    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 2, Matches 58-63

    It looks like Black (Sabbath) is the antithesis of light. Warlord has delivered the king from evil. What should you do when your cities are on flame? Embrace (of) the endless ocean. Amon Amarth. Deep Purple's space truckin' has no room for outlaws. Candlemass has closed the demon's gate on the...

    Official Hockey discussion thread

    I feel really bad for the Coyotes fans losing their team because there was never a good owner in the desert. But the current situation cannot continue for 5+ years as Meruelo tries to build an arena. Salt Lake City should be a really good place for a hockey team. Maybe the Coyotes will come...

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 2, Matches 58-63

    I guess we can't decide which Anthrax song we like most, so they'll split the game points in a tie. There's just no one like you, even at the witching hour, notes Scorpions. I guess Alice Cooper's nightmare is a German angel, absolutely not nominated by Perun. Rammstein. Led Zeppelin's black dog...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    Absolutely. If there wasn't so many Republicans wetting themselves to suck up to Putin, Ukraine would be far better off.

    Russia invades Ukraine

    The Baltic States are Article 5 territory. As long as NATO is not at war with Russia, they're protected by the threat of NATO force. If NATO *initiates* a war with Russia, it guarantees, well, war, and that means that the threat of NATO force is realized. You're right in that if Putin gets what...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    Yeah, I mean, I'll admit it's possible that Putin would back down if there was a full NATO intervention. I am skeptical. I think that at least there'd be a fight, possibly even an invasion of the Baltic States by the Russians. And it could get much, much worse, and that's not worth risking, even...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    The difference is that Iran has said they were not interested in further strikes; this was their idea of a measured counterattack for the attack on their Syrian Embassy. While it's possible that Putin would do nothing if NATO forces began directly shooting down his missiles, drones, and planes...

    Someone did, it seems I need to audit the spreadsheet again.

    JUDAS PRIEST ALBUM RANKING GAME: #8 REVEALED

    I put Stained Class at the top of my list. What a killer album and truly one of the bedrocks of heavy metal.

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 2, Matches 58-63

    It's always been Helloween's eternal dream to ride the sky. Deep Purple must have put Scorpions in trance during the black night. Ozzy's got more than toys in his attic. I feel like there's something to say about battle cries and Kashmir, but given the geopolitical situation on the subcontinent...

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 2, Matches 58-63

    I really think you're underestimating the impact of Rock Band III, @JudasMyGuide. It became a game everyone played, just at that one guy's house. Even I, who is no great fan of the Guitar Hero or Rock Band series, played it. The soundtrack has done incredibly well, so for most people who don't...

    The Greatest Metal Song Cup - Part II, Round 2, Matches 58-63

    It's one of those rounds when I read @Jer's writeup and find myself nodding along to every point. I don't always agree but from time to time yep, this is pretty well my view as well. Especially on the last matchup, I find it wild that Angra isn't doing better. Such a neat sound, complex play...
