Stuff that was removed(or was it?) and other things.

So yeah, other stuff was here, but now it's gone. Because fuck that post. Also now talking about other stuff. Like metal. But first, I need to talk to some indie bands about something which has really been pissing me off for a while now. C'mere for a second indie bands, I promise I won't bite. See? No biting! Now put your collective ears to my mouth so I can whisper a secret in your ear. Whats that you say? "Dorian, this is a blog, people read blogs!" Oh silly indie bands, I can do really tiny print that'll be sure to piss of my one reader, which may not be a good idea, but this is a secret so I'll have to piss off my reader to so that. Ready for it? Here it comes, the big secret thing that I want indie bands to know.












STOP FUCKING IMITATING SIGUR ROS!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, why do indie bands keep trying to do that falsetto shit? It's obnoxious and really only Ben Gibbard can do it right. Also Sigur Ros sucks. The Album Leaf is much better and you'd have to have your head stuck so far up your own ass that you can accurately describe the contents of your own stomach if you think that Sigur Ros is better. I mean, The Album Leaf is like.....one of the best downtempo bands ever. And Sigur Ros are only a crappy indie pop band. Let me demonstrate why The Album Leaf is awesome for all the poor saps who have never heard of them.


I mean, check that shit out! It's all mellow and shit! Also awesome. I mean, I can't say enough nice things about this band and this song. It makes my top 100 Greatest Songs of All Time (which is actually really hard to do) easily. Anyway, now that I've gotten that nasty bit of business off my chest, time to talk about the greatest nu metal band you have never heard of. And I'm gonna do it in another paragraph, fucking crazy isn't it? Well mostly I'm doing it so my Senior English Teacher Mr. Isackson doesn't want to drag my sorry ass back to his class if he ever catches sight of this blog.

Anyway the name of this awesome band is Maximum the Hormone, and..........................well what more can I say other than they are probably one of the greatest metal bands in Japan (well, them and the ever awesome Gallhammer) and probably the entire gorram world (Gallhammer too in fact). I hate to label them as nu metal, because they are so much better than that label. But it fits, in that they are a bass heavy metal band with a screaming/singing dynamic. They don't take themselves seriously though, I mean, songs like Kuso Breakin Nō Breakin Lily are just so, well, kinda silly just bright and light(even though there is a dude screaming his throat out for one of the vocals on the song). So yeah, go look em up. I gotta go do stuff. I'll talk about the band more later.
