So, I'm just posting to tell people where they can find some reviews. The Koffin and Edge of Time are two of the better ones out there(that means they're free :). I was impressed to learn that when the Koffin reviewed ACoS when it came out, that they gave it a high rating(something like 8 or 9 out 10). That really caught me off guard. This is one of those zines that looks more into heavy than technical. But, the reason I'm even posting this is to spa--I mean, to...uh...tell you that they got some cool reviews in the current issue. No DT, but, Quiet Room, Thought Industry(only 4 out of 10), and Galactic Cowboys. And before I write another NDTC paragraph let me just say... ONLY ANOTHER 8,174 WFS's till FII!!!(starting midnight tonight) I don't think that's enough times for a poser like me to learn the lyrics! :( ;-) The Edge of Time is an e-zine for pretty much only progressive bands. This is the one that Spinal(or Spiral?) Architect(First, it's too long... :). It's good, but, the bands really just think they're so great. It knows bores me, actually.

Anybody else like to see this? Since, I now know HTML(it took me forever to learn ;) and have a web space that I can actually upload to, I can start it. Not a FAQ, but more like past crap on the jam! :) Also, besides Y&J, and the visual music thread, what should be up there?

I don't think that "Lords of Sound" is worth $50, but only $35 (it has "Learning to Live" edited and the sound lacks some higher frequencies). The great things are live versions of "Eve" and "To Live Forever". Well, "Wake Up" is the same boot as "Mind Control", with a lot less editing (for instance, LaBrie says something about the show being broadcast that "Mind Control" doesn't have). It has decent sound quality and I think that it is a bargain for $25 (it is a double CD). If you are interested in the JPPV, then you may get it from Melissa Barh for $10 (they have the broadcast and they are selling copies from their SVHS source). Email for more information. Unfortunately, I don't know anything about Queenryche. Hope this helps, Roger... P.S.: I'm posting this to the 'jam because more people may be interested in knowing it. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Rogerio Brito - email_address_removed.br - http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito Undergraduate Computer Science Student - "Windows?

Well, thanks to Mattew Teiper, I've heard "Tales from the Thousand Lakes", "My Kantele" and "Black Winter Day" (I already had "Elegy"). I think that "Elegy" is as good as "Tales from the Thousand Lakes", but the latter seems to be a bit repetitive at times. I'd really love to hear a 10 or 15 minute song by these guys tough.

Maybe it's just my bias > because I'm a drummer and think 6:00 is about the best drumming song > you'll ever hear..... I think 6:00 is such a great song to go [cut for fear of being banned by bringing back visual music thread]. :) But, seriously I catch myself saying all these things, weird beps and bops(like when you're slapping and popping) while air drumming. I don't know where they come from. I don't that to any other song(DT or otherwise). And, yes I've tried to play what was in my head. And, all I have to say is MP plays around way too much with the beat.

He has an Ibanez RG??? (Vince, help me out), and when he installed it, the included screws were too long and broke/cracked the piece of wood the was using. He fixed that with some wood glue. So, check your screws and make sure everything fits.

Download a demo in Roland homepage. 2- At 100bmp, shouldn't 4/4 sound just like 4/8? I heard some people say that one 4/4 measure = two 4/8 measure. Also, when at the beggining of the songs appears [insert quarter note here]=80, doeas this mean there are 80 bmp? |-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-| | We are: FleXable (Francisco Miguel) & Apicultor (Pedro Filipe) | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| | "Practice, practice, practice" - Michael Angelo | | "Hello me, it's me again..." - Dave Mustaine | | "We may be human, but we're still animals" - Steve Vai | | "Happy Happy Happy Joy Joy Joy" - Ren & Stimpy | | "My brother likes Dragon Ball.

They are pretty cool, but their older stuff is much better. I personally prefer My Dying Bride, Paradise Lost, and Ulver for gothic, evil sounding stuff. > I'm anxiously awaiting Amorphis "Elegy."

It rivals "Tales..." as the best album. My Kantele is the new EP that was jsut released, so wherever you got that, I am sure you'll find Elegy there.

I have Moonspell's "Wolfheart" and "Irreligious". I like the band quite a bit, for their dark and looming sound. They are all from Brazil to my knowledge, and the vocalist sounds like Dracula! I don't look to them for musical inspiration, as they are not the most advanced band around, but they have a great dark sound which changes from heavy hitting to slow and melodic at times. · • Colonel Mustard • · ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 09 Aug 1997 13:52:46 -0700 From: email_address_removed To: email_address_removed Subject: Dr. Katz rocks nads! Message-ID: Hi everyone, I was watching Dr. Katz on Comedy Central today. And one of guys on couch brought up something that's been talked about here. This is a very loose quote so don't hold me to the exact words. "Docter, I bought a CD of a group I don't even like! This ever happen to you? It's, like, you hear it so much, you're, like, "MUST...HAVE...COOLIO." Well, I put my foot down this time! I returned the CD. And bought a CD of Indian music from India! There's this one song, it's 59 minutes! And the drum don't come in till 20 minutes into the song! But, you know, if you're *really* listening they couldn't come in any earlier. So, I played it for my friend. And 19 minutes into the song he's, like, "this sucks." But then the drums came in at 20 minutes and he's, like, "this rules!""
