Action does not need belief as an impetus. Isn't there a difference between reaction and response?

I never said belief can't be powerful, nor completely useless. When writing on these boards we make fairly short statemnets, these are obviously not all encompassing, but I do try to distill the very essence of what I mean. Obviously belief is extremely powerful (for some). Let's look at some...

Yep, there can't be satanists without christianity just as there can't be christianity without judaism. They are all one. The actual origin of satan was not that he was a bad guy, just a servant of god, testing humans for weakness on god's behalf. Belief is about intrepretations, about...

Those who espouse and practise the satanic belief. There are those who take such a belief in the literal sense, and there are those who take the metaphorical stance, it matters not the intrepretation if one takes up the actual practise of summoning a power of assumed darkness, of evil. Satanists...

Sorry, but I never said it was easy for a drug addict nor any form of addict to get beyond their root cause of addiction, I thought I implied that quite clearly by what I wrote. My point was that Dave's own decision was his decision, yet he transposed that onto a God. To me that is a serious...

Got this book from my wife, what a great read, giving a real insight into Dave Mustaine as a person. So many biographies are just a rehash of known stories, happenings, events, but this book gets to the core of what Dave was/is. Having given up reading the music papers/mags way back in the late...

I wouldn't compare say Dio with the Ozzy period. Sabbath were mindblowing in the 70's, and those albums still hold their ground, musically and lyrically. Progess is progress, but Sabbath 70's, 80's or 90's, totally different. It's like Maiden. I still prefer Paul as a singer, but would never say...

I love the sound of vinyl too, I think it's got a fuller richer sound that CD's never seem to replicate. There's no reason that a WAV or MP3 shouldn't capture that fullness tho. The only thing with vinyl was all the gunk it would collect, scratches making tracks jump around. Another plus was the...

I still prefer Paul as a singer. He's just sounds more raw, more guts. Sometimes it's as if Bruce is in a carry-on version of Maiden (as in the Carry-On films of the 70's), which is alright, but I got into them in the early days and guess that Paul and the original line up have stuck in my...

Watched Metallica/Lou Reed last night, sounds so much better live... http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0 ... Episode_8/

Still seems like double standards to me, it's not just the recording that has copyright but the actual composition. So if you take offence at some old footage (okay Rock in Rio is official, but I would claim the fair use policy of copywrite as the quality was pretty shoddy and merely an intro to...

C.J. is great, injected new life into the Ramones, that's for sure.

And what's your problem. Well, I can guess, no sense of humour. If I feel like saying/opening a thread, I do so. If I get banned, do you really think I'd care. Some folks around here are freindly, some are not. Do I care, no. I live in the real world and that's sadly how it is. Too many ego's...

I received an email from Perun threatening to ban me as I post links to a streaming concert of Maiden way back in the early days with Paul DiAnno and a few others with Bruce, but here's a section for bootlegs. Are you guys selling these or giving them away? Those links I posted were not for any...

What is it with these accusations of being angry, I'm just saying what I hear, which is dull, like most classical music is. All hail Rock N Roll, it's got balls, it's got guts. That twaddle with violins has no passion, no life in it. So thanks you for your comments, but I'll say exactly as I...

Sorry folks I've had to remove the link. I thought as it was just a streaming movie that it would be okay, but the powers that be said no, if I violate the forum again I'm out forever! Seems strange that youtube links are alright, but these ones aren't. All the material on the youtube links are...

What is it with these prats, more like an insult than a tribute. They need to down some speed before recording, sound like a bunch of fecking zombies going thru the motions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMeL6IDJ ... 12DEE845A2

Why compare, there is no comparison. Bruce has a totally different tone to Freddie, completely different range. Each excels at their own. Although saying that, Freddie killed the Great Pretender, as Bruce bombed with his attempt at Bohemian Rhapsody.

As soon as I heard of this collaboration I thought "NO". Lou Reed has sucked since 1969 onwards, i.e. after the departure of John Cale (although Metal Machine Music is pretty good). He's one of those guys who's way up his own arse, and expects everyone else to follow. Nah, hearing Lou Reed drone...
