Caring and Killing

Fri, 27 Oct 2000 18:09:29 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - The caring and killing album by Converge on Hydrahead records is a collection of their early works, it shows the complete transition from the early metal, almost ass-rock early days, to the beginning of the style that they play now. Some of these songs...

Tue, 21 Mar 2000 19:53:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - So I have been using egroups now for awhile mostly to learn stuff and see what other people are doing, especially when it comes to making money on the internet.

TheMail: memories

Thu, 16 Mar 2000 08:02:44 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - Themail.com is perhaps one of the greatest ideas around right now. As the name implies you are supposed to be paid for reading and writing email. Well the only way for this to happen is to refer yourself, which they do allow, and then use this second...

Sun, 5 Mar 2000 01:00:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - This album is a bit off of the track for Coalesce, the entire album is covers of Led Zeppelin songs. Coalesce does their versions of: "immigrant song" "heartbreaker" "black dog" "out on the tiles" "whole...

Oh My My

Sun, 5 Mar 2000 00:40:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - The Dillinger Escape Plan are the best thing out there today. I say thing because they are better than everything not just other bands. I saw them a few days ago and when they started playing my jaw dropped to the floor and stayed there for their...

Thank God For Worker Bees

Sun, 5 Mar 2000 00:26:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - Botch is another one of those crazy "metal-core" bands. They are from Seattle and have been around for a few years now. They are starting to get big with their second full length release on Hydrahead Records. American Nervoso is the first...

Giddy like a school Girl

Sun, 5 Mar 2000 00:10:45 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - I'm not normally a big fan of the "emo" scene but something about Piebald keeps me coming back to them when I can't decide what to listen to. They are hillarious their songs are witty as can be. They are also very talented musicians. Their...

This is not your war

Sat, 4 Mar 2000 23:57:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - Converge is considered by many today to be the kings of "metal-core." They have been around for quite some time and had several releases previous to "petitioning the empty sky" but this is the one that got them noticed by most of...

eBay: anything and everything

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - Everybody is always talking about Ebay, and well I'm one of them, it seems you can find everything you've ever wanted at Ebay.com. There are a few exceptions but not too many.

All the services that they have are sometimes overwhelming,...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - I purchased these shoes about a year ago and when I did I was in kind of a hurry and ended up getting a pair that was slightly to small for me. After a few weeks they began to come apart at the toe, so I returned them and finally got a pair that fit me...

Hot Water Music: so many releases

Fri, 3 Mar 2000 17:26:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - How is it possible for a band to have so many releases and have each one rock just as hard as the previous one. These are the hardest workers in independent music today, constantly touring, writing songs, recording songs, and playing shows. They have a...

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 17:02:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - My friend let me borrow this video not too long ago and I instantly fell in love with it. The boys in this band put so much energy into their performance and feel so strongly about what they believe and sing about, that you can't help but be inspired by...

three towed tree sloth

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 16:44:25 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - I'm sorry but Freei.net did not work out for me. I found their service to be slow but on the plus side there was never a busy signal. Sometimes you don't have the time to wait around for 10 minutes while a web page loads into your browser.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - J.R.R. Tolkien completed a masterpiece when he wrote the last words to "The Hobbit". He takes you on a trip to another time and another place and makes you feel as if you were there. Untimely knocking at doors that will lead only to...

Mon, 28 Feb 2000 21:11:42 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - The Dillinger Escape Plan is my favorite band of all time they blend chaos with beauty like nobody else. The frantic beats that this band produce are second to none. This EP only has 3 songs which will leave you craving more by this insane...

Record Labels: revelation records

Mon, 28 Feb 2000 21:00:54 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - Revelation Records has been putting out quality hardcore bands for a long time now and has earned quite a reputation, but as of late I haven't been seeing as many quality releases.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - I have had an account at Hotmail for several years now and through all that time I do not remember ever having any problems. It's not as convenient as using a home based email service, but for those who aren't at home all the time or those who share...

Mon, 28 Feb 2000 00:12:34 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - What were the boys in this band thinking when they got Ronnie James Dio to sing for them, he was the worst thing that could ever happen to Black Sabbath. He did no justice to the art that was Ozzy, I"m not saying that I am completely pro Ozzy but I...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - We are the youth of today... this is one of the bands who helped to make hardcore known, Ray's annoying drawn out vocals will always be remembered, I don't understand how he went from this to Shelter.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - The Murder City Devils are one of those bands, that are looked down upon by some and admired by others, rising from the dust of the Deathwish Kids, an awesome fast punk band with female vocals, the Murder City Devils have become a band with awesome stage...

Sun, 27 Feb 2000 23:45:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - "Why why oh why oh why, why is it always like this?" I'm afraid I got into this band too late after they had already broken up. It's a crying shame, everything I have ever heard by them is amazing, so catchy you just can't help but love this...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author spellofmaya - My last trip to Mt. Shasta Ski Park was in the middle of January. It hadn't snowed much at that time but all of the runs were open and accessible. We only went up for half of the day which was a good thing, it was fairly crowded but the lines weren't...
