18:34 - mz I think King Crimson ( at least the two albums which I've heard from them) are metalish, especially on red.
18:31 - .starrk @Marcel: sure they do. They are pretty strongly psychedelic/acid rock, which is often quite similar to and difficult to distinguish from stoner rock.
18:25 - Marcel Hubregtse but a band such as Electric Moon doesn't have anythgin to do with stoner at all
18:18 - LICH my school is beside phil lynotts grave, i visit often :P
18:10 - Apothecary I'm just saying, it kinda goes along with the whole stoner doom thing (ALERT CORRECT ME NOW!), not to mention the line between stoner rock and stoner metal is about as sketchy as hard rock/heavy metal anyway.
18:10 - Fritillaria if we could find out who added King Crimson ,then we could ask him/her about it.
18:02 - Marcel Hubregtse that still has me puzzled as well hahaha
Katatonia have issued the following statement regarding the departure of two long time band members:
"Sad but true, today's announcement will be heavy hearted for us to bring to you. We can hereby confirm that the brothers Fredrik "North" Norrman and Mattias "Krypt" Norrman have decided to step off the ride and leave Katatonia. We respect their decision and would like to take the opportunity to collectively thank them both for all the years gone by, all the up's and down's we shared out on the road, in the studio and basically the memories and moments we shared of our 20's growing up together. Fredrik was with us for 15 years and Mattias for 10 years and we were lucky to have the same intact line-up going since 1999, but it's true what they say - all good things come to an end.
Swedish metallers Evergrey have issued the following update on their MySpace page:
"This month is getting embarrassing, for us and the people who we work with. We are sorry to announce, that for circumstances and reasons beyond our control, we are forced to cancel the scheduled Evergrey European Tour in April.
We would like to apologize to all the fans of both bands for the last minute decision and promise to work on getting new dates set up as soon as possible. Its always hard to let people down and both bands were extremely excited to play for all of their fans in Europe but sometimes things apparently dont go as planned. Which makes us in the band really frustrated and mad.
I hope all of you understand that we are a band nothing more. This is what we live off and for, to play and tour, therefore we can promise that we are more sorry than anyone. This might not ease the disappointment for some of you but as said it's out of our control and involves so much details that none of you would be wiser of knowing.
