Black Tide

[Cornerdealy]

I didn't see them mentioned anywhere here... a relatively new Metal band, all the members are currently under 20 years old, and the lead singer is only 15! but what a voice!

They sound a lot like metallica/iron maiden/other 80's metal bands

Very talented and have such a promising future (a lot of people are heralding them as the modern saviors of metal, i dont know if i would go that far.)

They also have a song on Rock Band that was just released as DLC, the title track to their new album that's coming out 3/18

Pretty cool! Thanks for posting!
I like what I hear so far.

going to see this in April.

been digging them for a while.

briliant...i like the lead guitarists hair :P

[slimseany66]

DUDE, thank you for making this thread. I was watching headbangers ball one day and I saw this band and I liked it a lot, but I couldn't remember their name after the song was over, or the song title. Their singer is only 15??? Not only is he a singer, but in the song I heard he could shred too. They really really reminded me of Megadeth when I listened to them. I think they have a chance of bringing in some good old fashioned metal. Who knows, they could be the saviors of metal in a few years. And thank god, a good new band who sings.

Oh, the song I saw on HBB was called shockwave. Any band who's lead singer is wearing a Megadeth shirt is a band I got to like :)

[awia]

I heard the Cd on imeen...it was good....until like 3 or 4 songs then it jsut started getting boring....

their album gets too boring and alsmot every song has the same melodic hook

[Gods_blood33]

And thank god, a good new band who sings.

They're cool.

Moms ordering me and some buds some tix for an April gig.

The singer is a 15 and also plays guitar.


Btw, does their lead remind you of a young Dimebag or what:

I wouldn't expect a stellar album from guys these young. This album will be spectacular for a bunch of teenagers, but in the future is when I look for them to create more epic songs, better lyrics, more complexity, etc...There is more hope in this band thatn almost anyone I have ever heard.

:rolleyes:

sorry dude, I don't listen to much newer metal, and when I do on this site I just get bombarded with metalcore, which then turns me way off the metal thread.

Looks, yes. Playing style not so much but some influence. I think their solos are totally Megadeth. Not only one guitarist, but both guyitaristd of the Deth are well represented I think. I'll just use shockwave as an example.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rw4aqN0XlRc

The choppy solo from 1:52-2:00 is so Dave Mustaine-esque it's almost funny. But then the dual solo thing from 2:00-2:22 is really Marty Friedman sounding with like a Dragonforce feel to it as well (who were also heavily influenced by Friedman's playing).

No one plays like Friedman can...no one.

But don't assume that thats how they are...read their myspace and they all have different tastes..i mean the lead guitarist likes punk and it's irregular to shred.

I think its the old : 'playing fast is cool' thing going on right now

[Gods_blood33]

As long as you reallize metalcore is not the only metal out there currently. Did you ever check out any of the other bands I recommended to you? Besides Sonata Arctica and Iced Earth.

Yupp, many of them, Iced Earth and Sonata were the two who caught me the most probably, probably Symphony X as well.

no, it's a conversation with me, I get it, it's cool.

And to your post before, you and I agree, I'm not saying he plays as well as Friedman (probably my favorite lead guitarist of all time). And yeah I see their influences are awesome. In some vid I saw the lead guitarist wearing a misfits shirt, who I love, even though they are punk. The point is these guy's major influences are my favorite bands. Oh and I see they are covering Hit the Lights for their new album. Even though it's not my favorite from Kill Em All, any old Metallica is good.

Apparently they cover it note for note but I'm not a seek-out-to-listen-too Metallica fan. Still...I hope the live show is good, cus we'll be about 1 metre away from them when they play

Me too. Megadeth is beyond the shit. Best concert I have seen in my life was Megadeth in September 07. MUSTAINE FOR PRESIDENT 20012!!!

I'm a huge Metallica fan as well. Too bad my two fav thrash metal bands hate each other with a dying passion.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

[slimseany66]

^ true true....

But back to Black Tide

Yeah, I'm expecting great things in their future. Like these songs seem a little too garage rock for me to really get into it. In the future I expect tem to do epic songs like a Megadeth Holy Wars or a Metallica's One or Maiden's Hallowed Be Thy Name. Everyone has to start somewhere. Megadeth's first album was really crude and was almost a punk album wit the crap vocals, production and short length of songs. As same with Metallica, and even Iron Maiden.

Dude, if you love Megadeth and know how much Mustaine and Metallica hate each other you gotta see this...

I don't think they hate each other. I think the guys in Metallica are over it and Dave still holds a grudge. Not sure if I can blame him, but still.

Lol, do you know when that was recorded?

Better lyrics and vocals. Plus the added bridge makes the song. Faster doesn't always mean better.

They're all over it now, Mustaine said maybe the two bands should play one last gig together or something.

this band seems way too commercialized for me. like, i dont know how to explain it. it just seems......over-polished? i dunno if thats the right word.

I can respond to many of these posts :).

That's sweet that Megadeth and Metallica don't hate each other now. That would be such an orgasm if they toured together.

Um, it looks pretty new...and I think it's from the Rude Awakening DVD, which was from 2001.

Nooo, MECHANIX FTW. Even though I agree with you about the faster doesn't mean better, but I think Metallica dragged that song on a little too long, lol from that post it wouldn't seem like I would be the guy who fucking loves to death the Four Horsemen, but really I do. I guess I may be biased a little because I saw Megadeth perform Mechanix live and it was fucking inane. Everyone in the crowd was just bouncing all over and banging their heads like no tomorrow.

Back to Black Tide. Yes I see how it may seem a little too mainstreamed and manufactured, but as I said before, this album will not be their best. I look for songs like this to be their Hanson stage, they are just kids, and until they progress as songwriters and musicians, poppy and catchy will be the easiest for them to write, I can't think of many bands where their heaviest stuff was on their debut album. Give em time, they will blow minds.

[HorribleApollo]

so you like them cause of things that they might do?


....thats..........weird.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

so you like them cause of things that they might do?

I like their shit


Good guitarists with cheesy lyrics :D

[HorribleApollo]

i dunno, that stuff really doesnt appeal to me. they sound too much like they are copying iron maiden/metallica

[slimseany66]

No, I like them a lot now, but I have hope that they will make even better music in the future.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

its their first album....

a lot of bands have terrible first album's EPs

[slimseany66]

i dunno, that stuff really doesnt appeal to me. they sound too much like they are copying iron maiden/metallica


I do agree they need to figure out a little more original sound for me to really get to like them, but they have the pieces and good talent and great influences, now they just need to use all those parts to make a sound that is uniquely theirs.

[Gods_blood33]

yeah, i thought so. That would be sweet. I'd go.

Oh, i was just asking to see if it could actually be James, lol. it can't be him though, he hasn't had long hair since the mid 90's.

Well, I've seen The Four Horsemen live so... I don't know, I just like it better.
i dunno, that stuff really doesnt appeal to me. they sound too much like they are copying iron maiden/metallica

I agree. It's good, I just can't get into it because there is absolutely no originality whatsoever.

I do agree they need to figure out a little more original sound for me to really get to like them, but they have the pieces and good talent and great influences, now they just need to use all those parts to make a sound that is uniquely theirs.

Exactly. If they can do that, add something new or fresh to the music, then I could see myself being a fan. But right now, it just doesn't cut it for me. They're young and they have talent, so that could change.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

Im really digging the acoustic start to Warriors of Time

[Blood and Rank]

They're a good band I met them supporting Avenged Sevenfold. The guitar player was pissed and was messing about with my friends hair!

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

jealous =\

[Cornerdealy]

I think they have a lot of potential.

you guys gotta remember how young they are and realize that they are gonna need time to evolve their sound. Right now they are just teenagers who are writing stuff in the style of their favorite bands, as they continue learning and maturing they will begin to find their own sound

I think it's really cool to find a band so young and with so much talent and potential already and be able to follow them right from the beginning. That doesn't happen that often.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

they filmed another vid for Shockwave

much better

[slimseany66]

The new music video is better, I mean it looks more professional, but I fucking loved the singer's Megadeth shirt in the first video, lol.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

the lead guitarist LIVES in that Bad Brains shirt

YOU CANT WEAR PUNK BAND T SHIRTZ OR UR NAWT UBER METALZ


at least these guys dont adhere to this stereotype.

one problem with all you guys "theyre going to become good later" theory? bands are lucky if they are even together after their second record today. its a hard buisiness, and them being that young just makes it worse.

true, but we are looking on the bright side. And the fact that their debut album got so much attention would hopefully encourage them to keep on keeping on.

well obviously if there are other consequences then no one can do anything about that...but we are talking about them in purely musical terms.

as far as their talent as musicians go they are very good, especially for their age. And band logistics aside (which I thought was assumed), they have a pretty bright future.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

Kinda seems serious.

These guys better be social at the gig.

The venue is so tiny and sweaty

[Tall Tale Tom]

i was watching Headbangers Ball last night and they showed a commercial for Black Tide 3 times.

3 times in 2 hours? i guess this band is decent then.
also Tea-Time when did you say the show was you're going to? i want info from you afterwards ya?

[HorribleApollo]

I see what you mean. i think that's stupid though

oh, im not saying it isnt. i personally am a big fan of both punk and metal, and i hate it when a metalhead bashes me for wearing a dead kennedys shirt or something. people need to learn how to open up to different kinds of music.

i know, but look at a band like FFTL. sonny was 15 when they started, and in two records they were done (well, kinda. but theyve pretty much fallen off the radar now)

[thelivingdead33]

So I saw this band Black Tide the other night on Jimmy Kimmel. The chorus to the song they played was boring, lacked depth and was kinda corny. The guitar work on the other hand was badass. And they are young, so they have plenty of time to improve the song writing skills..What do you guys think?

[awia]

I think they need to making songs until they actually do something semi original....

now they are the

Lacking depth, that's how I feel about these guys. I mean, it's good stuff, pretty catchy but I think they're gonna fade away unless they put out something more consistent.

A lot of people would agree. Megadeth aren't one of my favorite bands, but they have some pretty good stuff. Megadeth are one of the most well known metal bands out there, there is obviously a reason for that.

They've jus 'made it' with an album, touring and a video rotation - they have reason to party.

And Dave Mustaine is cool.

Not one to march in and start hating on a band but...

as a fan of 80s Metal, mainly Thrash (and i don't just mean the big four :/ listen to fucking Testament) since i was about 12, I really, really dislike these guys sound. Impressive guitar players for they're age yes, but christ its been done and done and done and done, better and better and better and better. Trivium and Bullet For Valentine are bad enough for trying to bring back the sound of the heyday of Thrash and i was a fan of those bands before they went in that direction.

Municipal Waste and SSS are the only bands harking back to the 80s i enjoy. Evile to an extent.

My main problem is that its far too... over-produced. Too glossy. Too clean. Sounds like... virgins with guitars.

there are other offenders, check out Blessed By A Broken Heart and Vanity Kills.

tl:dr buy some Testament and Exodus records.

Dave is cocky and arrogant the two traits of people I dislike the most besides my cockiness

http://www.sputnikmusic.com/news.php?newsid=5723

Revolver: [Swedish cult black metal act] DISSECTION had to be canceled from Israel's 2005 Metalist fest because you don't play with Satanic bands. Do you still refuse to play with any band that has even a smidgen of Satanism?

Mustaine: First, DISSECTION didn't have to be canceled. I made clear to my agent that I won't play with Satanic bands, and the promoter booked the band without checking with the agent. Because I'm a legend, I don't need to play with people who have gone on record and said they're an enemy of mine. Because I believe in God and he believes in Satan, that means we're enemies, right? It doesn't mean I can't pray for the guy; it just means he doesn't like me and he said so. And I told them that I was stepping off the bill. I never said to cancel those guys. Second, the guy [DISSECTION frontman Jon Nödveidt] threatened me in France. I have two first-degree black belts and I was just awarded a fourth-degree black belt from the World Taekwondo Federation. If the guy wants to threaten me, bring it. I went, he wasn't there. I try really, really hard to live my life peacefully, and this guy went on record saying he was my enemy. You know what? Something happened to him. He committed suicide, didn't he? Oh, bummer.

[Vince Noir]

take it to the Megadeth thread.

[slimseany66]

Dave Mustaine is the man.

Anything new on these guys? Some more covers would be cool, I didn't particularly like Hit the Lights because it's not one of my faves on Kill Em All, and they didn't have enough agression in their cover version for me to really get into it. Now if they were to cover Seek and Destroy I would have orgasmed

there are other offenders, check out Blessed By A Broken Heart and Vanity Kills.

tl:dr buy some Testament and Exodus records.

exactly my thoughts. and at least BFMV does the 80s ripoff okay. these guys are like iron maiden mixed with older metallica mixed with some dumb over produced pop stuff. there are metal bands from today, with clean vocals, that are good.

Dave Mustaine is the man.

MUSTAINE FOR PRESIDENT 2012



no. plz no.

[Tall Tale Tom]

has anyone heard about the Rock Camp or w/e its called?

its supposed to be like fucking all these great rock guys teaching people how to play and then you can open for one of the famous bands.
something like that.
but its fucking expensive as hell. if i had the money i would for sure do it.

Revolver: [Swedish cult black metal act] DISSECTION had to be canceled from Israel's 2005 Metalist fest because you don't play with Satanic bands. Do you still refuse to play with any band that has even a smidgen of Satanism?

Mustaine: First, DISSECTION didn't have to be canceled. I made clear to my agent that I won't play with Satanic bands, and the promoter booked the band without checking with the agent. Because I'm a legend, I don't need to play with people who have gone on record and said they're an enemy of mine. Because I believe in God and he believes in Satan, that means we're enemies, right? It doesn't mean I can't pray for the guy; it just means he doesn't like me and he said so. And I told them that I was stepping off the bill. I never said to cancel those guys. Second, the guy [DISSECTION frontman Jon Nödveidt] threatened me in France. I have two first-degree black belts and I was just awarded a fourth-degree black belt from the World Taekwondo Federation. If the guy wants to threaten me, bring it. I went, he wasn't there. I try really, really hard to live my life peacefully, and this guy went on record saying he was my enemy. You know what? Something happened to him. He committed suicide, didn't he? Oh, bummer.

I don't think anyone is arguing the point that he is usually a dick. All I said is he has made some good music.

[slimseany66]

I don't think anyone is arguing the point that he is usually a dick. All I said is he has made some good music.

I might be a big enough fanboy to think he isn't a dick all the time, but I don't like a lot of things he does say. However, he is very intelligent and I agree with him on a lot of political subjects and such, however, he is or was an alcoholic, no that doesn't excuse him at all, but alcohol changes people a lot. It got him kicked out of Metallica and I'm sure he said a lot of stupid things he regrets with alcohol. However, he is the nicest guy you could imagine to his fans, he's just very outspoken against anyone else. Half the stuff he says is true, but it's just too inapropriate for him to say to the public. The stuff he says is what some of us think in our heads. He called out Kirk Hammet and said he was a better guitarist, idk if that's too out there, Kirk always uses the fucking whammy or wah wah, w/e thing for ALL his solos. Dave denounced and didn't want to play with satanic bands, but who in their right mind would prefer a satanic band on the road to a non-satanic band? His stuff is harsh, but it's not so far fetched.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

Dave Mustaine is the man.

MUSTAINE FOR PRESIDENT 2012

Anything new on these guys? Some more covers would be cool, I didn't particularly like Hit the Lights because it's not one of my faves on Kill Em All, and they didn't have enough agression in their cover version for me to really get into it. Now if they were to cover Seek and Destroy I would have orgasmed

Agreed.

He's a Christian, having a Satanic band on your bill that will sing hate about your beliefs - so why have them on?

And no, no more news on the Black Tide. Just that my tickets came through the post recently.

I'm not saying he's dumb at all. As far as I know about him, he's pretty smart. But he DOES come off as arrogant, cocky, whiny, and lame a lot of the time. But again, my original point was that, regardless of his attitude, he's famous and makes good music. A lot of people would want to be like him.

Yes, he is the mastermind behind Megadeth, which is the second highest selling thrash metal band of all time if I'm not mistaken. Yes, I have seen in numerous places where he really shows an intellectual side and obviously is well educated, but then again, people in metal bands are intelligent a lot of the time, ala Steve Harris, Rob Halford, and millions of other intellectual metal musicians (besides Ozzy :P).

HOLY SHIT DUDE!!! I remember that! He was in rock or musical celebrity jeopardy and he totally pwnd Moon Zappa. He was a monster on that show, and he was so nice and calm too...

I LOLd so hard when he frickin aced the Elton John category...I was thinking "hmmm, wtf, leader of Megadeth, aka one of the fastest, loudest metal bands, knowing everything there is about Sir Elton John..."

[Silver Hammer]

one thing i dont like about this band is the image that they are trying to project...

look at their pictures....they always look pissed wdf...look at between the buried and me's pictures, they play heavy ass shit yet they be smiling in their pictures but these guys...omg...its funny seeing a skinny 15 yr old with long hair thinking he is the shit, well i hope his personally aint cocky like that or we will have the next dave mustaine

do it

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

bump.

they put on an awesome live show, except the singer can't put 100% into his vocals because of the riffs he's playing...but for a 15 year old, my god he pwns at guitar.


got to meet them after the gig too, they were just walking around - got my ticket autographed

[Tall Tale Tom]

Black Tide is secks.

Tea-Time i want more info than two sentences...plz

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

Black Tide is secks.

Tea-Time i want more info than two sentences...plz

Ok:

After waiting around for 2 hours for the show to start - we did see the lead guitarist and drummer walk around (and let's face it, you can't really miss Lex with hair like a Claudio / Dimebag cross). The opening band were Glamour of the Kill and all the way through their set some ignorant shits were shouting "FREEBIRD!" and "STAIRWAY!" (which happened all the way through the gig, even for Black Tide which makes you wonder why they paid to stand and do that). Glamour of the Kill were ok, a bit too meh for me though.

Black Tide opened with 'Black Abyss' which sounded way more evil live then their CD representation did. Then they played 'Shockwave' and about 3/4 of their album. The bassist talked mainly to the crowd, the singer (Gabriel) is actually very self-conscious and you'd of thought he'd hide under his hair which comes down nearly to his waist. Pretty funny pair tbh - the bassist and the lead guitarist.

They ended the set with a track I can't remember the name of and then walked around the venue for the rest of the night talking to fans. So I met them all and got my ticket signed, Gabriel is so shy and looked so awkward when talking to people.

But a good night overall...I'm still astounded at their guitar playing - Lex is 19 so I'm not so shocked that he's so good but Gabriel's only jus turned 15 and man he can shred.

[Tall Tale Tom]

damn dude you are so lucky.

so i know Black Tide has a song called "Hit the Lights"
is it a cover of Metallica's "Hit the Lights"?

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

yeh

Note for note the same - except for the vocals obviously.



But yeh, if they gig locally near you at small, intermate venue then you'll probably meet them

[Tall Tale Tom]

Other band members: YA! we can play 1980s shit and revive it!


Interscope guy: yo, there is this band filled with 14-17 year olds with 3 of em with long hair that wants to rip off 1980s music.

Interscope leader: .....hmm...sounds like a novelty act with a guaranteed 10k albums sold first week to me.....SIGN EM! while you do that book em at ozzfest and a A7X tour......

[slimseany66]

ummm, stop being an asshole and get out of here. We don't come onto the threads of bands we hate to just chew them out, just get the fuck out dude.

[Vince Noir]

yeah please don't flagrantly bash a band in their own thread.

but to be fair... this band would NOT get the attention they do without their age. there are plenty of 80s/thrash revivalists that aren't a bunch of MTV fiendly, squeaky clean disney nippers.

please check out Municipal Waste or SSS.

[Screenager]

Municipal Waste ftw.

bought these guys' cd and listened to it once.

lol, calm down. he gave his opinion on the band.

And I can't say I don't agree with him.

[Vince Noir]

It's frowned upon on this board if you go in and just present an opinion in such a a way, in a thread where fans of a band are discussing the music, thats asking for trouble. Respect others likes and dislikes basically, i'm sure most people would expect the same.

Of course one is free to express their opinion be it negative or positive, but have a little class in doing it please. Even if i do dislike this band, i don't think its fair to rip them in such a way.

[Tall Tale Tom]

wow Gaz that was a very mature way of putting that.
way to be a man

I don't think what he said was so bad though. he expressed his opinion that the band is horrible (which is just hi opinion) and then said something that is completely true. While the band may have a lot of talent, they are doing absolutely nothing new. At this point in time, they are nothing more than a novelty act.

[Tall Tale Tom]

ye but this isnt the "lets bash black tide" thread.
that stuff is totally unnecessary IMO.

especially when they know its going to get everybody riled up

[Gods_blood33]

ye but this isnt the "lets bash black tide" thread.

He didn't "bash" them. He expressed his opinion. I did the same thing earlier in this thread and you guys didn't say anything to me.

[Tall Tale Tom]

because you did it in a helluva lot nicer way.

[Gods_blood33]

lol, if you say so.

[Tall Tale Tom]

plus you are a regular member.

the other dude has 30 posts and i would say at least half have been shit talking in different threadz.

back to the topic. cant wait to see these guys at Mayhem Tour

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

True it helps the singers jus gone 15 to get signed but so what? Would it make any difference if they were 17 or 16 like The Fall of Troy or Protest the Hero were when they began? Besides, everyone else in the band is 19+ anyway > not a kiddie band

[Tall Tale Tom]

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

that aren't a bunch of MTV fiendly, squeaky clean disney nippers.




It's not the only comment, more and more people say 'omfg kiddie band novelty act' because the singer is 15. And yet everyone here happily listens to Protest and TFoT when they each started off at the end of their school days which was about 16 anyway.

I'm not ragging on those 2 bands because they rock. But I'm saying would everyone have the same down-trodden view if you didn't know the singer / lead guitarists' age?

I called them a novelty act, but it doesn't have anything to do with their age. They could all be 25 and, at this point, I would have the same opinion. It's because there is absolutely no originality in their sound so far.

I see what you mean and I respect your oppinion.

At the end of the day everything nowadays is rehashed from what's been done before, just each band has a twist too it. Doesn't stop anyone from liking them however

Not at all. Like I said, they have talent. And for people who aren't tired of the 80's metal sound, this is a good band for them.

[Tall Tale Tom]

never tired of it.

its gewd

[Gods_blood33]

never tired of it.

its gewd

I used to say the same thing lol

I still like it, I just don't listen to it like I used to. And I can't get into newer bands who are trying to have the same sound.

[slimseany66]

going on about the comment of that one dude bashing the band, yeah I overreacted, but the threads for each band is to discuss them amongst fans...to say a band is horrible obviously shows that dude was not a fan. You don't see me going to the Panic! At the Disco thread and trash them even though I think they are horrible, it's just kind of unclassy in my opinion. Just leave the totally negative comments like "they suck" or "they are horrible" out of the thread of the actual band please. thank you.

wow, another rick roll...this got old after about 5 times or it.

I don't have a problem with it if they do it once. Come in, say they're horrible, and leave. Looking back on it, he already commented on this band earlier, so yeah, he should just leave it alone.

[slimseany66]

Yeah however I admit I was harsh on him, telling him to get the fuck out is kind of being an asshole, but I just don't get ehy people go to a thread or a song by a band and just say they suck. I don't care if yout think they suck, just say it away from fans of the band like this thread. I get mad about the same thing happening all the time on Youtube, you can't watch an MCR video (band I like, yes I like them, I know you all probably hate em) without some douche commenting in the vid saying "MCR sucks balls, they are fags" or a comment like "this emo shit sux". You can have anb opinion, but leave us fans alone with it.

[HorribleApollo]

I don't have a problem with it if they do it once. Come in, say they're horrible, and leave. Looking back on it, he already commented on this band earlier, so yeah, he should just leave it alone.

no, theres two ways you can do it. you can be an asshole and just be like "this band fucking sucks i hate them theyre the worst band ever".

or, you can come into the thread and discuss with people who do like the band why you dont like them, and find out why they like them, and actually have a logical discussion.

Most likely the big haired guitarist

[Tall Tale Tom]

naturally. guitar players make up epicness when they are high. i know from experience.

[slimseany66]

I wonder if Iron Maiden are major pot heads, because most of their songs are about real intelligent subjects...

[Vince Noir]

Steve Harris hasn't touched a drug or smoked a cigarrette in his life.

[slimseany66]

wow, no kidding, that is pretty unbelievable, but it makes sense when you think about it, Maiden is a pretty calm and deep band in their personality unlike some other hardcore rockers...

[Vince Noir]

They're normal, family dudes. My dad is mates with a guy who was in one of the original lineups of Iron Maiden, but his father told him that basically bands are too unstable and he needs a proper job, so he went into the same industry as my Dad. They're still friends to this day i believe, i think he and Steve own a bar together in Portugal, Eddie's Bar. But yeah basically, they're just normal guys who happen to play in one of the most important metal bands ever.

[slimseany66]

exactly, and that is why I love them...my dad has a funny story about them, so he has a bunch of guy friends from his old work that still keep in touch and go on the same fishing trip to the same lodge in Canada and have been doing it together for like 10 years now once every year...anyways, my dad only goes to that lodge once a year, with his buddies, but some of the other dudes go there more often while on vacation or w/e and supposedly, my dad's friend was at the lodge while Adrian Smith was also at the same lodge, but he didn't know much of Maiden or w/e, so he just said to my dad "yeah, I guess one time I was at the lodge there was this one guitarist of some band you probably recognize who was also there, his name was like Adrian Smith or something..."

yeah, they are all typical dudes, Dave and Adrian fish, Bruce fences and flies airplanes, Nicko is an avid golfer, idk what special hobbies Stev has, but you get the picture...

[Vince Noir]

hahaha yeah Adrian fishes, its on Rock in Rios extras. Bruce does everything ever, Nico likes to play drunk golf at night with Dave, and Steve likes being awesome. true story.

as a mod, i should say this should go to the Maiden thread but fuck me Maiden are too awesome for one thread.

[slimseany66]

100% agreed my friend...

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

they're jus new to it all and still teens...teens like to party

[Tall Tale Tom]

Bump.

Seeing these guys today at Mayhem Tour. should be fucking sweet
all i had to do for my ticket was buy an underage friend of mine a pack of cigarettes lol

[slimseany66]

You are so bad ass Tom :)

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

I missed their set at Download :(

Only 3 of em were playing anywho because Lex has been spent home for personal reasons, but he's still in the band.

And Zakk likes to make porno with groupies.

[slimseany66]

wow, let me get in on some of that action.

[HorribleApollo]

this band is becoming more and more overrated. i think i saw somewhere calling them the next iron maiden or something like that.

i mean, sure, theyre okay, but they are very generic and will never be the next iron maiden.

also, i hate it how people compare bands to other bands. all the time.

/rant.

[slimseany66]

No one will ever become the next Maiden, or the next Sabbath, or the next Metallica, or the next Priest. They are the next Black Tide and that's it. And you really want to get down to the details, they aren't the next Maiden because they don't have the songwriting or musical talent to even be compared to them yet. Yeah, they had Shockwave and Warriors of Time off their debut album, Iron Maiden had Iron Maiden, Phantom of the Opera, Remember Tomorrow and Transylvania off their first album, lol. They aren't the next anything because they don't have a unique enough style to revolutionize music like Sabbath and Metallica and Maiden and Priest did.

I hate to rant on a band which I actually like, but NO ONE should compare a modern metal band to someone like Maiden.

[Screenager]

this band will hopefully get MUCH better.
i think the skill is there but i don't know. they might turn into just another band like A7X where the skill is there but the ability to formulate to good music is not.

[HorribleApollo]

Maiden were called complete rip-offs of another band (which I can't recall the name of) when they started...you aren't original when you start.

[slimseany66]

I think I might challenge you on that. Maiden were wildly popular and fresh when they came out with their earliest EP, people didn't know what it was.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

I think I might challenge you on that. Maiden were wildly popular and fresh when they came out with their earliest EP, people didn't know what it was.

You're assuming Black Tide aren't fairly popular to be still going? :rolleyes:
If they weren't selling > popular they'd have been dropped by now.

They've also covered The Prowler on that IM cover Cd :tongue:

[slimseany66]

It's different when you say someone's popular and someone is the next (insert band here). And yes, I'm very anxious to see their cover. But it bugs me how he sings it so differently live than in studio, it's like a totally different singer when they do any of their songs live it seems.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

He just hit puberty.
Thats why his voice is a lot deeper.


Also, singing whilst standing still / sitting down in a cubicle is a lot easier than playing and singing at the same time, as well as giving a visual performance.

[slimseany66]

oh yes, I understand that, but even dudes who play and sing it live still sound a little like the studio version, like Claudio or Geddy Lee or whoever...

oh, so maybe this studio recording is done after he hit puberty maybe?

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

oh yes, I understand that, but even dudes who play and sing it live still sound a little like the studio version, like Claudio or Geddy Lee or whoever...

He recorded it before his voice dropped.

Ive seen him twice now and his voice is getting much deeper and more metal, the bassist can still hit high notes though so its good.

[Eliasalad]

hey he cant be pissed hes underaged!
thats illeagal!......LOL! hahahaha

yeah havent seen them but il see them at mayhem soo, good times! hopefully lol

[Josiff]

hey he cant be pissed hes underaged!
thats illeagal!What?

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

hey he cant be pissed hes underaged!
thats illeagal!



the problem? :tongue:

[Tall Tale Tom]

fuckin eh that was such a great show... greatest 30 minutes of my life even better than sex

they played Shockwave, Warriors of Time, Prowler, Light From Above (title track?), and something else. fuck it was great though. dont knock these guys til you've seen them live and seen what they are all about and the fucking magic they create that is music

caught the bass players pick and got him to sign it. got the whole band to sign my ticket stub too.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

got the whole band to sign my ticket stub too.

you copied me!



was it the full band or was Lex not there?

[Andy3]

This band is fucking balls. I love them. Everyone needs to stop hating. If they keep up at their current rate, think of the epicness they'll be putting out at 25.

[slimseany66]

yeah, but people should stop the comparisons to some of the greatest metal bands until they put out their epic tunes.

[Andy3]

Just wondering, have you listened to the album all the way through? There are some very solid tracks on the album.

[slimseany66]

lol, I'm not dissing on them at all. I actually love the band and will continue to listen to them. The debut was ok for a debut, but with a lot of room to grow. I think they just sounded like, idk how to explain it, just maybe a little to material for me. I want to hear them really perfect their sound and make it something that is truly theirs. It seemed that the debut was just generic 80s metal to me.

[Andy3]

But is there really a problem with 80's metal?

[slimseany66]

no, not at all, which is why I love em. However, for them to cross the line of "good band" into "inspirational, great band" then they need to make their style and sound totally unique, as their big influences did to pave the way for metal.

[Andy3]

God, this band is so good. I actually didnt really get into the record on the first few listens, but now its freakin amazing.

[Tall Tale Tom]

you copied me!

idk i dont think it was Lex. it was this black dude but with fluffy crazy fro hair but my other friends were saying it was the same guy.

Black Tide's studio cover of Prowler is fucking orgasmic. Ace cover.

Pics?

And Black Tide are awesome.

slimseany66, as awesome as IM are, they're not the best of the best.

[slimseany66]

well I think they are, but no one is ever right when they call a band the best ever and act like it's a known fact. I may act like I think this, but the reality is, music is too varied to have a best band. But yes, Maiden is my favorite band.

True and I'm pleased you campaign and show your love so feverishly.

But you need to let comparisons slide :smile:

[Tall Tale Tom]

no pics Tea-Time :(

[slimseany66]

I don't like comparisons at all. Because every band is too unique to be only known beside another band.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

no pics Tea-Time :(

WUT?! gtfo man

Not even a picture of your stub for me?

I'll return a pic of mine

If anything its a compliment.

And too me, Black Tide have an IM-esque sound in terms of some of the guitar harmonie's n riffage - mainly in Warriors of Time

[slimseany66]

they are a little thrash to be identical to Maiden. Idk, I always hear Megadeth in their shit.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

they are a little thrash to be identical to Maiden. Idk, I always hear Megadeth in their shit.

only in his voice
they're not really that close to thrash..at all

[Tall Tale Tom]

they sound like Black Tide to me.

but thats just my opinion.

honestly when i saw them live the first thing that i thought after the show was "this doesnt sound like a band that 'sounds like Megadeth or Iron Maiden', this sounds like a band that is really trying to make a name for themselves"

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

Come out of your cold cell, it was a funny

[slimseany66]

What? I think it was hilarious times 2...Minutes To Midnight

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

What? I think it was hilarious times 2...Minutes To Midnight

bahahaha


epic

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

Apparently Lex has left.

According to some fan site it was between Gabe or Lex.

I hate Gabe.

He never fucking smiles in photos with his fans and seems douchey.

[Tall Tale Tom]

nah dude Gabe is fucking cool

i met him before they played and we just chilled and drank a rockstar then he said "i gotta get back there dude" and i was like "alright man fucking tear it up"

and then afterwards at the signing we talked for like 10 minutes and i was telling all kinds of stuff like "what you do on guitar i can only dream about doing" and junt like that and he was blushing and shit.

[slimseany66]

The lead singer is always going to win a fight. Case closed.

[Tall Tale Tom]

their new guitar player isnt bad. he's likeable and still meshes with the band very well.

i'll vouch for that i spent around 30 minutes with them

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

Austin?

He's also in Lexx's over band - The Panix.

They play punk / thrash music. Its pretty good, they reply to my comments on Myspace and everything!



I dunno, he js comes off as arrogant, he never smiles for pictures - despite the fans being the reason he's still there - and is a liar. He says he doesnt drink and smoke etc, but being the stalker I am - theres photos of him doing that in Lexx's myspace photos.



And besides, Zakk is just as good at vocals.
With Lexx being a better guitarist.

[thefinalcut7]

I'd like to see how this band turns out. Im interested in what they have to offer.

[teamcritical]

I donno. I REALLY enjoy the music but the fact that these are kids really bugs me. I just do not know what to think.

[Tea-Time-Havoc]

I donno. I REALLY enjoy the music but the fact that these are kids really bugs me. I just do not know what to think.

the singer is 16 or 15...everyone else is 19 +.

[teamcritical]

Lol, my favorite bands include Metallica, The Beatles, The Offspring, and Coheed and Cambria. I'm not one for younger people. I'm just saying, the age really bugs me. I just feel like they will be pushed higher then they should because lead singer and guitarist is like 16.

[thefinalcut7]

Well if they put out good music then it wont really matter. Age doesnt matter singing quality does.
