Been looking for a while now so thought Id post here. Does anyone have any spare standing tickets for Slayer at the Academy? looking for 2, any help would be appreciated

Black Dahlia Murder are playing the Cathouse on Jan 19th. Very good band and great live. Their latest effort Abysmal is really really solid. Not their best but still a good album.

3MB are one of the best things going just now

No one would happen to have one or two spare standing tickets for Limp Bizkit on Sunday would they?

Really curious about this. Rarely see someone leaving a Ghost show and hating it. Did he mention why he didnt like the vocalist per chance? Bleed from within were a bad choice for the tour. They would have went down huge in there own scene but to put them on a tour like that was just bizzare.

Shocking announcements. The only positive I can take from this is that maybe the money has gone to Van Halen and Aerosmith as mentioned earlier. The thing is, I actually like all the bands announced so far, but FOB as a sub is a shocking announcement.Surely having them as a second stage headliner makes more sense.. Linkin Parks return is to soon. A7x and Rob Zombie I have no complaints about. A strong undercard is just as important as headliners which people forget, ill see how that turns out. Hopefully we get NIN, Tool and Motley Crue

Theres plenty of really good newer (last ten years)bands out there. Ghost, Heart of a coward, The Sword, Hang the b*****d, Parkway Drive, Palm Reader, Hacktivist, Cancer Bats, Baby Godzilla , Crossfaith to name but a few

I agree entirely. If you look at the U.K.s festival scene alone. In the last 5 years we had 3 festivals that are geared solely to a rock and metal audience. 2 of which were in the top tier of festivals in the country in Sonisphere and Download. Compare that to other festivals in the top group like say a TITP or V festival, which doesnt really have a set audience and just kind of throws everything in there to sell tickets- which by all means is not a bad thing- Then its amazing that there were two festivals purely geared toward rock and metal up there. Obviously we lost sonisphere but we still have bloodstock, which isnt up there with download, with regard to size but is still going strong and getting stronger each year. Its just a great time to be a fan of heavy music.

Id say metal is in a great state at the moment. There are some great bands out there, alot more than say five years ago, when metal was really in a rut. There wont be bands of that size again, I agree on that. There havent been any in the last 10 years apart from Slipknot. Thats mostly down to the way that music has changed and downloading has taken over. Alot more music out there and alot of ways to get it. If we are talking pure fan boy dream scenarios. Id like to see this line up for future festival headliners/subs- Alter bridge/Ghost Mastodon/Gojira Lamb of God/Amon Amarth

Just ordered it off amazon. Im with the people on here that will probably make their money back in a couple of weeks. No socialising for me for a few weeks I think. I just want to see the flamethrower come back

Any of you heard the new Avenged Sevenfold album? I really wanted it to be good but unfortunatly I just cant get over how much they have ripped off other bands work pretty blatently. Its really sad, because this should have been their huge breakthrough- I mean fair enough they got to number 1 but they have became a bit of a laughing stock. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SokRilLQcyU I mean this obviously is just sad but true by tallica.

Cheers mate, hope you knock your interview out the park. I wish you all the best also mate.

After having been graduated for over a year and having to continue to work my part time job of 7 years -as I searched for a new job- in which they refused to give me more hours then hired more people in my department and gave them more hours. Gave me more hours for a few weeks then took them off me because one of the managers sons didnt like working nightshift. Meaning I went from 22 hours to 9 hours. Having to do demeaning tasks and never being thanked for it. To never thanking me for covering their mistakes. To being treated like a toddler and being bullied by people who were bitter at the fact I had a chance to leave. Today I got offered a full time job within my degree field. I get to hand my notice in on Monday and start on the 16th. Ill now be making 5 times what I made in that shite job and ill make in a month what it took me 4 to make previously. I honestly couldnt be any fucking happier right now. :) ^^^^ Verge of tears. ( In a good way)

Id really doubt that. Machine Head are a huge act,they sell out arenas, they headline festivals that are just below the likes of say a Download. Bloodstock being the perfect example. One of the most popular bands in metal. Machine F'n Head chants were heard all around download this year and they werent even playing. Id say Adam left because he felt he couldnt work with Rob Flynn anymore, even Flynn himself said at times he is a nightmare to be around. Id agree on your point about the Evile situation. They are one of those nearly bands, who should really be as huge as say a Machine Head but never really made it. That can be seen from the fact they are playing Stereo in Glasgow. Which is a shame cause evile are a really good band. I read an interview with Mark Hunter from Chimaira where he said that they dont make any money from touring anymore. Only in album and merch sales. Some people dont realise how hard it can be for bands like them, you would have thought they would have a steady income but they dont

New song from Korn. Its a bit different from what they usually do but I am enjoying it. New album out 30th September http://youtu.be/ErBBORxsEsk
