Credits go for Ilham, who started it here.

The game is simple: Create a haiku describing a metal album, then the others will try to guess.

For instance, I'm going to start with something simple, just so the game can begin smoothly:

Once it was ready
Suddenly not anymore
Maybe other time

Guess this, then the winner takes the turn (or passes forward if he wishes so)

Haha yay the thread is here!

Easy one, that Wintersun's ghost of an album. I guess I should write one, here:


Blue white and red blood
Monument of humidity,
My bones are cold now

Wintersun - Time/Time I/Time II/Time ∞

I'm not a poet:

Their first bad album
So they went to Andy Sneap
And said "again please."

Hey I was here first!

Shit. I'll fuck right off since I have no idea what yours is

Nah people will have to guess two. I have no idea what yours is, I can think of a dozen bands with bad albums that worked with Sneap .

Well, I can think of a few albums that make my bones cold, but that's not all that your haiku says

Ilham's is most likely French. I thought DsO's FAS for a moment but I can't see where the bone bit would fit in.

My guess for Zap's: St Anger?
Ilham's one is hard...
First sentence seems to be referring to the album cover. Plus either the name band or the album has something to do with a cold shower... I dunno
Can't think of a cover fitting the first sentence though

I immediately thought of DsO as well. But I'm not familiar enough with them.

Karla, nope. Is that Metallica's first bad album?!

That was Rick Rubin, though I also thought of them too heheh.

Haha maybe you think that the latest Arch Enemy is their first bad album?

And let me correct you guys, I was trying to be poetic, the cold bones is the effect it does on me. The first line refers directly to the band name, not a cover. Joe got something right, it's French.

I thought that was a reference to the French flag =P

It is an album that was initially received with mixed reception, the first one after a series of widely acclaimed albums. I would say more but I'd be giving it away.

It was a reference to the flag, + the band name .

BAN - TWWTG?

Oh, Work Which Transforms God?
Damn, ninja'd

Haha yeah. Go Karly while we find Zap's!

EDIT: I KNOW IT'S SEPTICFLESH

Ok, I'll give a hint.

Andy wasn't involved the first time around.

No, not Septicflesh

Ha. Zap got ninja'd twice on the same thread.
Well, let me get inspired to write the next one then (like i was going to write actual poetry)

Ah damn. Did Behemoth use Sneap? I am out of bad new albums ideas I just said Septic because I saw people disliking it. Who the hell keeps track of all Sneap albums? Zap you're annoying!

It's also not a new album. Need more hints?

Hahahahaha. Don't focus on Andy Sneap, read the rest of the haiku.

Yes. Write other haiku with more hints

Ooooh somehow I just thought it was new. Nah keep them for you for now, I'll let the ones who amass that kind of information find it

Here's another terrible haiku about the band themselves:

Two members didn't stay
The future is uncertain
Hope bassist's okay.

Is it Enemies of Reality by Nevermore?

We have a winner!

Nevermore - This Godless Endeavor? (seeing as they have a song called A Future Uncertain)

Piss. I should have got that as you were bitching about that album a few days ago. I was thrown off by the fact I like the album
