Holy sweet Christ on a tricycle.
I just saw these guys headline two nights ago for an absent Queens of The Stone Age, and my Gawd, it was a beautiful thing. My ears are STILL ringing. Run, RUN and buy any and all three of their albums NOW.

Didn't hear it, but it sounds stupid.
Get a shorter name. By the time I finish saying it, I'm bored already.

You're just jealous that it's the best metal name EVER and it's wasted on a non-metal band.
Now zip it, call 'em "Trail of Dead" and do yourself a favor. Trust me on this.

I've been racking my brain trying to figure out how to describe these guys...and I just keep thinking LOUD. It's not thrash or metal or anything, and it's not punk or hardcore...it's actually like all of them thrown together with some actual singing on top of it. All I know is the live show kicked my ass. One minute, you've got a lead singer playing the guitar...then he and the drummer switch places, and now you've got a new lead singer 10 feet up on the speakers, howling at the people in the upper level. Instruments everywhere, amps being sonically fucked, drum kits toppling over...and yet the music goes on.
Might not be for everyone, but damn, it blew my mind.

ok. first off, i think this might be the best band name ever. sure, it's long, but as mojo said, they're affectionately known as "trail of dead" by fans and critics, etc.
next, i love this band. i was (still am, actually) very upset when i realized that i wasnt going to be able to go see them with queens of the stone age (who, by the way, rock, as well). trail of dead rocks out, they are loud, but there's something creative about what they do. it's hard to describe, but it's like they're not just loud for the sake of being loud, but because they have to be. and, while i've never seen them live, i've heard (as mojo attested) that they are rad as hell in concert.
i recommend that people check out this band... especially those who argue that there's no good music out today (*cough* heckler *cough*)... you've just gotta know where to look for it

See? Vixen gets it...why can't everyone else?
And get this...so I see them Friday night...well, a week from tomorrow, Queens of The Stone Age are making up their cancelled show, so Trail of Dead are playing AGAIN, and I can just use the same ticket. AND Grohl is drumming. Sweeeeeet...

A great band.
I thought QOTSA had a different drummer for the tour.

So did I, but given the fact that the Trail of Dead singer was saying that the Queens show was delayed because "Dave is sick", I'm hoping that here in DC we get him at least for that show...given that the club is almost in his backyard, that was the big rumor anyways...

THE TRAIL OF DEAD HAS RESUMED.
SUBMIT!!!
The non-metal men with the metal-est name around and the ugliest album covers known to man have returned this coming Tuesday with their new album "Worlds Apart."
These guys are still my favorite American band by far, and what I've heard of this new album sounds great. And they've even upped the ass-kicking/wankery level by adding a second drummer.
If you're curious, you can listen to most of the album HERE. I reccomend "The Rest Will Follow," "Caterwaul" and "Will You Smile Again." (http://www.nme.com/features/111136.htm)

I didn't know nobody then. Really, my mind was just being boggled by the attention alone.
But she DID have "Dark Vixen" in her sig pics and stuff! It was kinda a nickname...or something...I suck.
Even better, this thread is technically a duplicate thread, yet wasn't locked, since mikey and mine's evil regin of corrupt terror hadn't begun at that point.
AND, a thread title of THAT length isn't even close to being possible today.

...and I thought that Mojo was just getting special privledges with his MANLY long thread titles.
The band, I got all apeshit over them after I heard the EP and then the najor label Full Length and yes, they are good. I just really forgot about them until I saw them on Dave the other night. I have to go back and listen and see if the ol' flame rekindles.
