The #1 atrocity in my metal lifetime, which I won't diatribe again, will always be Tattooed Millionaire for me. Bruce Dickinson will forever owe childhood me 15 bucks for that shit, and if I ever get a chance to meet him I plan to ask him for it. I was chatting about that with a buddy today...

So I've been thinking of getting a mountain bike for my winter commutes, because riding on uneven snow/ice with 35 mm tires sucks. On the other hand, the combination of slush, sanding and road salt during winter is murder for the drivetrain. So I've been considering something like this...

Amirite?

I'll take, "Incredibly Sick guitars ruined by terrible headstocks" for $1083.23 Alex...

One of their better songs in a long time, heavier and more legitimately rock than the last handful of songs I've heard from them.

On those weird South American blogs that have all the really obscure bands no one's ever heard. The vast majority of it sucked, especially in the Death and Thrash departments, which was a shame. But this... This is one of the weirdest things you will ever hear. Kind of Marillion/Asia/Yes...

His new look does not kick 100% of anyone's ass. :(

Just recorded a new track today while I was off work. Mix advice is greatly appreciated. Hopefully a few of you will enjoy this one. Actually managed a solo on it as well but my lead playing is terrible so excuse that! https://soundcloud.com/nick-collins-7/brutaldm-1

I bought a JPM100 P3 from eBay the other day. It had shitty quality photos in the listing, and I now know why; it's in a bit of a state. I'll try to fix it up a bit, but I wonder if this is a bit of a lost cause, without piling a lot of money into it. The trem's in fairly bad shape, the frets...

Go! My top candidate always seems to be Annihilator. Jeff Waters is so damn good. Seriously sick music, but man, they pick the most mediocore singers with god awful lyrics. It's this great band, with tons of groove, tight riffs, killer solo & then....that f'n singer. It's the weak link that...

Seriously, what the fuck was that? :lol:

...for really enjoying this song? Discuss how many of my waffles are cunted.

Both guitars will have a black headstock. If you kind of squint your eyes it makes the photoshop look a little bit less bad. Also imagine it having a scalloped neck (although that wouldn't really be visible from this angle)

JACKSON SOLOIST CUSTOM NECK THRU METALLIC BLUE RARE 1987 | eBay :jj: Mother. Of. God. I have like 1.3k of stupid shit sitting around (that has been sitting around since September :lol:) and now I feel horrible for slacking on selling it. :lol:

My RG7620 must have superior tones to Quigs's JP7, because the CL/LF 7 pickups really aren't bad at all in my guitar. They're quite soft in the top end, but that doesn't affect the clarity. I can see why the djent crowd loves 'em. The only problem is they're too close to the strings, even with...

ITT: terrible band names and re-recorded proggy goodness (updated!) http://soundcloud.com/fredbaty/no-escape-2011 http://soundcloud.com/fredbaty/no-escape-2011-mix-2 I first recorded this just almost 2 years ago, and have been meaning to re-do it pretty much ever since. One of my favourite...

"Teargarden by Kaleidyscope" And probably the same boring shit as the last one. Smashing Pumpkins
