Downtown's look like what I'm after.   Philips hadn't released anything new for a while last time I was here.

Haven't posted here in many years. Cured upgraditis and don't like the new website =[   I'm after some purple (preferably brightish purple) on-ear portably type headphones for a birthday present. Yes they must be purple.   I only know of Skullcandy and various other consumer-fi brands...

Quote: OMG I know! Hahahah   Such an addictive album, pure smiles all around

A.Tolonen from Nest has a new project called Syven.   "Syven aims to create dark, heavy, primordial and even shamanistic music, where the driving force is the traditional Finnish string instrument, the kantele, accompanied by atmospheric synth layering, ritualistic percussion and heavy...

keen

The End Records had a change of Management. The new Management probably went, hmm Virgin Black have not made us enough money off their last 2 releases ... **** the 3rd one. Lysander says: so... you wanna know what happened to VB eh? < Sensu/<i > says: yeah Lysander says: no idea <...

I've been well man Saw Opeth live for the first time recently, was pretty good. They played too many songs off their new album and I was really facepalming during one point of the concert, however after that they played April Ethereal, Face of Melinda and Deliverance so that was much...

Listening now All I can say is OH MY GOD WEEPING BEAUTY

Whoops. Didn't notice this until today Quote: Danny Cavanagh and Anneke Van Giesbergen will be teaming up again for a couple of special shows NEXT WEEK. The dates are: Sept 24 - ANTWERP, Belgium (Pandemonium) Sept 25 - EINDHOVEN, Holland (Dynamo) Annie and Danny will be releasing...

Yo guys I've been out of the loop for years now. Where are the good places to purchase metal from via mailorder. Years ago I used to use The End Records, Redstream, Dark Symphonies and a few other small labels. The End was the best (in 05-06) until their stuff started getting shipped...

Spent about a month listening to Alice in Chains - Black Gives Way to Blue and I have to say it's the best release I've heard in 2 years. Matthew if you weren't a huge fan of their old lead vocalist the new guy melds in well with Jerry Cantrell and would probably suit you better (He was...

I might be interested once I get my new amp, I attended the first ever Melbourne meet

I've owned HD650, MS-2, MS-Pro, Woodied HF-1, RS-1, K3000 and heard DT-990 extensively as well and the HD650 is the most forgiving of all of those to my ears.

I know such a person yes, and I am aware of the design flaws over the last few years, this is a model made in 2005? I think, before I buy I will make sure he takes pics of the internals.

Then I don't know what the person who told me that was talking about Thanks for clearing that up.

It's been a while since I've posted in the non-music section. I was thinking of purchasing a second hand Singlepower MPX3 from the for sale section here as years ago I remember they were really good tube amps that everyone was raving about (and at the time I had a MAD Ear+). Now I noticed...

got Madder Mortem's new album in the mail from Burning Shed Mailorder today with a nice poster of the album art included. Spinned through once while I was cooking dinner and I have to say I enjoyed it, it goes back to more All Flesh is Grass / Deadlands sound with a few of the slower/jazzier...

Fantastic live band too great feeling

Madder Mortem CD on the way from the UK, will post when I get it

Except this one. Just listened to it then, there are fragments of the music that had the "maudlin of the well" feel to but they are scarce. There's some beautiful parts in the music, especially with the Violin and Cello but I don't really like the direction they took with this album. It's...
