Oh......just pirate then.

I respectfully disagree, sir.

Also downloading and listening is way less hassle and also faster than streaming with third world internet speeds.

Omg. Noooooooooooooooooo. JOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok guys we already mourned the death of Joe in the shoutbox. Time to move on, we need to find a replacement.

There is no one to replace Joe.

Mr doctor is the man for the job.

Well, this sucks. Hope he's alright irl... will always remember his defence of Grindmother's presence on MS, it was some of the most thought-out and beautiful argumentation I'd ever read online. R.I.P. you beautiful bastard

I was not aware of that, that discussion is good but here are top 3 discussions involving Jooe.

1. His epic multi-page quote war with LeKiwi on the Cronian - Erathems thread here.

2. The feud on LeKiwi's vocalist thread here. Again a multipage one.

3. His disagreement with Troy on the Botanist thread here.

I couldn't make it to work today, too upset about JOOE

The sudden departure of Joe could be related to his health issues. I think he was suffering from high Blood Pressure or ADHD or both which might have took a toll on him.

I usually only log in to this site a few times a year these days, decided to come on today and grab a band recommendation off of JOOE's usual best of year list or his huge list of favorite bands. this site has lost a titan.

I tried to recover some of his lost works through google cache (hopefully the links work). You can save the html files before they inevitably will fade into the cyber ether. RIP.

EDIT: Nope the links won't work by the looks but you can always go and search the titles and get the cache yourself, or if for what ever reason you can't and you're desperate to once more gaze upon these relics shoot me a pm and I can send you the html files.

Hey, thanks for this. If you go to a combination of...

and

....all but the 2017 list will be accessible. Seems like the 2017 one never got archived though.

(MS doesn't seem to like linking cached sites so will have to be copy and pasted)

No one deleted his account too? When did that happen?

There is no one to do the typical MS pun now...

Seriously though.. It has been a while since he deleted it

Looks like the MS curse or something.

Well, I'm finished with making music, for real this time, put my guitars up for sale on FB and so on... I created an album, people liked it, it didn't make me very happy or ultimately give me any sense of purpose in life, as expected. It was somewhat fun but no more than a placebo that temporarily distracted me from the fact that I am not a person, who enjoys being alive and doing things. It's time to move on and find a hobby that actually makes me happy, I am relatively young and still have time. Won't delete my MS account though, nnnneeevvveeeerrr.

No 2nd Dreadrealm album? That's a pity. The 1st one was a good album. Good luck with whatever you do next.
For a new hobby, try playing Elder scrolls Online and watch people (still) bitch about the American election on a fantasy rpg. ESO: it's like the rest of the internet, but you can through mudballs at folks.

I must be bipolar or something, but even though I fully intended to give up on music, I can't. Went and bought a new guitar yesterday and am already working on some new tracks (more prog, thrash and occasionally doom oriented metal this time). I guess this makes my previous comment look rather silly But yeah, I'm trying to keep it all light-hearted and not dream too much of success this time, just to keep from becoming too obsessed. Might share a track or two somewhere on MS too, when I get something worthwile done.

Also, since I can't seem to let go of my somewhat abusive relationship to music, I can't completely rule out a 2nd Drearealm album.

Looks like you're a quitter when it comes to quitting, then.
Just go the way of Wintersun with Dreadrealm. Promise a new album for 10 years and I'll still follow along for the mythical opus at the end of the never ending tunnel of dissapointments.

Oh my fuck, this is the best advice I've ever been given

Seriously though, as I said in my Thank You video to fans on YT, if I make a 2nd album, it will be better or I won't release it. It's that simple. As an artist, I'd rather die than fall into any of the common traps like thinking everything you do is gold or thinking that doing two almost identical albums is a safe bet. I believe Steven Wilson once said that an artist has to make music for themselves and not their fans, because that's what an entertainer does, but I'd say the best results - both commercially and artistically - are born when an artist embraces both roles and realizes that without feedback and fans, he or she would be inconsequential.

I just come back, the only and only Asian gook vietnamese here, dont worry, I will protectyou all lol xd, and...it's true metal way is only way,.now I come back to metal, I truly assure it.

How have you guys been ?

Sad Legend has introduced new album, as I hooverly seen in youtube. That band is quite good except they dont have lyrics in English for listener to read.

Greetings Metalstormers!

How have you all been? From the ashes of the last Bahamian MSer on this site (who hasn't posted in years), I have arisen with this new and improved account.

Here's to my first post.....Cheers Metallians.
