That's why I love SW. Although I despise festivals and never go to them, it does provide us with an awesome array of sidewaves to choose from.

Went to the Cathedral/Paradise Lost sidewave down here in Melbourne, was great to see PL again and catch Cathedral on their final tour. Also heard a rumour from another attendee that Autopsy might be heading down under some time soo, f**k i hope thats true!

Hi guys, Probably should have posted this last week. Anyway, A mate of mine is the new JJ The Racket host. Have a listen Tuesdays from 10. 2nd show tonight. He knows his shit inside out and has a huge passion for heavy music.

I'm so disappointed Iced Earth gave Brisbane a miss. Hopefully the shows they play in Sydney and Melbourne are well attended and they came back and hit Brisbane as well next time.

I'll be at Amon Amarth for sure, and been looking forward to a DD headlining tour for a while so I'll most likley get to that one as well.

Any good tours coming up anyone's heard of?

New Parkway Drive DVD comes out next month, should be good.

 

[sydraider]

Depends what you are into but there is cannible corpse, dark funeral and steel panther, they are the bigger names I know of that are touring later in the year.

 

[Twizzle]

Steel Panther and Metal should not be used in the same sentence imo.

 

[sydraider]

Fair enough. I like them though, good fun band.

Nice, i've been a casual Cannibal Corpse fan. Love their albums the bleeding and vile. It got a bit too repitive for me after that. Would love to see them live though, their amazing musicians.

Didn't they get banned from Australia before their last tour?

 

[firechild]

I'm a bit late in this thread but favourite bands are:

Tool.............Metallica, Lamb of God, Korn, Rammstein, Disturbed, Hatebreed.

I don't particularly dislike any genre, I listen to bits and pieces of everything. Can appreciate some old Metal (Guns n Roses, early Metallica), death metal (don't mind Cannibal Corpse), Nu metal, thrash, etc.

Notable albums:
Anything by Tool but Aenima is easily the greatest album ever made.
Metallica - S&M was cool for something different
Korn - Life is Peachy

 

[Twizzle]

Fair enough. I like them though, good fun band.

saw them at Soundwave and they really looked and sounded like a teeny bopper hair band but I now some people like them

each to their own I guess but looked a bit out of place at Soundwave

 

[adamkungl]
