    TREASURE ISLAND - New Maiden Album (June 6)

    It's a bit of a Maidenfans tradition to have a fake new album announced on April Fools, I don't think the intent was for anyone to fall for it. I commend Diesel for having the imagination to be able to go into so much detail.

    Mastodon

    Ben discusses the Mastodon gig. He goes into a bit of detail over the guitar gear he used, your mileage may vary on how interesting you find that but I thought it was a fun and interesting watch. The feedback to him has also been incredibly positive and supportive, which is great to see and...

    Brag Thread

    After teasing it for well over a year, it's been confirmed that I'm getting a pay rise at work. Not just me, everyone on my team, but it's well earned and much appreciated. It's a 16% increase, still a fairly modest salary, but I turned 30 last week and have been thinking a lot about moving out...

    The biggest douchebags in Metal and Rock

    So did Lemmy (same title), though to be fair to him he was far less offensive than Nugent.

    Crappy album covers

    Not bad as an unfinished concept piece, guess they couldn't afford to pay the artist to finish it. :lol:

    Rant Thread

    Well, having completely lost my patience with the incessant ads, I'm now over to Brave too. Read mixed things about how well it still handles ads on YT so we'll see how long I stick with it.

    The biggest douchebags in Metal and Rock

    Yeah, I feel like there's a big difference between being a douchebag (side note, I've always hated this term) and being flat-out criminal like a murderer or having sex with teenagers so this list feels a little skewed. Anyway, my vote would be Gene Simmons for having his head rammed firmly up...

    The biggest douchebags in Metal and Rock

    I heard he was a bit of a prick and I thought Cat Scratch Fever sucked when I first heard it so I never felt the need to look any further into him :lol:

    I missed that too, so I took a look at his Wikipedia page and there's a section titled "Relationships with teenage girls"...

    Any experience with ESP-LTD guitars?

    We've been looking at different models, I missed the "blue one" part and thought you were looking at this: https://www.thomann.co.uk/esp_ltd_as_1_fr_alex_skolnick_lb.htm (I still have no idea how to convert links to text on this site :lol:) Well, they do work well together. I had them in my...

    Any experience with ESP-LTD guitars?

    I dunno if it's quite top tier but it'll be a fine guitar for certain. Plus if you get bored of the JB/59 combo (yawn) you can get some Seymour Duncan Alex Skolnick signature pickups and still have spent less than you would have if you'd bought his signature guitar :yes:

    Any experience with ESP-LTD guitars?

    It's not an issue so much, I guess I just find it a little strange as I've just always known LTD as the affordable equivalent of ESP, but now they've grown to the point that they can charge the same prices as some ESP/E-II models. Now they're an equivalent or almost becoming a replacement to...

    Any experience with ESP-LTD guitars?

    Friend of mine's got an EC-1000, the satin black one with gold hardware and EMG pickups - those aren't really for me, but I've have a few goes of it and it plays really nicely. He's had it for over three years now, plays it pretty heavily with his theatre group and has had no problems with it...

    50th Anniversary Documentary Announcement

    I think nearly everybody is very much aware of the issues in Maiden's history, so it's not like Maiden are hiding anything by not including them in this documentary. You can go back right to the start of Maiden's career with the firings of Dennis Stratton and Paul Di'Anno, the latter of which is...
