I ask that people not get upset/start conflict on this post but-

My take on it is:

I guess, but none of the tribes aren't really white, so this Tumblie is doing something that they hate what Hollywood does: whitewashing. Also, it's weird how said Tumblie is going to recast other tribes when they are already based off of people of different cultures. What was that one term they keep tossing about? Cultural apporition or something like that?

I don't get it.

I wonder what's the point in buying physical cds that you can't listen to anywhere outside your computer or car nor can you copy the tracks from. I've been dubious about this ever since buying Aula that went out of commision after just a few listens. Other than for sentimental value I don't really see the point anymore tbh...

I kind of like owning the physical copy. It just feels weird for me owning something digital with my hard earned monies for some reason.

Why guys ? Attack on Titan is good xD

Since you don't got on the anime, try Attack on Titan: No Regrets, it's two ep if I'm correct.

Don't worry, I got into it, but it's one of those weird series that took me more than the first three episodes to get into it.

consisted of waiting and anticipating what would happen next. But nothing ever really happened. 

That's what I felt at first. Even the cliffhanger ending is just basically waiting and anticipating because Annie turned into crystal.

Me too, haha. Have you finished this yet?

 

It was quite a chore for me to sit through, but it did eventually pick up near the end. There were definitely some exciting and well executed moments, mostly thanks to the animation and music/music direction, but overall I felt like the hype was unfounded.

I finished it after deciding to just continue through it by continuing episode six and up. I mostly waited for the hype to die down and got into it after being coerced by a good friend to watch it. I have to admit that the second opening is a lot better in both the music and visuals because it doesn't recycle animation used in the actual episodes. Also, the second opening reminds me of Galneryus for some reason.

They just felt SO damn cliche.

I expected as such with a shoujen-esque series. But, I put that aside and actually saw some growth with a lot of the characters that isn't Eren and maybe Mikasa. Although at this point, I honestly don't care if Annie dies or not.

This is literally the only scene that I remembered from the first few episodes of Attack on Potatoes. Everything else I just kind of slept through.

It's weird seeing so many people finally getting into One Punch Man. Not going to be that nerd that will complain about 'newbies', I'm just glad that it's getting more fans.

I got around to completing the first season of Attack on Titan. I didn't re-watch the first five episodes that I slept through and figured that I could sum it up in a handful of words from basic training, potatoes, and crunchy. It really picked up for me after the plugging of the wall. Honestly? It's not the worst thing I've watched, but it's also not the End All, Be All Anime that a lot of people were claiming it to be because well... anime fans on Tumbles are weird to me.

 

Arche is basically their Death Magnetic though, ouch.

 I can actually listen to ARCHE though.

Awesome setlists, but Un deux as a closer seems kind of odd.

DEG needs to troll their fans again someday

 

BAKA!!

*Intro to Cage plays over PA*

*Band plays DECAYED CROW after intro dies down*

The DEG fanbase is amusing. Back before UROBOROS came out, there were debates on whether or not the band was abandoning their so called original sound as if rock/metal music was a norm in Japan before the arrival of KISS, Iron Maiden, and Deep Purple back in the late 70s and early 80s. Even then, the earliest Japanese rock band, Flower Travellin' Band was influenced by the likes of Cream and Jimi Hendrix. With that said, it strikes me odd that there were DEG fans that just assumed that X Japan and others just all of a sudden played rock music with NO outside influence. Even the band had "Western" influences even before coming to the States for the first time almost a decade ago.

When I first heard GAUZE, the production was so lack luster that I assumed that the release was maybe around late 80s and early 90s. I was surprised that the album only came out in 1999. Then again, I don't know much about the behind the scenes of a rock band that just started out in Japan versus a band outside of Japan. It's not the lack of "heavy" music that prevents me from keeping the first album in rotation, just the production value. MACABRE and the releases up to Withering to death. are pretty good, but sometimes I just want more power behind the music. Or as Clarkson would carelessly shout "POWER!" whilst driving a lorry into a brick wall. Or anything infantile that he does for that matter.

While VULGAR and Withering to death. were the albums that got me to listening to the band more, it was THE MARROW OF A BONE that got me to listen to the rest of the catalogue without skipping at least seventy-five percent of their music. I still don't get comments like "it's too heavy" or "sound like as if they were glued together" when it comes to tracks in this phase of the band. There are plenty of tracks that could easily fit right in with this phase of the band with modern production and little to no reconstruction. Hydra, Zan, Myaku, and FILTH could fit in with ARCHE and possibly UROBOROS. (Now that I think about it, I'd love to hear a remake of Myaku.) With that said, I honestly can't just choose between the two, but I won't delve into the argument of which era is better. There are a few duds in the early phase, but that won't stop me from listening to it.

Incidentally, I would have gotten into the band a lot earlier, but a certain fan girl who insisted that their earlier stuff was somehow heavier than the likes of Pantera and her holier than thou attitude about Japanese music kind of turned me off from Japanese bands. Then again, this is the same fan girl that claims that GACKT was the better singer of the band. Thankfully, I got into Japanese music through the likes of MUCC and Galneryus.

Hot damn.

I don't exactly hate Jesus Christ R'nR, but I don't actively hit it as the first song when I want to play their discography on random. I just don't listen to it as often when compared to the entire Withering to death album.

That's a weird way of spelling Jesus Christ R'nR.

Or you know... practice? Neil Peart does an hour warm-up before the shows he play at and he's 63.

I know I'm new here, but maybe your point would come across better if you were less obtuse.

Welcome to this board. It's usually like this when it comes to certain bands, but don't take it to heart.

I still don't understand the censoring. It's one of the reasons why I don't put the song on a high pedestal like a lot of fans.

I remember walking from Renton to downtown Seattle one day when Mazyohst came on the MP3 player. I almost forgot that it was even on until that little beep halfway during the song.

Municipal Wastian?

I want to hear a MW influenced song by DEG now.

Let me guess: it's more of the same, and as usual it's of high quality, but just not high enough? Motorhead's never released a poor album, but when you have albums like Overkill, Bomber, Ace of Spades, Iron First, Aoother Perfect Day, Orgasmatron, 1916 and No Sleep 'til Hammersmith in your collection you've kinda got enough Motorhead if you ask me.

 

Also speaking about Motorhead, I never understood why Mikkey Dee left King Diamond to join Motorhead, fi that is what he did? Yes, Motorhead's a bigger band and all, but he doesn''t get to use more than 1/10th of himself when drumming for Motohead. Don't get me wrong, Dee is one of the best and coolest drummers ever and his work with Motorhead is great, but his work on Fatal Portrait, Abigail, "Them" and Conspiracy are close to unbeatable. Incredible drum work that's rarely been matched, and it's a shame we've never got to hear him play like that again.

About right. Not that it is a bad thing in my book though. They have a good spot in my heart mostly because they along with Dio and Iron Maiden were my first concert ever.

Still not used to the idea of new music releases on a Friday as opposed to a Tuesday. With that said, I love the new Motörhead album.

Best Raw of the Year.
