Alright, little bit of a retro ha thing but there we are.

Danzig was at my place tonight (et al) and I'll give him/them points for probably being the politest fuckers ever. I mean, most of the competition is horrid but this crew was gold.

I'm pretty sure it's just a hipster thing, it's boring awful music that will pass by soon enough.

What is it about music like this that people find enjoyable? I can get into just about any type of metal at least a little bit, but stuff like this just sounds like diarrhea to me.

It's not boring, I don't mind some good sludge or death but that's only background music to me. If I'm trying to get hyped on something, I need something that's not just 16th note double bass and growlies.

As much as I want it to be boner town, it's not. New Russian Circles song and it's super mellow which Empros was super light but sad to see them go in the Mogwai post-rock direction instead of the Isis direction. I bet there are some hard hitting songs on the album but they definitely aren't doing another Geneva with this one.

Can anyone recommend some good bands/albums for me? I've been on a huge Blind Guardian kick lately.. really loving the song lyrics, the intense choruses, the layered vocals on certain choruses, the basis of the songs (GRRM, Jordan, Tolkien. Which power metal bands out there also have similar stuff to BG?

I've listened to Hammerfall and it is instantly ruined by the vocalist. Music is good though.

I used to listen to Rhapsody and loved the song Emerald Sword by them. I've listened to a little Helloween but haven't really given them a fair shake. Any suggestions?

You might like Iced Earth. They're a little heavier/thrashier but were a great band with Barlow on vocals.
