Stuff im currently listening to

Alright, so I have started to re listen to a lot of the older British shit. I just love the dark ominous sound that is signature to our imperialist friends, the Brits. I've specifically been listening to the two bands Asphyx and Bolt Thrower. I love the doom metal breaks that seem to be in almost every Asphyx song. It is a nice slow, calm before the storm, impending doom sound. Now I like Bolt Thrower for their theme. They sing about the horrors of war, historical battles and wars, and manage to have some pretty kick ass guitar riffs thrown in as well. Now I'll leave you people with an example from each. Enjoy.

Beatles

Alright, so I'm still not to big a fan of the Beatles music, but I do however, like them as people. They seem pretty cool, and they also seem to have everything figured out. I also respect them in that they are a pretty big part of music history. They also seem like they'd be pretty fun to hang out with, I dig their witty British humor. I still just can't really get into their music, its just too happy and just sounds like the very beginning of pop music to me.

Beatles

I've never been into the Beatles. I think they are okay but I just don't like them, there music just doesn't interest me. I have found that all of there songs are just too slow and not melodic enough for me. A big part of music for me is the instruments, and the Beatles seem to me to be more vocal based than I like my music, the sound that Beatles have is just too boring for me. What I absolutely cannot stand is when people ask me if i like the Beatles and I say "no." they always seem to flip out and then they try to force their opinions on me. I do not care if they are the best band in world, I still just don't like them.

P.S. If there were to be a balls out conventional war with China and the U.S., China would seem like they would win, but their troop quality is piss poor compared to the average U.S. soldier. Chinese military doctrine indicates that infantry will charge en mass into melee with the enemy, only firing their guns from the hip to suppress the enemy. The Chinese would due to the U.S. gunning all of them down with our superior firepower. take massive casualties and they would lose the support for the war. Plus the Chinese would have to defeat the U.S. Navy if it wanted to invade us, and we have the best Navy in the world.

What im listening to

The band that I am currently into right now is Ceremonial Castings. They are a pretty sweet black metal band that is from the north west, and these guys have been out spreading the holy word of Satan since 1996. I started to get into them when I was listening to death.fm and I heard the awesome guitar intro of: A Thousand Fires.  It sounded like it was a "call to battle" if you will, that was calling me to stop zoning out and listen to this great song that will, as the kids are saying these days "blow your hat back". The rest of the song was what I found to be pretty good, I also found that the keyboard in the song was just as crazy as the guitar riffs and such.
