best part of that is the picture to the video

that folklore metal type metal should be great but in general it sucks. I don't get why they all seem to come across as joke bands. Bathory did the viking thing and it was "serious" music the was great ...... these types of bands need to stop the carnival type thing and make good heavy music that makes you go WOW that kicks ass :mrgreen:

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

as always they are tight as hell but for me ultimately boring. I saw them years ago at the cool venue on queen st (ak) that burnt down and was blown away at how tight the were live and how smooth all the time shifts and clean/dirty guitars switching was. But I also remember after about 3 songs thinking i'd seen enough

Realistically I was a huge fan of "still Life" but only a moderate fan of anything else they did so as they have evolved I lost all interest in them. Had a listen to their last album and just could get through it

Back when I was 16 or so (early 90's) I went to a Patrick Eggle guitar clinic in Birmingham, UK. The late Big Jim Sullivan was playing it (very tasteful player) along with a long haired lanky guitarist called Jan Cyrka (had moments of being tasteful - however he did have a rather nice tone from memory). Not sure why he was doing the clinic as he was oddly trying to promote them and sing their praises whilst doing his set with his hand-painted(s) 9-'s Kramer shred machine. Having said all of the above, I found I could relate to his playing as he was an accessible/simpler version of the Vai's and Satriani's that were popular at that time. Just went back and listened to these couple of tracks for the first time in 20+ years, actually pretty good :wave:

I laughed hard at first thinking it was a parody, but on digging deeper it is kind of a sad tale of a someone who genuinely believes their 'talent'...
I want all the pedals!

Must suck as an artist with the kind of style and feel he had, when you have those off days (or weeks) and nothing is working for you.

We all have it but at worst we stop playing for a bit and maybe talk about it on here. He could have been having one of those moments too but his was in front of a big audience with someone pointing a camera at him recording it for all time.
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.

Take home message here is research the crap out of whatever you are interested in buying, but he raised some good points and I thought it was an interesting watch :thumbup:
