this is so sad

I don't know who pissed in your cornflakes but it wasn't me. I really don't get this.

First you're on my tits and now someone's pissed in my cornflakes and YOU don't get this?

Oh, it's on now.

Prepare for battle, n00b. I'm about to go Hunger Games.

Oh goodness. What ever shall I do. I'm about to get interneted to death.
 
He's certainly very good, though I am not a fan of guitar wankery just for the sake of guitar wankery.

Oh yea...his stuff is a little lifeless I'll admit. But as a guitarist, I love guitar wankery for the sake of just packing the most disgusting riff's into 5 min and shredding like a boss on top of it for 5 min just because your so fuckin good you can. :D

That being said....I love a quite a few non instrumental only/non prog artist as well.

Swashbuckle, After The Burial, Born of Osiris, Cannibal Corpse, Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Burger, Dethklok, Lamb of God, Deftones, Fear Factory, NIN, Watain, Killswitch Engage, Through The Eyes of The Dead, Gorgoroth, Aborted, Abysmal Dawn, Arsonist Get All The Girls, Genghis Tron, Annotations of An Autopsy, Trigger The Bloodshed, Murder Dolls, Mastodon, Gojira...yea that's all I got off the top of my head but that's prob the bulk of my vocal metal.

You like your instrumentals don't you?

I do...let's my brain wander differently....so it's all mood dependant. Sometimes it's a classical rock evening with a couple friends, or super chill down tempo evening with the bong and aquarium, or metal for a spirited drive granulating some good year's on a nice summer night....

Strictly speaking, that's not exactly the case, but close enough for jazz. Frequency is a measurable faculty of the physical world: literally how many times a wave completes a cycle in a second.

Pitch is a perceptual phenomenon that lives solely in the domain of cognition. There is a VERY close relationship between frequency and pitch--waves of different frequencies trigger nerve firings associated with different pitches, and those pitches relate to each other in a manner similar to the frequencies--but they're not truly the same thing.

I love it when he does this.

Not quite true either. We use inter-aural phase differential (and time-differential) to locate the origin of sounds--that is, we take into account the length and height of the wave relative to our head and other objects, including the time it takes for the remainder of a wave to travel around our head to the other ear. (We also use the way the physiology of our outer ear--the pinna--reflects sound to determine up from down.)

For waves smaller than the average head, phase differential becomes almost impossible to determine, and we have great difficulty locating the origin of the sound without a stop and start. Think of mosquitos, cell phones, and of course pure sine tones. Without a time-differential clue--a marked start after a marked stop--we have no good locational information.


^^^^^^
blah blah blah something smart.

Did you see this in the news last year? Sad but lovely.

Restores your faith in love & romance.

This almost makes up for the sad whale.
 
I don't what to say about this thread except it's a search to resolve sadness. We want to help the whale and have no idea how to do so or maybe we have ideas but no way to carry them out. The man in grief had an idea what to do and it actually worked for him much to his surprise.

Miracles happen sometimes.

"Miracles" is a bit of a stretch, and the thing with animals is they can't reason themselves out of their feelings or imagine anything far in the future. The whale will always be sad because he (she?) is incapable of planting a garden.

Stand back everyone!

You're mesmerizing when you break out the cutlass.
 
I can appreciate the talent required for guitar wankery, it just bores me. And the egos get to me, Yngwie Malmsteen being a perfect example. I'm also more of a bass fan. I love a driving bass line. So naturally I love Primus. :p

Out of the bands you mentioned, NIN is.the only one I've gotten into. I like FFs Demanufacure though.
Other than Devi I've not been listening to much metal lately. A lot of Faith No More, Tool and quite a bit of tecjno. I enjoy Opeth, Sigh, some Carcass, some Ayreon, White Zombie, Pantera. I've drawn a blank now.
