Semi-confused 16 year old



This is my Metal Forces issue 23 ad when I was 16 and looking for bandmates for my shitty "idea band" Broken Entity. HUGE thanks to Black Laced Obesity from the Doomed Forever forum for sending this to me this morning. Made my fuckin' day!

Heard it a zillion times but it's STILL awesome



Demonical from Sweden has that now acceptable again 1989-93 Swedish Death Metal tone. This song fuckin' kills - trend or no trend - it doesn't matter. It's just a brilliant sound and should be repeated several times over. Although, how are they able to recreate this WITHOUT a Boss Distortion pedal all on 10?

Dumpy's Rusty Crazy Artwork

Amazingly crazy artwork from the guy that brought 1980's Kerrang! readers Pandora Peroxide and Marillion parodies:  http://img24.imageshack.us/i/dumpy51.jpg/  How many bands are made fun of here? So far I've spotted ZZ Top, Gong (in a flying teapot, no less), Pink Fairies (or is it Pink Floyd? Both used the flying pig motif) and Hawkwind. In case you haven't heard Dumpy's band:


It's pretty good & very British hard biker rock. Not bad if you're knockin' back a few Sam Smith's.
