Yeah well Shipping up to Boston was in the Departed soundtrack, so that's probably why.

I met Dropkick Murphys, they played a big concert in my town with a couple of other Boston bands.

Anyone know what happened in March 1967 that has to do with music and I celebrated for yesterday?

I'll give a hint, it has to do with Hendrix.

Anyone heard 10 Years' new single? Friggen' awesome song, I just wish I could remember what it was called...

EDIT: "Beautiful" is it's name.

IMO, these songs are the most epic songs I've heard:

From the Inside.
Papercut.
Somewhere I Belong.

All by Linkin Park, but you knew that, of course.

Good songs, I wouldn't say they're epic though.

Any heard of the Vitamin String Quartet? They make a bunch of classical cover albums of different bands. Basically for any mainstream band/artist you might be able to think of off the top of your head, there's a large chance they've made an album of their music. They also include original compositions in their albums, so it's not just 100% covers.

Pretty sure all of their albums are on iTunes, if anyone wants to listen to the previews.

I just noticed something. The light cymbals in Wake by Linkin Park seem to start over every second. Listen closely and it's like a sound clip that just starts over every second, the whole song.

I was just reminded of how much I like Pink Spiders.

Calling Dragonforce metal is like using a mini cooper as a tank.

It's just not right :S

what would you call it ?

galvination · Post by **galvination** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 4:27 pm

Bad music

or pop rock. Just because it's fast doesn't make it metal at all.

JK-47 · Post by **JK-47** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 4:29 pm

I'm not much of a fan of Dragonforce (I do like a few songs), but they're definitely not pop rock.

0m3g4Muff1n987 · Post by **0m3g4Muff1n987** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 4:47 pm

Idk what they are, but they're definitely not metal. They're just insane asians who show off with their guitars too much IMO.

stephen10101 · Post by **stephen10101** » Sun Mar 09, 2008 4:57 pm

Dragonforce doesn't put enough soul into their music, all they do is play as many notes as possible in as little lime as possible. A wise man once told me, it's not how many notes you play, but how you play the notes.

I wouldn't call Dragonforce metal either, I will admit that their guitarists are talented as fuck though.

I believe you're speaking of Insasians.
I don't care what kind of music it is, as long as I like the way it sounds.
