anyways, back to the issue at hand: still looking - Mon, 10 Nov 2003 8:00pm

HAHAHA Mucus and Bile looks like he would weigh 120 lbs soaking wet!! Dont listen to that mouth piece, he is ALL talk.

And furthermore he is a goof for coming in here when this kid is trying to find band members and slagging him or threatening him.. has anyone listened to the death metal band he is going to play for in Germany? Impure? I mean, they fuckin SUCK. Monotonous blasting bullshit completely reminiscent of 100's of other bands who have already done it 100's of times. And yes, I really do like death metal. - Thu, 13 Nov 2003 7:21am

I agree.
He is ALL TALK.

I still can't get of the drop-G shit..... I can't even fucking imagine that.... That's, like, a 7-string tuned down two full steps, right? Jesus..... Can you even distinguish between the different notes on the lowest octave? - Thu, 13 Nov 2003 10:09pm
Matt

yes, it's EASILY distinguishable
it's an unconventional tuning - Thu, 13 Nov 2003 11:30pm

So what if Im not in a band? I have ears and an opinion. But, whats this? You can dish it out but you cant take it? Its ok for you to hack on some kids trying to start something up, because you are the ohh so worldly blast beat drummer? Give me a break, your drumming might be so-so but your no pro. And threatening to punch a kid for playing numetal is lame and cowardly. Go stick your head up Grishnack's bum you lamer. - Fri, 14 Nov 2003 11:43am

Hehehe... your a spaz matt ;)

Korn Koiler if you don't like some one thats fine. I have just seen a video of M&B drumming and saying hes just so-so is just dumb. I dought there is another drummer in victoria who can play what hes doing. The word PRO comes to mind FOR SURE! I wish he was staying in town to jam with me haha.

Hey Matt have you played in a band before? Are you stuck on the Alt metal idea or are you more open minded to more types of metal? - Sun, 16 Nov 2003 9:12am

User Info...
right blizzard i'm a HUGE spazz
you're new here...and you obviously haven't read any of my previous ads (which always end up off topic, which sucks)

i have played in several bands before, many different styles
basiclly i'm sick of speed metal, i'm sick of standard tunings, and i've been playing in my low tuning for so long, that any other tuning sounds thin to me (not dissing you guys who play in standard, it just doesnt work for me)
ANYWAYS
hopefully i can find some like-minded musicians - Sun, 16 Nov 2003 10:34am

BlizzardBlaster. There are other drummers in this city who can play as good as and better than MandB. Not to say he isnt good, but he is far from the only one, and he is still young, although judging by his ad in musicians seeking he thinks he is the only metal drumer in the city. Oh he made sure he sent you his video huh? Being an attention whore as usual. Anyways, I think most drummers can blast accurately if they try for a couple of years, but that dont mean shit. Anyway, I just think MandB has an over-inflated ego which I have fun taking pokes at.

Hey to back answer a question MandB asked me once, so what bands have YOU been in Mucus? I mean, your the best metal drummer in Victoria, you must have played a shitload of gigs? - Mon, 17 Nov 2003 7:34am

Mucus and Bile fucking kicks ass on drums! I've jammed with several local so-called metal drummers that dont come close to his skills. Plays good drunk too... - Mon, 17 Nov 2003 12:14pm

Never actually seen M and B play so I cant comment, but I have seen Death Metal Dave play and he is really good, so is Lincoln of Pariah, in my opinion those two are easily at the top of the Victoria pile of metal drummers as far as ability to not only blast but to also play diverse jazz type weirdness at high speed.. It might sound biased as DMD has recently joined my band, but seriously, the guy has some excellent skill as a drummer and studies death metal drumming intensely.. he has good blasts and good beats and his skill as a guitar player makes him really easy to work with. - Mon, 17 Nov 2003 1:13pm

yeah, jammed with MandB once and was blown away. Fuckin eh, the guy is joining Impure, technical as fuck and a legitimate band.

As for other drummers in this town, i'd have to fully agree that Allfather's drummer is intense and of course Doug from Repulverizer/Peruke. - Mon, 17 Nov 2003 5:07pm

I think Matt has a good point, and he is hardly spazzing.
The kid just wants to start a band or whatever, and guys are changing the thread into something else.
What a spazz he is!
Good luck kid.

dudes Mucus & Bile is the real deal. the dude can blast like no one's business. i've never seen anyone else do that shita round here, not Undergo, not Lythic Shit, not the Armchair Girlnics and certainly not those Hot Hot Heat wieners. Do most of you know how hard it actually is to play drums in a band like Impure, or any death metal band for that matter? Most drummers can't do double-kick worth shit.

Hey Blizzardblaster, how old are you? You play guitar right? - Tue, 18 Nov 2003 6:34pm
