What are you listenin to!?

EyeOfTheHawks

I had this thread before the site was reset, so i figured id start it again. Its a nice way of finding new music, and listening to other people's taste in music. Now that we have more members here at DoG it should be more interesting.

Feel free to discuss posted music aswell, you can post your disagreements or problems, or your likes and positivities (i made up a word :D ). But please dont start a flamewar. Please!

Posts would preferably be formatted like so :

'Song'
Album
-Artist-

[ You can include a youtube embed aswell if you wish ]

Ill start things off

'The Hollow'
Mer De Noms
-A Perfect Circle-

I've been listening to Disturbed's new album, Marilyn Manson's Eat Me, Drink Me and the new koRn album. I also listened to part of Stone Sour's new album.

forREVer I've been listening to ax7 too I enjoy thier new album and like the portnoy touch, also is you username in reference to the rev?

Here a song I've been enjoying I saw these guys + chelsea grin + attila + some local bands in hamilton a few weeks ago it was lots of fun

Doos

I wandered over to my local 'Source' to see if any of these game deals I've been hearing about were still around... they weren't.

Enroute I listened to many songs by many artists, but the one I enjoyed the most was this one:

Quick EDIT:

I work with a dude who is in a band in Hamilton.. What'er they called again? Something about the 'Sunset' or 'Til the Sunrise' or something like that...

Err.. 'City At Sunset!' that's the one...

Any of ya'll Hamilton boys ever heard of 'em? Apparently if he can get the day off his band is going to play in New York on Saturday with a bunch of Victory Records bands... and Dillinger Escape Plan.

Or something...

Smoreninja

@doos funny note; you can buy a 'third arm' at the source.

Ozzi

Diamond Eyes
Not 100% sure what soundtrack im just gonna say its from the expendables
Shinedown

All i can say is chances are when i put what im listening to on this it will be totally different music what i was listening to last time.... :P

Juxtapose

Classic Rock, Q107.

Yea it is. Ive been trying to figure out a suitable avenged gamertag but havent come up with one yet. ive got one dream theater album, but after hearing portnoy so much now i think ill have to get a few more.

@Ozzi

When you mentioned Diamond Eyes, I thought you were talking about the Deftones' single and album title. That's a phenomenal album.

Ozzi

@Wick98 Well, I'm Listening to
Deftones
Diamond Eyes right now :P.... Good song though

@Doos Sadly I have never heard of that band, I'm not from Hamilton I just live really close to it. Hopefully your friends get to play with The dillenger escape plan i hear they put on one hell of a show

@forREver I recommended listening to "images and words" by dream theater and then work your way up chronologically they are a great band sadly portnoy left :( recently

@Ozzi

I love the entire album, but Risk is probably my favourite song on it. Beauty School would be second. The two singles are good as well though (Diamond Eyes and Rocket Skates.)

Doos

Rocket Skates was the only song on that album that got me going 'Yeah... YEAH! YEAH FUCKING YEAH!' Fist pumping and punching the roof of the car.

Heh.

Deftones haven't really blow my hair back since Engine #9.

Last night enroute to work Death Blooms came up on my Ipod.

I lost my fucking mind.

The bass in that song is awesome. When I heard that album (LD 50) it changed my musical tastes.

EyeOfTheHawks

Turned on my computer and this song came on, so i found a video of it. It was never released as studio, so live only.

Jerk-Off [Live]
Opiate [EP]
Tool

The video is terrifying... Maynard (singer) doesnt blink once. And Danny (Drummer) also looks like hes trippin out on something.

The vocals are stellar for LIVE though

This performance of Bottom is just amazing too. His dance moves towards the end are jaw dropping :P [At about 6 minutes]

Bottom
Undertow
Tool

I just love the way Maynard moves his torso to the drums

Doos

Opiate is a fantastic EP. Blew my mind.

Also in regards to Maynard and his live vocals. He takes that shit very seriously. It's unfortunately why he won't do certain songs at concerts any more. He can't hit the screams as well as he'd like, or they just ruin his voice so he doesn't perform them unless his voice is in tip top shape.

Like 'Ticks and Leeches'.

It's a bummer, but also a good thing too. Tool is well known for always wanting to put on a fantastic show. They want it to be an experience.

Wick

Deftones and Mudvayne are two of my favourite bands, along with several others (NIN, Disturbed, Silverchair, Alice Cooper, koRn...)

Death Blooms is one of my favourite Mudvayne songs. It's the song that actually got me into them, via an Ozzfest CD.

As for the Deftones - I think their best song is Passenger, which is actually my favourite song of all-time.

Exactly. Maynard RARELY does Ticks and Leeches. I dont blame him.

He also wont perform either of the Wings for Marie, because it is about his mother.

He cant hit the highnotes in some songs anymore either (The Pot) and such. But he still sings Pushit like a champ.

Search "The most hilarious and informative moments of MJK" on youtube, its awesome.

Might try to get tickets for rob halford and ozzy at the acc
I've been listening to ozzy/sabath lately

Also some Rush of course

foREVer

Thanks for the tip on the Dream Theater albums the1npc. I bought Systematic Chaos by them a long time ago but havent given it a listen though yet. Will probably do so tomorrow at work.

Howdy, Stranger!
