Re: Halestorm - Darkness Always Wins

I will double down and say there is no way in hell they have any fans in this demographic…. There might be some girls that like rock that dig them, and that is awesome, but they are d-standard (not the guitar tuning) foo fighters with a big toothed gummy gal that tries to be metal and so “rock” Ther...

Re: Halestorm - Darkness Always Wins

I saw Halestorm open for Alice Cooper in 2019. They just don't have the songs. This one isn't good either. I agree mostly. I do like this song, but I've tried to get into them otherwise and nothing really pumps me up other than the cover of Slave to the Grind. I remain a fan of Lzzy, however. She s...

Re: Megadeth's final album and tour

I’ll bet I’ve see Megadeth live - unintentionally, more than any other band . I would guess around 10x they were the opening act for someone else I went to see . I think at half of those shows , Dave had some kind of a meltdown at the sound guy, security or crowd . He stopped the show to cry about ...

Re: Alice in Chains or Soundgarden?

AIC all day... They were more Rock and Metal than the others from the era. As for SG... Chris was clearly the stand-out vocalist, over the rest of Seattle & the rest of the 90's Grunge bands by a mile... but their songs were nowhere near as good. There was A LOT of money poured into SG, and the...

Re: Bob Mould - It's too late

Bob Mould is one of my favorite artists of that genre. I probably got into his original band Husker Du first and then found his 90s band Sugar…. His solo stuff is super cool, I have a few of his solo albums, but had not heard that tune, thanks for posting!

Re: Be Gene Simmons' Roadie For a Day $12,495

Not that it requires a PhD, but I am not sure if I would want some cum guzzling kiss fan to set up my gear before a show. He probably just has him unfolding tables and such for the merch stand, but the person has to have some type of mental illness to pay to work. It is hilarious though. I applauded...

Re: I think all I've heard by the Deftones over the years is maybe 90 seconds

I never got the hype around them… if there was any. An acquaintance that also plays guitar was super into them, but I never got the appeal. He never got the appeal of the Swedish melodic death metal I was into, so fair play. The genre seemed like a crossroads of jock music with a mix of music nerds....
