Man, that Lollapalooza lineup is ridiculous. Funny how much better it looks to me now (age 31) than it did when I was in high school and they were coming to Seattle where I lived. I don't want to be the old guy at the concert, at least not until I can afford a cabana for me and my friends (www.lollapalooza.com/tickets/cabanas/index.html). Maybe once I'm practicing in Sun Valley, many years after residency.

Caught Opeth last night in Pittsburgh. Swedish black metal is usually not my bag, but these guys are on top of their game, and the heaviest live show I have seen in a dozen+ years, and I've seen many, many concerts. Metal-geek quality musicianship and a disgustingly heavy live show. Upcoming dates here:

and if you can't get past the throat-singing, you're just missing out on the music... check the second clip for his normal singing voice..

I've been mildly in Opeth for a couple years but never enough to buy one of their albums.



What's their best couple of tracks?

That's a tough call. I think people get different things out of different Opeth songs. I only own two albums - Blackwater Park and Watershed. Pretty much anything off of those albums is a safe bet. Bleak, Lotus Eater, Omega Hex, The Drapery Falls, Harvest (acoustic)...

Bleak

and a great song from the album of the same name - Deliverance

You guys should check out Dredg. They have some of that Tool-like complexity you're looking for. I saw them back in college, and I still find myself telling people about that show to this day.

Also, Kings of Leon have gotten pretty big of late, but they still rock pretty hard. "Sex on Fire" is one of my favorite songs right now.


I've been listening to Dredg- Catch Without Arms and I like it a lot. Thanks, man.

SaltyDog: gotta majorly disagree, and then agree, with you.

Dredg is NOT AT ALL like Tool...not heavy or dark really at all...complex maybe. They have a new one out which seems even lighter almost poppy.

But yea, Kings of Leon, good band and you can't go anywhere without hearing them right now...
 
I dunno if we've talked about Mastodon on SDN Anesthesia before...but since there seem to be some heavy music fans in tow...

The new Mastodon "Crack the Skye" is effing incredible. Check it.
