These guys are pretty interesting

Sludge Metal is one of my favorite subgenres.

I'm so excited.

ElfSlice

Scar Symmetry is such a douchebag name though

Man it's been so long since I've listened to this stuff

Mechanical Loon

I couldn't find Opeth under Melodic Death Metal and got sad...until I saw Swedish Death Metal.

ElfSlice

04:03

Insomnium is the only melodic death metal you need

Actually I'm not sure what Insomnium is

progressive metal?

Mechanical Loon

@ElfSlice Uh, Opeth >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Insomnium

Insomnium is great.

Opeth is just that much better.

ElfSlice

I have actually never listened to Opeth

I suck at listening to stuff I don't know

@ElfSlice When I saw them live their shit sounded just as good as the studio version. It blew my mind.

ElfSlice

@MechanicalLoon You gotta be careful with metal bands and ilve performances. Sometimes the vocalist sounds like shit live

I've linked my favorite song to you before. Your Internet couldn't handle it.

The opeth one?

Mechanical Loon

No, it's by Dream Theater.

ElfSlice

Oh

user15026

@MechanicalLoon oooh, which one?

LessPop_MoreFizz

04:12

No. It's one of the only two genres of music of which I find the surrounding nerdery to be more insufferable than metal. (And no, I'm not calling any of you people insufferable. Well, maybe gnomeslice.)

I dunno, I never got into Dream Theatre

Q: Is there a car faster then the adder in GTA V?

I have heard that there is a car in the game modeled after the "Fusion Coil" that is supposedly the fastest car in the game. Is this just a rumor, or actually true?

grand-theft-auto-5

LessPop_MoreFizz

@frost: edm/techno/trance/dubstep, and people who primarily or exclusively listen to music which has appeared in other media or remixes thereof.

I'm particular the latter, I just have zero patience for.

Mechanical Loon

I once played Opeth and Strapping Young Lad and such out of the jukebox at a shitty dive bar when I was drunk. The management turned the music down until my playlist was through.

ElfSlice

04:16

@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm not generally a fan of remixes, so there's that at least

LessPop_MoreFizz

Like, yeah, that song in that video game was great and it fit the moment perfectly. But the fact that your 'music collection' is 4000 hours of nothing but chrono trigger remixes tells me that you have no actual taste.

ElfSlice

@LessPop_MoreFizz Haha. Yeah, that.

I rarely listen to music from other things.

Mechanical Loon

Every single remix of Get Lucky by Daft Punk is better than the original.

Best cover ever

user15026

My favourite concert I went to was a Within Temptation concert - part for the music, and part because I was using my cane that night, and ended up unable to stand, so I was curled up on the floor near the bar, and the bartender hunted me up one of those tall bar chairs even though they had all been cleared to make room, and set me up in a spot where he made sure I could see.

user15026

@MechanicalLoon I would agree with you

@MechanicalLoon Even Get Clucky?

Mechanical Loon

@ElfSlice Especially Get Clucky.

@LessPop_MoreFizz I think I may understand what you like about Anamanaguchi

I don't know how to describe it

it's all drums and guitar sounding. Like the kind of thing people could play on the sidewalk. with chiptunes added in

I'm dumb

You're not far off!

@LessPop_MoreFizz WAIT I THINK I GOT ONE YOU WILL LIKE

LessPop_MoreFizz

Anamanaguchi is essentially a power pop band that uses a game boy as an instrument, rather than a band that tries to make video game music.

ElfSlice

@LessPop_MoreFizz That's what I said

LessPop_MoreFizz

@elfslice you are wrong, but this is so much closer.

@LessPop_MoreFizz I listened to the whole weather and liked it this time.

ElfSlice

Also these guys are from Ottawa. I went to college with a guy who went to highschool with them

LessPop_MoreFizz

@elfslice the thing you need to understand is that I have probably listened to more music than you've forgotten, and I place an enormous amount of value on things not sounding like something I have heard before.

ElfSlice
