An amplifier can improve sound quality, however that does not mean you will be able to perceive that improvement. Some sources don't need to be amplified. IMHO, and after all the money I threw away in this "hobby" I would not buy an amplifier if I were to choose again, unless the only source you...

New Gorod album out. Heard the first song, liked the first song. Just saying (in case it hasn't been mentioned here)

Shut up and bring us opinions on Cormorant's Dwellings. :D   Quote:  

Same here. My name's gonna be on that album as well.    Can't wait for it :D   Quote:      

Hell yeah!!! New albums by Cloudkicker!! (Name your price)   http://cloudkicker.bandcamp.com/

Listened to Ritual by TBDM. Liked it quite a bit.

Have you guys listened to The Red Chord?    Not bad, due to songs like this one:     NOTE: SQ is crappy, check it out on Spotify or grooveshark. 

That might be a reason as to why I like them. But it is the mix of everything. For example how they manage to blend the part that starts at 2:22 with the rest of the song, the different vocals they use.    Quote:   Zombie X, the vocals take some time to get used to. It is not the kind...

This guys kick some serious ass.      Check out their whole album Antares. It is insane.

I love mastodon, but I am having my doubts if I should spend $62 (shipped to Europe) for the limited edition.    Quote:
