I dig most of those! I really like Alice In Chains. Not too long ago, I went through everything I could on Youtube of Layne Staley. Read a bunch of articles too. Crazy how bad he let drugs **** him up. He holed himself up in his apartment, didn't talk to anybody, and just done dope and played video games by himself with the occasional friend stopping by every now and then. They got together in the studio after a bit of a break and when Layne showed up, nobody recognized him. He lost all his teeth, looked like ass, and skinny as a rail. In some of the songs he recorded during that time, you can notice he pronounces some words funny due to lack of teeth. Didn't take long for the drugs to take his life.

Funny how some like him just go hardcore full-on raging dopehead and dies early on, then you got ones like Scott Weiland from Stone Temple Pilots that was full on raging dopehead and lives past 50 before the drugs finally got him.

I couldn't imagine being so caught up in something capable of ruining your life so quickly.

Adtr is one of my faves. Messengers from August burns red is a bad mother of an album. Also dig some 80s metallica. No grunge for this dude though.

I like the fact that you named Ghost first. I thought about going to that show but I think I want to see Ghost as the headliner next.

I like different music and they are definitely different. I ran across Ghost while watching some of the festival videos that Babymetal played.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't more excited to see Volbeat than Metallica. Should be a hell of a damn show though.

Hung himself after playing a show last night. Deader than a doornail. Survived by wife and 3 kids. ****ing cowardly way out, depression/addiction or not.

pholmann · May 19, 2017

Well, Knoxville's without a new rock station and has been for a couple years now. Any new good music? Seether has a new song out that is ****ing awesome. Share if you know any new good music.

Re:

The entire new Mastodon album - Emperor of the Sands - is my new favorite ****. I bet I have listened to it start to finish 75-100 times since it came out. To start with, I didn't like some of the songs on it, but the more I listened to it, there are little gems in each song and now I like the whole album. I would rank it in my top 3 favorite albums ever.

Songs to listen to as a first time listener:

Steambreather
Sultan's Curse
Ancient Kingdom
Jaguar God

Roots Remain was one song I didn't care for so much at first, but now it is one of my favorites.

Mastodon really stepped their game up with this album. It is a 4 member band, and 3 of them sing including the drummer. The drummer's name is Brann Dailor and he is ****ing awesome. He is the higher pitched clean vocalist that starts out Steambreather with "Running outside the Nazca Lines...."

Anyways, Mastodon isn't for everyone, this album is much more palatable than previous albums, maybe you will dig it.

Turn that Sirius satellite radio on in that truck man, awesome music stations on there, all kinda mix of rock stations I listen to classic vinyl and classic rewind which is 70-80' s. Ozzies boneyard and lithium and many more, new rock is hit and big miss, I prefer what I know
