"And what is wrong with their life? What on earth is less reprehensible than the life of the Levovs?"
- American Pastoral, Philip Roth
Oh, Death was never enemy of ours!
We laughed at him, we leagued with him, old chum.
No soldier's paid to kick against His powers.
We laughed - knowing that better men would come,
And greater wars: when each proud fighter brags
He wars on Death, for lives; not men, for flags.

A sad day for you, my METAL HEAD friend. I weep for your loss.

The convention was also great btw., though I didn't get to try out Brütal Legend. I was waving around my nifty press pass and all, but the booth was already full with other guys like me, so I went to play another round of StarCraft 2

I'll stop there, before I start adding vids (Nile, Gorgoroth, 1349, Belphegor....) until my post is damn-near a page long by itself. I was listening to Azarath today in car so it was the first thing on my mind, and Krisiun kinda has a similar brutal sound.
The Arch Enemy tickets sitting in my top draw are pretty metal
The Devildriver CD next to me is pretty metal.
I am pretty metal.
The Grey Knights I am getting tomorrow are Metal.

It is very true that here in the states we use the word taint, but I prefer ABC: Ass-Ball Connector
Hurm... What is on my mind, other than my scalp? Well, the new Dethklok CD came out yesterday. Fething awesome!
The song "Burn the Earth" reminds me of Spesh Mahreenz. Burn! Except that they would burn a Xeno Planet.
The song "I Tamper With The Evidence At The Murder Site of Odin" is epic. Check it out
Automatically Appended Next Post: The song "Laser Cannon Death Sentence" sounds like playing against my friend's IG, hurr.
