana, except they're not American - very much in the vein of Opeth's Damnation. I think this stuff is awesome.

Was on a Stuck Mojo (I know there's a couple Rich Ward fans on here) thing today and in revisiting the whole mid-90s groove thing, Prong popped up in my feed and I remembered digging them as a teenager. Obviously the big song: Apparently they're still at it. This is a track from last year...

Dave Wintz is dusting off some of the old equipment, and building NOS guitars again. I don't believe there will be any runs anymore, even of a dozen guitars, so they won't be in stores or anything (I believe it's a 'been there, done that' thing). He's only doing the ones he wants to do, and...

Because if you dig stuff like Saturnus and Skepticism, this rules: https://banefulgenesisrecords.bandcamp.com/album/until-the-end

Joined this project a few months ago, this is the first song with a full lineup. Really looking forward to seeing where this project goes, the bassist is an absolute beast (you can hear at 1:58). The drums are unfortunately programmed, working on getting those recorded for a full EP soon, but we...

I know a lot of you dudes didn't take too kindly to my talk about politics and extreme music... So... On a darker note... INQUISITION. I went to see these blokes at Bloodstock as I was with one of my best friends, who adores them and had gone to the fest almost exclusively for this band. I...

Hammerfall is my 2nd favorite band behind judas priest. If i could sing like Joacim I'd be topping the charts for pop right now. Curious to see who else loves this band.

Apologies if this has been posted already or if it is old news but I saw various things about these in amongst the NAMM news headlines and thought I'd check them out. I know there are quite a few Elixir fans here (myself included), they sound interesting. By the sounds of it from the blurb I'm...

Well I am :) Seem they "found lost Demos/Recordings" from 1986 and decided to ReMix and ReMaster them. I still listen frequently all 3 Records actually, love their last one but I think my fav is Into the Mirror Black:metal:

Saw this in FB it can peek the interest in some: Captain Anderton: "These are due to arrive later this week - at £349 (reduced from £690!), I expect we'll sell out quickly. Get your pre order in now if you fancy one."...

This was on my "to get" list for quite a while, since it's a post Lääz Rockit project with several members of Lääz Rockit (one of the greatest thrash bands of all time). Not as good as Laaz Rockit, but I know a lot of you here enjoy this kind of stuff.
