Their music is decent, But when we saw these guys last summer in Oregon, the lead singer gave my girlfriend Herpes. Feelsbadman.jpg We're waiting for them to hit it big and make some money so we can sue them for spreading disease.
Honestly, I prefer Glen Drover to Chris Broderick, if only because I absolutely loved United Abominations and more so than Endgame. Endgame got old a lot faster than United Abominations and I prefer Drover live, as well.
heavy thrash riffage - good. emotional vocals, very close to Psychotic Waltz and Queensryche vocalists - nice. drums - meh. Sorry, Shawn, these are not the best parts you've laid down. Bass is kinda weak, and I don't like it. All in all? I will definitely check this band out, they have juice :)
@SpanishDrumHero In Greek Mythology, Eidolon is an aspect of the human consciousness. From what I understand, the Eidolon is like us, or maybe what Freud would call the Ego. The other part of consciousness is the Daemon, which is what Freud would call the Unconscious. I read that a while ago though, so it may be a bit off.
@moustafajan Ah, I see. But...what about the whole Eidolon/Daemon philosophy about the conscious/unconscious mind? Didn't the Greeks have that? I mean, I believe you that the literal meaning is "mirror reflection" but I've read about it being to define...basically what Freud called the ego.
In Theosophy, an eidolon (Greek ειδωλον: image, idol, double, apparition, phantom, ghost) is the astral double of a living being; a phantom-double of the human form; a shade or perispirit; the kamarupa after death, before its disintegration. The phantom can appear under certain conditions to survivors of the deceased. The term Eidolon was used by Edgar Allan Poe in his poem 'Dreamland' (1844). It was also later used as the subject of Walt Whitman's 'Eidolons' (1876).
I discovered Drover tru megadeth live performances , but that Eidolon band is quite amazing , the more i learn from drover , the more i respect him . He's awesome
Thats a really good observation. Glen is my guitar teacher and he told me chris poland is one of his favourite guitar players let alone his favourite megadeth guitarist
@Ristridi Glen teaches at the Long and McQuade Lesson centre in Brampton, Ontario. I'm taking lessons with him right now actually. He really knows his stuff.
these guys are probably the MOST underated band i can think of. Glen is my guitar teacher, and hes shown me some of the new stuff theyve been working on in its rough stages. from those small bits and peices of songs, im pretty sure i can say their next album will almost certainly be their best.
i've gotten lessons from glen before as well. great guy and an even better guitarist. just from jamming with him, i know the next eidolon album is gonna be killer.
my opinion, drover brothers, alot of talent, but in megadeth isent show to much.. in eidolon does, anyway here the drums are lame, the guy can do a hell of a job if he wants of course.. may he like it that way.. to much death and jazz drums i have hear.. lol
this kicks ass, not sure about the vocals but the riffage is great!! puts all the friedman lovin, droven hatin fans to shame!! i love friedman as much as the next deth fan (if not more) but give way for the new wave dudes!! Excellent! cant wait to see deth in Feb! :)
how can you say they aint the same without Drover??? they havent produced anything without hium yet lol. Yea ive heard the rumors as well, Dave is meant to be making a startement shortly so looks like its game over for the Drover Mustain partnership!! shame as they were tight on stage!!!
Drover is an awesome guitarist. But right now Chris Broderick is pretty much the best in the business. There's a few vids of Chris playing some Drover stuff. He nails it.
Any way this is pretty good. Not to sure about the vocals though.
Broderick only got the gig after his bandmate from (whoever he played with prior to deth) said NO!! lol
But anyhoo, i saw them a couple o weeks ago twice in 2 nights, Broderick nailed pretty much everything, if he is gna be a perm fixture Dean are goin to have to get busy building a 7 sting lol, i dont think they have one in their catalogue at the moment!!!
broderick is a bit more technical than glen, but theyre pretty much on par, but then Drover also plays with the emotion and feeling youd find in the likes of Slash and Page. when you combine those elements, drover comes out the better guitarist. broderick is pretty damn good though i gotta give him that.
Broderick, technically speaking, is much better than Glen. No contest. True, Glen is more emotional and arguably more original as well, but look up Broderick's Betcha Can't Play This and some Jag Panzer songs. I do think Glen was probably better for Megadeth though.
I agree with you Raviotar Broderick is probably even the best 'shredder' in the world right now, despite this he is still a shitty ball bag. Drover is better
chris broderick is way better than glen,if you have seen symphony of destruction with glen live you can see hecant play marty freidmans solosworth shit and then you watch broderick and he plays it perfectly..so broderick should be the one in megadeth and glen is still shred in eidolon i mean i bet hes happier there
broderick and glenn are both great, broderick is obviously better at playing covers but listen to UA, glenns solos were awesome, he cant play martys perfectly but not alot of people can. chris is just a beast, but glenn is still great
A friend of mine hit the nail on the head I think, he said about Chris: He is just not cool. I totally agree. He's a very good guitar player but Glen is just such a cool guy. Chris tries to be but sorry man Glen kicks your ass in coolness.
Chris can PLAY anything that Marty wrote, but he can't construct a good solo. It's always this retardedly fast playing with no melody. I think Chris Poland was the gem of Megadeth. His playing on The System Has Failed and Peace Sells was just amazing, and Glen's style reflects Poland's style.
fair enough thats your opinion but are you serious! Chris broderick solo's are AWESOME, i think your wrong dude in that way but yes Poland was a very awesome guitarist and glen's main influence i heard was poland? so i suppose they are very similar.
I have no idea why this band isnt more well known, so much tallent, but anywho, glen and shawns talent are being known now that there in megadeth, i hope people reconize there tallent
this drummer is the actual megadeth drummer right?
