Just remember guys, if your guitarist is fat you need to drop his ass or you'll never make it. Also, the real key to success is skinny jeans and moccasins. Skinny Jeans. And moccasins.

This made me laugh so uncontrollably hard my girl asked me what was so funny.  In between breaths and laughs I said 'Would you still love me if I worse Skinny Jeans and Moccasins...to which she replied "Absolutely but let's never try that ok?"

The reason it's bad is more so because of the fact they aren't "marketable", and the fact Lucky let them decide what to do.  Sheets need blood splatter [and possibly tarps as well since it's what they were going for].  They need white shirts with blood splatter and skinny jeans as well as moccasins.  They need to look more marketable.  As they are, they are basement/dive bar status for days.  If they dumped the guitarist, got make overs and actually looked cool/the part, they'd be as huge as Capture the Crown after two or so records on Artery, Rise, Sumerian, etc.

 

Lucky, tell them what I said and if they don't like it, they can clean my asshole with their tongues after eating bad chicken.  #RealTalk

Fucking. Hilarious.

Holy fuck Powder do you prowl metal shows looking for talent....

I hope they make it big doing what they want instead of confirming to an image that some asshole says they need to conform to to be successful. Quit trying to control their artistic freedom and let them express themselves how they want to. Meh!

Excellent point

Damn, That's some pretty faggy shit right there. Holy hell.

 

There it is.  Not the bands they can do them as much as I dont approve...just Powder's original comment in general.

Nah, but I should. I bet Rise Records and Sumerian would pay quite a bit. Might even be able to talk them into getting a few perecentage points of their profits, so if they become big I can move to Japan and eat the finest sushi.

By talent I meant dates you creeper

My friend's little brother is a metal core fan.

True story. So we went into the Heavy Metal Shop to see what they have in there, and he goes for the CDs. He searches and then proclaims that they don't have any real heavy metal, they only have Metallica and Black Sabbath. He literally, and not even as a joke or sarcastically, claimed that Metallica and Black Sabbath are not real metal and that Bring Me The Horizon is real metal.

I was embarrassed to be seen around him.

Heavy metal is pretty much dead to me.  I just listen to Soulfly, Sepultura, and Fear Factory.  Everything else is just homogenized formulaic commercial bullshit.

What Sepultura and Fear Factory 'eras' do you like?  Max Cavalera, or pre-Chaos AD era? pre-Christian Olde Wolbers era Fear Factory?

Anyways, I like how Soulfly has progressed.  the last 3 or 4 albums were like a nice continuation of Arise/Chaos AD era Sepultura but a little more modern.  And Marc Rizzo is a kick ass lead guitarist as well.

Yeah, I was so happy when Hoglan joined.  Strapping Young Lad was an amazing band, along with Zimmer's Hole.  Devin Townsend is my dude.  

 

I own pretty much everything Max has ever touched.  lol... I got Cavalera Conspiracy.  Killer be Killed too.

Hoglan is a beast and I think he was way under utilized in FF.  He's been on a lot of really amazing metal albums though.  Btw, I brought up Cavalera Conspiracy cuz you hadn't mentioned it, and it'd be a shame if it snuck under your radar.

Fuck ive forgotten about skinny jeans and moccasins...and Powder too...great shit this thread is full of laughs.
