take that te_chris. you see its so easy to criticize someone bout their music (even though i dout u have a musical bone in ur body) but then people with some actual musical knowledge (me not included) will come along and kick ur ass for it. ha ha

this will definatly be the highlight of my year

WTF? Gwar own all "masked" metal bands. (except for early Mr Bungle perhaps)

The song MEAT SANDWICH is testimony to this, it kills anything Lordi have done. Plus the fact that they predate Lordi by decades.

Dude, their live shows are awesome, and their songs are better.

Lordi's music is average at best. Party fistbanging stuff like Andrew WK.

The Valves are the latest announcement.

Not my cup of tea, but I'm happy for them, they've worked really hard.

I doubt it's gonna be a total metalfest unfortunately.

I agree baphomet, I would love to see Cradle Of Filth even though Dani Filth sounds like a girl when he talks - he still has a fucking awesome singing voice.
Rob Zombie - he is a legend (despite what you say KING ) can't wait to see his new movie

And the tickets prices are pretty reasonable considering who is going to be there. I paid $200 to go see Manson, I'd definitly pay a lot more than that to see Ozzy.


P.S Sorry about my random input every now and again - this website runs so god damn slow on my computer I don't have the patience to check it often.

Hahaha, that little flea. His fake "low" gothic voice always cracks me up. He's having trouble with those "banshee screams" he's known for recently (must be cuz he's getting older), recent live stuff I've seen is downright embarrasing. I'd still go see them though, I love the first two albums especially.

THE FOREST WHISPEEEEEERS MY NAAAAAAAAAAAAAME

I like how they're kinda half taking the piss... yet all these mall goths show up to their gigs all necro and grim looking

Damn young whipper snappers!

I guess he hasn't had a huge single since "Poison" came out, that must have been 1990 or so, the musical "short term memory" of youth today ain't so flash.

Actually it's not that surprising, I've met people who don't know who David Bowie is
