Heavy Metal Friday

[Jon]

Converge is a really, really good band.

Also, I think I'm gay for Opeth. Watershed is fantastic.

Anyone ever listened to Amon Amarth?

I'm guessing no.

TPD, by the by.

I've got Fate of Norns by Amon Amarth. I like it a lot.

Speaking of Opeth, I'm listening to Still Life right now. That album blisters.

I've been getting into what is apparently called "Post-Metal" lately. Stuff like Isis, Made Out Of Babies, Rosetta, and Battle of Mice. Actually, Pelican is in that category, too.

Yeah, I like that stuff a lot. Isis is great and so is Pelican. Check out Russian Circles, too. They're local.

As far as Amon Amarth goes - check out the song Guardians of Asgaard and tell me you don't want to go beat up a skyscraper.

I illegally downloaded recently obtained a Russian Circles album. I haven't listened to it yet--I remembered Opeth and have sort have sat in a bleak Scandinavian Murderrapebetrayalhaze (with acoustic interludes) since last Thursday. I'll put it on the shortlist.

[Dr. Nguyen Van Falk]

Oleg broke up a perfectly awesome Slakast*.

Way to go, hippie.

*Possibly my favorite drone doom band this side of Sunn O))).

I didn't know Slakast was a band but now I'm obligated to check them out.

Jon - check out the Opeth song Heir Apparent. My god - it's incredible.

[Dr. Nguyen Van Falk]

I didn't know Slakast was a band but now I'm obligated to check them out.

Note: not actually a band.

Yet.

How's that guitar learnin' coming along?

It's been a while since I picked it up. It makes me sad just thinking about what was never going to be.

[Jon]

Sunn O))).

Oh, I like them, too.

[Slaky]

Jon - favorite Isis track?

Mine is Weight and it's really not even close. Brilliant track.

I thought about this for like 5 seconds, and realized I agree. Amazing.

[Jon]

Oh, sweet Jesus. I'm listening to it now.

I'm not really sure if they intended this result, but hearing this makes me want to go out on the tundra, and slay polar bears with my bear hands. Then take short acoustic breaks where I buy the surviving polar bears beers. Then slay the surviving bears.

Also, at one point about 2 minutes back I think I wanted to punch out the moon.

[Jon]

Oh, and "The Lotus Eater" makes me want to do the same thing, but at a weird gypsy carnival.

[Dr. Nguyen Van Falk]

Okay.

But which song gave you bear hands in the first place?

They all do.
