@Bassbait Yep Death and SYL are my fav's too. Thats pretty much where I became a big fane of Gene. I think most of the stuff he does I like as it's HIS drumming.

Those that know Devin Townsends and Zimmers Hole's background, they always throw in samples and tributes here and there of riffs and so forth that we all know. I particularly like 'Bound By Fire' as they take the piss out of all styles of metal but make a brutal album at the same time. Gotta lov...

bloody hell. she sounds like Heather Donahue from Blair Witch Project. exact same voice and delivery!! My brother and I were besotted with Megan when we watched AOGG.

Brilliant. I'm so glad someone out there is making these available. Why does't JMJ bring out ALL his main concerts on DVD? Thank god for youtube.

@dudhala21 *I hate all these made up genres. Its either Metal or not. Straightup.* I used to think this many years ago, but I have since changed my mind as there are so many variations that it's not simply metal like it was in the 80's and early 90's (even then it was changing). Without some rou...

as long as it's not associated with metal listen to it all you like. apalling. I'm normally quite reserved and simply don't comment usually towards other styles I don't like but this type of crap is creeping into the industry and it's rubbish, absolute rubbish. The first and last time I lend any...

I saw LOG support Metallica in Australia a year or so ago and I reckon they purposely made them sound a bit average on the day. When you hear the cd's and the mix in that concert they sounded terrible. They've got a few good songs these lads.

Not a bit bit of old school thrash that. I have no idea when this came out but sounds mid to late 80's ish??

these are some of the best posts I've ever read! I can't stop laughing. Out of interest I met Dev 13 years ago and have a great photo with him. Back in the Strapping days when he ventured to Melbourne often.

@luke666808g Yes I'd agree with your observations on the progression of the albums as they were released. I'll listen to and absorb the new album for a while before I pass any judgement obviously. I am struggling with the idea of seeing Mikael as more 'progressive' so to speak and less 'metal'. W...

Sorry, how does throwing permit you to bowl???? That's fucked.

Circle pits are piss funny! I've never seen one live in OZ! I'm sure they happen somewhere. I reckon they're bizarre, but anyway. good luck to ya if you're into them.

AGORILLA'S A FUCKING MOLE. GO KELLY!

Amazing athlete!!

I'm a Geelong man born and bread and Aker is a fantastic player and person in my opinion. As far as i'm concerned he was crucified by Matthews and Smorgan and whatever media didn't like him. What a champion!!

I just finished watching 'For the term of his natural life' which was a mini series Colin did back in 82 and I first saw this a couple of years later when I was 14. I found it on DVD a couple of years ago and watch it often. Brilliant work Colin!! Be interesting to know where many of the actor...

Good voice. Just to follow some comments below. If you want unedited brilliant voices, Heavy Metal singers for the most part do this regularly. Look at Devin Townsend, Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford for starters. Once I post this I'll think of others.

Just got a copy of Abramelins first MCD and other Destruktor goodies from Glenn of Destruktor today. Great stuff!!

Who needs subtitles?? I'm from Oz and I can understand these guys. I don't know all the slang but anyway. I tell you what is funny is when we get American programs in Australia where they subtitle English speaking people ie anyone other than Americans. Quite bizarre when you can easily understa...

@LiveMental

Yes. I followed Death from late eighties and was in my top three bands until the late nineties. I played Death Symbolic for months in 97'. I often wonder what Chucks sound would be like now. You could not pick what the next album was going to sound like. Such a shame he passed aw...

@CrankItEveryDay

That's a great observation!

Fantastic! Great days they were and it's a couple of years on from Death's Leprosy as that album was 1988 I think and this one early nineties, but it was the sound at the time. I noticed the 'Unleashed' t-shirt on the drummer another of my favourite bands of the time and still making geat tunes.

I went up to Cobram early Jan and they'd only just opened up some of the access tracks but you couldn't get near the river on the N.S.W side just east of Barooga. Too many bloody mozzies anyway. I'm not sure about how that area is coping now but Swan Hill might be a bit stuffed. Poor buggers.

too stoppy starty for me. Appreciate those that get into it but I have never in 20 odd years of listening to death metal ever gotten into this style. I'm not saying it's bad as music is subjective. Lamb of God sort of do this a bit as well. Messugah spring to mind but they carry a groove wit...

fucking hell that's funny. This program has the best sketches ever!!

'All i'd been doin was sitting on my backside drinkin beer". Pisser!!! Go Thommo.

Jeff Thompson is and always will be the fastest bowler the world has ever seen. I think the title of this video is a bit fcked up really!!

Beacuase nothing happens in New Zealand they've created some sooky la la baggage about this incident. No-one cares about this other than to laugh about it now. Move on!

What a pisser! Unfortunately the world lacks a sense of humor.
