Take it easy, man, there's no hurry at all. Glad you liked Unleashed.

I leave this for everyone's consideration. I'm in a Viking Metal band (that label is wrong, as they throw in bands with different styles just because they sing about Vikings) and we're considering covering a song that has nothing to do with the style, such as House of the Rising Sun by The Animals.

Do you like when a group makes a cover of a radically different style or you just plain think they destroy the original? I leave you an example in the form of Losing my Religion revised by melodic Black Metal band Graveworm:

I think metal and punk do the best with covering songs from different genre's because they tend to be so much different. one of my favorite covers is lillasyster singing umbrella...originally a pop song.

ed sheerman is opening for taylor swift... hand meets face.

Torrented the new Axewound album to give it a listen since it is a British and Canadian supergroup and the Bullet for my Valentine vocals killed it for me :(, but I did like some of the instrumental work

Do you just not like his voice or something? I don't mind his voice but it isn't the greatest... it works pretty well for bfmv though.

I was fine with BFMV BEFORE Fever came out, I just don't really think Axewound is going to do all that well. The musical parts of the song are ok, I just am not a fan of the lyrics and think the voice stands out

I'm not a huge fan of BFMV but I like some of their music though.

I have said this before on this site and many have agreed but I'm wondering what you guys think... Do you think this generation of music is semi underrated? I mean if you overlook the crap and just look for quality there is alot to be found. I might even say it's as good other previous generations... they had sublime we have streetlight manifesto... they had nirvana we have foo fighters... etc etc etc.

The problem is it's such a flooded market now, more than ever. So, there's just more crap to water down the good stuff. And creativity suffers. Great example;
