@SleepingSilence Not my favourite DTP song, but still 8.5/10 because Devin Townsend and the fact that he's been able to find his groove again with the added benefit of sobriety. Giving Strapping Young Lad a chance was the best choice I ever made.

Ditto. I could forsee a few humourous interactions between our characters. Perhaps another time.

@Mistress Dizzy, @KatherinWinter Sorry, some factors beyond my control have come up and I have to drop out from the RP. Thanks for the fun everyone, hopefully I'll see you all elsewhere. Sorry for the abruptness, but it's something I quite literally just realised myself. I hope it's not too much of an inconvenience considering how new Modlen is to the RP.

@Mistress Dizzy, @Caits, @KatherinWinter? Thoughts?

@Aristo Finally, my Old English classes from Uni have paid off. I'm 100% certain I pronounced the band and song name correctly instead of pronouncing "ð" as "D". My metal street cred rises.

But I dig it. Typically the farthest I venture into the realm of Black/Death metal is Burn The Priest or Gutworm. I guess Dethklok and DevilDriver count too. I've been meaning to listen to some SAMAEL, I've heard a few of their tracks but never got around to sitting through a full album. I rediscovered Type O Negative as well, so I'm on a bit of a Doom kick right now.

Overall, 8/10, maybe 8.5. They sound like the kind of band that have that one song which, the moment I hear it, I'm all in and getting their entire discography, listening to stuff that hadn't grabbed me before, but suddenly I'm saying "Oh shit, I never noticed this part! Fucking oath!"

Anyway, here's some Industrial Doom Stoner (?) Metal from Jason Novak of Acumen Nation.

@SleepingSilence 7/10. Kind of reminds me of Skillet and the like. They're talented musicians but I've never been into predominantly clean vocals from male singers. Throw in a female vocalist and I get into it, like with Flyleaf or something. Usually a song really has to grab me to get into it, like Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve or very few select Radiohead songs, like Idioteque.

Speaking of strong vocals and lyrics, these French bastards have that in spades:
