Killswitch Engage – To the Sons of Man Lyrics 14 years ago
I'm not really into faith, God or spirituality, but I do think that the message of the album on the whole is a good one. I'm of the opinion that we don't really need God or spirituality to believe in what's good and right - understanding, peace, goodwill, etc - that can all come from within. Everyone has free will, you can do what's right and take on challenges every day if you give yourself the strength to do it. This album talks a lot about other people and how we are really all the same - some people just need to realise how precious life is and how lucky we are to be here, and imagine what their lives would be without other people.

Plus, this album just kicks the crap out of later KsE albums (the ones I've listened to anyway...I haven't listened to their latest stuff yet)

Arch Enemy – Silverwing Lyrics 14 years ago
Silverwing is a giant white dragon with silver wings (hence the name!) that burninates all the cottages and melts faces with his awesome solos. The song is about Mike's love for Silverwing and how awesome his riffs and solos are. Silverwing is actually the being who writes most Arch Enemy's stuff - he comes down once every 3 years to write a good hundred or so riffs for Chris and Mike to use on their new albums. Most of the time Chris and Mike have to throw away about 50 or 60 of the riffs because they are just too good and would cause mass hospitalisation to metallers across the nation.

The latest Arch Enemy album (Rise of the Tyrant) is the result of Silverwing being more involved in the writing process - which is why half of my face is literally molten sagging flesh.

Chris actually uses the power of Silverwing when he plays his solos live as no mortal apart from Paul Gilbert (who's actually posessed by Satan) can play them.

This is all based on a true story.

Metallica – The End Of The Line Lyrics 14 years ago
Anyone else tried playing this song? I'm going to sue Metallica for giving my elbow RSI, and it won't be from hand shandies - it's from the constant downpicking all the way through this song!

Must...practice...downpicking....Dave....Mustaine.... rules...

Oops...

Metallica – The End Of The Line Lyrics 14 years ago
Two things:

1. Your tab is upside down

2. About 2 billion other songs use those same two chords because they are simple power chords...what's your point!?

It's akin to saying that Tom Clancy is a plagiarist because he used the words 'turned' and 'around' in once sentence in that order in one of his books.

Megadeth – Foreclosure Of A Dream Lyrics 14 years ago
I'm glad Metallica got rid of Mustaine, it meant that Mustaine could go on to form the far superior Megadeth and Metallica got stuck with Kirk 'Sloppy WAH' Hammett.

I can listen to Metallica...I might even enjoy some of it, but when it comes to technical ability, creativity and songwriting, Megadeth take the crown.

submissions
Megadeth – My Last Words Lyrics 14 years ago
The solo in this by Dave absolutely kills, and the climax of the song melts my face.

Awesome, defo about Russian Roulette, High Speed Dirt is also an awesome song! In fact 99% of early Megadeth is awesome.

Just love the bit where it switches from the thrashy main riffs to the solo backing then you get the chants of 'YOU' and 'COME ON' when he's going 'you next to die' - awesome! That's how you end a song tbh.

Metallica who?

Arch Enemy – In This Shallow Grave Lyrics 14 years ago
This... song... rips... faces.... off!

It eats picks for breakfast, it destroys elbow joints Jeff Hanneman style, it melts eyeballs and screams heads off!

What a tune, why has noone commented? The whole album is virtually flawless....this is coming from someone who thought Doomsday Machine and Wages were average with a couple of gems (Burning Bridges being one of the best!)

This one kicks Burning Bridges in the teeth!

Rihanna – Rude Boy Lyrics 14 years ago
Why are they allowed to play this filth on the radio that my 6 year old daughter can listen to - the song is awful anyway, it's pretty much porn on the radio and the melody and backing are both dreadful.

Shadows Fall – Final Call Lyrics 14 years ago
This song rocks the crud out of everything! The chorus is so anthemic!

Gotta be something to do with the crapiness of society and modern values, war maybe - I know Brian likes his spirituality and stuff so I'd imagine he's preaching a little about how corrupt everything is - he'd rather be an exile than be part of all the violence and war etc.

TUNE!

Shadows Fall – Still I Rise Lyrics 14 years ago
These are unbelievably bad...

Correct lyrics (minus one bit I'm not 100% on)

Stop searching the sky for answers
and look within
the greatest gift is the life we are given

This is the price you pay, throwing your whole life away

How can you know yourself
When your world is just a lie

Still I rise
From the ashes
From the ashes
Look inside, search for meaning
Truth can not survive
(Truth can not survive)

I feel the hate inside you, I watch it burn
You heard the warnings,
but you, you never learned

This is the price you pay, throwing your whole life away

Pretend to understand
You never even tried (this bit not 100% but sounds like it)

Still I rise
From the ashes
From the ashes
Look inside, search for meaning
Truth can not survive

Watch it burn
the hate inside you
No return, ignore the warning signs

Still I rise
From the ashes
From the ashes
Look inside, search for meaning
Truth can not survive


There you go. Good tune though!

Arch Enemy – Blood On Your Hands Lyrics 14 years ago
Arch Enemy are brutal, doesn't matter how melodic it gets it's brutal, you can go on and on about Deicide, Morbid Angel, Nile etc, yeah they are 'brutal' but you can't say AE aren't - that's like saying a 15 mile run is hard, but deadlifting heavy weight 50 times in a row isn't as tough. Two completely different flavours. Check out the second track on the album 'The Last Enemy' - totally crazy...

Anyway, I reckon like other people have said, the song is about killing each other :)

Arch Enemy – Taking Back My Soul Lyrics 14 years ago
Song is amazing - chorus is amazing, pity it comes from an album with not that many top quality songs - I think they made a better album in 2007s Rise of the Tyrant - but in terms of song quality this is definately one of Arch Enemy's best!

This and The Last Enemy are just belters! Get them on in your car and for your own sake watch your speed, I often find myself doing over 50 in urban zones because of this music :D

Trivium – Of Promethus and the Crucifix Lyrics 15 years ago
I think this is about being a martyr, doing something you think is right and facing the consequences - but braving them out and dealing with them like a hardcore sonbitch that can take getting his liver ripped out every night and be ready for it the next day!

And damn, this song is GOOD, the solo melts faces and the chorus riffs are awesome - I love the super high pitched Trivium harmonies in their solos, like on The Deceieved on Ascendancy.

Classic!

submissions
Slayer – Consfearacy Lyrics 15 years ago
I swear this Slayer song is the bestest evah! This goes up there with War Ensemble it's just a pure onslaught and the whole rhythm of the lyrics at this bit:

Still I know that in the end
I'm expected to pretend
That I can't think for myself
Blame it all on someone else
Half hearted smile
While you look the other way

Gets me every time, the solos are pro too - how can Kerry King just mess about on the whammy and put some random notes together but make it a memorable solo? It's crazy stuff!

Anyway, the song meaning is as Child_uv_KoRn says, it's about the whole US government and in some parts I think it's specifically about Bush. "I can't relate to your verbal idiocy", think of the number of times Bush has said something really stupid.

"Complacency is your demise" - i.e. if you don't do something about it and just sit on your arse being complacent you will pay the price!

Trivium – Insurrection Lyrics 15 years ago
Prob best song on album from what I've heard so far - it's certainly the one which flows the most, the other few that I've heard are a bit stop/start

Trivium starting to do my head in with the choruses though, might grow on me tho

Mastodon – Siberian Divide Lyrics 16 years ago
This song is an amazing finish to the album. Hearts Alive ended Leviathan with the perfect mood. This one really sets the scene of the despair of freezing on the mountain top, and that crazy chorus part with the mega chords, falsetto and screaming is epic! I like the way this ends with a non-conclusion, kind of like in The Thing, where he just about gets out alive but is freezing in the snow and is still going to die and the other guy could still be a 'Thing' - you just don't know! Epic epic storytelling in song format - let's hope they don't go an ruin it by making a film about it :D

Shadows Fall – Thoughts Without Words Lyrics 16 years ago
YEAH that riff at the ENCAGEDDD In A WORLDLLLLDLDL ... THAT FEARR CREATESSSS

That riff is just so Pantera - Great Southern Trendkill and is one of the best riffs ever!

The way you get the pinch harmonic leading into it.. Jon Donais cannot be touched man, pity the sound was crappy last time I went to see them - still they played some old stuff - maybe not enough off Art Of Balance which has become my fave album second to Of One Blood even...(by a thread)!!

It's just a pity where they are going with their sound, losing more of their better influences

Same thing that happened with Killswitch

Maroon 5 – Won't Go Home Without You Lyrics 16 years ago
I'm going to be negative - yes I know this is song'meanings' but listening to this song for 2 seconds on the radio I immediately spotted the guitar work from Every Breath You Take. The problem is, released in this day and age, the kiddies with no musical taste and no sense of history lap it up.

Maroon 5 are bad.

Avril Lavigne – I'm With You Lyrics 16 years ago
Avril makes me sick, shes got talent that's for sure, but wastes it on songs like sk8r boi or whatever it's called and that new I don't like your girlfriend crap.

If she made songs like this more often I'd respect her a little more. Makes me wonder though - which songs are really Avril and which are just the record company pop wondersongs?

Shadows Fall – Of One Blood Lyrics 16 years ago
Man if you think that solo in this song is fast, check out some bits of Ghosts Of Past Failures on their 'The War Within' album... I tabbed it and it's pretty close to spot on (most of the other tabs were completely rubbish)

Note that these are 16th notes at about 210 bpm... try playing this I'm convinced it's all legato...(paste into notepad :D)

Q=210
4/4

Avril Lavigne – Not The Only One Lyrics 17 years ago
Avril Lavigne is a waste of time - her lyrics are a joke and she has no sense of grammar - ironically just like rock chick...

'Why haven't anyone commented on this song?'
'There's other fishes in the sea'

Notice the pattern of gramatical incorrectness.

Also notice the fact that Avril has not a single shred of talent and she can manage about 3 chords on her guitar when she's pretending to play. I think she spends more time on makeup than she does on writing...

Pity that really because there are some REAL women musicians out there..
