Why shouldnt we see her bottom, Greenie ? 

Nicky, I'm beginning to suspect you're being confusing on purpose.  Cut it out -- that's my job.  I'm not sure what that album has to do with the viewing or lack thereof of Ms. Vega's backside, but at any rate, she's never seen fit to discuss the matter with me.  Perhaps you might convince her to be more forthcoming on the subject, although I suppose that depends on how tight a leash Ms. 007 keeps on you.   


NP: Nightwish - Dark Passion Play

I have no data on the bottoms of the members, past or present, of this band.  I think it's statistically likely that they have one apiece though.  And yes, I know you're not a Nightwish fan, Nicky, but I like them, so.

Nicky, I'm beginning to suspect you're being confusing on purpose.

Yeah ok, I was a bit too fast there:  On the screen that I had at the library, the bottom part of the text seemed to have disappeared, and I saw that you had fiddled with (not Suzanne but) the text; right now I discovered that it was only the sup for the o. Well, I guess I wasted you guys' time ... but then again, some of you guys have wasted my time, so I guess it's tit for tat 

Cut it out

The bottom ? 


NP  Suspyre  on  MySpace

A very mixed bag:  Sometimes sounds like Spock's, throw in some Redemption, some Tangent, DT, Metallica - quite a rollercoaster ride 

At this point, I like the rocky parts best 

But certainly somethin for Roomies (confusing for the confused) 

Let's see what you guys think .....

http://www.myspace.com/suspyre

Wiki - Suspyre:  "Suspyre's sound is heavily influenced by a wide variety of musicians and bands, including Dream Theater, Opeth, Symphony X, Igor Stravinsky, Mahler, Mozart and Bach."

MySpace - Suspyre:  "Formed in 2001, Suspyre's brand of melodic metal can be attributed to the band members' wide range of influences. These talented, young musicians from New Jersey have discovered an energetic and gifted way of combining progressive rock and symphonic metal with classical and jazz fusion."

Mad, I consider SW to be much more than a "good" metal band:  I find that they have definitely carved their own special niche in progmetal - nobody sounds like SW - and now they'r among the most exciting progmetal bands around, in class with Circus Maximus, DT, SyX

I'v done my best to avoid G3, cause it appeared to be too much show to my taste, but of course JP's gotta be great no matter where and what, and here he takes his time to develop things, and Mike's doin the drums

Guys, ya gotta see this too

Yeah, that actually is a pretty good performance of both DT and Queensrÿche.
JP is close to perfection here, though of course no one can compete with the original.

NP  Meshuggah:  Catch Thirtythr33

I'm having severe problems with this one. I'v started several times on it, only to stop after some 10-15 minutes. This time I'm starting at track 4 

Tom (or anyone else), you gotta tell me what you think is so great about it

Snap!


Nevermore - The Year of the Voyager

[Nicky007]

OK, Jonesy, at least you should have the b*s to tackle Jeff Loomis.

Guys, here's your opportunity to hear one'o the greatest progmetal guitarists around.

I found a version of the track Jato Unit from Zero Order Phase that's slightly different from the original studio version.

If ya like this piece, then you can click further to other great tracks.


So guys, remove yer wigs, dentures etc, raise the volume & yer b*s, and here we go:

Doomsday Afternoon and Seven - Phideaux

Speak to me of Phideaux.  He/they sound intriguing, but I've heard very little of the music.  They also seem to play a lot of U.S. prog fests, so there's some chance I could actually see them.

NP: Riverside - ADHD

Damn, these guys are just so good. 

[Nicky007]

NP  Gazpacho  on  MySpace

I certainly share you guys' enthusiasm for this band. They have a sure sense of melody, and are very original and varied 

Problem is I still havent found any of their albums in Cop 

Searching for good prog in Cop is like looking for intelligence in a blonde ... except that Ms 007 is blond - hm

I would say go and see them.

I only have 2 of their CD's the ones that are mentioned above and have only played them a few times but what I hear I like.

A lot more proggy than metally.

I think Sir Mad of Dox has a few of their CD's as well.

[maddox]

I think Sir Mad of Dox has a few of their CD's as well.

Yep, i have. 

I only have Chupacabras, Doomsday Afternoon and NO. 7.

It's good music but i tend to only listen to it once in a while.
There are albums which i can listen to on repeat, but that doesn't work for Phideaux. It's intelligent music though.
